I downloaded somethin that may solve this pandemic. You should download it too. Free computer program @WCGrid runs in the background as you do anything like watch YouTube or check email, making calculations that scientists will use to create a vaccine. https://t.co/GU2gLrEHhz

I wrote an article about how the 1918 Spanish flu pandemic affected Congress. Among the bills they voted on: increasing the number of doctors and... potentially restricting women's right to vote? Also, three House members died. https://t.co/5KaeYStEIZ

I hosted trivia last night and would like to congratulate the team Quentin Quarantino.

I interviewed one of Tinder's top data scientists for @UConn Magazine. One tip of his: post three to eight photos, not one or 10, but make sure they're all relatively recent. https://t.co/yI1uykCmpz https://t.co/trS6nk6Yjq

Congressional Gold Medal: the highest honor Congress can bestow. Last year, nominees included NASA's real life "Hidden Figures," U.S. women's national soccer team, Aretha Franklin, Tour de France winner Greg Lemond, Gandhi. My fun article for @GovTrack. https://t.co/mzFXOGomXU

This week’s humor contest for the Washington Post Style Invitational: use air quotes around letters within a word, then define the new word. My inning entry about the Beatles! https://t.co/wCsjWALIYO

I'd gotten honorable mention 12 times, and ranked as high as 3rd place. This week was my inaugural 1st place win in the Washington Post's Style Invitational humor contest! This week's contest: reverse a word in a movie title, and describe the new film. https://t.co/tKsZdUV3Nw
