It's a snowy day, which means a good day to relax at home and write poems. Why not join me? Check out my blog post at https://t.co/F4stjRL0fC

Day two of the challenges. It's all about "something good." But good is often accompanied by things that are not so good, as I've found out recently. https://t.co/gJuNMYT5Qn #blogboost

@Nate_McMurray They are both wrong. There are no good guys here. Both have committed horrific human rights violations. This is not a contest.

@RepAOC @NHushlaRe Thank you, Rep. Ocasio-Cortez. I appreciate your concern for human rights. I have a friend in Gaza, a single mom, and I am concerned about her safety and her children's safety. Hamas' actions were wrong, but further horrific violence will not solve any problems.

@gillibrandny @POTUS Please don't. The best kind of support that Israel and Palestine could receive would be a push toward diplomacy. Human Rights Watch has stated that Israel has used white phosphorus on civilians in Gaza. Why must we enable anyone's human rights violations?

@Nate_McMurray This country has gone insane. I can't deal with the politics anymore. I'm giving up on it totally or, at the least, taking a nap.

[Alice Gerard @alicesbears]

@FactsMa02805793 @Nate_McMurray too expensive, not enough local content, uneven quality of writing.

The snow & ice came back. That wasn't welcome but it was so pretty. Check out this blog post for photographs & haikus! #blogboost #haiku https://t.co/F6XB2NR4ar

@FactsMa02805793 @Nate_McMurray I don't agree with that. Nevertheless, as an editor of a small weekly newspaper, I prefer not endorsing candidates at all. Just presenting information & letting voters decide is probably the best option.

@ROCcitizen1 @Nate_McMurray Buffalo News editorial positions are actually very centrist and not especially decisive.

[Alice Gerard @alicesbears]

@sig_bjorn @Nate_McMurray Not true. It's the costs of publishing that are the main issues, especially newsprint, ink, and personnel. The Buffalo News has been cutting back on things that people like, such as puzzles & comics, to save costs, but that makes things worse & people cancel their subscriptions.

@Nate_McMurray Newspapers are, unfortunately, a dying industry. We need to create new methods of sharing news that will be viable in the 21st century.
