Ok, I've held my powder long enough, I am now going to come out SWANGING. Let me do a thread on what has been irking the hell out of me the last few weeks. Between the GA Senate race and Barack Obama, I've been REALLY ANGRY about how the Black church is being talked about.

Can someone tell me why former President and First Lady Barack and Michelle Obama keep trying to dunk on Jeremiah Wright in their books? I mean damn, they treat the republicans and Tea Partiers who called them apes better. YES I SAID IT.
It has really really soured me on both of them. The man had a stroke. Yes, he did some things that didn't play well during the campaign but that sermon about God Damn America was taken out of context. And the same thing is happening to Rafael Warnock.
This vilification of Warnock and Wright is about taking the teeth out of the black church's prophetic tradition of speaking truth to racist power in America. Who knew that Loeffler and Obama would be on the same side to quench that message?
Folks, the problem is that politicians love the Black church for Photo ops, quenching unrest, and singing. When the Prophets start speaking about SIN, they get to criticizing scripture and pastor's characters. This is a Republican and Democrat practice.
I have been absolutely disgusted with Obama on this, truly. I mean, he has much kinder words for republicans than Jeremiah Wright, who baptized his kids and helped him in Chicago.
I expect this ish from Kelly Loeffler, who is a Republican millionaire who will do ANYTHING to win. Her faith is in the KKK and capitalism.
So Georgia please, send this woman back to her ugly MCMANSION where she belongs. And as for Obama....
I'm not spending one red cent on any book he writes, volume one or two. Not only did he quench the NBA strike, he had time to kick a man in a wheelchair while kissing the asses of the people who hated his guts. Miss me with that mess. #fin

"End of Sturgeon?"

Frankly, an appropriate response from @NicolaSturgeon might be to quote the infamous Mark Twain response to an erroneous 'obituary' known to all...

"The reports of my demise are greatly exaggerated."

https://t.co/Ce1xVVISR2

More accurately, the media have quoted:

"Ms Sturgeon said she had a “real job to do” and was focused on guiding Scotland through the Covid-19 pandemic."

It's very reassuring to hear that @scotgov and @ScotGovFM have prioritised safeguarding lives and Scotland, above all else.

"I’ll leave others to play games or politics. I have got a real job to do and people can decide themselves whether I am doing it well or not, but I am absolutely 100 per cent focused on leading this country through a pandemic."

💯% 😀👍

Making her priorities crystal clear!

“That’s what I’ve done since this time last year and it’s what I’m going to continue to do for absolutely as long as necessary.”

And again, making it absolutely crystal clear!

MAKE PRODUCTS.

Courtesy of @edbrisson's wonderful thread on breaking into comics –
https://t.co/TgNblNSCBj – here is why the same applies to Product Management, too.


There is no better way of learning the craft of product, or proving your potential to employers, than just doing it.

You do not need anybody's permission. We don't have diplomas, nor doctorates. We can barely agree on a single standard of what a Product Manager is supposed to do.

But – there is at least one blindingly obvious industry consensus – a Product Manager makes Products.

And they don't need to be kept at the exact right temperature, given endless resource, or carefully protected in order to do this.

They find their own way.
Oh my Goodness!!!

I might have a panic attack due to excitement!!

Read this thread to the end...I just had an epiphany and my mind is blown. Actually, more than blown. More like OBLITERATED! This is the thing! This is the thing that will blow the entire thing out of the water!


Has this man been concealing his true identity?

Is this man a supposed 'dead' Seal Team Six soldier?

Witness protection to be kept safe until the right moment when all will be revealed?!

Who ELSE is alive that may have faked their death/gone into witness protection?


Were "golden tickets" inside the envelopes??


Are these "golden tickets" going to lead to their ultimate undoing?

Review crumbs on the board re: 'gold'.
