@AskTSA If I am flying domestically with a license that expired the day before (and flying back 4 days later) should I bring any other IDs/documents with me? I do not have any gov't issued photo IDs that aren't expired. Thank you!

@lindaholmes I'm a school nutrition director and I can tell you I have reached the point of burnout and just feel like a zombie most days. And my cooks, who have been feeding kids since March despite all other district staff being home, feel the same.

@Kristan_Higgins You never corrected and you've lost a follower and reader. Don't try to be on the correct side of history while spreading lies.

[Maggie @MaggieMaggio]

@Kristan_Higgins I hope you delete this post and share a link to accurate information by state. Please be part of the solution, not the problem. And please don't make me retroactively dislike your boss!

The #NobelPrize committee couldn't reach Paul Milgrom to share the news that he won, so his fellow winner and neighbor Robert Wilson knocked on his door in the middle of the night.

CARRIE: "You're not going to wear a mask?"
MR. BIG: "What? If I die, I die. That's life, toots."

[typing] Mr. Big refusing to wear a mask made me think about the masks he DID wear. What was he afraid of? I couldn't help but wonder: could feelings be as contagious as covid-19?

@thebestjasmine And remember there are lots of other adults in schools. Like cooks, many of whom have reported to work every day since school closures began.

@EliaWinters They'll be eating together. Probably in a classroom. 6 feet apart. And eating the same cold food over and over. (School nutrition director here and it absolutely sucks from all sides.) (Also love Northampton, I'm a Mt Holyoke grad!)

[Maggie @MaggieMaggio]

@iugirljenn @DanaGoldstein @elizashapiro Yes, but if students go back how do meals work? In the classroom? The logistics of that are a nightmare. And if half are in school and half are distance how do you have the staff and equipment to feed both ways? What rules will USDA and state agencies have in place?

@AuthorMaddyHill @sarahmaclean If they're like me and my amazing staff they're just putting their heads down and doing it. School nutrition heros can do truly do anything we put our minds to.

[Maggie @MaggieMaggio]

@sarahmaclean Yes, the district I work for is no where near as big as NYC but we are 74% free and reduced. During distance learning we fed 25% of our students. It's scary.

@CarolineMoss St Paul MN. Happens here all year. Even in MN winters.

@lindaholmes It didn't leave a scar, but 2 boys in my art class decided to play Frisbee with one of these blocks...and that's how I got my first concussion.

[Maggie @MaggieMaggio]

why do so many authors feel the need to dress their under 30 male characters in black jeans? I don't remember the last time I saw a man under 60 wearing black jeans.

@lindaholmes Happy birthday, Brian. My Lady's adopt-a-versary is May 18 and my birthday is this month, too. May is a great month for a bday!

@aunaptural @seattlebecca @FantasticYeasts @indyfromspace At least here in MN schools receive money from the state based on number of school days and student attendance on those days. So there's a budget, but the money isn't in hand unless the days happen and students attend.
