We got a wild storm here in Montgomery County, MD over the weekend - 5 inches of water and a 10 foot local creek rise in 30 minutes. We were on our way to a friend’s house and turned around bc it was coming down so fast.

Our climate is already changed.

❤️ literally from age 5!
One thing that makes it more pleasant to have a baby who wakes up at 5am is getting to tune into childhood friend and brilliant reporter @alivitali.bsky.social on @msnbc.com. Endlessly proud and grateful to learn from you!

Proud of Michael Roth, president of my Alma mater, Wesleyan University, for being one of the only university presidents to speak up. www.nytimes.com/2025/03/15/o...

This is a moment to trumpet the strengths of higher education and address its weaknesses.

You know you have a newborn when a trip to the dentist feels like a legit break 😬

Always proud to be a @wesleyanuniversity.bsky.social alum. Thank you for your leadership President Roth!
Michael Roth at Wesleyan is the one university president who is not cowering at this moment. Some presidents think to protect their schools they should remain silent or acquiesce to this Administration. Their silence will not protect them. www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/202...
Opinion | This college president isn’t afraid of Donald Trump
Wesleyan University’s president is advocating for values in higher education while others stay silent.

Tonight felt like the right night to start the @fallout.bethesdastudios.com TV series. Dark times call for dark humor.

We are heartbroken to lose the indomitable force that is our former president, Cecile Richards. In her 12 devoted years of service to our org, she brought us to new heights in our health care, education, and advocacy work.

She was the embodiment of “Care, no matter what.”

as LA is burning, a swath of the country is recovering from an ice storm, Alabama is preparing for up to 6” of snow and I’m praying for the TX power grid, a reminder:

we don’t need climate action just for future generations, we need it now.

the climate crisis is here, all around us

Just finished Will & Harper - highly recommend, especially in this moment.

Saw #Wicked over Thanksgiving and loved it. Can confirm for all other #pregnant Wicked-goers that (a) tissues are crucial - the crying starts around 5 minutes in, and (b) the best time in the nearly 3 hours to take a bathroom break is when Jeff Goldblum starts tap dancing.

Big debut for Bozoma Saint John on #RHOBH - pretty sure she’s the first @wesleyanuniversity.bsky.social alum on a Real Housewives franchise! ❤️🖤

I would love to tell you about the times vaccines prevented me from getting sick, but every time it happens, I don’t notice. I just keep feeling well.

Neither do you.

Public health, when it’s working, is invisible.

Very happy to see @capitalweather.bsky.social is on Bluesky - one of the few reasons I check Twitter these days

Watched both The Diplomat and RHOSLC tonight and enjoyed equally. It’s called range, sweetie 😘
