Everything I care about was target of a day one EO: #civilrights #equity #transrights #environmentaljustice etc. Policy lawyer, ex-journo/NP exec fueled by fierce love&lighthearted shit-talking. Finding solidarity with my inner child. Views mine, all mine!
It is divisive to show that white men who owned and commerced in human beings as if they were spiritless property and treated them to every indignity imaginable did this to a Black man. Pass it on.

My kids love Jeffrey Lewis.

I am doing pretty damn well at this parenting thing.

Challenge: post your last photos taken in DC to show what a hell-hole it is

Wadeaaaaaaaaaaa I weep for you

Holding your brother’s limp body

Knowing your wife lays ill far from your arms

This is anguish upon anguish

Please God protect our brother

I’m not ok. The helplessness is too much for the human soul to take. I feel like my life is stolen from theirs. My comfort, my safety. I pray they are all floating like Refaat’s white kite, blocking the sun with their beauty. May this world be a bad dream from which they all woke to find paradise.

The new Nazis: As a child, Stout attended Klan ceremonies & white nationalist youth camps, reading translations of SS training manuals from Nazi-era Germany. “And while other girls were playing video games, Barr said she was wrapping torches in burlap strips for secret KKK cross-burning ceremonies.”

And these — my uncle got me this t-shirt in Harlem when I was a kid 😂 can you tell I was the only white kid in my family?

Your last saved celebrity photo is your therapist. Who is it?

Klaus has literally died multiple times, lived as the vessel for his dead brother, taken every drug known (and probably some unknown), been a religious cult leader and saved the universe. I won this game — BEST. THERAPIST. EVER.

WGBH gave me 3-2-1 Contact, the Electric Company, Carl Sagan’s Cosmos (the original one!), NOVA, Eureka!, Mr. Rogers’ Neighborhood, Zoom, Reading Rainbow, and of course SESAME STREET, where I learned to read at 2!

I just realized you are like the real life Klaus Hargreeves but even sexier and nicer and less on heroin, which is a plus

Y’all

I am so proud to partner with ACOG

They have shown radical accountability and visionary leadership this past couple of years and this is just the most recent badass move

This is how you walk the talk!!!

All I really actually want in life

Is access to a reading nook

Preferably in a window

But honestly? I do not care

Just a nook

Any nook will do!

The greatest toy of the 1980s were those strawberry shortcake dolls where when you squeezed them they “blew a kiss” that smelled of artificial fruit and I wish I could go back to the perfect contentment of squeezing mine and breathing in the smell. It was meditative. I had baby lemon meringue.

White hair feels weird texture-wise but looks super sexy and honestly I wish I had Trent Crimm’s hair more than anything
