I’m unhappy at the election results so far but I’m not calling voter fraud. Isn’t that interesting? Because we know 100% if tRUMP was losing that’s ALL we’d be hearing. So it’s fair voting if he wins but election fraud if he loses? Gtfooh.

You know that bear question? Well I have another one for you. If you’re out in the woods would you rather run into an immigrant or a white nationalist? Being an “illegal” immigrant doesn’t mean you’re a rapist, murderer, etc. I’d 100% rather run into an immigrant in the woods.

A pretty good night for me to watch a baseball game. I think the Dodgers realized an old fan was in the house. My very first Dodgers game when I was about 12 they had a walk off grand slam. #WorldSeries

BREAKING: In a terrifying moment, Donald Trump just threatened to take away CBS’ license to report the news. This is exactly what a fascist would do. Retweet to make sure every American sees this and knows how dangerous Trump is.

Trump and Vance want to open up federal lands for housing. In other words Trump will open up national parks for development.

This #BannedBooksWeek, WNDB is supporting a middle school library in northern Virginia that has faced an onslaught of book challenges since 2021. Can you help us replace their decades-old bookshelves and fill those shelves with diverse books? đź’» bit.ly/BannedBooksWeekWNDB

I didn’t set out to write a short novel with The Everybody Experiment. That’s simply how the book turned out but I’m pleased to see there’s a demand for short mg.
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 Can’t build reading stamina with 300 page books. And these readers don’t want to read Magic Tree House. They are a lost group of readers who may never develop the reading skills and love of reading we all work so hard to foster.—pswetland ow.ly/ukxA50TmPWN

The fact that a competent and qualified Black woman has to go up for a job against a clearly incompetent and unhinged man is such a spot on representation of so much of the experience of being a Black woman in this world #Debate2024
