Is there a resource to help keep people focused on the real issues as opposed to the drama and dazzle (and lies)?

@elenaparent.bsky.social Lay down with dogs, get up with fleas. Care more about doing your job than you do keeping your job. Care about your vulnerable constituents.

Maj Gen Wins was a tremendous asset to VMI. The VMI Board of Visitors is made up of OWG Republicans who have no idea what higher ed means these days. My Class of '80 spouse says no more donations from us.

When FAA employees are telling us it’s not safe to fly, we should probably listen.

This ain't it, Ken. With all due respect. Five pages of narrative will not get this job done. Give us one page of bullet points and Dems in front of every microphone there is with the same active message.

I typically don’t wish harm on anyone, but I’ll make an exception for these folks.

Welcome to Constitution 101, otherwise knows as it’s true even if you don’t like it.

You know you don't have to be Black to use this!

Because it’s better than despair, which is what I’m working hard not to feel.

The argument I’ve been having with my husband since 2016.

I’m feeling Excellence today!!

You are not powerless, and he is not unstoppable. Look at, and learn from, the funding freeze and how quickly he was forced to surrender.

Yes Pete is here but he has the iPad out and he is dragging Stephen Miller over on the other site.

SOOOOOOO glad to have you over here.

I hope we can hang on to him for another year or so, though. Ton of upside.

Go Deacs! Great road win!

Is Wake that much better with Ty at the 1? Is Syracuse that bad? Combo of both?

Amen!

Christian, If You're Celebrating Deportations, You Shouldn't Be Celebrating Christmas Christian,

Christians,

If you’re celebrating mass deportations of distraught, exhausted human beings seeking refuge, you probably shouldn't be sweetly singing about a baby with "no crib for a bed."

Alt Text: What to Write Images are decorative, functional, or informative. Skip alt text for decorative. Describe the action for functional. Convey the message for informative.

Did you know that you should end your alt text with a period?

"End alt text with a period, even if it isn’t a full sentence. The period ensures that the screen reader pauses after reading the alt text."

This was a new tip for me. Glad to learn something new!

I want to see the terms and conditions before I agree to 2025.

I know the 3-pt shooting is a whole issue, but I am loving this defensive intensity and I think it helps cover a multitude of sins.

Seconded
