On this day, Nov. 15, 1777, the Articles of Confederation were approved by the original 13 states. They were far from being functional, but they were a start. https://t.co/CXd5Si83JA

White oak doesn’t soften the message. It sharpens it.

RIP Chuck Negron. This is my first/second fav Three Dog Night song--Pieces of April, played live. There's an out-of-circulation version recorded live in Japan. This sounds the closest thing to it, if it's not it: https://t.co/ov4qcyQ8D3

THREE DOG NIGHT--Few songs inspired me to want to play the drums more than the syncopation in this live version of Black and White from 1970. I can't tell you how many times I played this over and over as a kid. https://t.co/KeqGugqpaP

Cherry takes its time. Same form. Different temperament.

Walnut reveals everything you do — and everything you don’t. Campana, work in progress.

Great work today, @GOP, @NRSC, @HouseGOP, and @GOPGovs. Nearly every major one of @TheDemocrats has had a news conference today in their city, capitol, or on the Hill and y'all have been 🦗🦗🦗🦗🦗🦗🦗 None of you bracketed them. WTH? What are your peeps doing, conceding?

Happy Data Privacy Day. Somewhere right now, an algorithm knows you like smoked paprika, watched a documentary once, and almost bought a kayak. You never met it. It knows you all too well.
