The most incredible sight in the #universe (according to me, anyway). #eclipse #totality @… instagram.com/p/BYEGf_gHZC_/
Coming briefly out of Twitter retirement just to say, Go ECCCO!! 🚀🛰️☀️🙌🎉🍾

Delayed by missing crew on our rebooked flight. No info in the airport. No follow-up by @united. I suppose they don’t monitor Twitter mentions, probably because they have laid off everybody in customer service or something. They must’ve, because their service is nonexistent.
And of course now @united sent our bag on without us, stranding us needlessly without clothes and many other necessities, just to make things even more annoying. It’s hard to imagine a worse top to bottom customer service experience than we had last night and today.

Finally, my daughter got so upset about this that she threw up. With all of our clothes headed to Denver. So she has nothing to change into. So thank you very much for turning a bad night into a horrible one, @united. You guys are the absolute worst!

The level of incompetence and failed communication by @united tonight was absolutely unbelievable and unacceptable. They owe many, many people both a significant apology and compensation.

So turns out @united said the flight is back on… after dozens of people were out of the secure area. The @TSA checkpoint closed, stranding many people, even splitting up families. This is the worst airline experience I’ve ever had.
Now I’m the airport they are telling us the flight is cancelled, but on the @united website it says it is going. Wtf? How can the communication be so totally screwed? What a joke!
One @united baggage agent, the only United employee we could find anywhere in this godforsaken airport, is helping us. At a minimum, there are a few awesome people out there who will help somebody in need.

So @united just gave us some food vouchers for our massively delayed flight, but literally every store and restaurant in the airport is closed. Thanks for the meaningless gesture!! 🤣🤣🤣

I think I’m finally leaving this flaming pile of garbage and moving over to bsky.app. Who is already there? Who’s coming with me?
This work has been a long time coming. So glad it is finally out! #middlecorona

Significant flooding now as severe hailstorm continues in Boulder. #cowx
@NWSBoulder Hail now accumulating to depth of 1-2 inches in downtown Boulder. Largest stones estimated sightly greater than 1 inch diameter but very large volume of smaller stones up to half inch. #COwx
In a meeting that presented itself as a panel discussion but has delivered 82 minutes of endless bullet-list talks with no questions — leaving 8 minutes for discussion.🤦♂️🤣😭
Freakin’ brilliant reporting from @EscapeCycling. Glad to see the new best cycling website both has a sense of humor and does not pull punches.
“A lengthy winless streak descended, stretching until his retirement in early 2011.” 🤣🤣🤣

It’s such a wonder that these “unspeakable tragedies” keep happening in a state so totally awash in guns. Where are all the good guys with guns who they promised would save us? washingtonpost.com/nation/20…
