Cyndi Lauper walking on the stage of the Hollywood Bowl before singing ’Time After Time’ with John Legend and asking everyone to turn on their phone lights so that we can see that even in the darkness, we are surrounded by good people is exactly the thing I needed to hear today.

I’m really bullish on @govwesmoore.bsky.social as a star player on @democrats.org national leadership bench. Definitely future POTUS or VPOTUS material.
I love his level headed approach to politics and how we walks the talk for our Veterans. 🇺🇸

Robert Redford made many notable films, but it's his Sundance Resort that has had the most significant impact on my life.
I have so many fond Sundance memories; it's a place that has given me comfort and peace during tough times.
Rest easy, RR.

I really enjoy this conversation between Jamie Lee Curtis and Melinda French Gates discussing how Jamie Lee Curtis overcame shame.

This is a massive blow to educational media, the performing arts, and culture in America.
Recently, @petebuttigieg.bsky.social discussed that after the Trump chapter ends, we can't just piece things back together. I mostly agree, but maybe public media is one thing we should consider restoring.

📱 Screen time doesn’t just cause socioemotional problems—it also becomes a coping mechanism for kids already struggling.
If we’re still focusing on time limits, we’re missing the point. It's time to discuss what kids do on screens, how, and with whom.

Jack's book is an excellent resource for learning more about children and gender identity.
And if you have a trans kid in your life, this has been a rough week for them and their parents.
Do something kind for them (call, text, flowers, ice cream) so they know you're in their corner.
