Thinking of starting a Twitter series where I share anonymous daily horror stories from Start Up Founders so that each of us realizes we are in similar sh*t storms. Thoughts?

When Gary Neville is going “oh no” at a Liverpool game, you know something is up 😂

The most worrying thing about today’s game is that absolutely nothing will be done about that refereeing performance and there is absolutely nothing to stop it happening again next week. Referees are choosing results of games. I don’t know how much more of it I can watch.

Liverpool have been absolutely shafted by the officials today, and I'm saying that as a Man United fan that despises them.
It is beyond embarrassing, both on-field and VAR.
Simon Hooper, you should be ashamed. Utterly horrific refereeing. And your second howler of the season and it’s not even October. Weak refereeing and VAR are making it very hard to watch the Premier League this season.

I’m a mother of six, and a Mormon. I have a good understanding of arguments surrounding abortion, religious and otherwise. I've been listening to men grandstand about women's reproductive rights, and I'm convinced men actually have zero interest in stopping abortion. Here's why…

I'm so proud of @irishem333!
When we were working on her TEDxPortland talk, the story of how she started WILDFANG was the basis for her idea that you have to surround yourself with "Yeah maybe" people not "Yeah right" people. Like yeah right, you're goin…lnkd.in/gtY9e4f8

Tina Turner was raw. She was powerful. She was unstoppable. And she was unapologetically herself—speaking and singing her truth through joy and pain; triumph and tragedy. Today we join fans around the world in honoring the Queen of Rock and Roll, and a star whose light will never fade.
One of the world’s most stunning races ☘️ 🏃🏻♀️ who’s up for a wee trip back for this? m.youtube.com/watch?v=jWguFS…

Maybe you’re not a runner…but this is a beautiful bit of the world. And if you are (or like me - a shuffling puffer) I highly recommend the Antrim cost for a wee jog/awesome half marathon. Watch the vid: you’ll see what I mean! youtu.be/jWguFSW9Zls

Six years ago I stood in front of 6,000 people in #PDX to tell them how important "cheating" was to support local #smallbiz. With this being #SmallBusinessWeek I thought this would be a good time to remind folks. @TEDTalks @TEDxPortland #community

Wow @RukaiyahAdams just reframed what's possible for Black kids everywhere, especially ones in NE #Portland. While many have been counting #PDX out, she is going all in. This is only the beginning. @AlbinaVisionPDX
