It is. I wish you and your loved one peace.

Crepuscular. Agelast. Kumquat.

It's become clear that this administration is just a protracted war on anybody who's read a book without pictures in it. It's a miracle we're all still getting up and going to work every morning. The psychological drain is the point, and I'm increasingly grateful to the people who are still decent.

THAT PART. THANK YOU @raskin.house.gov!

Congressman Raskin is right: Health care for trans youth is best practice, age-appropriate, and medically-necessary. Tell Congress to pass the Transgender Health Care Access Act: hrc.im/TRANSHEALTH

Thank you @jayapal.house.gov for your fiery defense of trans youth.

Patients, their families, and their doctors should make medical decisions—not politicians.

Gave it (the book, not tb) to my husband for Father’s Day!

Oh HELL no.

If you love fungus-based premises, run immediately to your nearest bookstore and get Wanderers by @chuckwendig.bsky.social. Absolutely riveting. Not-put-downable.

Elon’s coming for the Peace Corps, an American initiative he will never understand. Unlike Elon, PCVs are welcome in South Africa.

PC Volunteers live on small stipends and a tiny support staff. The budget is $400m, the same amount of money Elon wanted the State Dept to spend on “armored” Teslas.

Email text reading: Dear Colleagues: Yesterday evening an email was sent to all International and Foreign Language Education (IFLE) staff that our "organizational unit is being abolished along with all positions within the unit." The email indicated that IFLE would be able to engage in "transition activities" until March 21, after which all staff would be placed on administrative leave. IFLE staff is unable to enter the workplace or send messages to any external emails, so we will not be able to contact you outside of this message. We would like you to know what a privilege it has been to work with all of you and what a credit you are to the Department of Education and to IFLE. We wish you all the best.

The Dept. of Education has just shut down the International and Foreign Language Education office. I have worked on impactful IFLE grants for 21 years.

As with the evisceration of USAID, this is appallingly short-sighted and will impact foreign relations and higher education for decades to come.

I’m in line for the library copy! Can’t wait!

Happy birthday! 🎂

Good on ya! That’s not always easy to do.

I’m so very sorry. 😢

Go, you! 🤩

It makes perfect sense. Im glad they have a bunny to snuggle with, and a feeling of safety with their mama.

I am in awe!

Wonderful! Good luck in your new position!

My kids’ opening night for their children’s theatre production was fantastic tonight!

I've heard a number of people say, "I live in a safe blue district/state--there's no point in calling my reps since they're already on the right side." Yes, there is: You can call and insist that they be among the loudest voices on the issues you care about, since they can afford to be.

Quote from Elie Wiesel during his 1986 Nobel Peace Prize Lecture: "There may be times when we are powerless to prevent injustice, but there must never be a time when we fail to protest."

I visited Auschwitz as a sixteen-year-old. After 35 years, I still remember certain displays with vivid clarity—piles of shoes pulled from feet small and large, hanks of hair shorn from victims, a haphazard pile of crutches and artificial limbs...

Never forget. #HolocaustRemembranceDay

yelling at fascists is good and it can get results 👍

So how’s it going so far?

On today’s episode of “if Obama”

If Obama fired over a dozen inspectors general in the middle of the night, the media would have (appropriately) excoriated him over the illegality and absolutely tanked his approval ratings

Trump does it, and CNN calls it a “shakeup”

Shameful.

if they want to go back to the 1950s, we’re bringing the cuisine back to the 1950s too. you put me in the kitchen, I will spend 100% of my time in there finding how much horseradish and shrimp I can put in Jello before God personally comes down here to stop me.
