The grand jury refused to indict anyone in Nolan Wells’s death. They said no evidence of a crime. His “friends” left him behind. They failed in their duty of care. Shame on Mississippi.

This is my 8th cousin, 4X removed. Her name was Frances (Work) Burke Roche Batonyi. An intelligent and beautiful lady, she was fluent in French & extremely knowledgeable re: art & furniture. She was also the great-grandmother of actor Oliver Platt & Princess Diana.

Still scraping some funds together - please believe me when I say I will pay it forward because I will. My Venmo is @ girlinthetardis and I do have Zelle. Photo of cute cat (my sibling’s miniature lion) for tax

I’m so happy for Peggy Flanagan! If she wins in November, she’ll be the first Indigenous American woman (White Earth Band of Ojibwe) to serve in the US Senate. Go, Peggy!

I grew up on this island, lived there from about age 6-28. Left after my mom died because I needed a full time job and jobs were scarce in my field #Neenah #Menasha

Tornado debris everywhere with a couple houses still standing

My hometown area is a dystopian nightmare at the moment. Most photos by Adam Shea, uprooted tree by Alex T. #Wisconsin #Menasha #Tornado

This is the photo that really broke me. #Tornado #Menasha #Wisconsin 📷: St Mary & St John Parishes, FB

A battered house with much of the roof torn off with debris littered about standing defiantly against a clear blue sky. There’s a big handmade cardboard sign on the battered porch saying “We ❤️ Menasha - we will rebuild.”

This is where I grew up. The tornado was a EF3. Last time we had one was when I was a toddler, in 1984. Pictures are from The Weather Channel. I’m so, so sad. #Wisconsin #Menasha
