Is yesterday's episode of jeopardy playing on @KHQLocalNews right now?

@BrentReser @sidneyreser You gotta go for the hams! And the video bonus!

They're aggressive, travel in big groups & their meat is tasty = ‘a trifecta of bad characteristics for a species that wants to survive in human-dominated landscapes’ WSU’s Dan Thornton, lead author of study on white-lipped peccaries @nytimes https://t.co/kE28iJ8tfX #wildlife

@Phil_Friend I'll probably resort to that, same for Jojo Rabbit since I missed that in theaters. IDK about you, but I have no real motivation to see Joker. Maybe it's super hero burnout, maybe its all the brouhaha.

[RJ Wolcott @WolcottR]

@Phil_Friend 1917 is a must-see in theaters. The only nominee that I'm worried about not seeing is Parasite thanks to living in a fairly small town.

Historic day in conservation - the Kirtland's warbler is the first songbird to be removed from the endangered species list, and one of few to be removed because they were recovered, wildlife officials said.

@chronicle My story from February on the trend among Michigan's public universities: https://t.co/FGTWif2hKl

Very interested to see how the rule changes outlined in this @chronicle report play out in Michigan, where admissions directors are already contending with fewer high school seniors to recruit and concerns about cost https://t.co/tAPcnFcRfa

@Graham_Couch Everything out here is great, nice to have a football team that can score points (although apparently not enough last week)

[RJ Wolcott @WolcottR]

It's no Spartan Stadium, but it has its charm. Go Cougs!

[RJ Wolcott @WolcottR]

I was extremely fortunate to work with Matt at @LSJNews, and I'm excited to read the story next week!

[Matt Mencarini @MattMencarini]

For 2 1/2 years at the @LSJNews, I covered the Nassar cases and MSU’s failures.

I started at the @courierjournal in March thinking I was done. But it turned out there was another story to tell. You can read it next week.

It’s the story of Rachael Denhollander’s great sacrifice.

Dennis is 72 years old, and is the star of karaoke night at a college bar in East Lansing.

"Dennis is a local treasure. I'm just waiting for him to go viral."

@karaberg95 I always looked forward to seeing Dennis perform at Crunchy's on karaoke nights! So glad @SarahGLehr wrote this
