@50YearsAgoLive That is everyone’s yiayia!

Ground is broken for the new Holy Trinity Greek Orthodox Church in Canton, Ohio.

@cledocumenters Public Comment Explainer is up-to-date with a high-level recap of yesterday's @CleCityCouncil Rules and Operations joint committee meeting: neighborupcle.org/publiccomment/ You can learn more about that meeting from @WritingAnderson's notes: bit.ly/3hw6Qgj

Let’s repair this narrative a little: Hershawna was sweet and funny, close to graduating high school, hoping to move into independent living. She was cared for by many, a team of people, trying to help her find her path in life.

@lenibriscoe Her new name should be Fabulistia.

You have to admire Hilaria Baldwin’s commitment to her decade long grift where she impersonates a Spanish person

@ConnieSchultz raised the alarm about the abuses of the culture of tipping years ago in a series of Pulitzer Prize-winning columns. Here's a pandemic-era argument for why servers should be paid a living wage and not have to rely on the sexism of strangers for their livelihoods.

Greetings faithful friends and followers. I finally got around to updating my Twitter handle after leaving The Plain Dealer. Gotta admit it was hard giving up the @PDPopDiva moniker. Rest assured, The Diva isn’t dead; she’s just enjoying a break from the blinding lights of fame.

More important reporting from my friend and colleague Plain Dealer reporter @RachelDissell cleveland.com/metro/2019/12/…

Time to get those phones ringing at the Ohio statehouse. Trauma%20of%20rape%20doesn%E2%80%99t%20expire%20so%20why%20should%20statute%20of%20limitations?%E2%80%94%20Andrea%20Simakis cleveland.com/metro/2019/12/…

Can’t wait to see what the machines help us humans learn.

Yet another example of the important work by my friend and colleague Rachel Dissell and why sex crimes investigations must be given the highest priority. John 'Countdown’ Doe identified as nursing home resident, charged in 7 decades-old rape cases cleveland.com/metro/2019/10/…

@RachelDissell @KelleyBFrench Amen to that!

A shout out to @KelleyBFrench for helping @PDPopDiva and I with Case Closed. The lede-in will forever be dubbed the “Kelley swirl.” pdprojects.cleveland.com/case-closed-pa…

Sandi Fedor did what no woman should have to do cleveland.com/news/2019/09/c…

I refuse to live in a country where our “leaders” protect guns not kids.

Um, yes. Reporters should never contact sources after hours or, gasp, using personal emails. I’m aghast.

Hi @iamsambee Thought you might like this column I wrote about an Ohio woman who has written to Trump nearly every day of his presidency. She's an eloquent critic from the American heartland -- and her dry sense of humor doesn't hurt. cleveland.com/metro/2019/08/…
