@mimismartypants La Familia Green! https://t.co/D1NzfuxDFI Local, handmade, and hilarious. Mollie is a gem and donates a ton to Chicago animal rescue.

I don’t remember what I went out on, but I remember being scolded for spelling “diagnosis” too quickly. Becoming a medical editor when I grew up just made sense.

[Ellen is at the Grammar Table @GrammarTable]

If you were stumped in a spelling bee as a kid, what was the word you went out on?

Update: spotted at N Avondale and N Springfield today (Wed, July 29). Chicago, please keep an eye out!

[Shannon Sparenga @SSparenga]

Wow. Thanks for that, Captain White Supremacy. 🙄

I am happy to inform all of the people living their Suburban Lifestyle Dream that you will no longer be bothered or financially hurt by having low income housing built in your neighborhood...

Avondale/Irving Park friends! One of our foster pups got loose during transport near Addison and Hamlin earlier today. Please be on the lookout for Mighty Mouse!

Do not chase, just call (# on flyer) or message with any sightings! 🙏 cc: @LostDogsIL @CDRosa

@_dunderproto In 7th or 8th grade, boys and girls were paired up and had to carry around a bag of flour for a week without it breaking. I named mine Brooke.

Umm...

[Donald J. Trump @realDonaldTrump]

Cases are going up in the U.S. because we are testing far more than any other country, and ever expanding. With smaller testing we would show fewer cases!

[Shannon Sparenga @SSparenga]

@mimismartypants Yes! The most badass woman I’ve ever met runs an academy in Niles, so why not?

[Shannon Sparenga @SSparenga]

Our @onetailatatime foster dog, Meiko, is officially adoptable! He is the sweetest, softest, and smiliest (probably a little too interested in cats to live with them, though). 💙 https://t.co/bWjQiaihOC

@veryimportant That is such a dad thing to do. I’m impressed with your dad’s level of dadness.

[I’ve Pet That Dog @IvePetThatDog]

I would love to pet Freckles. He is 1 year old and in need of a home through @onetailatatime . He is scared of other dogs, and would do best being your only pet. His adoption fee is sponsored for the right home.

[Shannon Sparenga @SSparenga]

It’s amazing to see communities cheer for health care workers nightly and I’m not saying we should replace it, but can we also pick a time to yell FUUUCK in unison? I think it would bring us all together.

[Shannon Sparenga @SSparenga]

@MerriamWebster @wcfbook Women & Children First in Chicago is pretty amazing.

Cold/wet/foggy/windy, but people on balconies give thanks to medical workers fighting COVID-19

Friday night, Chicago

[Shannon Sparenga @SSparenga]

@gavinjohnadams Happy birthday, Gavin! https://t.co/ZBzH6E0r6d

[Shannon Sparenga @SSparenga]

@veryimportant @SparengaPhoto Hope the same for you. A little jealous you have dogs in yours.

[Shannon Sparenga @SSparenga]

@veryimportant I asked @SparengaPhoto, a drummer, about this and he confirmed that this is correct in all respects.

[Shannon Sparenga @SSparenga]

In non-breaking, non-news, the US president’s racism is showing. Also, does he know that state borders aren’t actually infinitely tall walls?

[Donald J. Trump @realDonaldTrump]

Cuomo wants “all states to be treated the same.” But all states aren’t the same. Some are being hit hard by the Chinese Virus, some are being hit practically not at all. New York is a very big “hotspot”, West Virginia has, thus far, zero cases. Andrew, keep politics out of it....

[Shannon Sparenga @SSparenga]

Don’t be gross. Cough/sneeze into your elbow, practice social distancing, and, if you’re a researcher writing an academic paper, avoid overstating your results (seriously so gross and copyeditors don’t want to deal with it). #amediting
