LIVE, 10am PT: Tune in as @cephhead settles the always intense, far-ranging, extra-squishy debate with "Earth's Top-10 Coolest Cephalopods—Period!" On YouTube bit.ly/2QadIAX & Facebook bit.ly/327pfXq; counter-ceph arguments welcome. 🐙

"I thought her voice was an important voice, but I know nothing about her," President Trump says of the video he retweeted where a woman claims masks don't work & there's a cure for Covid-19. Instead of explaining the contradiction given he's endorsed masks, Trump left the room.

Excited to announce my new book! The Physics of Climate Change. Hardcover, ebook, & audiobook pub date TBD. Corporate giant publishers currently in disarray due to pandemic. But topic is so important that I hope, with your support, this can have an impact anyway. Stay tuned!

I have no idea who did this, but if you know, find them and tag them. One of the best things I’ve seen on this app this week

After cops tackled & arrested me, & after I identified myself as a journalist, they refused to give me my phone, leaving it on the street. Later that night another journalist found my phone. Turned out it was recording while cops pressed my head into the concrete & cursed at me
While covering anti-racist protests, police arrested HuffPost reporter Christopher Mathias even though he showed off his press pass.

I have held off using the f word for three and a half years, but there is no longer any honest alternative. Trump is a fascist, and he is promoting fascism in America.

"The president seems to think dominating Black people, dominating peaceful protestors is law and order. It's not. He calls them thugs? Who is the thug here? Hiding in a bunker? Hiding behind a suit? Who is the thug?" Anderson Cooper has HAD IT.

1/ The conversation between my sons was so mundane. First they talked about Tiktok. Then about our upcoming vacation. It sounded so easy. I was glad. Son 1: “Hey mom? Is it okay if we rent bikes down there?” Me: *typing* “Sure.” Son 2: “Yes sirrrr!” *high fives brother*

Did zoom lecture last night. Except for difficult getting audible feedback form the audience, it seems like it went well. The screen sharing was easy, and we tested my also signing in with my phone so I could do a real time tour of the SHL. Cool. Thanks @Prattreef

@AmericanAirlines It’s great that you decided my carryon was too big to go on the plane with me. It was awful nice of you to let those other bigger bags go on while you were gate checking mine.
