Hey @stlcsb can you have Vatterott Properties cut the grass at 2757 Ann? I’ve called them for the last three weeks and they refuse. Grass is 3 feet high. Dangerous next to an alley.

Hey @AmericanAir — been stuck on tarmac here at charlotte for 1.5 hrs. Still need customs and security. Inadequate customer service and very disappointing. Plenty of other choices for travel.

You guys made this entire process miserable. Start (1.5 hr on tarmac) to finish (checking our carry on like you’re Southwest Air, esp. when space was available literally above me).

Pretty clever of the Missouri DMV to have its offices only open on the first and last Saturday of the month, but not inform google. I’ve driven to two of these offices and they are all closed with this secret policy. I guess they don’t want my money.

On this day in 1975, the Edmund Fitzgerald sank beneath the waves of Lake Superior during a massive storm. The sinking took the lives of all 29 men on the ship, and became immortalized in Gordon Lightfoot's song. Let's learn more about this tragedy. 🧵1/20

BREAKING: Andy Kim, famous for staying at the Capitol after the insurrection to clean up, will be going to the Senate. We should celebrate this win.

Many don’t realize that the first people Hitler sent to his concentration camps weren’t everyday Jewish citizens, but his political opponents. So, when Trump rants about retribution, locking up his opponents, and giving them “very long sentences,” I can’t help but take him seriously… because history teaches us that is what fascist dictators do during their “Day One” period to consolidate their power. (After all, if you’re hellbent on staying in power but aren’t likely to win the next election, you can’t have your political opponents running around free.) To keep fascism out of our lives, vote for democracy!

Man, Lady McBride and I were able to get in some early voting. Took my lucky Fisher Space Pen in case I had to write upside down, but just used it the boring regular way. #StL, baby

Navigated the lines with the handy Election Wait Times Dashboard. The mood was out-fecking-standing. Two first time voters and the entire precinct cheered. A damn-fine wholesome voting episode of Cheers if you will.

And on a personal note, it is always a privilege to be able to vote for someone you call "friend."  Exercise that franchise. #StL, baby

Imagine being more afraid that your child is going to receive gender affirming surgery while at school, but not remotely afraid that they could get shot at school. A large portion of this country does not live in reality.
