Actual note darker: "we don't believe the financial results themselves mean anything; future guidance will be non-existent or non-believable... we believe the reported revenue/earnings will over-state actual underlying demand.. We believe many/most lost subs will not come back." — PolitiTweet.org

@cwarzel @cjane87 Maybe worse. Mass shootings affect a wide cross section of society, so people who die are more likely to “look like us.” Right now deaths are clustered (black/brown, poor, elderly) so easier for many people to ignore/look away/not see. — PolitiTweet.org

@sherman4949 @chrissyfarr Nicely done. One thing I would add, bc I think about it every day: How will the kids, their teachers and administrators get to school? Some can use walk or use cars but trying to imagine school busses in a pandemic is difficult. Subways... — PolitiTweet.org

Love love love the soundtrack. And vividly remember the giant disconnect between the golden era of 90s hip hop and Official NBA Culture that tried to pretend it didn’t exist. — PolitiTweet.org

Thing I accidentally discovered: You can buy a used iPad, from somewhere that isn’t Apple (I have been having good luck with Amazon’s “renewed” program) and Apple will still give you a year of Apple TV+ for free. You don’t even have to ask for it. #makeituponvolume — PolitiTweet.org

@web Yes, and. I mean, that's a whole other, complicated, discussion. And a *lot* of this is socio-economic but not all of it - a huge swath of the deaths are older people that are segregated from mainstream in different ways. — PolitiTweet.org

Peter Kafka @pkafka

It makes grisly sense that we have acclimated to 2,000 people dying each day from the disease, because humans acclimate. But it’s also because the deaths aren’t distributed evenly; they are clumped in specific communities. Easier to acclimate when you don’t see it. — PolitiTweet.org

@jeffersongraham @ecammtweets definitely local audio, when/if you can get them to do it, and you or someone you work with can work with that file. voice memo is good, especially if they hold the phone near their head. quicktime on a macbook is ok, too. — PolitiTweet.org
