My colleague, @drewharwell, was suspended by Twitter Thursday night for factual tweets. As of a few hours ago, Twitter was demanding that he delete the (also factual) tweet below if he wants to be reinstated.

TikTok just suspended this video because of mass reporting claiming I violated the community guidelines. Seriously?! Man, they don’t want this point out there.
Stop separating abortion rights from the economy.

Do I have this right? Shell raked in $9.45 billion in profits last quarter and has announced $4 billion in stock buybacks, but American consumers are supposed to blame government spending for inflation?

We Twitter alumni throw words like “legendary” around a lot. There’s a lot of love. And so many great people. But there’s one person whose intellect, fortitude, moral compass, and dedication truly stands out. And that’s my dear friend @vijaya. Hats off to a legendary 11+ years.

There will be stories about people not getting critical things, about food supply rotting, etc. Remind yourself that it’s not the WORKERS but the BOSSES who have the ability to make this right. Give people time off, breaks, enough crew to operate safely.

The shift to WFH is the largest shock to labor markets in decades. Pre-pandemic WFH was trending towards 5% of days by 2022. Now WFH is now stabilizing at 30%, a 6-fold jump. In America alone this is saving about 200 million hours and 6 billion miles of commuting a week.

Today at @cranebeachmass my 9-year-old daughter nearly drowned while I was watching her, in full view of two life guard stations, on an uncrowded and overcast day. Drowning doesn’t look like drowning, and I hope a lot of people read this and remember the signs. 🧵 – at Malden, MA

12.5 hrs after posting (mostly overnight) and 22,487 people have now clicked through to make sure they've gotten all the RATs they're owed. More people have RTed this thread than have ever followed me. Imagine where we could be re COVID if they'd properly managed this program.
If the WH and Congress would like to know how desperately we need them to take action for COVID, they might consider that my relatively small account posted this thread at 9:30 on a Saturday night and—just 6.5 hrs later—10,394 people have gone directly from it to check for tests.

Political correctness. Wokeness. Quiet quitting. Social justice warriors. So much opportunity to interrogate where these terms come from and why the seem to spring suddenly fully formed into public discourse.
