@AndJustLikeThat Can you please consider bringing back Big's ex wife Barbara in Season 2, played by actress Noelle Beck Taslitz? Would love to see that storyline!

[Valerie Groth @valeriegroth]

Absolutely LOVE seeing @BerkleyPub run open submissions for unagented authors. Given I've heard this is "the worst time in history for new authors to find an agent" this is so encouraging!! Hope to see more publishing houses follow suit!!

This is amazing!! This 11 yr old boy spends hours upon hours reading to dogs at shelters - focusing on the ones that are especially hard to place with a family - to socialize them. Then, he makes animated videos for each dog to help them find a home 💜

[George Takei @GeorgeTakei]

The Supreme Court had the power to stop Texas from banning abortions after 6 weeks.

Joe Manchin has the power to stop Texas from suppressing black and brown votes.

Doing nothing when you have the power and obligation to act is cowardice. You are complicit.

[Judd Legum @JuddLegum]

This will come as a shock but the leadership of Texans for Lawsuit Reform includes 9 men and zero women

[Judd Legum @JuddLegum]

Doing some research on donors to Texas legislators who sponsored the state's new abortion ban — a law that allows ANYONE TO SUE ANYONE who helps a woman get an abortion in Texas and receive 10K

The top donor to the sponsors of this law?

TEXANS FOR LAWSUIT REFORM

Not a joke.

[Valerie Groth @valeriegroth]

I've donated to Planned Parenthood before, but wanted to do more so I'm now set up for monthly giving. Texas, you and your draconian laws are going down! @PPact

I've long said that every American should read The Handmaid's Tale. It starts off in such a clearly far-away dystopian world that the events seem too far-fetched, borderline farcical. But over time, drip by drip (continued)

#WomensRightsAreHumanRights

[Valerie Groth @valeriegroth]

and that's how it will play out here, too. What is happening in Texas is an appalling, misogynistic, and blatantly condones violence against women. Love to see the companies in this article who are speaking up against this (continued)
