With Twitter's change in ownership last week, I'm probably in the clear to talk about the most unethical thing I was asked to build while working at Twitter. 🧵

Very excited for this trial. While hours worked is still a tricky and terrible way to translate value, this (hopefully) continues the conversation on more effective work and strategies on how to work across a swathe of industries.

Open Letter to @arcadefire: I’ve never felt such a roller coaster of pure joy and absolute devastation until I found out my most favorite band of all damn time was magically secretly announced for #Coachella W1, but not W2. Please come back for W2, YOU COMPLETE ME.
On a day for the history books, @TheAmandaGorman delivered a poem that more than met the moment. Young people like her are proof that "there is always light, if only we're brave enough to see it; if only we're brave enough to be it."

If anyone had a right to question whether our democracy was worth redeeming, it was Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Because in the face of billy clubs and lynchings, poll taxes and literacy tests, he never gave in to violence, never waved a traitorous flag or gave up on our country.

I'm super excited to announce that I'm joining @TheAthletic's great staff of NHL writers. Starting today, I'll be covering the Colorado Avalanche. Thank you to everyone who has helped me take this step in my career, and thank you all for reading my work. theathletic.com/2296771/2021…

Nobody should have to wait 11 hours to vote, but we’re all grateful that you—and all those in line with you—stuck it out. Keep making your voices heard, everybody. Our democracy depends on it.
Now at 11hrs in line but we are next! A long journey but wouldn’t be anywhere else! Please vote everyone!

This captures a complex and very important subject in a mere 45 minutes and is for anyone, not just for the music theory interested - youtu.be/Kr3quGh7pJA "Institutional racism is a bitch and music theory plays a part of it."

Would be cool if the NYT actually interviewed “the rest of oregon”... not just suburbs of Portland? This is irresponsible journalism. What’s worse is that NYT actually has local reporters on the ground who could have written an accurate about this “divide”, like @ByMikeBaker.
“Portland is an island in Oregon,” said the mayor of a more conservative town about 30 miles southeast of the city. “We are scared to death that what’s happening in Portland will ever come out to where we live.” nyti.ms/3i50Rfx

I realize the NHL probably feels like they're being put in an impossible situation here. Maybe they are. But in such a big moment, some gestures will feel so small that you wonder if they should be skipped altogether.
In the wake of the Jacob Blake shooting, the NHL will hold a moment of reflection before tonight's Tampa/Boston game in Toronto and tonight's Colorado/Dallas game in Edmonton.
