Uh, what did they think wouldn’t happen? Another of my favorite tweet templates: actions meet consequences.
British fishing communities were in support of the UK leaving the European Union. But now, they're protesting Parliament, claiming Brexit-related red tape is suffocating their business. to.pbs.org/3o0rgxb

I wrote this tweet before his five-for today. This achievement in his first test series, that too in Australia, shows his quality. Very few bowlers come to Australia and walk away by blowing out the domestic team. #cricket A good write up about Siraj: espncricinfo.com/story/austr…
For me, #Siraj is the breakout player of the tournament, on both sides. Sure Vihari, Ashwin, Rahane, Gill, Thakur, etc. have had their moments but Siraj showed that he belonged from his first ball. Now he looks like the leader of the attack. #cricket #IndiavsAustralia

Why are weather radar searches about South Africa, UK, Australia, Sri Lanka and New Zealand surging in India? The answer may surprise you! (Damn I should write buzzfeed article titles. You’re welcome @gauravsabnis!).
A Russian friend who did some work with AccuWeather at Penn State told me a funny story. They saw random surges in radar checks online for unexpected places. Usually that happens with serious storms and searches come from the storm area. Many of these tho originated in India!

Day 14 of #OnePhotoADay Stayed in the idyllic town of #wengen, #Switzerland and this was the view from the room! Switzerland is another place which is filled with gorgeous sights! Continuing the #mountains series.
Day 13 of #OnePhotoADay Walking through the little town of #Murren, #Switzerland I chanced upon this adventurer. The contrast of the parachute against the white/blueish #swiss #alps was too good to pass up. Continuing the #mountains series

The irony is that they probably consulted an astrologer to determine when the vaccine should be shipped and likely also when the first ones should be administered. The puja part is the least of the issues (apart from bringing a flame close to something that should be at -70C). 🙄

Pay your workers a living wage! Employers should be footing the bill for paying their workers, and the latter should not have to depend on the vagaries of the customer. The conflict shouldn’t be between customer and employee.
when i worked at a food truck in college, a girl bought a $13 acai bowl, clicked No Tip on the ipad, and giggled “sorry, broke college student budget.” anyway, i hope she’s dead now
