world travel on a whim | late nights & early mornings | cocktails & dreams | caffeine | a wink & a smile | sassy stewardess | pretty things && clever words.

[Governor Josh Shapiro @GovernorShapiro]

Universal free breakfast for every public school student is a reality in Pennsylvania.

[Dan Rather @DanRather]

I end tonight with a prayer of thanks to all those desperately fighting for the future of freedom. Many never expected to be in this position, defending their country and by extension all of us. We who go to bed in safety owe them all a deep debt of gratitude. #GodSpeedUkraine 🇺🇦

when a passenger is mad at the airline and somehow thinks they’re proving a point by not taking a drink from the flight attendants

@USPSHelp I mailed out over 100 letters almost two weeks ago from the 7th&Arch location in Philadelphia. Not one recipient has received their letter. I handed directly to counterperson. Please advise! This is time sensitive!

@FEMAregion3 @2ndMLG How do you make an appointment for a vaccine? Just show up if eligible? Or through the city’s health department?

[Neil deGrasse Tyson @neiltyson]

We’re just sayin’. To abolish mask -wearing laws in some States while the rest of the Nation keeps theirs is like designating a peeing section of the swimming pool.

[Sen. Bernie Sanders @SenSanders]

If Rob Walton, a key owner of Walmart, can afford an estimated $226 million for an antique car collection that includes 12 Ferraris, 6 Porsches, 2 Maseratis and a 1963 Corvette Grand Sport Roadster, you know what? Walmart can afford to pay at least $15/hour to all of its workers.

[Robert Reich @RBReich]

So let me get this straight: essential workers are essential to keeping the economy going, but it's not essential to pay them a living wage?

[hschreiner @hschreiner]

this is insane to me —

“Let’s host a family friendly, middle-America summer street fair...”

and in the same breath —
“...but in order to do so, we’ll raffle off a gun.” #berkscounty

[Vice President Kamala Harris Archived @VP46Archive]

Yesterday, @POTUS and I met with labor leaders. Unions built the middle class, and we look forward to working alongside them to strengthen our nation’s infrastructure, and create good, union-jobs.

[Gene Wu @GeneforTexas]

Guess which US Senator from Texas flew to Cancun while the state was freezing to death and having to boil water?

[John Fetterman @JohnFetterman]

If you’re opposed to raising the minimum wage to $15 hr, you should work and live on our current minimum wage to demonstrate for the rest of us, exactly how one can survive or feed a family on $7.25 hr.

[Ilhan Omar @IlhanMN]

Raising the minimum wage to $15 would lift 900,000 out of poverty.

It’s time!

[Team Katie @TeamKatiePorter]

The student debt crisis is a drag on our economy, and it'll hamper our collective recovery if we don't take action. Student debt relief would benefit us all by stimulating the economy and getting us out of this mess sooner. It's essential we include it in the next rescue package.

Four years ago I cried painful tears, today I cried joyous ones.

One of the best humans I know had some thoughts on watching U.S. Capitol Police Officer Eugene Goodman face down that mob of Trump-loving insurrectionists that was steps away from the floor of the Senate. Sharing here, with his permission.

Dear Congress:

You should never have to feel unsafe or need to hide under your desk.

Sincerely,
Every PreK-12 Student and Educator in America

I applaud the people brave enough to leave the Trump administration now. It takes courage.

After airline flights, I too have been known to unbuckle my seatbelt moments before the aircraft has "come to a complete stop," so I have experienced this level of courage first hand.

[Elizabeth Warren @SenWarren]

Betsy DeVos has never done her job to help America’s students. It doesn’t surprise me one bit that she’d rather quit than do her job to help invoke the 25th Amendment.

Good riddance, Betsy. You were the worst Secretary of Education ever. https://t.co/im1IgGQVSp
