David Lynch, our beloved dad, was a guiding light of creativity, love, and peace. On Monday, January 20th—what would have been his 79th birthday—we invite you all to join us in a worldwide group meditation at 12:00pm NOON PST for 10 minutes. Let us come together, wherever we are, to honor his legacy by spreading peace and love across the world. Please take this time to meditate, reflect, and send positivity into the universe. Thank you for being part of this celebration of his life. Love, Jennifer, Austin, Riley and Lula Lynch

Shame on Major League Baseball for letting the #Athletics leave #Oakland. The sold out game today and all the protests proved that the problem was never the fans, it was the greed of the owner seeking his own green and gold from Vegas. /5 #RootedInOakland #LetsGoOakland

Happy #IndependenceDay to my fellow Americans! Yes, you can get your fifth-dimension fix with a #TwilightZoneMarathon today. 😀 @Syfy has a one-day one of original TZ, while @handitvnetwork has a four-day one (July 4-July 7) with mostly original TZ and '80s TZs in the overnight hours. Here's a spreadsheet with both schedules: docs.google.com/spreadsheets… Bonus: @PlutoTV has one going too. So there's no shortage of TZ today. Enjoy! 😊

Looking forward to this annual NYE tradition!
Time for my annual disclaimer! Once again, starting December 30, 8am EST, I'll be filling your timelines with posts marking @Syfy's New Year's Twilight Zone marathon. If you can't tune in, are watching @handitvnetwork's TZ-athon, or are making your own marathon via disc or streaming, I hope you'll still enjoy ushering in 2024 Serling-style. 🥳 Here's the schedule: thenightgallery.wordpress.co… As always, I'll try to reply to everyone, but it's like drinking out of a firehose, so forgive me if I miss you. I may only be able to put a like on something, but rest assured, I see what you write, and I appreciate it. So feel free to share your thoughts. 😃 And don't miss: "Five Reasons Why It Still Makes Sense to Watch Syfy’s Twilight Zone Marathon": thenightgallery.wordpress.co… So get your snacks and caffeine-delivery systems ready! You wouldn't want Willie to get lonely, would you? 😱😋

Yes! The CA Assembly today approved my #caleg #SB348, Healthy Meals for Kids, which would make CA the 1st state to codify @POTUS 's new federal guidelines on school nutrition standards aimed at reducing sugars and salt in school meals. Now back to the Senate for a final vote.

#SchoolMealsForAll is critical to addressing #ChildHunger. All students, regardless of family income, deserve to be fed healthy, nutritious food. Thank you @GavinNewsom, @nancyskinnerca for prioritizing California’s kids.
