my latest investigation for @consumerreports.org is based on months of reporting and 60+ lab tests of leading protein supplements

we found that most protein powders and shakes have more lead in one serving than our experts say is safe to have in a day (🧵)

The books I ordered arrived yesterday.
One problem though-
If that's what they consider 'Very Good" I would hate to see Poor/Fair.

Told myself I wasn't going to buy any new books about cocktails, food, hosting, or etiquette.

I'll file this one under 'LIES I Told Myself'

- Technically, these are 'not' new books so...

I wish Obama had tried to bulldoze the White House and build an opulent ballroom during a government shutdown.

Every Republican would’ve lit themselves on fire and we wouldn’t be in the mess we’re in today.

In the audience tonight is Charlotte Bennett, one of the 13 women that Andrew Cuomo is credibly alleged to have sexually harassed while they worked in his government.

She can't speak for herself because Cuomo's lawyers have hounded her.

So I confronted him.

"A future president, even dumber than you, will allow Qatar, the country that harbored Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, the architect of the plane attacks in NY, PA, and DC today, and whose royal family will help him escape capture by the US, to build a military base on US soil to train Qataris to fly jets."

It's not shopping w my wife that bothers me. I actually enjoy being w her.
2 things irk me.
1) Salespeople that don't know how to sell/close.
- Standing isn't selling.

2) Guys who walk around frustrated about shopping w their partner.
- What else were you going to do? Watch sports?!?

I'm at CVS-

YW1) I don't know which one is best for my face.

YW2) I know. I'm so stupid when it comes to this.

Me) You should never call yourself stupid.

YW2) I do it all the time.

Me) It's a bad habit you should break, not knowing something doesn't make you stupid.

My no. 8 rule for business.
Whenever I'm at work, no problem has to be solved at 5:45 p.m.
If I text or email you about it I'm going to end the message w 'It's a tomorrow problem. It doesn't need a today solution.'
A new dawn blooms fresh ideas.
Besides, I don't want you to be late for Happy Hour.

Where's his belt?
Bad Bunny’s monologue on SNL last evening. He proved again why he’s one of the biggest artists on the planet.
He definitely exposed America’s cultural insecurity. When someone speaks Spanish on national TV, half the country panics.

For (us) liberals, @msnbc.com is our last, best hope in mass media. Today's a big day: separation from NBC. With CNN likely falling under the sway of the miniMurdochs & their Bari, I pray MSNOW stays true to its 4pm-on soul. We need it now more than ever.
