How many times do you rewrite an email before you send it?
I am experiencing the dissipating #Ida and it is glorious: shedding rain, downpour, lightning, claps of thunder, a tornado watch and flash flood watches. Kinda want to go up to the roof and watch. I love extreme weather! #desertcreature
Yikes, down the street... https://twitter.com/conorclancy/status/1433411353872584728
Gonna go on a walkabout after my calls. Never been in a flooded city before. https://twitter.com/RyMcCarthy76/status/1433424396815945730
😂😂😂 so true https://twitter.com/bengman84/status/1433437210804727813

@tomwiththeweath You should be fine at the airport.
I need to listen to more @lizzo. She always lifts my mood, especially needed in these globally challenging times. Also damn @iamcardib, you amazing in RUMORS! Thank you Queens!
Wait, is that a cowbell? (Listening to Jamiroquoi on these great speakers.) #morecowbell
@SamLoci OMG precious! 💖🏋️♀️
I'm not worried about the Texas abortion law. Yes, it will cause a lot of pain & suffering, AND it will eventually be overturned. Might take 10 or 50 years. When shit like this happens my mantra is Ceaușescu. Republicans gonna have to eat their unintended consequences.
Also, gotta realize this is the result of 10 or 50 years of repressive Republican efforts. So expect the same amount of effort to counterbalance.
@ninavizz 100%. That suffering will be real. So will the abuse the forced to be born children will endure. The result of that suffering will be vengeance and eventually justice.
@the_real_Twan Me too. Me too.
@geminica I am so so sorry. That is really tough. I'm sorry if my comment came off as insensitive.
@geminica Exactly that tension. 💗
@RandallGrahm May I suggest meditation, melatonin, exercise for exhaustion, limited wine in the evenings (I know impossible!), and/or addressing the root of whatever is waking you up. I also recommend embracing naps. 😴
I'm at INBOX ZERO on all three of my main inboxes. Don't remember last time that happened. Will savor this moment & see what the universe has in store for me.
@mprorock yes, you sure did!
@voretaq7 I'm taking it as a compliment to embracing uncertainty and being open to all possibilities, including ones I can't even imagine!
@fatemehx2 @salesforce Congrats! I look forward to seeing you influence the world in so many positive ways!
And just like that, the rains come. Desert creature exclaims like an alien from another planet. Musty house smell from the covered porch of a New England house.

@AlishaBhagat May I invite you to play this GenX therapy song: https://youtu.be/Z0GFRcFm-aY. Chase it with Nirvana if needed & repeat. (I realize this is very US GenX centric advice but it's how I've coped living through the "end of the world as I know it" for 3+ decades.)
Listened to a bunch of voicemails from dead people this morning. It was actually very inspirational to hear their voices.
Polishing the tough questions I will ask @aniltj @trbouma & Olivier Bringer about Verifiable Credentials & global interoperability at our panel on Wednesday as part of SVIP's Demo Week. You can attend by registering here: https://www.dhs.gov/science-and-technology/svip-demo-week
How is that dress remotely Bene Gesserit inspired? I am a bit offended. (And I generally love Iris’ creations.) ps no bene gesserit would be caught dead w that sword even if she was skilled in its use.

Fascinating, especially if you read between the lines. Hindsight creates a story that unfolded much differently. Was it intentional or incompetence/miscommunication? We'll never know. How many systems do you circumnavigate in your job? How many norms go against the stated regs? https://twitter.com/ImposeCost/status/1437880608886243334
Curious how interoperable open standards for verifiable credentials and decentralized identifiers would globally work? Tune in today, free to register: https://www.dhs.gov/science-and-technology/svip-demo-week
I'll be moderating the panel on Choice and Global Interoperability at 3pm ET / Noon PT today, same link to register.
So happy to wake up to the news. California forever! Love my state, our lands, the possibilities & dreams of the future! You can do anything in California! 💖💖💖 https://twitter.com/Cruftbox/status/1438139377289363459
This was a lot of fun to moderate! I had more questions I wanted to ask. Great answers, & it's really inspirational to see nations working together with eyes wide open using technology standards. https://twitter.com/darrello/status/1438218159107018762
@ImposeCost @RickGivens Terrain looks familiar. I can anticipate the windrows rattling from across the basin.

Everyone wants to understanding current & future security vulnerabilities in order to protect yourself/your networks & anticipate new attacks. You'll be ahead of everyone else after you read Shifting Paradigms, which introduces 17 variables to consider: https://www.researchgate.net/publication/330542765_Shifting_Paradigms_Using_Strategic_Foresight_to_Plan_for_Security_Evolution
Additionally, this paper includes 10 cleverly named scenarios & 11 surprising new paradigms which, even though they were written 3 years ago, may sound similar to some things in our world today.
ps. I will never say that "I predicted that." Predictions are bullshit. I do my research, I do my analysis, I work my foresight process. Of course it works. It's not magic. It's not a prediction. Its art and science applied equally.
This is the real war these days. It's gonna be a long & won't end until we change our economic incentives: https://www.latimes.com/california/story/2021-09-16/sequoia-giant-forest-trees-prepped-knp-complex-fire

@dgwbirch *waves from the other coast*
So my todo list is basically empty (had a productive day) & I'm at inbox zero on 2 of 3 inboxes. And I gave up writing my book about the future bc who needs another book telling you to just surrender to uncertainty? Really curious what will emerge from this emptiness...
@NikolasFuturist @cynixy IMO, it's overrated & overly individualistic. We don't need another hero, see Tina Turner's song on repeat. What we need is COLLABORATION, not heros.
RT @SamKap: My love language is removing tracking parts from URLs before sharing them.
TFW you find a random text file with Bill Murray's 800 number because you were going to invite him to a particularly appropriate cacophony event (that hasn't happened yet) in LA years ago. So many uncompleted ideas in my file system.
@fatemehx2 Pilates jump board.
@fatemehx2 @abitidiomatic You can do reformer based pilates, but you should take pilates classes first. There are a lot of mat based pilates classes, and some free ones some friends take. Highly recommend Pilates. Also lots of good pilates classes on Amazon Prime.
@mitchbetts @nberpubs But why? I am more curious the reasons why people started new business... that's way more nuanced.
