Stay in line! If you are at a polling place right now and there aren't ballots or there is another problem, our election experts say to STAY IN LINE.

He’s destroying his company. He’s destroying lives and livelihoods. He’s destroying local news. Today, we’re walking off the job in protest of Gannett CEO Mike Reed, in solidarity with our union comrades across the country. Stand with us: bit.ly/gannett-strike… #GannettGreed

@AbbeyMarshall All the time. I left last year and I still feel guilty about jumping ship.

This is ridiculous. They deleted 30-plus seasons, basically anything before Season 39, overnight. This is maddening.

@AbbeyMarshall I’m so sorry, Abbey. Let me know how we can help!

I just got results from my melanoma removal surgery/lymph node biopsy and unfortunately it’s not good. the cancer has spread, so I will be proceeding with scans & treatment. I normally try to have a positive spin but I’m at a loss. It’s been the worst few months.

It was such an honor to get my first tattoo as part of this flash sale. Thanks, @AbbeyMarshall, for the amazing coverage!

🧵 Starting a thread 🧵 These stories are from reporters on the ground in Akron covering the protests surrounding the fatal police shooting of 25-year-old Jayland Walker. @beaconjournal

I keep coming back to this video. @Akron_Police is this blue light always lit at HQ? If not, why now? Why last night? Protestors were visibly upset seeing it and tensions escalated after coming to HQ, were you hoping to get a reaction?

BREAKING: Akron issues 9 pm curfew. I’ll be downtown covering protests tonight. Follow along. @beaconjournal

Schools scared to death. The truth is, one education under desks, Stooped low from bullets; That plunge when we ask Where our children Shall live & how & if

@HiltonHotels @Home2Suites see above complaint about your Ridley Park, Pa, location.

@HiltonHonors really upset to get our hotel and find out you don’t have a pack and play to accommodate our 13-month-old. And by the time we found out it’s too late to find another safe sleep alternative. This is unacceptable. We don’t co-sleep so not sure what my options are.

I love you, Pączki Day. Thanks to Sweet Mary’s in @downtownakron for these beauties.
