Y’all these fireworks are scaring the crap out of my dog. It’s all fun and games until you see your pup walking around the house panicked out of her mind. #dogsoftwitter

@Delta I’ve been on the phone for over 2 hours.

Never ever again try to tell me that only policy, not character matters in our political leaders. Ever.

Just spoke to my 69-year-old mother. First thing she said: "If these people would have been Black, then they ALL would be dead."

I can’t even imagine what would happen if teachers and school staffs only worked their contractual hours, only fulfilled their contractual duties and only used the resources their schools provided.

@gopikashine Lol what a time to be alive

[Dr. Jill Biden @DrBiden]

Thank a nurse today.

[Jasmine Romero @RomeroNyc]

People don't get praised enough for quitting jobs that they hate.

[Rachel Varkey @RachelVarkey]

Yo. Thank God. #bidenharis2020

@charlesSAMUEL_ and I got our absentee ballots yesterday. I repeat yesterday. We will rush deliver our absentee ballot if we have to. #TurnTXBlue

[Texas Tribune @TexasTribune]

Queer Eye’s Jonathan Van Ness never got his Texas absentee ballot that he requested.

Here's how he still voted — and how you can too if you’re in a similar situation. https://t.co/Vcq0RSYfjU

Shout out to my boo, my incredible friends, and family who are always building my confidence and reminding me of my worth, value, and capability— especially when the world would rather bring me down and keep me low. I’m so lucky.

[Rachel Varkey @RachelVarkey]

Honestly, this piece of humanity gives me so much hope. Kids deserve to be kids - despite how crazy 2020 has been for adults and how over worked we must appear to them.

[David Teicher @Aerocles]

Absolutely LOVE this from our school district superintendent.

Sure, we could do virtual classes on snow days now, but why would we take *another* thing away from the kids?

I dunno what it says about me but this email almost made me cry

[Rachel Varkey @RachelVarkey]

I wonder if anyone else places this much pressure on themselves when it comes to work. And if you do struggle with this, what do you do to mitigate the pressure?

[Rachel Varkey @RachelVarkey]

I’m struggling with finding my voice in the work setting. I spend a lot of time doubting myself, not trusting my instincts, and ultimately feeling like every wrong turn could end up in losing everything I’ve worked for.

[Rachel Varkey @RachelVarkey]

I’ve never appreciated being at home as much I am this trip. I don’t know if I’m more conscious of my family’s goodness and weakness or I’ve just not taking the time for granted anymore because of #COVID19. It feels good.

[Rachel Varkey @RachelVarkey]

@VP Please stop leaning on your convenient use of Christianity to usher in wishy washy Christians who vote on hot button issues and don’t look to the entire story of Jesus to direct their belief system. #VPDebate

[Rachel Varkey @RachelVarkey]

As @KamalaHarris stands her ground despite, I’m proud to have her as an example. She is being exactly who she is. Let’s be exactly who we are.

[Rachel Varkey @RachelVarkey]

Watching the #VPDebate triggers every time I’ve had a professional conversation with a man and felt like one misspoke or word taken out context can completely distort what I stand for. What terrifies me is THAT lack of grace has made me question what positions I can hold.

[zellie @zellieimani]

This moderator has the courage to moderate Kamala Harris but not Mike Pence. Can someone explain why? #Debates2020
