Hi! I'm doing some research around how 'gen Z is redefining the office dress code' for a piece I'm writing and would love to speak to some employers, young professionals & a psychologist who can comment on how technology has enabled individualism - DM me #journorequest

RIP Sinead O'Connor.
She took a Prince song and made it her own and turned it into one the biggest hits of a new decade.
Took on the church when people were too afraid and knew it could (and would) destroy her career.

Earth’s hottest recorded day was 16.92°C (62.46°F) on 24 July 2022
We’ve broken this record on each of 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21 and 22 July 2023, so far
It’s the hottest it’s been in 125,000 years. Now back to drilling for oil everyone

Damn they sound important and this worthy of more value for their labor

"As long as the world sees homeless people as less than human, suffering will continue. Whatever compassion may exist for homeless people, there is far more hate and disgust for them." Read more from Loki who is experiencing homelessness in NY:

Every Western democracy and everyone here on Twitter needs to see this tweet, and consider what it means, who Elon has become.
This is no own-the-libs shit. It's a direct call for the ending of American democracy by force, a violent coup against a sitting American President.

We're the good guys, which is why we get to do crimes, and if you try to stop us, we'll murder you with guns, because we are law-abiding, and so very good that announcing our intention to murder you with guns in response to prosecuting us for crimes can not be taken as a threat.

There's not too many folks I can discuss representation, media politics and Avatar the Last Airbender with in one sitting, but David's that guy.
My Bham journey started with the Griners. So very appreciative of all they've done for us.
Life doesn’t serve up many folks as good for your soul as @etbowser. Next month will mark 14 YEARS (!) of friendship, during which we’ve worked together, podcasted together, nerded out nonstop together and shared so many parts of our unpredictable life journeys. Love this guy.

Appalling lack of media coverage of this. 1 in 4 women in the US has been physically assaulted by intimate partners, and 3 are killed every day. Rates of sexual coercion and violence are climbing. All as anti-abortion legislation increases risk. Important work. TY @WhiteHouseGPC
The Biden-Harris Administration is proud to announce the launch of the first-ever U.S. National Plan to End Gender-Based Violence, a critical roadmap to guide the Federal government’s future efforts to address and prevent GBV. 1/2

Should be great. No concerns at all.

If I fired 90% of my staff before the conference call and bragged about how good I am at doing conference calls for months, I probably would be pretty embarrassed.
