Today is World IVF Day, and I want to share with you our daughter’s first ever photoπŸ’œ

This was our one and only embryo, and we are going to meet her in September. This process is heartbreaking and impossibly beautiful and hopeful.

I want everyone to have the access and choices that we did.

The other day I was teaching about music as torture and showed images from Abu Ghraib. My students-too young or not born at the time-were shocked that this happened.

A reminder that one day we will all have to answer for the atrocities of our fellow Americans who were β€œjust following orders.”

For all of us who teach digital culture/media and tech and have to stand in front of a classroom of undergrads and refer to an important political player as β€œBig Balls,” we pray.

Has anyone written a think piece yet about how the war secrets text chain was really just a cry for help in the male loneliness epidemic

I have a theory that β€œThe Giver” was automatically downloaded directly into the head of every queer lady, much like the U2 album and our iPhones, because why can I not stop singing it for the love of god

You complained last Monday that the time change was kicking your ass, I’m here complaining a whole week later that the time change is STILL kicking my ass. We are not the same (unless we are in which case can we cry together about this?)
