It’s very weird to me that companies are requiring a master’s degree for a salary less than 60k. I really wish we would all just go on strike.

I still can’t believe the Biden Administration is just content with leaving American citizens to fend for themselves surrounded by extremist fundamentalists.
We’ve got to get our people out of Texas.

It's a mystery to me that anti-vaxxers, who are also against wearing masks, say "God will protect me from COVID," not seeming to understand that their god created masks and also created the scientists who created the vaccine in order to protect them from COVID.

I will never forget the woman I met in the Rochester airport who disclosed to me she was wearing a face covering from a Web site called fakemask[dot]com. It's what it sounds like. My mind is blown that people would pay for a thing to intentionally not work. And now this. I... 🤔

It’s weird how Google couldn’t find a single instance of @SenatorSinema mentioning John Lewis as her “personal hero” when he was alive.

We made a new documentary. It’s about how fighting between cops badly escalated tensions when protesters took over a 14-lane interstate bridge hours after Rayshard Brooks was killed by an Atlanta officer: ajc.com/news/video-de-escala…
