Having a real “you reap what you sow” moment. During peak pandemic years I got my then-toddler involved in regrowing scallions, garlic, and other alliums. She’s now 8, and won’t let me throw away ANYTHING that we can potentially regrow.

Really interesting to see this (seemingly) coordinated PR push by Meta/Facebook folks against a new memoir written by a former Facebooker. Most of the focus is on pushing back against her claims re Joel Kaplan, a senior executive with close ties to Brett Kavanaugh.

Today, Sheryl Sandberg posted about the death of Cecile Richards, former head of Planned parenthood.
Mark Zuckerberg posted he was “optimistic and celebrating” alongside a photo of him and his wife attending Trump’s inauguration celebration in DC.

Sheryl Sandberg became a household name because of Lean In, her manifesto about women in the workplace.
How can she not respond to Mark Zuckerberg not just doing away with DEI, but blaming her for it in a conversation with Trump?
