Important #themoreyouknow information about right to record.
You absolutely have the constitutional right to record ICE, Border Patrol, or any law enforcement officer in public, and with everything happening in Charlotte right now, people need to understand that clearly.

NEWS: Libraries WIN in federal court!

A judge in RI issued a permanent injunction stopping the Administration from dismantling the Institute of Museum & Library Services and nullifying all actions taken to do so.

Two weeks into a new program that gives New Mexico children free childcare, officials are opening up about the surge that happened day one & how it’s been moving forward. In just a short time, the state said thousands of children are now enrolled in free childcare, & daycares are lining up to join.

"Word become a sound?"
"what's that called again?" "Semantic satiation."
"Yeah."

I admit I wasn't sure #TedLasso would live up to the hype. It roped me in pretty quick. This is gold genius. I get #semanticsatiation all the time. #learnsomethingnew

It was so good I watched it all over again today.

Got the 7-day free quicksand trial of apple tv so I could watch Come See Me in the Good Light. 15/10 worth it. Riveting and emotional in the best hardest ways.

Andrea Gibson and Megan Falley are sublime in their joy and anguish.

Yarn-bombing is thought to have originated in Texas USA, instigated by clothes-shop owner Magda Sayeg and a group known as Knitta Please, who began the "knit graffiti" movement to brighten up public spaces as a form of street art #Womensart

Two weeks from today I'll be seeing the #legend Patti Smith, who released her album #horses 50 years ago today. Beyond excited to help celebrate the milestone at the Orpheum.

What in thee heck?! Called them back this morning, I heard a second vote has to happen to ratify and that if they heard from enough people, they'd consider changing their vote. @shaheen.senate.gov's voice mail was full. I left a message for @hassan.senate.gov. Please vote no!

#newhampshire
I called mine, @shaheen.senate.gov @hassan.senate.gov

Left a message, maybe they can explain why they'd cave after all this wait.
🚨 We’re hearing that Senate Democrats are on the verge of caving to Trump in another “Schumer Surrender.”

That means your Democratic senators need to hear from you right now.

I've been seeing the flag half down around town all thinking, who died? Then I remembered, no one to be sad about.

I loved when Christian Bale said he'd like to thank satan for inspiration in his golden globe acceptance speech.
