I was given the opportunity to speak at a lunch in Davos today... On the panel was Bono, Christiana Figueres, Jane Goodall, Will.i.am and Kengo Sakurada. #wef

It takes deep courage to go to Davos and tell the masters-of-the-universe *to their faces* that they knowingly torched the planet in order get filthy rich. Greta Thunberg did that. She's 15.

Heads up NYC: Hazel is 9, happy, perfectly mannered, loves toys, walks happily, ignores other dogs - and as Animal Care Centers of NYC notes, is “breaking down” after 47 days in the shelter. Could you be her Biped? If so: [email protected] If not PLEASE RT nycacc.org/adopt/hazel-50…

Why can’t Trump remember anyone’s name??? 🤔

I’m an Engineer who loves America. I just figured something out I want to talk about it. Let's talk about weaponized bots, algorithm exploitation, countermeasures, and counter-countermeasures. <A MEGATHREAD>

Today, I saw a Korean woman speaking Spanish to one of her Mexican employees. Then, I saw a Muslim woman in a head scarf speaking what Spanish she knew to a guy who then spoke what Urdu he knew. This is the future America that people are afraid of?

After I posted this thread, I received a long DM from someone who works as a nurse in the children’s ward of a border-state hospital. I have received permission to share that DM with you, anonymized for the nurse’s protection.

Reminder: the best way to avoid MAGA tourists in DC this holiday weekend is to enter a bookstore.

I've been listening to the Beyoncé Lion King songs and they leave me with just one question: Why didn't they rewrite it so Beyoncé was the lead? I mean she's already a queen and we know that the lionesses really lead the pride.

My friend Luke Tracy 🗽 thought this insane wreath placement was okay.

I'm voting for Elizabeth Warren in the Democratic Primary.

If you can, please chip in to help win the GA senate runoffs so that Biden can actually pass legislation. And if you are able, please help with phone and text banking for GOTV campaigns. Thanks! secure.actblue.com/donate/aoc-soc…
