Exaggerated relief map of the US. Denver happens just before all the mountains start. It's a mile-high city because of the steady incline of the Great Plains as they approach the Rockies. [by @cstats1] https://t.co/KKHiCRERzO — PolitiTweet.org

Totally agree. I was sure when he resurfaced he’d continue to be the voice of reason. Surprised and disappointed to have been so wrong. The question is, did he become lame? Or was he always lame and I was too tribally aligned with him back in the Bush days to notice? — PolitiTweet.org

Look there's an edit button. And you can't do anything sneaky because people can view edit history. It shows how many likes and retweets each version got—so if a tweet goes viral and then you edit it to change its meaning, it'll be very obvious to everyone. Very well thought out! — PolitiTweet.org

A liberal country is a brick wall—bricks are the laws, mortar is liberal norms. Bricks: election laws Mortar: tradition of election loser accepting results Bricks: 1st Am. Mortar: free speech culture The US wall is shaky not bc it lost bricks but bc the mortar has withered. — PolitiTweet.org

Meanwhile, at 472 meters, Central Park Tower is still 356 meters—almost an entire Empire State Building—shorter than the Burj Khalifa. Why did the US stop being rad with skyscrapers? https://t.co/tHxlwIz84P — PolitiTweet.org

Central Park Tower is the world's tallest residential building and its penthouse is the world's highest residence. On the market for $250M if anyone's interested. https://t.co/dnCWmKiuQI — PolitiTweet.org

Spires are bullshit, so Central Park Tower is the tallest building in the US by a pretty big margin. https://t.co/Z5r3cm3IHu — PolitiTweet.org
