#primevideo @amazon @PrimeVideo #nbaplayyoffs You do understand that we are paying for watching the playoffs and the feed is freezing up. We’ve lost most of the first quarter. #amazonsucks.

@hgtv Interesting that you have cut the programs with gay men as hosts (#BargainBlock), a Black couple (#marriedtorealestate) and an Hispanic man (#Izzy). Hmm. #bigotry #LGBTQ There are other good things on TV, just in case you aren’t clear we all have a choice.

@AmericanIdol This will be the first season I will not be watching. The new judge supports a rapist. Done. The Voice is pretty good, come to find out. So sorry you all waded into politics. #TrumpisaNationalDisgrace #MeToo #TheVoice #sexism #Diversity

@Matthewtravis08 The same from me.

@MSNBC Just heard @jeremypeters of @nytimes say “most older people are”stubborn. Just substitute “older people” with “women” “people of color” and look at your bigotry. Personality disregarded people are stubborn. That’s diagnostic. You’re a bigot. Shame on all of you on panel

[Jan Bidwell @janbidwell]

@jerichobrown Love you more than you could know. So good to my son. There will never be a very best person. We just need good enough. All must also check jdgmnts of a Black/Asian woman. Misogyny runs deep in every soul.

[Jan Bidwell @janbidwell]

@jerichobrown In a future, better world we could be safe if we only voted for the very best person. In today’s real world, if you don’t vote for Harris we will lose our safety, rights, and be very, very clear, many will lose their lives. I’m 73. Been voting 52 yrs. Votes have consequences

@jerichobrown She’s my Congresswoman and she’ll be my Senator. Worked on past campaigns. She approved my grant for a crisis response team in Lansing. She’s exactly how she appears. No BS.

[Jan Bidwell @janbidwell]

@rickygervais Loved #humanitynetflix I’m a social worker. Laughter is life saving. Sense of humor is diagnostic. Those who don’t have one suffer. You always make me fall apart with laughter, and I also always cry. Brilliant. Thanks. I’m Barry’s age. Sounds like an upright guy

@LarisaSkists @CDBaby They have lost my music files and my art…TWICE! No phone calls. I’ve been asking for weeks to find out where my music is located. One person said she would check “IF” we can go forward. My 5th album. Already paid. They took my money.

[Jan Bidwell @janbidwell]

@NickUSA01 @TristanSnell No one went toward the towers unless they were in first responder gear. They don’t let anyone in. My friends died there. Other friends got out. Friends who went down there are now ill. I lived in Bergen county NJ. He didn’t see it that day and NO ONE was allowed there but NYFD

[Jan Bidwell @janbidwell]

@CNN Who is the guy who just said a child bearing their parent’s child isn’t anyone in PA’s reality? #sexualassault is a reality everywhere. HE hasn’t been assaulted. #sexism #abortion #WomensRights

[Jan Bidwell @janbidwell]

@TheRichFromCali No.

[Jan Bidwell @janbidwell]

@CollinRugg Hitler would be proud.

[Jan Bidwell @janbidwell]

@lawandordertv Please, PLEASE, be accurate with EMDR on Special Victims. People actually need this treatment for PTSD. Easy to do accurately.

[Jan Bidwell @janbidwell]

@billmaher I’d like to see research on how trigger warnings provoke dread. Waiting for cyclical abuse to start (dread) is devastating, so let’s just not bake that in via trigger warnings, could make things worse.

[Jan Bidwell @janbidwell]

@MSNBC As per mental illness and violence Rob D’Mico: DO call police if someone is endangering and mentally ill. You can go in front of a judge and get an order of commitment. Also stand up to insurance cos that decide length of treatment. Few mentally ill are dangerous.Some are.

[Jan Bidwell @janbidwell]

@Cookunity Shame on you. Charged for two weeks of food and never got any. Tried to cancel and got blocked from my account. Trying to find a better platform to give bad review. Don’t ask me to DM. #greed #badservice #ripoff #ShameOnYou
