This is from the official Under Secretary of Defense for Intelligence DOD account on Twitter. Ezra Cohen-Watnick - after being appointed by Trump to chair an influential declassification board - "likes" a tweet that implies he is "Q."
119/7 = 17 & Q = 17

119 \u27977 is now the Chairman of the Public Interest Declassification Board. This new information could be of importance to many. I wonder what that could mean for those who have taken actions to obscure potentially damaging information from the public view?

More from Twitter
I've been a Twitter power user since 2008 or so. Long time.
I've watched it change from an impromptu conversation or watch party platform to a place for people to build their professional reputations and network.
2/ In many ways it's matured into a more effective professional platform than LinkedIn.
LinkedIn is (mostly) about collecting the professional contacts you've met.

3/ What also hasn't changed is its power for networking.
This is particularly useful if you break out of your echo chamber and talk, build relationships with people doing tangentially related things.
You're bricklaying and with patience it pays off.
Back of the napkin math - over the last year I've referred (or retained) $500k+ worth of business to contacts in my network.

4/ What has changed is a growing population of people being *intentional* about the use of Twitter for their professional lives.
Observations on what's working for them:
5/ They "Build in public" - sharing behind the scenes perspectives on whatever it is you're doing professionally.
What do people not know about what you do?
Stick within your expertise, with focus, where people see you are an authority - that’s where you grow a following.
