I'm an editor for @Daily_Press and @virginianpilot. I pace in the front yard during work calls and I think it worries the neighbors.

@JeffESchapiro @RTDNEWS Thank you, Jeff.

Please don’t destroy my city

Breaking the Twitter hiatus solely for the benefit of @briancolligan and @jtuckermartin

@vpaige For a change, I’m glad I opened Twitter. 🙂
We have a landing page for all of our election preview stuff - and there’s a lot.

@briancolligan @jtuckermartin Oh come on y’all. Piggly Wiggly and Tinee Giant are just sitting there.

[Brian Root @EdditorRoot]

@mattzollerseitz Silence of the Lambs and Cape Fear at @narocinema in 1991. It was a lot. :)

@AP He's charged with a felony, not sure how you got to "traffic violation"

[Brian Root @EdditorRoot]

@craigcalcaterra Ernie would go with him because they’ve been co-dependent for 55 years.

[Brian Root @EdditorRoot]

@mechelleh Thought for sure he was gonna go after Pusha in that. little disappointed, tbh

[Brian Root @EdditorRoot]

@Jared_Carrabis If it were me, Step 1 would involve a blank check that hopefully spells Anthopoulos correctly

[Brian Root @EdditorRoot]

OK, so how could the governor of Virginia go about messing with his state's largest employer, the Newport News shipyard? I think it's declaring an environmental disaster in the James River and banning all motorized transport, but your mileage may vary.

Did Fla Gov Ron DeSantis just threaten to build a new state prison on Reedy Creek land next to Disney World? Also said maybe a state park or another amusement park, too. https://t.co/NSmeC6MZSJ

@DPMCanty I really want to know where this dude gets health care so I can make, like, four appointments there

The Law of Unintended Consequences remains undefeated

[NWS Tsunami Alerts @NWS_NTWC]

⛔@Twitter is now limiting automated tweets and as a result, this account can no longer post all #Tsunami Warnings, Advisories, Watches, and Information Statements as they are issued. We will make every effort to continue manual posts 🧵(1/5)

Every single remote control

[No Context Brits @NoContextBrits]

You're a burglar, but you only steal things to slightly inconvenience your victims.

What are you stealing?

[Brian Root @EdditorRoot]

@kentbabb @HV3_Golf That's a tremendous story. Really, really good.

[Brian Root @EdditorRoot]

@adamjohnsonNYC @iamIanMunro Has the national divorce happened already and I missed it? Bummer.

[Brian Root @EdditorRoot]

Little-known fact: "U.S. media" is a synonym for "media organizations in New York."
In a totally unrelated story, @iamIanMunro wrote this almost a year ago(!).

up to 15 million people were casually thrown off medicaid this week and basically no one in TV media noticed or cared. I wrote about how bipartisan gutting of "pandemic-era" aid barely gets a mention in US media because its victims are obscure and poor. https://t.co/vUdmUpTaH4
