Just working with what I’ve got. Custom AP maps which are interactive and update live, brought in via an html embed. A little fancier than a “camera at a monitor” but certainly no giant touchscreen, I’ll give you that ;)
If anyone needs comedic relief from the tension, flip on over to @thehill streaming channel to watch @ChipBrewster as he ... scrolls website pages! Yes, that's the height of their technology is to point a camera at a monitor and mouse around. #ElectionDay

I’m not sure who all follows me on X (or why, honestly), but I’m doing some cool stuff the next couple days. Speaking of, today hit me with a ton of emotion. 6min of unedited Chip reflections:

That’s an internship I would have loved.
The so-called “running of the interns” was the fastest way for the world to find out about a Supreme Court ruling in the paper era. The faster they ran, the faster the news got out.

Hey @united - just read about your miles pooling program, but when I went to the site I got an "Oops" page. And now that page is just redirecting to the homepage. What's going on?

The official rainfall total in Chicago so far this May 0.42". If no additional rain falls this month (which is our forecast), May 2023 will end up the 2nd driest on record behind May 1992. The last >0.5" rainfall occurred nearly 50 days ago on April 4th. #ILwx
A persistent dry pattern may continue into early June. As a result, a flash drought appears to be developing especially in northeastern Illinois where soaking rain hasn’t occurred since early April. Be careful with open flames during the holiday weekend! #ILwx #INwx

Any other parents questioning this ad? Either that baby doesn’t drool, or that man is in for a rude awakening. My baby boy’s saliva glands are ALWAYS cranking. #DadThoughts
