AceShowbiz - Prolific actress Sally Field has made a triumphant return to social media, declaring that Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris has reignited her spirit after she found social platforms had become a "public toilet paper" under Donald Trump's presidency.

In an Instagram post shared prior to the weekend, the two-time Oscar winner explained her absence from social media, "Not since it became public toilet paper for our former crook of a President." Quoting Michelle Obama's words from the Democratic National Convention, she added, "But 'hope is making a comeback.' So here I am. This is me. And this is my dog, Dash. Buckle up."

In a subsequent post, Field shared a photo of herself watching MSNBC's coverage of Kamala Harris' DNC speech. "Hope is here. Right in the room with me and my 18-year-old newly registered to vote grandson," she wrote, urging her followers to get politically active and support the Harris-Walz ticket. "I'm, screaming from the highest mountain top I can find. Vote for our country, our children and grandchildren. Vote for the earth and women and human rights. Vote for democracy. Vote for @kamalaharris and @timwalz. Please dear God. (And I'll be your best friend.)"

On X (formerly Twitter), Field also expressed her concerns about the current state of the world and the need for connection, "I haven't used Twitter (I refuse to call it that other name) much since the new owner [Elon Musk] took over. But this is such a scary time in the world, hard not to feel isolated. Find me on Instagram, if you care to!"

Despite maintaining a presence on X, Field had not actively used the platform for the past two years. Known for her illustrious career in film, she has won two Academy Awards for Best Actress, in 1980 for "Norma Rae" and 1985 for "Places in the Heart". She was nominated once again, for Best Supporting Actress, for her role in "Lincoln" opposite Daniel Day-Lewis. Her other notable credits include "Forrest Gump", "Steel Magnolias", "Smokey and the Bandit", "Mrs. Doubtfire", "The Amazing Spider-Man" movies and last year's "80 for Brady".

Field is renowned for her political activism, particularly in support of women's and LGBTQ+ rights. In 2019, she was among those arrested for participating in Jane Fonda's climate protest in Washington, D.C.
