Just a girl still trying to figure out the world, eat as much Taco Bell as possible, and find ever-lasting happiness.

@AskCapitalOne I am looking at a United Basic Economy ticket in your travel portal. It says a carry-on bag is included but on United's website they say Basic Economy does not come with a carry-on. Can you clarify?

This is the downside.

@marfrisky Definitely agree. I'm just not sure the for-profit media will be able to do it. They're a business and coverage of him gets ratings. If one network doesn't cover him they'll risk losing viewers to a network that does. :(

When you really want to be excited and happy but somehow you're very worried about the potential for a coup AND that Trump will run again in 4 years (if coup unsuccessful) AND that he'll plague us via the media until then.😬😬😬

[Don’t Boo…Revolt! @BreeNewsome]

Some people really want divided gov’t. They wanted Trump out but don’t want Biden to have a Congress that would allow him to do much of anything, especially anything particularly progressive. That’s why flipping the senate seats in GA on Jan 5 is so key.

this from @AOC is spot on, and no one who seriously cares about the future of the democratic party should disagree with it. https://t.co/l0mgZ5MqsH

In 2016 I started watching the West Wing to soothe my soul and also apparently because I hate myself because I cried during every episode. Seeing some West Wing gifs today and it's making me think it might be worth a more joyful rewatch. 🙃

This country has many opportunities to learn and grow. Obviously. Our understanding of, care for, and even bare minimum acknowledgement of Native people is one such opportunity. And each of us can start doing that on our own tomorrow!

[Rebecca Nagle @rebeccanagle]

Last night @CNN called Native voters “something else”.

In an election largely driven by race, the media still fails to accurately cover voters of color.

For Native Americans, we’re not even named.

[Lucas Brown Eyes @LucasBrownEyes]

Right now. That 270 Vote route to win. Hinges on a historically red state, Arizona, flipping.
The margin is 93K.
There are 330,000 potential Native voters in AZ. Yet the media still refuses to even say our names.

Say it with me...

NATIVES ARE IMPORTANT.

Very responsible of the Democrats to rig the election, but not take the Senate or a supermajority in the House

Many libraries are allowing you to get a digital library card number during the pandemic without proving your residency (which often involves going in person within a certain amount of time to prove you live or work in that library's jurisdiction).

[lentilstweets @lentilstweets]

If you don't have yet a library card and the Libby app, do it today! The user interface is amazing, and you can rent audiobooks and e-books. Today I was able to download So You Want To Talk About Race by Ijeoma Oluo on audiobook without even needing to put it on hold first.

the worst movie trope is when a protag wakes up after a hookup and the guy/girl is gone... and just when our hero writes them off forever... they come back in with coffee and croissants like “gotta have breakfast!” This DOES NOT happen and besides it’s a logistical nightmare!!

I wish more people knew that BMI was developed in the 1800s by a Belgian astronomer and only accounted for data from white dudes.

And that is was *NEVER EVER* intended to be used on the individual level and much less for medical diagnosis.
