@DukeEnergy the state of my house/power lines in St. Pete. The tree compromised the roof; I can’t remove the it/repair the roof or metal shed until crews remove power lines & stabilize the pole. I’ve called to report the issue — only ensuring someone sees the images. Thanks

Help us spread the word!
Glitter-filled flotation devices are no fun for our environment: These novelty floats w/ glitter inside pollute waterways when they fail, endangering the environment & wildlife, incl manatees.
If you own one, please do NOT use it in a spring/ waterway.

"They could have evacuated."
"Why didn't they evacuate?"
"That's what you get for not evacuating."

As a lifelong Florida resident who grew up low-income on Sanibel Island which has been destroyed by #Ian hear me when I say this:

Evacuating is HARD.

In a statement about Hurricane Ian, the director of the Save the Manatee Club encourages residents to keep an eye out for stranded manatees once it is safe to do so, and to report sightings. https://t.co/3yxSpv1nuY

⚡️ BREAKING ⚡️

1,000 fast-food workers at San Francisco International Airport are on strike.

Most of us haven't had a raise in three years, and we're tired of working two or even three jobs just to survive. So we're fighting back.

This is a MAJOR victory. Congratulations to the Minor League Baseball players who organized to make it happen. I hope the Commissioner and MLB will move just as quickly to negotiate a fair first contract.

Will people ever stop saying “the intern running the Twitter account?”

I’ve done paid social media work for 14 years. People get degrees in it now. And it tends to pay well. It’s so cringe to see people using 20 year-old tropes.
