NC gal turned comms pro in DC. I like TV, farmers' markets, & magazine subscriptions. In that order. I hate parallel parking & olives. Tweets/views are my own.

Hey @AmericanAir. HUGE thanks to Valeria in the D terminal at DFW. Her patience, assistance, and care were greatly appreciated as we tried to juggle 5 checked bags, 3 backpacks, 2 car seats, 1 stroller, 2 young kids, and a partridge in a pear tree.

What Mehmet Oz means when he says abortion should be between "a woman, her doctor, and local political leaders." #PASenateDebate

Thx @amyschumer

Thinking about the people of Stow, MA during this difficult time. @wbznewsradio

After confirming & re-confirming what my 3-yr-old wanted for breakfast, I was greeted with an epic, rage-filled meltdown bc he wanted "too much jam and too much butter." I gave him a normal serving of jam and butter, not knowing "too much" was desired. Because I am a monster.

This is amazing!!! Congrats, @SmokeyCloud.

My brother @SmokeyCloud now has 1/2 of the EGOT cycle, snaring this E to go with his O from Ford v Ferrari! #ProudBrother

Okay, so I rearranged my whole life to avoid student loan debt, prepaid for my kids’ college educations since their births, and now everyone’s getting $10,000 forgiven?

I think that’s great 😊 Congrats, guys. A rising tide lifts all boats.

[Muffet McGraw @MuffetMcGraw]

U think life isn’t fair Bc someone else’s student loan was cancelled? Try being a woman with life threatening complications to her pregnancy & republicans passed a law saying we are ok if you die.

A clip from Don’t Look Up, and then a real TV interview that just happened

Retweet if you believe we need a nationwide ban on assault weapons.

I often tell people that Justice Breyer is my favorite human I’m not related to, and I mean it. Congratulations on your retirement, boss.

[Dan Rather @DanRather]

I love how the people dismissing Matthew McConaughey as a “celebrity” fawn over the man who presided over Celebrity Apprentice and hail Ted Nugent as, well, a celebrity.

@kwilson202 Oh nooo! Ugh I'm sorry. You all have it?

[Amanda Gorman @TheAmandaGorman]

What might we be if only we tried.
What might we become if only we’d listen.

[Kyle Griffin @kylegriffin1]

Sen. Chris Murphy to his fellow senators: "What are we doing? Why do you spend all this time running for the United States Senate … if your answer is that, as the slaughter increases, as our kids run for their lives, we do nothing? What are we doing? Why are you here?"

[Amanda Gorman @TheAmandaGorman]

Schools scared to death.
The truth is, one education under desks,
Stooped low from bullets;
That plunge when we ask
Where our children
Shall live
& how
& if

[Clint Smith @ClintSmithIII]

These are elementary school children who woke up this morning. Who ate their favorite cereal. Who tied their shoes in double knots. Who laughed with friends on the bus. Now more than a dozen are dead. This isn’t normal. It doesn’t have to be this way. It can’t keep being this way

[Lindsay deCastrique Vivian @Lindsaydec]

I'm also furious that this keeps happening. That politicians act like thought and prayers are the best we can do. Children and families are dying. They can't safely buy groceries. They can't safely attend school. DO SOMETHING.

[Lindsay deCastrique Vivian @Lindsaydec]

I sit here holding my 3 year old as he watches Spidey & His Amazing Friends and enthusiastically narrates the episode for me. I have tears streaming that he does not see. I'm crying for all those parents in TX and because I'm terrified to send my own children out into the world.

“Spare me the bullshit of mental illness,” says Sen. Murphy of the United States. “We’re not an outlier on mental illness, we’re an outlier on firearms”
