The Writing Guides accepting new clients. Do you have a manuscript that needs a major structural overhaul, but you don't know where to begin? Or perhaps you are looking for an editor to make your final draft elegant? If so, reach out...... https://t.co/LJDSBjW3hw

Thanks for highlighting our work!

[Social Problems @socprobsjournal]

Pronouns do more than reflect identity. This study from Jessica Moeder and William J Scarborough (@UNTsocial) and @bjrisman shows how non-binary people use pronouns in diverse ways to shape and redefine gender https://t.co/3NxBWNYqV9

@XfinitySupport your customer support is beyond awful. Wait for live agent. Who cannot understand or fix simple problem. Paying for service but not being sent modern is totally unacceptable

[Dr.barbara risman @bjrisman]

@DoorDash since when is leaving a pizza on the stoop of a big apartment building instead of calling, as instructed, is not acceptable service! Freezing cold pizza in chicago is not worth having. No one even bothered to steal it!

@SouthwestAir @djbern_ Quite sure customer preference not driving these changes. What percentage say, charge me for checking my bags. When you copy every other airline expect customers to go to other airlines who used to be loyal

[Dr.barbara risman @bjrisman]

Amen!

[Amy Siskind 🏳️‍🌈🇺🇸 @Amy_Siskind]

I just want to recognize all the “uncommitted” voters who thought it was a good idea to sit out 2024 in protest. Hope you learned something!

[Dan Savage @fakedansavage]

Every Democratic member of Congress should be on a plane to Minneapolis right now to join the people protesting in the streets. Federal elected officials should physically place themselves between the public and these dangerous thugs sent to terrorize this American city.
