VEGAS WINS IT IN DOUBLE OT

[Taylor Swift @taylorswift13]

Writing this song felt like a musical departure and coming home at the same time. Creating something for Jessie was a new challenge and also felt like second nature all at once. And being a @toystory kid from the age of 5 til now… is an adventure I plan to be on, to infinity and beyond.

Thank you to the brilliant Andrew Stanton for imagining me for this, all those years ago when you wrote this newest film. Thank you to the incomparable @RandyNewman or the gorgeous sonic tapestry of songs and scores you’ve meticulously woven over the years. You created the Toy Story musical world, and we are lucky to get to live in it.
By we, I mean myself and my pal @jackantonoff. We wrote this with so much adoration for these characters that made us laugh and helped us learn lessons and think outside the backyard all throughout our childhoods. “I Knew It, I Knew You” from Toy Story 5 is out everywhere now. 🤠🐴

On December 18, 2018 Nevada became the first state legislature in the United States to become represented by majority women. It would go on to expand that majority in 2020! https://t.co/zCxK4jrliB

Nevada is the 7th largest state by land mass!

After this transmission the state got the moniker Battle Born being admitted to the Union at the height of the civil war. This would be put on the state flag. But the official motto “All For Our Country” is on the state seal.

[Zil @Zil_JDR]

The Nevada Constitution was transmitted to President Abraham Lincoln in Morse code on October 26, 1864, by Governor James W. Nye to ensure Nevada's admission to the Union before the presidential election. The 16,543-word document was painstakingly took 12 hours to be submitted.

To start us off! In 1932, the Native Daughters invited Bertha Raffetto to perform a song at there Annual Picnic. Then Gov.Colcord enjoyed the song so much that he encouraged it to become the state song. Here is the Killers rendition!!! https://t.co/gqzCVaMU7x
