I got called into the general manager’s office for this tweet when I got back from furlough.

I didn’t delete it

What radicalized you? I’ll go first. Thank you, FB Memories for reminding me that in 2009 amid the Great Recession, while I was an associate producer making $28K per year working midnight to 8:30 am, Gannett corporate bosses were receiving multi-million dollar bonuses

I’ve tuned out most WH news the past five weeks; not because I don’t care, but because I can’t let it wreck me again.

I made an exception today. This was a setup and a line in the sand he crossed.

Ukrainian blood runs through my veins, and I stand unwavering with the people of Ukraine. We will not bow to blustering authoritarianism.

I should clarify, I do care about people losing their livelihoods, I just can’t keep hearing about the daily barrage of fresh hell

Is this giving in? Is this how the administration wins? I know chaos and overload are their tactics.

I just don’t have the energy to resist that I did in 2017.

A self preservation February dispatch: I find myself not caring about what this administration does, who gets fired, and what protections are rolled back.

We knew this would happen. I tried to stop it. Now that it’s here, I don’t want to know all the details. I’m trying to survive and stay sane.

all I know is that had President Biden forced out the FAA chief under pressure from his top adviser and his corrupt motives, and then the next week there was a plane crash that killed more than 60 people, Republicans would be howling that it was an impeachable offense.

Jim Acosta announces on air that he's leaving CNN and says, "it is never a good time to bow down to a tyrant ... don't give in to the lies."

January 12, 1992, I was 10 days shy of my 10th birthday and in 4th grade. Today, my son is 10 and in 4th grade. Now he knows heartache; now he’s a real Lions fan.

Kent District Library in West Michigan. No amazing architecture, just a really great system my family uses regularly

Hear me out—what if he commuted *everyone* on death row, because execution is immoral?

Minutes ago, the sun rose in Syria—the first dawn without a ruler named Assad in 54 years.

There remains so much uncertainty. But there's much to hope and pray for.

For freedom for that long-suffering people.

For justice for those brutalized by the Assads.

And for peace at long last.

When you spent billions and destroyed your brand to recreate 1930's Germany and got 1780's France instead.

This feels good to check off my list, a project 18 months in the making. We now have an HD camera with 360 degree pan, tilt and zoom atop UM Health-West Hospital. It took a lot of troubleshooting and patience with our HITS & facilities mgt teams, and now it's live: www.youtube.com/live/5vKMqij...

“We were happy to get a pilot. We were happy to get 1 season. We were so over the moon to get 2, so to have 3 is a miracle. We’ve written every season thinking it would be our last. To us, these are real people; they go on past this season. I see them just living their lives after the credits roll”

‘Somebody Somewhere’ Is Going Out on a Bittersweet Note (Gift Article) Ahead of the final season, the creators discuss Midwestern humor, queer communities of faith and why they made a show “about people who aren’t very equipped to talk about their feelings.”

“We would keep on doing this show as long as we could, if it was up to us,” Thureen said. “But we also know that it's not up to us and that in this landscape, more than three seasons of a show our size would be unlikely.” #SomebodySomewhere

“While Somebody Somewhere is not overtly political, there is something inherently political about a series that depicts gay and straight people lovingly coexisting in a small town in flyover country. Watching every episode makes you feel better about humanity, at least for a little bit. What a gift”

The Best TV Shows of 2024 We’re past Peak TV, but these series prove we’re still reaching new creative heights.

“This gem of a television show sweats all the small stuff, because that’s what real people do in real life. Also, if this show were a person, it would make fun of anyone who said “Don’t sweat the small stuff,” loudly and using a great deal of profanity.” bit.ly/3ZD4EJv
