facebook.com/share/p/VKr7Nh4… Please help my Brentwood neighbor and look out for her missing son. He left his car keys, laptop, clothing etc. She says she thinks he has his phone and is going to have police try and track him that way, but we don’t have an update on that yet.

Feeling maudlin today, pining for the great early days of @JanePitt before we knew who “Pitt Girl” was. When we found out, sadly, she lost her day job, but flourished as a writer, humanitarian, author, and mom. She has helped me out a few times, and for that, she’s my she-ro. ❤️

Never in my life have I taken a screenshot so fast. I can't breathe. My soul has left my earthly body. Councilman Sam DeMarco, Board of Elections member, Allegheny GOP chair, loudly stating that he doesn't know the difference between a non profit and a political non profit.
Replying to @1HoodPower @AOC
I think we need to look into how partisan political organizations such as this are receiving millions of taxpayer dollars. What’s the deal? Politicians award them contracts and money for “civic engagement”, and then those same politicians can expect political support in their next race? Something’s not right here. Why is Pittsburgh City Council allowing this? I’ll also be looking into what Allegheny County spends and with whom.

Hey “X” peeps, how are you? I’ve had so many mixed feelings about continuing to use this platform. I’m sure you have them as well. Enjoy this photo of my new kitten, Logan, aka “Wolfie” (after Wolverine). He makes my world a better place. Thank you, Ridgway Animal Shelter. ❤️🐈‍⬛ – at Pittsburgh, PA

I soooooo knew this would be this person!!! Educating, illuminating, entertaining! And a National Emmy with your own show?! Thank you for bringing Truth, Humor, and new Insight into Sports Journalism!
The Pivot was nominated for an Emmy, & I couldn’t be more humbled by it. Being nominated last year as a Sport’s Analyst was amazing, and receiving the Emmy was such a blessing. Now for OUR show to be nominated in the same category with the E60’s, Real Sports’, & other great shows is surreal. It’s a testament to all the people who don’t sleep so our shows can be edited, to the hustle it takes to film each guest, & the belief that this could be something before we truly even knew what the heck we were doing. Thank you to everyone who supported us. We are so grateful. @thepivot X This year’s Sports Emmy’s #ThePivot #Awards #SportsEmmys youtu.be/gQ4BNhf9KdI

I love the bigots who are too chickenshit to do anything but post behind a fake name or fake photo in the replies. True profiles in courage.
When they tell you that Pennsylvania is just Pittsburgh and Philadelphia with Alabama in between -- believe it. PA school board cancels gay "30 Rock" actor's anti-bullying talk, citing his "lifestyle." nbcnews.com/nbc-out/out-pop-…

So many of us use Twitter begrudgingly, but I think it would take same collective resolve to switch to Threads en masse that we’d need to get a third party in office. Here I am, too, caught between ideals not yet corrupt, and the reality of the corruption in which we exist. – at Pittsburgh, PA

Went to search for a photo of the three-legged orange tabby who visits our front porch regularly. This could take a while … #lynxpointsiamese #CatsOfTwitter #catphotography – at Pittsburgh, PA

Gracious, I miss him! The way he always called me “Sarah.” And how we would argue about the Steelers. He taught me so much. But what I admired about him most is he was a true scientist when it came to weather. He had a Masters , I think, in meteorology. Yes, he DID say it would!
Joe said it would! 😁 Perhaps you're enjoying some French toast with all the bread, milk & eggs you bought ahead of the snow. 🍞🥛🥚❄️
