In yet another of one of those seemingly bewildering passage of time things, @DavidGray’s “Please Forgive Me” is 20 years old. On a recent road trip, I purchased “White Ladder” through iTunes and it is everything I remember it to be. https://t.co/SinxQjDP03

Hey, @PressSec! Why is Trump in quotes? https://t.co/84oD6mAfuQ

“In any case, only about 1 percent of the United States federal budget goes to foreign aid — and about 40 percent of that is considered security assistance, rather than economic or humanitarian aid.” https://t.co/YcTrJdZcPS

*while looking at a family photograph* “It’s a disgrace what’s happening in our country,” Mr. Trump added. “A lot of people should be ashamed of themselves, and much worse than that.” https://t.co/rDHuRHhnmv

That #memo is something. Are they claiming that regardless of the veracity of the information, it is fruit from a poisonous tree? Or: “We don’t care about the outcome of the FISA warrant, as much as we care about the optics of the warrant being renewed four times.”

Listening to @crooked_friends with @anamariecox & @TheRickWilson this morning and thought, when this is over, I want to see them in a road trip program where they get BBQ & matching tattoos.

Hey @Apple, @AppleSupport, my 4th Gen #AppleTV’s remote was affected by a bug in the update. A quick Googling indicates this is a known issue. Any idea when a patch will be issued to address this problem? Thanks.

Aspirational liberalism and whiteness as performance in @Portlandia on @NPRItsBeenAMin with @samsanders & @Carrie_Rachel. It is amazing. (Crumbs for @librarypants, @themckern, & @paigethesage.) https://t.co/Vy4nJ579x2

So this is misleading... It is not the app, nor the company that makes the app, that is responsible for people uploading their routes. When I, little ol’ me, decide that I do not want my routes public, I don’t upload them. Agency, folks. https://t.co/WNrYYnZ2KB

No, Apple Maps, when I type IKEA into your search field, I do not want Ike’s Garage. Ike’s Garage is probably great but I am assuming their selection of couches is meager.
