Someone reminded me that today was the 52nd anniversary of my debut on @sesamestreet. I was clearly blessed to fall into such a group of talented people way back then. Those were the days… #becomingmaria

This man can’t be real. Over 127,000 women, infants, and children in Virginia are facing food insecurity HOURS from now and he’s out here on this bullshit. You have to be so deeply devoid of humanity to arrive here, Ben. – at Virginia, USA
Recently uncovered texts show that then-VP Joe Biden personally requested a meeting with his son’s Chinese business partner after the company paid Hunter millions. But we’re SUPPOSED to believe the President didn’t know anything about his son’s overseas business dealings.

A man (perhaps in his 80s) came up to me after the show last night and said "That was good, wasn't it?" I found out later that this may have been the first time in his life seeing a play. I could not ask for more as a playwright! Wonder of Our Stage @SilkMothStage

Universities should be places where niche programs have a home & this is a very special gem at WVU. But it’s recommended for discontinuation. For more info on the prog, go to the WVU Puppetry program pg or this great article in Chronicle of Higher Ed: chronicle.com/article/fuzz-c… 4/4

Shakespeare's Richard 2 and Richard 3 are vastly superior to his first Richard.
Many movie sequels live up to—or even exceed—their predecessors. trib.al/aKAGR1N

You can't understand 1776 if you don't understand 1619. July 4, 1776 when the colonists declared independence, 1/5 of the population of the 13 colonies was enslaved. They would not gain freedom for a century. This, too, is the 4th of July. This, too, is the story of America.

It's more expensive to hire and train a new employee than it is to retain an existing employee by adjusting their pay. Give them that raise.

The Trump indictment is shameful & disgraceful. In over two centuries of our nation's history, no new president has ever launched the entire machinery of justice on a vendetta to persecute, attack, investigate, indict, & jail the former president. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcas…

John Fetterman just asked the Silicon Valley Bank CEO if there should be work requirements for CEOs who crash banks and dear reader, I almost fell out of my chair.

I am aware of this fake photo circulating on the internet of Virginia BBQ. Nothing like this has ever been served in our Commonwealth. After some investigation we learned this picture was actually taken in Texas so I refer all questions to them.

When you spread conspiracies about who wrote Shakespeare's plays, what you're telling me is that you only believe rich, well-educated people can write great literature.
