Beautifully stated.

@SCUBAlaina Good luck (not that you need it)! You're going to blow them all away! Proud. Of. You. 🌊🦠🧬

Honestly, how do you people sleep at night? Or do you feel better because you gave money to my dance studio to "accomplish their dreams." It's like putting a band aid over a gaping bullet hole, that you caused. #Endrant.

[Marti Wagnon @marti_parti]

Imagine being so tone-deaf, so arrogant, that you repeatedly insist on building an unnecessary pipeline spanning 300 miles in a region that already suffers from environmental injustice under the guise that you are "helping" said region. Imagine.

[Marti Wagnon @marti_parti]

Imagine, even further, that you not only ignore personal accounts of the harm you have inflicted, but you demonize those speaking out against you. Gaslighting those whose lives have been destroyed so you could make an extra dollar.

I got my wisdom teeth removed today, and I still feel this nagging urge to be productive because I'm behind on everything right now. So, I'm working on my teaching portfolio. What is wrong with me? #Sendhelp #PhDStruggles #JobMarketStruggles

[Marti Wagnon @marti_parti]

The only thing helping me through the mid semester, dissertation writing, job market slump is the fact that Halloween is only 6 days away. 🎃💀👻🧙‍♀️🧟‍♀️

[Marti Wagnon @marti_parti]

When are we as a region going to wake up and see that the government has no interest in helping Appalachians - only using us? History repeats itself yet again.

This year, the pipeline industry has donated $331,000 to Senator Joe Manchin @Sen_JoeManchin – up from $20,000 in 2020. 😗🛢💵

@emsatter Shoot! I totally overlooked it! ☹️Sorry about that! But this picture definitely helps others see it, just in case they are as scatter brained as me, lol!!😅

[Marti Wagnon @marti_parti]

@emsatter @TriSalvagni @SaketBikmal @hanncho_ @votelacy @a_hallibu @jennleighlaw @StephenBiscotte @bikrumsinghgill Shared and donated! 🖤Although, it wouldn't let me comment for some reason! The donation was under my maiden name, Michelle Williams. 😃

Calling all Hokies! Can you spare a few dollars to help a displaced family in Kentucky? If so, please contribute using the link below. Any contribution helps! We are looking for 20 Hokies gifts to help this family recover from the significant flood damage. Thanks, y'all!

Any bill that tries to trample environmental and community protections from #FossilFuels and fast-track the Mountain Valley Pipeline is unacceptable! Make sure your legislators hear from you! #NoMVP #NoMVPSouthgate #StopMVP
