So thrilled with how these came out. It was tough to pick favorites. I'm not walking next week, but y'all celebrate with me! Got my master's in communications with a 4.0 from @syracuseu.bsky.social.

I collected university enrollment announcements (including 2-year and private colleges) from around the state and talked with a couple of administrators. Things are looking good. My latest for @al.com.

Don't get me started on the Ravens. #NFL

A lot of history being made. Savor this, MLB fans. I don't watch much baseball but this is very exciting.

I just finished #Peacemaker season 2 and I stand with my s1 verdict:

One of the funniest, sympathetic, vilest and batshit crazy shows out there!

Willi Morris @williesha.bsky.social · 3d

Disappointed there's no season 3 to tie up that massive loose end.

Definitely emotional and cried a few times. I love these characters and want to see them again soon. #Peacemaker

James Gunn @jamesgunn.bsky.social · 3d

Very serious officials in positions of power in the DCU. 😭 What’d you all think of the #Peacemaker finale on HBO Max?
