Instead of “Black Tuesday” I think “Trump Tuesday” has a better ring to it. He does like to name things after himself.

It takes a lot to make me leave home during SXSW. But an @AlaskaAir event will do the trick.

This is my entire job. Not for the government. Different. But most people do not understand data or basic math and I have to tell them they are wrong. Every day.
Replying to @electricfutures
And more importantly, they are just getting it *wrong*, with alarming consistency. These numbers are erroneous. This "select group of geniuses" has not double checked even the LARGEST items accounting for the bulk of their claimed savings. This is a sad, pathetic farce @elonmusk

So, @Marriott features the Four Seasons on its app when advertising Austin even though the W just finished a major renovation and arguably has a more iconic location?

If I had to choose between first class on BRITISH AIRWAYS or SOUTHWEST AIRLINES on a short haul flight, it’d still be WN. – at Austin, TX

Just returned from four nights and my first trip to Disney World. I’ll probably never go back unless my son begs me. Disneyland is so much better. – at Austin, TX

Austin now ranks 110 on list of “Worst Places to Live in the USA”. Now it’s not so bad right? – at Austin, TX

So I’m taking my son (4 in June) to Disney World by myself next weekend. I had low expectations to start but only now is it sinking in how badly this could go. A lot of it comes down to how overwhelming the Genie+ and restaurant reservations are given an unpredictable toddler. – at Austin, TX

Also, I would like to point out how utterly awful the Disney website and app are. This tech feels 5 years old. They’re still using “go.com”. I’m old enough to remember when Disney bought that from another company during the dot com boom. – at Austin, TX

I feel like we teach our children from a young age not to throw our garbage on the streets, and then NY just turns around and says, “go ahead!” Next step is to charge market rates for street parking. If there are no empty spaces, the price isn’t high enough. – at Austin, TX
New York is becoming a real city! New York is becoming a real city! 🥳🎉🥳

It’s fun to live in a neighborhood right under the flight path.

I’d give anything for a few extra years with my dad, but boy does this resonate. When he passed, I was able to use the inheritance to do so much good for my own son. Might not have even tried for kids in the first place without it. – at Austin, TX
Replying to @AdamSinger
If you want to help birth rates you'll plead with wealthy boomers hoarding $ for no reason that will go to the kids long after necessary and it's mostly devalued by the fed anyway. More $ at 30 is life changing, esp with things being so hard now. At 60 what's the point?
