Congratulations @BeccaBalintVT and her team! When I’d heard she hired @natsilvervt I called the race for Becca right then and there. Way to go, Natalie!

I just gave birth six days ago.
No one- NO ONE- should ever have to go through pregnancy and childbirth unless it’s the best choice for them. They are life threatening, life altering experiences.
My husband to me while getting ready for work: Ok, who’s your favorite Renaissance artist and why is it Caravaggio?
This is why I married him.

Kallgren is really taking me back to my childhood as a @MapleLeafs fan.
That’s not a good thing.
I don’t want to armchair coach, but someone should point out to him that the point of being a goalie is *stopping* the puck. #goleafsgo
We have a relative who came out as trans a few years ago. My grandma will be 98 this summer. She has 98 years of information stored in her brain, so sometimes she mixes up details. (Saying “Augusta” instead of “Atlanta” for example.) 1/2

The clip of Stacey going door to door with two little girls just undid me. That’s why we run.
I’m running for Governor because opportunity in our state shouldn’t be determined by zip code, background or access to power. #gapol

If you aren’t paying attention to Canadian Twitter about @De6rasse’s gold medal win, you’re missing out.
PSA: a silver medal at the Olympics is an incredible accomplishment.
Making it to the Olympics at all is amazing, but medaling at the Olympics is absolutely incredible.
Don’t you dare say a disparaging word about athletes who take silver or bronze.

If there’s someone you look up to and/or admire, you *can* send them a message and let them know you think they’re awesome.
Ask them if they’re willing to answer a question or two.
The worst they can say is no, which you can handle.
Just try it. See what happens.
My husband:
“Here’s a question- and it’s random, but it’s a legitimate question- I wonder how zorses interact with zebras and horses. What if it wasn’t raised with either?”
I think the relief and joy of yesterday is getting to me.
Today I bought decorations for my daughter’s first birthday (for which there will be no party or gathering) from a store that goes by “PocketFullOfGlitter”.
Is this what it feels like to feel alive again?

Vermont Representative @PeterWelch just shared on the floor that we can’t have unity without accountability.
YES. Proud Vermonter right here. 🙋🏼
Update: found the gifts on December 27 in a bag of non perishable groceries.
Of course. 🤦🏼
Clear indication I’m becoming my mother: ordered Christmas gifts in October. They arrived in November and I hid them someplace safe where they wouldn’t be discovered. A week before Christmas: can’t find them.

I’m hugely pro vax and will be getting vaccinated against COVID when I’m eligible...but I just want to put this out there:
As someone with severe (and sometimes debilitating) needle phobia, now is not a fun time to be scrolling on social media.
