  • My hope is that teachers will show young ppl how 2 make sense of public data sets 2 solve issues in their communities. Data viz activism. #
  • But public data sets even as they are can still function like gold mines. Exciting times for entrepreneurs, activists, journalists, artists. #
  • Data sets don't tell the whole story. Only what was recorded. A dataset is 10x better if it + points 2 oral histories, zines, photo archives #
  • You know, I was thinking that public data sets are like the new gold rush. #
  • I was an a video conference with @current team & I think SF folks were laughing at me sippin' my Capri Sun. Whatevs I stay hydrated 😀 #

  • Today I worked with the @currentspitzer team. Rescued some baby birds from my bathroom ceiling. Drank 10 Capri Suns. You know how a playa do #
  • I got over my fear of tiny baby birds when I remembered that I have health insurance. S'all good. They are being cared for/safe. #
  • I wasn't lying when I said baby birds were living in my bathroom ceiling @ The Clocktower http://t.co/tjbutlHM #
  • I'd take a pic of these baby birds and share but I'm scared of tiny baby bird diseases. So, no. #
  • damn i need a #flashlight http://t.co/dTHJ8PGe #
  • #nowplaying Be My Baby (birds) http://t.co/ezlhjOpr #

  • wtf “@velvetboogie: @girlsHBO telling a gay man that his voice sounds like a bag of dying babies #mistakesGIRLSmake € #
  • I'm going to have a heatstroke party this year. We can sit in the air conditioned dark & recover w popsicles & ice packs. + Jello shots #
  • I have white friends who handle the sun better than I do. It's embarrassing. But since I hate to miss out, summer = heatstrokelandia. #
