Gun violence is the leading cause of death for children and teens in the United States.

Enough is enough.

During today's House Oversight hearing, I emphasized the need for commonsense gun reform to keep our children and communities safe.

I tried reliving my youth, but this Chef Boyardee ravioli tastes awful.

Always so formal.

Mr. Crow is marching past the house; I almost expected a top hat and cane. 🎩

This is an American crow, and they are fascinating. But beware, I've read that crows can recognize faces and can hold a grudge.

"Crows sometimes make and use tools. Examples include a captive crow using a cup to carry water over to a bowl of dry mash; shaping a piece of wood and then sticking it into a hole in a fence post in search of food; and breaking off pieces of pine cone to drop on tree climbers near a nest." - allaboutbirds.org

No. You can’t talk about menstrual cycles. But. Hey. We promise this bill isn’t trying to punish little girls.

I guess menstruation is woke now. 🙄 Personally, if I lived in FL, which thank fu%^ I don’t, I’d introduce legislation to stop letting all these boards and subcommittees use “Education” in their titles. Because nothing could be further from the truth. Florida is a total sh^% show and this is disgusting.

Meet Laura Judd, an air quality researcher at @NASA_Langley. 👋

She uses data from satellites and research aircraft to study air pollutants like nitrogen dioxide, which is a precursor to ozone near Earth’s surface. #WomenInScience #WomensHistoryMonth

In 2020, Nature endorsed a political candidate for the 1st time in its history: Biden over Trump. A new study finds that "undermined and polarized public confidence in the journal & the scientific community." Here's why that's misleading. https://skepchick.org/2023/03/study-scientists-endorsing-biden-made-trump-supporters-trust-scientists-less/

You’re still stuck at work, while your brain has already left for the weekend, and is probably buying everyone drinks at happy hour.
That jerk.

Don't allow anyone to gaslight you. The American Library Association (where I work, by the way) documented 1,269 demands to censor library books and resources in 2022, the HIGHEST NUMBER of attempted book bans since ALA began compiling data about censorship in libraries more than 20 years ago.

We must not remain silent as a tiny minority of loudmouths attempts to police our #libraries, #schools, and public institutions. https://uniteagainstbookbans.org/.

@bojanland @ScottSoCal It must be because it gets confused with mole.

Gangster waving gun frantically: “Who’s the mole?! Is she the mole?”
Moll: I’m not a mole! I’m a moll!
Gangster: And what about you, Red Face?
Sith Lord: I’m not a mole, I’m a Maul!

When ordering dessert in Texas, remember the à la mode.

Do you think some gangsters have piles of laundered money that they’re too tired to fold and put away?

Was treated to an aurora borealis show last night! First photo is driving home and second is our back yard about an hour later!

"Trans rights requires a nuanced discussion"

No it doesn't, give me rights or fuck off
