Hi. I’m Joe, grandson of Watergate prosecutor, Leon Jaworski. I’m a Democrat running against @TXAG Ken Paxton. RT and follow to help me rid TX of criminally-indicted Paxton who thinks he is above the law. #JaworskiforTXAG

[Joe Jaworski @JaworskiForTX]

I’m Joe Jaworski, a Democrat running to unseat Ken Paxton. RT and follow so we can bring real leadership to the TX AG office in 2022. #JaworskiforTX #JaworskiforTXAG #TurnTXBlue2022

TX govt. has six major issues to solve:

Roads and transportation;
Education;
Utilities and services;
Public safety;
Natural disaster response; and
Public health infrastructure.

I’m tired of those who choose to fight culture wars instead of doing their job. #JaworskiForTexas

@JaworskiForTX @MollyBSnackin Sounds good, Joe.

Returning from Spain, my son just went through immigration at #JFKairport. Filled out a form and had his temp taken on the plane. They gave him a handout on quarantine. He made it through everything in less than an hour.

[George Thompson @geothomp]

@kattyrincox Thanks @kattyrincox. My son is coming in to JFK from Spain later today. Can you keep us posted on how it goes? Thanks. Where are you flying in from?

Today’s the day. First day of conference with a selection of workshops. How to choose! #ddpkansascity2019

[DDP Network @ddpnetwork]

Great buzz here as our workshop is about to begin. Deb Dana a polyvagal theory to safety and connection @ddpnetwork #ddpkansascity2019

[DDP Network @ddpnetwork]

Polyvagal theory is the science of connection. Feeling safe enough to falll in love with life. @ddpnetwork #ddpkansascity2019

[DDP Network @ddpnetwork]

A change in the way we think about the autonomic nervous system. A predictable hierarchy rather than a balance system @ddpnetwork #ddpkansascity2019

[DDP Network @ddpnetwork]

We have a drive to survive and need to feel safe enough to fulfill our longing to connect @ddpnetwork #ddpkansascity2019

[DDP Network @ddpnetwork]

Understanding our nervous system reduces shame and opens up curiosity @ddpnetwork #ddpkansascity2019

[DDP Network @ddpnetwork]

A traumatised nervous system dysregulates and gets stuck there @ddpnetwork #ddpkansascity2019

[DDP Network @ddpnetwork]

ANS adapts to survive in trauma which denies social connection @ddpnetwork #ddpkansascity2019

[DDP Network @ddpnetwork]

Trauma is a chronic disruption of connectedness (Porges) @ddpnetwork #ddpkansascity2019

[DDP Network @ddpnetwork]

From a state of connection (social engagement) health, growth and restoration are possible @ddpnetwork #ddpkansascity2019

[DDP Network @ddpnetwork]

Polyvagal theory is a hopeful theory because the nervous system can be reshaped @ddpnetwork #ddpkansascity2019
