The main problem with Twitter, IMO, is that its entire interaction model incentivizes hot takes and mass dogpiles.
Figure out how you want people to interact before you build it.

So much thinking happens in
space between notes
Timing lost on thought
so search for harmony which
dwells within
silence as tones bounce on

I remember when my Cincinnati neighbor told me the war in Afghanistan had started, as I passing by walking my dog, way back in Oct 2001.
I also remember wondering what would happen in Pakistan, which was likely where ObL was hiding.
I still wonder what will happen in Pakistan.

I was utterly blown away by #FreeGuy. There were only a handful of other folks in the theater, but we were all laughing our asses off (and maybe crying in a couple spots!). I can't wait to watch this again. One of the best movies I've seen in *years*!

Just a few weeks away from college football, y’all. Time for a few quick hits on my teams.
