- .@anniecolbert I really like your website. Lots of personality 🙂 in reply to anniecolbert #
- Who's dumb idea was it again in the 90s 2 force kids 2 learn cursive but not computer science? Society is paying for that now. #
- lmfao “@damnsheDIDthat: the voice my ex uses in his head to read my tweets as he stalks my timeline is probably hilarious.†#

- .@pennymisandry hiiiiiii! <3 you found me on Twitter! yay! Nice to "see" you 🙂 in reply to pennymisandry #
- Without a Teleprompter and a script, @mittromney has no mind of his own. That awkward lull earlier was proof. #RNC #2012GOP #Current2012 #
- Uh @mittromney doesn't care about the very poor so why is he talking about poverty? #
- lmfao “@moorehn: What is that sucking/clicking sound Mitt keeps making? Get him a glass of water or an electrical engineer.†#
- If yr not watching @current right now & enjoying the juxtaposition of @mittromney & our curated #InvisibleObama tweets … go look y'all! #
- Invisible Obama and Mexican Mitt go to White Castle #GOP2012movies #GOP2012 #current2012 #
- .@whoschriskelly Thanks for watching! #Current2012 in reply to whoschriskelly #
- lol I need to do that too “@shananaomi: @dcap i have a whole set of belts i mostly just wear over dresses on days i need an IFB!†#
- Homie Steven in IT at @Current just lent me his belt since dresses aren't walkie-friendly #Current2012 #femmeproblems http://t.co/EuWuPHd5 #
- Last @twitter UX thought: every platform=what U make it. If U see @twitter as some box 2 check off on a task list, I feel bad 4 U. Good luck #
- 2/2 Just "playing" on Twitter has led me 2 more things that tangibly improved my life than some superficial "engagement" bullshit checklist. #
- Gamers & gamification experts know this: basic, unstructured PLAY and EXPLORATION are essential to thriving in this world. Kids+adults! 1/2 #
- When ppl R like "I don't have time 2 use @twitter just to play around" I'm like "Do U have time to watch commercials? Bcuz then U have time" #
- When ppl R like "I only use @twitter for my job" I'm like "your job shouldn't trust U to use it then." Bcuz U don't get the culture that way #
- 3/3 I've found clients, IRL friends+more by just taking time 2 be curious/not thinking about metrics. ex: 4am casual convo led to a gig once #
- 2/3 When you take the time to actually get to know ppl, and explore your natural basic curiosity, amazing things can happen through @twitter #
- 1/2 What some ppl don't understand is that some of the most favorable outcomes don't manifest through by the book "pro" behavior on @Twitter #
- .@suzy_ex what's unfortunate=some ppl only like the choir. if they see something in their feed that challenges them, they unfollow. sad. #
- The @twitter medium is conducive to micro-learning. 1/2 RT @suzy_ex @dcap I love it. If people can't handle what I have 2 say, then bye h8rz #
- Me too. Oh well! Some ppl like their bubble. RT @lynneluvah @dcap It happens to me when I discuss racial issues. Unfollow. Unfollow. #
- I forgot that! haha! So long ago right <3 yr welcome RT @jambajim @dcap U were the one 2 introduce me to @Twitter! I can't thank U enough! #
- 3/3 @jenleereeves Ppl can use Twitter however they want, of course. But if you only use it to please your boss/teacher, you are missing out. in reply to jenleereeves #
- 2/3 @jenleereeves U can tell when a person is new to @twitter & joined due to a class or job requirement. They don't get the culture. in reply to jenleereeves #
- Nope, not what I meant 🙂 1/2 RT @jenleereeves @dcap are you seeing schools requiring students to use twitter just to gain followers? in reply to jenleereeves #
- I suspect ppl get uncomfortable when Internet ppl force them 2 think beyond marketing/biz ish RT @lynneluvah @dcap That happens to you too? #
- I smile when people unfollow after I say something real on Twitter. It's a great housekeeping strategy. Bye, lames! #
- #nowplaying Total – Kissing You http://t.co/p53H33RS xo #
- I'm not my @klout score of 69. I am not a pundit. I am a person, Daniela. If you want to really know me, all you have to do is reach out. #
- .@klout is fun but it doesn't capture t true value i get out of twitter or what i bring in2 the lives of people who find me through twitter. #
- I feel bad for @twitter newbies who come here from media studies/journo school & their core usage is some metrics/biz driven exercise. #
- .@twitter is a valuable marketing/engagement tool & a part of my job but the interpersonal, life-affirming aspects R what brings me joy. #
- In early days of @twitter, ppl weren't here 2 sell U on something. U came becuz U wr curious. U shared yr life – part I still love the most #
- I appreciate what my followers on @twitter share and I hope you get something out of my feed too. Otherwise, what's the point? #
- I care more about authentic relationships via @twitter than my follower count. Employment+Friendships+Love; thru Twitter since '06. #
- My jewish step grandfather "Grampy" is a great man. He is 90+ yrs old, an artist & uses his kindle everyday. I want him to live forever :*(. #
- Thank you for your kind words 🙂 “@peoplegogy: @dcap good for you†#
- <3 I shriek every time I see you on #Current2012 on our monitors in SF “@shananaomi: @dcap good for you on all counts†#
- I'm on a kick where I document the things I'm proud of, that make me feel good. It works 4 me. I have a lot to be proud of, I've discovered. #
- 2day I edited a video 4 client from my hotel bed, replied 2 @POCZineProject emails, went 2 work+supervised 18 ppl, then dinner w pals. #boss #
- Lol “@emilybell: Reddit is a blow 4 RNC though. maybe Paul Ryan can quickly mod on Minecraft & pull back 13-yr old socially awkward vote†#
- lmfao “@natashavc: Give me any chance to slut shame Marilyn Monroe and I'll take it.†#
- Sad “@HuffPostLive: The number of PhDs on welfare more than tripled between 2007 and 2010 http://t.co/WusUDf1h #education #HuffPostLive†#
- Feeling blessed that @poczineproject tour planning=progressing in fabulous+ productive manner. This helps me deal w a lot of unrelated BS <3 #
- .@SoyChaiLatte Def! Feel free to message/add me: daniela AT dcapmedia DOT com, http://t.co/LCkqWNy1. I'll be in touch 🙂 in reply to SoyChaiLatte #
- likes the juxtaposition of listening 2 Bikini Kill : Suck My Left One while answering emails in my biz/grown up voice. http://t.co/XZc08U8I #
- RT @POCZineProject CALL FOR SUBMISSIONS: 'We Got this,' a #zine 2 share sex worker resources/strategies for protection http://t.co/HA7JYP3V #
- .@lilysea Considering how many networks air tweets, I think @twitter shd update their TOS 2 include this reality. But no one reads those :/ in reply to lilysea #
- #nowplaying Talking Heads – "This Must Be The Place" http://t.co/ybMZL5JA Soundtrack for a nomadic life … <3 #
- Would you be upset if a network used your tweets w/o that? What would you do? RT @lilysea @dcap I think they should ask permission first. #
- So guys, you probably know this already, but several networks are using your RNC & DNC tweets on air. Do you care? I'm curious. #
- .@SoyChaiLatte I love your writing. I regret never asking you to meets IRL in NYC. I'm frequently in LA so, safe travels! xo in reply to SoyChaiLatte #
- Those Education Connection TV commercials are so insulting to millennials. #
- .@strategiclee Cool! Will do 🙂 in reply to strategiclee #

