Hey #HolidayBus lines - your bus driver drove over the sidewalk and into a light pole, blowing out a tire that sent rocks and shrapnel-like debris everywhere, including my neck, face and finger. Menace broke my finger. Driver never stopped to check on us crumpled on the sidewalk. Wish DOT existed
Anybody know how to knead bread one-handed? Asking for a friend cooking for 45 this week, including 5 dozen potato rolls (which will not be enough for any leftovers b/c so very delicious)
@darthbluesky.bsky.social you would love them

This again shows that national Democrats could learn a lot by studying NC the only southern state on here. It's on here despite ruthless Republican gerrymandering because they can't gerrymander state-wide elections like the governor.
15 US states and territories have formed a new Public Health Alliance, which will counter the absence of federal leadership by tracking outbreaks, issuing guidance, buying vaccines and more.
Members of the new alliance include CA, CO, CT, DE, GU, HI, IL, MD, MA, NJ, NY, NC, OR, RI, WA.

Congratulations to Sabrina Shroff on obtaining a “not guilty” for client: Sean “Sandwich Guy” Dunn on misdemeanor charges of assaulting a federal officer with a Subway sandwich.
I had the pleasure to work alongside Ms. Shroff in a high-profile federal case in SDNY. She is a fierce advocate.
