To all of my followers: Please take a minute (that's all!) to read this brief thread: Since we founded @TheNVIndy in 2017, I've heard from many of you how you have come to rely on our coverage of Nevada and the issues affecting our lives in #WeMatter State. Thank you. 1/3

In my latest for @TheNVIndy, I explain why, if the members of Douglas County’s school board want to serve as partisans in partisan political offices, chasing every hot-button issue as it surfaces in whatever media they consume, they should resign and run for a partisan office.

Guys, give Twitter a break. What large-scale social media company could handle 150,000 simultaneous users watching a live stream? Okay fine, other than Twitch? Other than YouTube? Other than Facebook? Other than Instagram? Other than TikTok? Other than...
