I'm getting that Grinch onesie from Primark for my next travel day.

Mr. Secretary, fix air traffic control- hire a full staff and make sure they have all of the tools they need.
Bro, we just want the planes to take off and land, on the agreed-upon schedule, can you focus on that?

"People dress up like they're going to bed when they fly... We want to push people as we come into a really busy travel season, help people out, be in a good mood, dress up"

For @msmagazine.com, I wrote about the WNBA and the issue of pay equity. By the time the WNBA was only two seasons in (1999-2000) the average NBA salary was 58 times higher than the average WNBA salary. Twenty-six years later, the gap has jumped to 116 times higher.

AOC: "It is unconscionable that what we are debating right now is legislation that will give 8 senators over $1 million a piece & we're robbing people of their food assistance & healthcare to pay for it. How can we vote to enrich ourselves by stealing from the American people?"

Today's Rumi

Out beyond ideas of wrongdoing and rightdoing, there is a field. I’ll meet you there.

When the soul lies down in that grass, the world is too full to talk about.

Ideas, language, even the phrase 'each other' doesn’t make any sense.

What I.C.E. and this Administration are doing to brown-skinned people is a crime.
It’s a sin.
It's inhumane.
It's not pro-life.
It’s not Christian.
It’s not making America great.
It's wrong by any measurement decent people use.
And it’s time we said it.

Why do headlines say "norms shattered" when what is meant is "laws broken" or "Constitution violated"?

Dear Kash,
Not sorry to see that your transphobic wet dream didn't pan out.

Stop gratuitously scapegoating the most vulnerable.

You're the FBI. Do actual police work. And talk less.

You seem over your head.

I can’t adequately articulate how stupid and dangerous this is.

Vaccine-preventable diseases will come roaring back.

Public health and vaccination are not choose your own adventure.

The vaccination rate needs to be 95% for adequate “herd health”.

My Great Dane occasionally slimes his face whilst eating. A nice neighbor lady saw him on a walk just now and she said "Oh look, porn star face."

I can't un-hear that.
