Shout out to the @SouthwestAir reps fielding (rightfully) angry calls 24 hrs/day for an issue that they didn’t create and can’t control. I’ve been there, and it takes a toll.

Fat bear season is almost upon us
When you think of a fat bear what qualities do you look for? Whatever fat factor you favor, the time to vote which Brooks bear you think is fattest is right around the corner. We are 2 weeks away from #FatBearWeek and only 1 week from Fat Bear Junior! Photo courtesy of K. Moore
Also, I’d really like @iamjohnoliver and @LastWeekTonight to do a story on religious hospitals and how various churches are buying up hospitals all over the country which greatly impacts care for many. Please and thank you. I’d be forever grateful.

We had to say goodbye to my sweet girl this week. It’s so hard to let our fur babies go, even when it’s the clear loving choice. I will miss my little shadow so much 💔

My contribution: if you have to remember to grab something before leaving the house, put your car keys on top of that thing. Also every time I get out of the car or close the trunk, I make myself look at the keys and say out loud, “I have the keys”.

I’m okay and heading home. It was truly wild to witness how the cops strategically created confusion and escalated tensions and then started using pepper spray and tear gas to “solve” the problem.

Just want to let folks know that when @RepBeatty @VoteBoyce and I were down at the protest we did get sprayed with mace or pepper spray. We are all ok, and we want to encourage folks, both police and protestors, to stay calm.

Time to apologized to my mom for throwing a fit when she wouldn’t buy me this game. 🤮
