Apparently I’m causing a neighborhood ruckus on NextDoor over my comments in favor of our school bond election. Some grumpy ass old man who doesn’t know what he’s talking about at all just stopped MH on a walk to gripe about me. 🙄 What the fuck? To the grumpy ass old man, not you. Did he think your husband was going to make you stop? I hate people. H came home laughing. I usually avoid NextDoor, but I couldn’t resist this argument.

"It would be shocking if..." Would it really, though? I mean, I know we should be all shocked that he would abuse the law and his position like that, but it wouldn't surprise me. Enrage, yes.

School shooting in STL today. 😔 One student, one staff, and the shooter pronounced dead. Sounds like security and police were very quick and it could've been much worse.

I think it'd be one of those shocking but not surprising things. Shocking because it breaks a norm of the Supreme Court but not surprising because Thomas.

Garland is talking about China. It sounds like they are threatening and harrassing dissidents who live in US by intimidation and manipulating their family members in China.

UVA Children's hospital is also full and sending kids to VCU in Richmond to be admitted. Bad stuff. This makes me mad too because all of the covid maps in the area are still green, and I know this isn't specifically covid, but if cases are going to increase in an another month or so, as they predict- where is that going to put us? Do we only care if adult hospital beds are full? Seems like we are past due for some masking recommendations and/or updated guidance. Yeah i thought the updated CDC guidance was about not overwhelming the health care system....

Our area got these calls too. My kindergartener's school was not one of those, but we did have a police presence at drop off and pickup last week. It must be so scary for the kids and parents. Ugh.

I haven’t followed very closely with he FL gov race, but I’m envious of candidates debating for that spot. Anywho, homes facial expressions are so awkward here. Including the, what I assume is the follow up.

I had an old guy threaten to sue me because I told him his understanding of how local school funding works is incorrect 😂🤦♀️

I am putting out all the juju to the universe that there are enough people out there to show up and make good choices. I need this to be the bubble that pops and not a constant fight against the crazies. I do think we'll have 1 more crazy presidential election tho.

Did any of my 651 people just get a shelter in place emergency alert on their phone? This is what it said: Homicide suspect at large described at 17year old white male

richard, so many issues with the alert. No location info, no issuing agency info, nothing useful, just putting fear into half the metro area and locking down every single school. Wonderful work, police!

So my 4 year old had her first lock down today.
Then I tweet and the first tweet that follows mine is about a man who shot himself while "legally" carrying a gun at the corn pit - the gun just magically went off when he was digging corn out of his shoe.
Then I see this.
I'm so fucking done.
