@codylcoggins @SheaSerrano I was wondering the same! Must be.

[Megan Douglas @megdouglas]

@michele_norris It’s a line from this song, which I should have credited at the outset. Anyway, your tweet really resonated with me, and came right on time. Thank you. Cheers and love to you for doing the work out loud and in the quiet. https://t.co/odLnxEGQ2H

Shit don’t come with trophies…

[Michele Norris @michele_norris]

Do the work because it needs to be done, because it is your calling & perhaps even your passion. Do the work knowing that reward or recognition may not come in your lifetime, if at all. Do the work even though it will make some uncomfortable. Some of us see you & love you for it

[Megan Douglas @megdouglas]

@michele_norris Yes, that would be pretty much the honor of my life.

[Megan Douglas @megdouglas]

Yes. This is it exactly.

[Preston Broadus, Esq. @gerardinho9]

Enraged. How much more violence are we going to be okay with? Oh, that’s right. ALL of it.

[Megan Douglas @megdouglas]

@gerardinho9 That is the truest of all the takes. Hard to even sum it up, and hard to confront how fast it keeps coming. Thank you for this.

@DenverPolice what was happening at the corner of MLK and Franklin? Tons of cops and caution tape.

[Megan Douglas @megdouglas]

@Coach_ib_ @CasTaughtMe @rabiasquared Absolutely. Isn’t it wild to think about how many unlikely things had to come together for this to happen? It’s mind boggling to think of how many cases would be just as captivating, if they could get the airtime.

@AndyKnny You could play a game….is it Northfield? Is it Stanley Marketplace? Trick question. It’s all of them!!!

[Megan Douglas @megdouglas]

@AndyKnny It looks just like every other sterile corporate faux urban development.

@pgranfield LeBron James 1000%

@TooDopeTeachers @LupeFiasco You’ve definitely improved on the design and done something new, no doubt about that.

[Megan Douglas @megdouglas]

@Savannah__P I just try to be more specific. Like, do I mean that’s surprising? Or that doesn’t make any sense? Or that seems super unrealistic?

[Megan Douglas @megdouglas]

@adamconner Same! Tho in our case this time it was $8 😭

[Megan Douglas @megdouglas]

@JaneLindholm My kids at that age bonded over audio joke books. But those are supremely annoying for adults. Is the 8yo too cool for the Beverly Clearly ouvre?

[Megan Douglas @megdouglas]

This is fucking wild. Of all the things that will make us safer, this isn’t it, fam. Far from it.

NEW: @POTUS announced the Safer America Plan to increase police funding, combat drug trafficking, prevent ‘smash and grabs,’ and make sure Americans feel safe.

I’m also glad to see the White House commit to getting 100,000 additional police officers on the nation's streets.

[Megan Douglas @megdouglas]

This thread is so beautiful. A philosophy to live by.

[Megan Douglas @megdouglas]

@OhNoSheTwitnt @emimelick Omg yes. This.
