- Just saw a man run down an escalator going up, not catch a train going in Largo direction than jump onto the tracks, go across and attach himself onto a train going in Ashburn direction and the train left the station with him hanging on to it @wmata What in spy movie is this?
- Sigh. VP Tim Waltz just said “fire in a crowded theater that is the Supreme Court test” THAT IS NOT THE TEST
- Good morning and on the second anniversary of me starting at Facebook I’ve been laid off from Meta. Wish the best to my colleagues who I’ve learned a lot from. My immigration status gives a short period of time to find another job so if you have any leads
- Remember that Black Mirror episode where the mom blocks anything sad or violent from her kids eyes and then the kid grows up to be horrible because they don’t have any reference of life or emotional intelligenceLet's give parents the tools to protect their kids online. I’ve introduced legislation to keep kids under age 16 off social media. It'll help parents and it'll keep kids safe
00:00 - Daily reminder that Presidents attorneys invoked #Section230 to protect him from liability for a retweet he didREPEAL SECTION 230!!!
- I am incredibly blessed. To work on protecting free speech online and to work with the incredible team at @StandTogether who went above and beyond to make sure I could safely remain in the US and join them. I am however paying out the karma of making fun of Arlington for a decade

- .@TechFreedom has been an incredible place for me personally and professionally. To my former colleagues - you treated me like family, I will always cherish your friendship. I look forward to discussing with all of you how to support our communities online and defend free speechCongratulations to inaugural @ILPFoundry Fellow @Ashkhen on joining @Facebook as "manager for content moderation." Time for her to join the @tspainfo.
- Replying to @AshkhenBut here is the thing. The US government said I am an individual with an extraordinary ability, a genius! I have spent 7 years in this country on a student to work visa and paid taxes more than many. Only thing that is extraordinary is how broken the immigration system is.
- Some of you might know certain parts of my story but I am very tired and frustrated with the system that is in place. Between January of 2020 and May of 2021 I didn't leave the US because of COVID and all the restrictions. Leave - lose your job and ability to come back situation
- Replying to @AXA and @BNPParibasThis is shameless behavior that’s putting human lives at risk @AXA1. I don’t often tweet about my personal life, but on 1st November, my mum Jane was hit by a large vehicle as a pedestrian in St. Louis, USA. She suffered a severe brain injury & remains in a coma in hospital. Here's Jane & me in happier times.
- Replying to @morganwreed and @wmataNo one was chasing him. The station was empty. Genuinely felt like a Jack Ryan situation lol
