@JennyENicholson I can’t tell if you have this one already, but there is (or at least used to be) an animatronic tobacco farmer at the Duke Homestead museum in Durham, NC.
@publicroad We had an audiobook this year (a kids’ book from a major publisher) in which the narrator pronounced the name “Nguyen” like “En-guy-en.” Quality controls do not seem to be in place.
There are many dangerous, misleading rumors spreading about #Helene response, which can actively prevent survivors from getting help. Our top priority is ensuring that disaster assistance is reaching people in need.
@RevEverett “I only come to the office one day a week, I preach all my sermons out of the filing cabinet, and I haven’t done any continuing education in twenty-five years, but this is kind of what I do and I’m going to keep doing it.”
@Tanishaevonne I think the groups that work with returning citizens have lists, though I don’t know that there’s a single comprehensive one. Maybe start by asking @PGH_FoundHOPE.
Father's Day:
My dad died twenty-eight years ago next month, and so I have been without someone to wish a "happy Father's Day" to in person almost as long as I had someone to wish that to, which is a very strange thought, since every passing year I feel more and more his son.
@bode_maxwell@EM_RESUS When I was pregnant but before I told my dad, he called to tell me about a beautiful dream he had where he was seeing me and my husband through a window, and then looked down to see that he was holding a baby. He died exactly one month before my daughter was born.
We were pleased to welcome Bishop Zubik back to the Allegheny County Jail for the first time in 5 years to host a mass for 40-50 incarcerated individuals. He also washed the feet of 12 people. Thank you Bishop Zubik for celebrating Holy Thursday at the Allegheny County Jail.
