Anyone who needs a reminder that the kids are more than ok needs to volunteer to judge state FBLA contests. I'm more than thrilled about our future. @KSFBLA

I see tweets all the time complaining about people on speaker phones in public but y’all it is a PROBLEM. I am in a surgery waiting room for family members and there are no less than FOUR different people having simultaneous SPEAKER conversations. And that isn’t even counting the number of people who have their ringers and notifications on BLAST. What has happened to us as a society? Do people have no consideration for others at all? I guess I’m just used to a courtroom where you get fined if your phone makes a noise but my goodness this is bonkers to me.

Reminder of why today's girls flag football announcement is such a big deal ... and why the Chiefs will always be tied to the creation of that varsity sport in Kansas.

[KSHSAA @KSHSAA]

BREAKING: Kansas is now the 18th state to sanction girls flag football.

The KSHSAA Board of Directors made it official today by a 61-1 vote. Starting in the 2026-27 school year, Kansas girls will compete for a KSHSAA state championship in flag football.

Maryland becomes first state to pass law requiring state agencies to spend 50 percent of marketing budgets with local media. https://t.co/uJN8UO6iC2

Seriously. 😳

According to a court filing today, the district did not produce any records by today's deadline. Instead, they emailed the plaintiff's attorneys and said they'd provide docs on a rolling basis and asked the students not to share the docs.

Veto of Sections 26(a) 53(b) and 54(w) from the Budget, Legislative Operating Budget and legislative parking privilege OVERRIDDEN 84-39. I voted NO. Raising legislative pay when my constituents are struggling is morally repugnant. #ksleg

This! We can hold (and support!) both models.

[Lexi Solomon @SolomonLexiB]

Just a reminder you don’t have to dunk on legacy media to support nonprofits and online outlets! These things are not mutually exclusive, we all love local news and we are all trying 💖 happy Local News Day

New Orleans' famous Cafe Du Monde being open since 1862 is fascinating because the city was actively being captured by Union forces and some guy said "This is a perfect time to open my coffee & beignet stand"

Texans were sold on the notion that vouchers would serve the kids who needed them most to "escape" failing public schools.

But now that applications are closed, the data shows 73% of applicants are already enrolled in private or home schools.

We are hurtling toward an outcome that was predicted from the very start: a massive transfer of our public money into private hands with no accountability. #txlege

Wow, a 2025 study found you could connect Craigslist entering a city with a decline in local newspaper staffing, leading to a decline in politics coverage, which in turn led to a decline in readership, which they connect to more partisan voting and extreme candidates.

[Greg Berge @GregBerge]

Overprotected kids become unprepared adults.

Dawn Staley nailed it.🔥

You can’t shelter your child from every hard moment and then expect them to handle adversity when it counts.

Hard is the lesson.

Watch. Share. Bookmark.

[Emily B @BEmilySue]

Exactly.

@joannachadwick This is some pure dystopian ‘ish.

[Jeremy Chrysler @jeremychrysler]

We subscribed to our local paper for Christmas and I think everyone should do it.

Today I sat in a chair and read an article about our school board for 20 minutes.

Being able to choose what you read without algorithmic assistance lowers your cortisol levels.

[julie k. brown @jkbjournalist]

Local newspapers people. Local journalism. Must read.

.@mackenziescott you have the opportunity to do an extremely funny (and genuinely heroic) thing right now

[Aaron Parnas @AaronParnas]

Democracy dies in darkness.

A horrible day for the First Amendment.
