Iβll miss this weird place and all the amazing people Iβve been fortunate enough to interact with here. Sticking around for Midwestern goodbye and the hot gossip as the sun sets on our Twitter era. Godspeed and smooth sailing, internet friends!
@KendraWrites During the early hours of the airport protests against Executive Order 13769 in Jan/Feb 2017, zero news outlets were covering it, so I came here.

If demands are not met, students say theyβll go on strike beginning Jan. 18. #oakedu
