@MiddleOfMayhem I don't understand the militant attacks on every post by @StevenGreenstreet - are all these Twitter bros just taking Grusch & Co hearsay as 100% fact? Isn't a healthy dose of criticism warranted here? Greenstreet seems to be the only one saying, "Hold up, let's examine deeper."

How I know for a fact I’m a Milquetoast muppet: currently watching @joshuagates spend weeks climbing an impossible rainforest mountain in Colombia, discovering a lost city. And I can’t even go outside in my yard in Michigan rn b/c it’s “too hot” & there are “too many mosquitoes.”

Somehow we weathered and witnessed
A nation that isn't broken
but simply unfinished
There is always light
if only we're brave enough to see it
if only we're brave enough to be it.

7yo as Garth Brooks walks out: “I wouldn’t be surprised if he was in a Wild West movie.”

Did not expect to get so emotional watching this today.

Hey readers: this is a crap time so if you read a book and like it, drop the author an email or tag them in a post. You can’t imagine how much you’ll brighten someone’s day.

[Senator Kevin Hertel @Hertelforsenate]

There is a fence around the Michigan Capitol and downtown businesses are boarding up. Sad to think this could have all been avoided if one man said “I lost a fair and open election. @JoeBiden will be our next President”

👋 Hello, Twitter. Haven’t been on here for a long while. Feels good to be back.

[MG Buehrlen @mgbuehrlen]

@bethrevis 😂 they’re really not 😂

[MG Buehrlen @mgbuehrlen]

@bethrevis I know. Just chewing through life, aren’t they?! Mine is devouring every Star Wars book, every movie, every show, it’s all we talk about, he’s mad that the Mandalorian audiobook isn’t out yet, and I’m writing him Grogu stories he can read and illustrate himself in the meantime.😮

[MG Buehrlen @mgbuehrlen]

@LaurenThoman Absolutely. If anything, you’ll know you did what counted no matter what. You’re conscience will be clear.

[MG Buehrlen @mgbuehrlen]

@bethrevis Yes! And yours is five?! Good lord. We blinked.

[MG Buehrlen @mgbuehrlen]

@LaurenThoman Good lord 😳😳😳 Not sure what to do with that either.

[MG Buehrlen @mgbuehrlen]

@LaurenThoman I think about this a lot. I read a book called “the case against empathy” or something like that. Super interesting, b/c it suggests that these people are feeling empathy - intense empathy - but toward the other side, and says what is missing isn’t empathy but compassion. 🤔🤔🤔

[MG Buehrlen @mgbuehrlen]

@bethrevis FYI, my son (he’s 7) downloaded your book on audible and devoured it heartily. Loved loved loved it, and has listened about 5 times all the way through already. 🙏 Was very proud to discover he was reading your words!