- .@strategiclee I sleep on the weekends. Hey! Are you in SF? I'm out here til 9/7 let's meet up if so! in reply to strategiclee #
- I daresay that I probably love #Squidbillies more than ATHF. It's really hard to choose but #Squidbillies does more topical stuff. #
- me too! “@TGOD_cuh: I like how #Squidbillies intro song is "different genre" every episode now..†#
- lmfao!! “@StickMagik: The old lady talking for Alabama's delegates sounds just like the grandma from #squidbillies #RNC #p2 #hardball†#
- I cannot express how much I appreciate the genius behind #Squidbillies in 140c. It's fucking brilliant satire & totally underrated. #
- .@santagati #Squidbillies is on right now!!! #adultswim in reply to santagati #
- ZOMG you love #Squidbillies too??? <3 No one will watch it with me #lames #philistines “@santagati: @dcap That's my show!†#
- Disclosure: there are several people I follow just because they once tweeted about Squidbillies. #adultswim #
- Robot Chicken has a Neverending Story parody. It was AWESOME. I am
SO happy I just saw this. #hoteltv #adultswim # - I like the 8mm app, fun for video “@SnoopDogg: Lemme. know. what apps ur usin n what social networks?? Whats craccin?†#
- So guys, you probably know this already, but several networks are using your RNC & DNC tweets on air. Do you care? I'm curious. #
- so important, right? impacts work quality “@peoplegogy: @dcap so true. I fed my crew well during my time in film school†#
- The people at Alhamra in SF are hilarious. No utensils or napkins in a delivery of Indian food? Really? cc @grubhub #
- I mean, if you have any doubts about how important food is to morale, look at how @google hooks up their employees. Food for days. Smart. #
- The 1st thing I will check w my AD each day on my first feature that I direct= state of/quality of crafty. For real. Food morale is critical #
- 2/2 I first learned that on the set of Mira Nair's film The Namesake, where I watched several crew members have a meltdown re: crappy crafty #
- Something I learn from working in film production that has served me well: always make sure yr team is fed, hydrated & gets potty breaks 1/2 #
- I'm committed to seeing one bay area friend per day while I'm out here. So far, so good. Had breakfast today with an awesome homie. #
- I'm getting Indian food from @grubhub right now because I'm a modern woman who likes naan so very much. #
- Check it: http://t.co/Bm8O7O06 + drop by from 4pm – 8pm ET this week, that's when it's "off the chain." My slang goes retro when I'm tired. #
- ^_^ TY, ditto RT @angelamedia @dcap you too–Great job handling a big section of the bucket brigade! #
- Great day guys! @shananaomi @VictorBalta @laurelmargaret @monicaleas @angelamedia @joelhyatt #Current2012 Sorry 2 those I left off, tired:) #

