You guys are the very definition of resilience! Congratulations . I must confess that I doubted that this day would come, but it has arrived. As Grandma used to say, 'justice is often late, but it never tarries.' What the hell does that mean? Take a bow! This is a great day!

"The Right wants strict rules on everything. From what teachers can teach, to who can read to children... But when it comes to just f*cking filling out paperwork to get a gun, TOO FAR! But inconvenience is not the same thing as infringement." LEGEND. 🔥
ON NEW HOUSE SPEAKER MAGA MIKE JOHNSON
With yet another deadly mass shooting in America, it’s worth re-watching Jon Stewart completely dismantle a Republican MAGA extremist on the issue.
Here's a story you won't read in your Saturday PG, even though it's about a big rally that happened Friday AT the PG, organized by and for its workers who've been on strike for a year. Our @Emily_M215 and @KarenICarlin covered it with our @bobbatzjr: unionprogress.com/2023/10/07/sup…
The writers strike is FINALLY over. Thank you all so, so much. Here's what we won.

Just wrapped up my @DJNF multiplatform editing internship @PittsburghPG! Was an intense, yet fulfilling 10 weeks of copyediting, laying out pages and even some reporting. My appreciation for copy editors grew tenfold, I left a better writer and made some friends along the way.
@Tony_NormanPG @TerenehIdia I love seeing the amazing writers whom you have supported coming getting their platforms and their flowers. @TerenehIdia and @The_RuggedAngel are just two of many you have supported. Your generosity of spirit and support disproves the notion of "scarcity" in this work.
@arbybeast 1990s Saturday night in Sq Hill meant a walk to the PLCB on Murray, a stop at Heads Together for a movie, and talking to @Tony_NormanPG in the Barnes & Noble. #TimesHaveChanged
@Tony_NormanPG Your essay in today’s PG literally had me in tears. Beautiful imagery and, as usual, spot on commentary about our world. Thanks Tony!

@Tony_NormanPG You should get one with no questions asked!! Got to "settings and privacy," "your account" and "account information." Once you enter your password, you should see a blue "request verification" link. Click it, go through the process & they'll evaluate your request in a week or so
@Tony_NormanPG Tony, I do remember reading that column and being surprised that I'd never heard of it before. Chin up! Supporters are never as loud as detractors.
Delighted to have a review of @jenspyra's delightful new book in the Post-Gazette, today, with delighted thanks going to the equally delightful @Tony_NormanPG for assigning it to me!
