How did a DOG FOOD commercial get me all up in my feels?!


This is truly stunning! 🤩

Here's a timelapse video of last night's #crescentmoon setting behind Space Needle in #Seattle. The still I posted yesterday is one from this sequence. Planned with @photopills and shot with Sony A7R4, Sony 200-600mm lens at 600mm, f/6.3, ISO 1250, 1/8 sec.



Anyone else over here eagerly waiting for @MontereyAq Halloween themed content? No. Just me? 👻🎃


Challenge accepted. 😎📚

Limited time offer: If this gets 100k retweets by Friday, we’ll give everyone a 20% off their in-store purchase next weekend. A cynical ploy? Perhaps. But frankly I don’t think you can do it anyway.

As U.S. Embassy's sole consular officer in #SouthSudan 2013-2014, I've been at the airport running #evacuations out of a country at war. Risk & scale differed from #Afghanistan, but some challenges on the ground were similar. A thread to share things I learned on the ground. 1/17


Lol, wut? 🤯

THIS is not rain, not ground clutter (the radar beam picking up objects close the radar site --which is in Loudoun County).... the Hydrometeor Classification algorithm identifies this as biological in nature..so likely CICADAS being picked up by the radar beam...

.@capitalweather: We’re going to get 4-8” of snow over the next two days... Me: I guess no outside gym class (because DC) The rower I bought in August and have hardly used:


Extended stay-at-home orders? No sweat! I just learned that @levarburton has a podcast...of him reading. I now have everything I need to get by. 🤩 #bydhttmwfi levarburtonpodcast.com/levarburtonpod…

A good guide for today and all days:

Guide to upsetting election stories: 1. Wait before sharing. 2. People want to manipulate you. 3. What's the source? 4. Is it a news org with editors? 5. Looks big on Twitter, but is it just a local incident? 6. Repeat #1. Anything truly important will still be there in an hour.



100% my people! 😂

Physically impossible to just leave



There’s nothing like the smell of rain right before a storm. ⛈ And turning your plate upside down when you throw it away is just polite! ☺️

Listing the top 3 midwesterner talents: 1. ability to smell a storm before it comes is our sixth sense 2. driving miles to your destination with a completely frosted windshield 3. apologizing uncontrollably to everything. it’s a curse and a blessing. we’re sorry. ope



How you know you’ve spent your career living overseas: when the power goes out and you wonder why the generator hasn’t kicked on yet. Thanks @DominionEnergy for making me wonder just when I’ll have power again! 🙄😑

More than a year ago, I was asked to do the impossible. Help build an algorithm that could tease out what statehouse bills were created from model legislation (ie copy-paste legislation). Along with a terrific team @USATODAY and @azcentral We did it. Here’s how. (THREAD)
