Reviewing my editorial notes for "Wilton House" and pleased to note that my editor has called out a word that I seem to have totally made up ("endued," anyone?) like I'm sort of Shakespeare.

Labeling a child as "gifted" does more harm than good. I will die on this hill.

Alex Pretti "used to tell people off when they made sexist comments to female physicians. He bought me coffee when I had a really bad day as an intern...I laughed alongside him daily. He made a point to teach medical residents without judgement, but with a smile on his face and a joke."

AOC: "An ICE officer had violently pushed a woman to the ground and he had come over to help get her up and that is what precipitated this incident that very quickly led to an execution in the streets. What we are seeing here is a momentous pivotal moment for the United States."

Alex Pretti was a colleague at the VA. We hired him to recruit for our trial. He became an ICU nurse- I lover working with him. He was a good kind person who lived to help and these fuckers executed him.

Today, I spent my whole day at work as a girl in a short skirt and a long jacket. I may have even changed my name from Kitty to Karen. It's all a blur. I'm exhausted. And there'll only be more tomorrow.
