Oh my God! @PatinkinMandy . You are so awesome. And so is your son. And your wife too. You couldn’t have been nicer to the lady who’d had the wreck. It was over by the Circle Line. ❤️😊❤️🔥

Hey @IvankaTrump , “Love you so much” falls a little flat when you fail to tag the correct account. Your sister’s account is actually @TiffanyATrump . You’re welcome. Also, you’re a terrible human being.

Ho-ly Shiiiit. I think I’m about to cry — Tears of relief, of hope, of patriotism, of justice. I’ve been so worn down by 3+ years of gaslighting. Could this be the historic moment many of us have been awaiting? #sondlandtestimony #EverybodyKnew

I’d been in Nashville 2 years when this aired in 1991. I recall seeing it and I remember exactly how I felt as @Oprah & @DollyParton discussed the “bad” rumor— the “gay” rumor. My fears affirmed, I tripled down on my efforts to hide. I signed my record contract in 1993

Every night, after I close the boys' door for bedtime, they call me back in. • Another hug & kiss • A drink of water • A question about outer space • An issue w/ a pillow Last night, when I went back in, Everett said this, "Mama, don't you ever forget how much I love you."

I’ve stopped asking myself why people won’t get a vaccine if getting it would protect others; primarily children. I’ve stopped asking question because I know the answer*. Answer * See Sandy Hook * See the cages on the border * See Flint Michigan

Me too, @soledadobrien . I will never forget watching one of the 2016 debates in which Trump said something about @Rosie . I expected it from him because he’s a disgusting human, but when the audience laughed at his remark, I gasped & my heart broke. I knew then we were in trouble.

The President is disgusting and racist, but it’s the people in the audience who break my heart. Cheering bigotry. Shamelessly. Whew. That’s a tough thing to swallow. Gotta tell you.

Gay Christian here. Also married. Also a parent. Also an American. Also a tax-payer. Are you really telling me that God sees my sexuality differently than yours? You think God didn’t have a deliberate, intentional plan for me when I was made? You think God messed up?

Mayor Buttigieg says he’s a gay Christian. As a Christian I believe the Bible which defines homosexuality as sin, something to be repentant of, not something to be flaunted, praised or politicized. The Bible says marriage is between a man & a woman—not two men, not two women. 2/3

Right before I took the boys to meet the school bus, George grabbed his iPad. It seemed urgent. George: Mama, I’m setting a timer for 29 minutes. Me: Okay. Why? George: When time’s up and it rings, you’ll think of me. (29 minutes later: having my coffee, it rings. I did. ❤️)

Most are citing cherry-picked Bible verses— many taken out of context— and slinging their half-baked ideas that they heard from their parents who heard it from their preacher who heard it from his parent’s preacher back around the time cars were invented.
