I’m nodding to show I’m an active listener, not necessarily because I agree. Love Houston but worried Texas will kill us all. Compassion is a practice. "She would've given the Borgia girls a run for their money," - a friend.

The tweets/skeets etc. are solid but who is paying for the billboards & full-page newspaper ads in small town papers in light red GOP districts with the incumbent’s name & face & number of ppl kicked off Medicaid PLUS the name of the D challenger?

1) The new detention center in Florida promises to be as inhumane and awful as existing ones.
2) Did they coin “Alligator Alcatraz” to distract him & get him to stop talking about re-opening the actual Alcatraz?
3) This is not normal and this is not right.

I constantly remind my boyfriend to lock the back door when he’s been in the backyard.
He’s gotten really good at it, I realize as I sit here in my nightgown after watering the plants waiting for him to drive back from the office to let me in.

Do you do better when you're winning, or when you're chasing the lead?
I do better when I'm the underdog - as least, I prefer feeling positive about my chances. When I'm worried I'll fail, that worry consumes me. Fear motivates but it doesn't feel great. Wonder what psychologists say...

a group of men are rowing a boat with the number 5 on the front
Alt: A cluster of crews racing 8s (8-person boats with 4 people rowing on the port side and 4 on the starboard) at the Olympics. You can see 5 lanes of boats, with a periodic glimpse of the bow number for the 6th boat. The two rowers seen most easily with black, red, and yellow oars represent Germany. The red, white, and blue blade that comes into view is the United States. I picked this image as I still have anxiety dreams about my days as a cox'n - although I also have amazing dreams about my days as a cox'n when everyone was pulling together. I loved to come from behind and win.

Are you a leader or board member of a 501(c)(3) public charity, like arts orgs or food pantries coping with massive funding cuts & revoked grants?
You CAN lobby the gov't about these cuts & encourage supporters to do the same.
And you should. I'd argue your mission obligates you to do so.

If he manages to strip Harvard of its tax exempt status, he'll go after other universities, but you know who else he'll go after?

- Charity care clinics
- Food pantries
But would people stop donating? Is losing exempt status a problem? (1/19)

Revoking Harvard's tax-exempt status b/c they disagree with the POTUS is a radical departure from how the IRS has approached regulating / removing exemptions from organizations because of beliefs / politics.
