Been trying to make an appointment at @VirginiaDMV for months. Still no appointments... zero.

And their phones have been "experiencing a high call volume, resulting in a lengthy wait time" since March...

HELP! 🥺😡😟

To commemorate the 10-year anniversary of the 9/11 terrorist attacks, in 2011, I worked on this audio project with @JJGreenWTOP (when I was a @WTOP intern).

Now we're 19 years out. Still has relevance.

Guys, give this a read:

If you had to pick a 2020 goal in the time it took a traffic light to turn green, what would yours be?

My thought process just now: Someone really should invent a blanket for legs when one stands up...

...OH RIGHT. PANTS!

I think a rite of passage for local news journalists is going to a 10am city council meeting expecting it to be over by early afternoon, only years later you look back and realize it's actually still going on right now.

@maggierogers (And yes, I realize I'm in all likelihood the last of us to have this reaction.)

[Sara Gilgore @saragilgore]

I can't get @maggierogers' lyrics and melodies and rhythms out of my head. And I went hunting for the gems, the hidden ones, on the album. And absolutely failed, because each is so smart and poignant and powerful. All are worth a listen, guys. A close listen.

Guys look what's coming! A return to Panem in a prequel to the @TheHungerGames... https://t.co/2JJMSsnePL

Just finished Little Fires Everywhere, about 20 minutes ago, and then sat here digesting, processing, wondering. What a wonderful work of art. Thank you, @pronounced_ing, for creating it.

[Sara Gilgore @saragilgore]

Friends. If you haven't yet read @drewmagary's "The Night the Lights Went Out" ...do it. Great and important rec from @AndyMedici. https://t.co/ADsCPmUFpz

@connorDwalters Hey Conman! I know you’ve done Snowfall and probably The Guardian’s Firestorm (also from some years back but that one stuck with me so if not, check that out too).. but most recently I enjoyed this baby — and I think your students probably would, too: https://t.co/20gUeQvX8n

[Sara Gilgore @saragilgore]

There are so many good shows out there. So many I have yet to see, that I want to watch. And yet. Here I am, acutely in the mood to watch nothing other than Gilmore Girls, particularly the episode when Lorelai invites Dean over for movie night.. Can someone tell me why that is?

Check it out! You know Alabama as a football school, but @AlabamaRow is having one of its best seasons in history, including program-first Top 20 rankings. Read all about the fast-rising Crimson Tide in the latest @RowingNews! #rowing #RollTide @NCAA #Alabama

Thank you, @PopUpMag, for a very cool, unique, compelling experience tonight in D.C. at @DCWarnerTheatre. @connorDwalters and I are still debriefing. Awesome.
