I have to say that I liked this better when we could see it as cautionary rather than a piercing commentary on the very moment we are living in today, but I am so grateful that there is a place on TV for these words to be spoken and heard.

@barackobama.bsky.social #joebiden #georgebush and #billclinton how about you GO to the protests with your Secret Service details. Your presence and theirs will keep the people of #minneapolis safe. Whaddya think?

@ndp.ca The upcoming Liberal budget is flawed, but I must take a moment to say that if the NDP is part of an effort to force an election over this issue, I promise that I will never vote for the party again. Forcing an election at this time will only hurt the country.

How a District in India Came Together to Plant 15 Million Trees Frequent droughts, extreme heat and urban growth led a local government in southern India to build forests from scratch.

Mental-health lessons in schools sound like a great idea. The trouble is, they don’t work | Lucy Foulkes All-class therapy sessions don’t help, and may even make matters worse. The evidence shows we need different solutions, says Dr Lucy Foulkes, an academic psychologist at Oxford University

We don’t love them, but we keep electing them.

I love what you do @nytimes.com but shame on you for this headline. Carney did NOT run on an anti-Trump agenda but instead on a commitment to protect our country. This headline only serves you (to bring in clicks) and hurts us (because you know he isn't going to read the story, only the headlines).

@nytimes.com Your story about #macron #france and #haiti shows the amazing power of #journalism (& a real study of #history ) that you should be proud of. Kudos to all involved.

Education spending yields many benefits for EVERYONE.

As Trump’s Policies Worry Scientists, France and Others Put Out a Welcome Mat European universities have begun recruiting researchers who lost their jobs in the administration’s cost-cutting efforts, or are anxious over perceived threats to academic freedom.

@pkrugman.bsky.social Your quote in this piece is amazing.

Life Isn’t Perfect. But This Poem Might Be. “Aunt Jennifer’s Tigers,” by Adrienne Rich, is a blazing portrait of an artist and her work. Our critic A.O. Scott admires its craft — and its wildness.

@nytimes.com and A.O. Scott, this poem choice and analysis were fantastic. Thank you. www.nytimes.com/interactive/...
