Funny, when there's a plan to raise the minimum wage to $15 an hour, big businesses say "we''ll have no choice but to raise prices."

But when they got $1.9 trillion in corporate tax breaks, not one big business said "good news! we're able to lower prices."

I love translating recipes for myself. Like "Prep time: 15 minutes." Okay, so that's an hour.

Let's chat about games that promote inclusion. What is a game that has done something to you that stood out when it comes to inclusion? #boardgames

Violet vs snow.

There's an account called @wearebbpdx, but the USS Portland was a CA, not a BB.

That WWII ship was named after Portland, Maine. The current USS Portland, named after the city in Oregon (who were not all happy about it), is an LPD.

In 1986 Michael Foot MP was made the chair of a disarmament committee. The Times headline ran: ‘Foot Heads Arms Body’

Them: Is that an authentic joke?

Me: No, it's a knock-knock-off.

People keep referring to the attempted coup as a "siege", which is inaccurate. The terrorists didn't surround the Capitol and cut off supplies; they stormed the place.

Skylab was incredible. Imagine what the ISS would be like if it were made up of a few Skylab-sized modules. Just one Skylab had almost as much total volume as the entire habitable (but not total pressurized) volume of the ISS. https://twitter.com/UniverCurious/status/1353461503622590464
