I got this useful bon mot from a middle school teacher recently.
In response to, “I DONT UNDERSTAND,” he calmly said, “okay what steps have you taken to understand?”
And that’s when I realized that a lot of folks have no steps.

I will always believe that young people are the greatest force we have for changing the world for the better.
Zohran Mamdani’s exciting victory in New York - in an election with the highest turnout in decades - shows that. Young people deserve media for them, by them, and that respects them.

We put diverse faces and bodies on our covers, explored everything from sustainability in fashion to the fight for abortion rights, and sought to empower and elevate people changing the game across industries. We tell stories that no one else does, because we understand the power of being seen.

Hi.
I’ve been editor-in-chief of Teen Vogue for the last 4.5 years — a dream job, one I never thought a Brown girl from small town Louisiana might hold.
I am so incredibly proud of the work we’ve done and what we accomplished. Our journalism has won major awards. (cont’d)

An exciting update! Mass Freedom To Read has been working overtime to get amendments filed that substantially strengthen this bill, and all the amendments have been filed! It's time to contact your MA senators to urge them to support the amendment: www.massfreedomtoread.org/news/cta-sup...

Same, John. Ours is going to 3400.00/mo. And you can't get out of it. You either pay it in premiums or you pay it in premiums plus all of the out of pocket. It's the same.
