I didn't realize how much I missed pre-2022 Twitter until I joined this happy place. So nice to be here! I'm a former high school special education teacher turned instructional designer turned digital communications professional turned docs & comms accessibility specialist. Also ❤️ dogs. Like, a lot.

Your regular reminder that we desperately need to overturn Citizens United and get big money out of politics.
It is among the worst Supreme Court decisions in history.
It corrupts our political system every day.

So they didn’t like the ad. Let’s just post Reagan’s 5 min speech against tariffs as it appears on YouTube.
Over and over. On all platforms (some of y’all are still on X).
