I know people say “don’t cry over spilled milk”, but the cat knocked half a glass of milk all over the bed right when I was contemplating a nap, and this feels tear-worthy!

These errors don’t undermine the power of our words.
Pointing out others’ mistakes, no matter how kindly, is unhelpful and unnecessary.

My son reminded me:
"Just because you don't know your impact, doesn't mean your not having one."
It took 20 years for Pauli Murray to learn that it was their legal strategy that led to the end of segregation. Let that sink in.
Your effort matters more than you'll ever know.

As a former theatre kid, I’m very familiar with the “don’t say good luck” superstition, but saying “break a leg” to a dancer feels wrong?

Why do platypuses sometimes get referred to as duck-billed?
Is there a beaked platypus that I’m not aware of, or one with some kind of humanoid jaw?

Let's do better on World Obesity Day.
Instead of changing bodies, let's change the world & create programs that don't focus on shrinking people but support our health regardless of our sizes. Let's create systems, structures, medicines, etc. that don't discriminate, disadvantage & harm fat people.
