I knocked doors all day, + I was floored by how many ppl, mostly older women (but not all), cried talking about #abortion. In #Oklahoma. This is a whole new battlefield they don't know how to fight on, but they want to. Something feels different. Changed. Let's harness it.
@PhilipPullman they lost everything. Though she was able to rescue the signature and turn it into a bookmark, I am trying to find her new ones. If I can find first editions, is there any way I can mail them to you (plus return postage) for signing? #shotinthedark#c

Barely wanted to fuck around with a publicly-traded Twitter, definitely don't want to fuck around with a privately-owned one.
Not gunna stick around to see how it plays out either.

The J6 Select Committee hearing today in a TL;DR nutshell - Trump was warned. He was given an explanation. Nevertheless, he persisted. #January6thHearings
Baltimore prosecutors formally dropped charges against Adnan Syed today. The 2014 @serial podcast on his case was the first podcast I ever listened to. Today I'm no less curious what the hell Jay Wilds was thinking and how he sleeps at night.
All morning I've been following the epic struggle of this black widow and caterpillar it caught in it's web on my front porch.
After this video, the struggle continued for another 5 minutes until the widow retreated to her corner. For a rest? I dunno. I'm no arachnologist. 1/
CAMPAIGN UPDATE- @OKCPS confirms Jena Nelson is taking a leave of absence to focus on her campaign against Ryan Walters for state superintendent.
Effective immediately -- she's stepping away from her 6th and 7th grade classroom but is still employed by the district. @OKCFOX
Let's "focus on Nov" AND talk attending school board meetings/empowerment of boards to push back. Can we support teachers for another walkout? Compounded by 2 yrs of COVID affected Ed, how can we support the high schoolers w/o qualified teachers? I need more. We all do. /end rant
After yesterday's #primaryrunoff results and the resignation of a Norman high school English teacher over providing info on how students may access books, I need more than "volunteer, donate, and vote in November." In a state like OK, that feels akin to "thoughts and prayers." /1
I see nervous parents asking what can be done NOW to help, mitigate, change bc we are seeing the intended impact of #HB1775 already. Maybe the answer is "nothing." But we've had a top down, "focus on Nov" view for years, and I want to add more to the convo again. /4
Trying to explain to my four-year-old why "bare" isn't pronounced "bar", even though "are" isn't pronounced "air", feels like trying to explain quantum physics 😂
Congratulations, Natalie. I'm so glad young 2SLGBTQIA+ disc golfers can see themselves reflected in the players excelling at the elite level. 🏳️⚧️ #PDGA#DiversityMatters