- "Strong hands" + "I love you women" = need a YouTube mashup please #Current2012 #RNC2012 #
- .@mollyknefel Pls cover harassment on planes as well – men who think 10k feet = rules of personal space out the window. #RadioDispatch #
- LOL “@CapitolAlert: CA reputation at RNC: 'scary,' 'hyper environmental,' great wine' http://t.co/FifNWkrH†#
- Great profile “@JamesEstrin: “Eventually everyone’s going to be Puerto Rican.†Photos by Adal Maldonado http://t.co/Ms9xXzI0 #Boricua € #
- 2/2 Fashion is great. But judging someone's intelligence+potential based on hair+clothes+tattoos+piercings= really dumb. It's 2012 y'all. #
- There's that adage: "dress for the job you want to have." That was never relevant for me bcuz I will dress however I want, at all times 1/2 #
- It's so funny, the difference btwn how ppl treat me when I pass as normative vs non-normative in hair & style. I enjoy confusing sheeple. #
- 2/2 This guy was grilling me & wouldn't believe my work history! Bcuz of my hair! LOL I guess if I was in a boring suit he wd have believed. #
- I met this guy in the liquor store earlier this evening & based on my appearance he assumed I was some sort of anarchist. I said thanks! 1/2 #
- Don't judge a book by its cover, y'all. A suit & buzzwords doesn't make someone legit. And non-normative hair/clothes doesn't = loser/dumb. #
- Jesus take the wheel “@MotherJones Until 1998, Mississippi said it wasn't rape if victim was "impure." #notjoking http://t.co/SqMxXa09†#
- Very few Interwebz things make me smile more than Instagram pics by thrilled #gay #queer guys meeting @NICKIMINAJ IRL <3 #

- Mmm yeah I love 30 Rock but Puerto Ricans do not have quinceaneras in Prospect Park while dancing the macarena. #wtf #whowrotethisepisode #
- It's interesting to me how many people have jobs because of the existence of Twitter, including data journalists. #
- .@zephoria adults have a lot to learn from teens about community engagement & platform-specific vernacular. in reply to zephoria #

- Poop chair on BoltBus: the seat right by the toilet. aka the doodoo seat. aka ew #
- I think if u have 2 sit in the poop chair on BoltBus yr chair outlet shd work. Dying phone AND hearing every1's potty biznes=not the biznes #
