@OneLawma @SenSaraGelser @ParisHilton @Rebecca_Impact @itscarolinecole @YEP4Rights I hope she liked my video! ♥️

Me when I think about re-entering the dating pool:

Also, @samreich, you often joke about your dad not getting your chosen career, but if it’s any consolation, you can let him know that you’re more popular among Senate staffers in Oregon than he is. 💁🏻‍♀️

Compelled to hop on here after many many months just to let @samreich know that he tapped into a very niche fandom with this prompt and inspired a resurgence of a very fun OR Pol tradition.

The true ides are the friendships we found along the way. 💞

As a survivor of sexual assault and workplace harassment, I have just *two words* to say to the four men with a political ax to grind who defended the “right to abuse power” in today’s conduct hearing on Diego Hernandez… No. Stop. (Two words that abusers hate hearing.) #orpol

Standing up to abuses of power isn’t bullying. A responsible person in leadership must investigate reports of misconduct & if needed remove the problematic actor from the environment—standard HR practices. Don’t equate one’s poor reactions to accountability as bullying. #orpol

I’ve covered student debt obsessively for the past 6 years for a documentary (coming soon!). One of the most misunderstood parts of this debate is: folks with graduate degrees. Many seem to think this group is all rich (or soon to be). This is weird & incorrect. Quick thread…

To the stars, my dear friend.💕 comicsands.com/nichelle-nicho…

@BradIsLove Careful which one you step through. Just remember that one guard speaks only truth and the other speaks only lies.

Door city over here

I mean, not a lot weird. Just a little.

Not allowed to invite students to share their pronouns? You can do an activity where students write short bios in the third person.

Whether it’s shoplifting, political spinning, or just nailing that selfie, deception is all about angles and coverage.

@BradIsLove Power vacuums are a dangerous thing. I wish you godspeed in the upcoming battle to recover your throne.

the hierarchy of power in this grocery store has changed (I'm going on break for 15 minutes)

Every bearded dude that complains that makeup is “false advertisement” should be forced to shave. We know you’re trying to hide that weak chin, Jimothy. We can tell.

The MAGA folks worry that if the FBI can search Trump’s home, they could be next. But they never worry that if the police can shoot Breonna Taylor in her own home, they could shoot them dead, too. See the disconnect?

Got chatted up at the airport for my Magic the Gathering necklace so I’m definitely in Seattle.

Plus, getting asked “What is your level of impedance?” makes me feel like a Cyborg. 🤖

Petition to switch the “Pain Scale” from a numerical value to a list of activities that are impeded by the level of pain you’re in.
