I remember us specifically changing this to be consistent with other platforms so that messages would not be misinterpreted. 🤷♂️
X (fka Twitter) has quietly redesigned its 🔫 Water Pistol emoji to display as an actual firearm. This significantly diverges from the cross-platform conversion of this emoji from pistol to water gun from 2016 to 2018. 🔗 https://t.co/GUjCHSNSkJ

When I first heard about the initiative to improve the reader/writer experience at Twitter, improving the reading experience while off-Twitter was one of the things I was most excited about. Super proud to have been involved in building this and shipping it to the world!

I owe so much of who I am to him, and I can only hope to be half the man he was.

As cliche as it sounds, he was truly one-of-a-kind. The kind of guy who’d give you the shirt off his back, and no favor was too big to ask. The kind of guy with such charisma that he made friends wherever he went.

Despite not telling her his name, she somehow tracked him down and came to our house to thank him for protecting her that night.

His selflessness was not limited to his family and friends. My dad once was at a local gas station and saw a woman being assaulted at the pump nearby. He intervened and ensured her safety before driving off.

Early in the morning, my dad tore out of our house to go down to her apartment, retrieve the passport, and bring it to her at the gate (pre-9/11, of course). Flight attendants told my grandmother they never believed she’d make that flight - but that wasn’t acceptable for my dad.

He was the kindest man, willing to go the extra mile for anyone. One year my grandmother was traveling to London on vacation with her friends. When she arrived at the airport, she noticed she hadn’t brought her passport.
