The earnestness of a child in the body of a 50-something educator. I joined Twitter for Conan, but Bluesky is for me. As a little treat.
I tuned in just in time for the AMAZING Bad Bunny halftime show. What a beautiful homage to Puerto Rico and ALL of the countries of America. THAT’S how it should be done. That’s an All American halftime show.

Put out our Valentine’s Day decorations, and for reasons, this year the Little People Cafe is being visited by the Rose family. Moira and Johnny are seated for the Sweetheart Brunch, while David and Alexis wander around in search of pastries and Wi-Fi. ❤️

Any day with Green Day in is a good day.
Would someone be so nice as to alert me when Halftime happens?

The Swiss Chalet, a family owned hamburger joint in Tillamook, OR. Great burgers and fries, delicious ice cream and shakes, Formica tables, decades of history. A true loss to our locals. Closed in early 2000s.

please tell me about your favorite lost restaurant (closed for at least 5 years, like I really want you to go back into the vault), why you loved it and what you ate there

When I lived in California it was the Sacramento River, now in Oregon it is the Kilchis.

My favorite Twitter prompt was "RT this with your home river," so reskeet this with your home river.

Mine is the Patuxent.

When you don’t if it’s the weather or the news that’s making you more sad, that’s called treasonal depression.

Not to get too political but it would be nice if everything would stop getting worse.

If you make 130% of the federal poverty level, you qualify for SNAP.

A family of four, making $40,560, qualifies for SNAP benefits meaning thousands of Missouri teachers qualify.

I’m tired of the bullshit. Most of the people who receive snap benefits work.

If you're young, you almost certainly have a superpower: vast amounts of energy.

You won't realise it's a superpower until the kryptonite of ageing robs you of it. And then it'll be too late.

So use it while you can.

Found this video while explaining the Portland Frogs to someone. Enjoy!

Maybe it's time to attach strings to the subsidization of red states, like critical reasoning taught in all grades, more civics classes, and higher pay for better-credentialed teachers -- not out of largesse but to protect the rest of us.

this is, hands down, the best video I've seen on men's influencer content and it's not close either

This may explain why there’s an aggressive response to people who merely post Kirk’s own words. It threatens the existence of the alternate Kirk - the motivational speaker that had been marketed to young kids and white Christian groups through selective quotation & clips.

While making our bills, my husband casually said “You know what’s cool about having American flag stamps? You can stick them on upside down to signify our national distress.” And I’m reminded all over again why I love him…❤️

The clouds this morning over Tillamook Bay on the Oregon Coast were pretty dang cool.

The world is what it is, but our cat had a birthday today and the theme was bananas and it was joyful as hell.

I was just reminded that in early 1992 my roommate and I bought a VHS of Carly Simon Live From Martha’s Vineyard and it was gorgeous and ethereal but the tape was damaged so we took it back but they didn’t have another copy so we got “Defending Your Life” instead.

My husband and I were watching a documentary about the horrific tornado that swept through Joplin, MO in 2011. Unexpectedly, Barack Obama was shown giving a speech about hope, survival, and humanity.
My husband and I both started crying. Compassionate leadership. We have lost so much.
