It is considered polite to use an honorific when addressing a Verified Twitter User but sadly many of you fail to follow these norms. https://t.co/ZM23r4PXJ8

Good question from @tylercowen. We have Sir, Doctor, Professor etc.
But are there any recent institutions which have created honorifics? https://t.co/rnqttweIbz

Steelworkers union says that, almost 2 years after sub-contracted Google Pittsburgh staff voted to unionize & 9 months after NLRB issued a union-busting complaint against their employer HCL, they’ve reached a tentative union contract deal, including “meaningful wage increases.”

New: Sub-contracted Google staff in Pittsburgh have voted 49-to-24 to join the @Steelworkers union. The union's ambitions don't end there:“I would hope, if direct Google employees should consider union organizing, that they would consider the Steelworkers” https://t.co/QPVDzwGOry

This is all good. The winged G logo is low key pretty rad, and people conditioned to reflexively dunk on all new designs, hats, and uniforms are wrong this time.

For those whose mind goes immediately to the Marvel movies, you should understand that the new Cleveland team name actually references the city’s famous Art Deco statues commemorating the founders of the Green Lantern Corps.

A truly iconic sports team name should reflect a deep engagement with the city’s local culture, like the Utah Jazz named for the legendary contributions of Salt Lake City to American popular music.

This is true, but also a bunch of members of the national media were just literally present right when it happened.

I wrote about last night's shooting on 14th St., and the national media's disparate treatment of gun violence when it occurs in affluent neighborhoods. Spoke to some incredible public safety advocates who have dedicated themselves to preventing homicides: https://t.co/tQT9fOy7ag
