Three weeks ago, my Dad tested positive for COVID-19. He passed away today a little after noon.

We don't have a specific cause of death. I don't suppose it matters. Not really.

He was my Dad and he is gone.

It’s clear that populist messaging on both sides of the aisle works, full stop.

@SabrinaAnnLynn is a lot of fun, for sure, but for #Dazzler, I'm still hoping for @SamanthaBarks. She has amazing vocal and acting skills, although I admit to not knowing how well she rollerskates. @MarvelStudios

@jdawsey1 The Smithsonian isn’t under the executive branch—executive orders don’t direct it. While it gets federal funding and the VP sits on its board, it operates independently as a unique federal trust, not a government agency. Part public, part private, totally autonomous.

y’all remember when Nickelodeon would shut down for a whole day and told kids to go touch grass?
