So many nuggets of wisdom in this piece from my friend and former colleague @eunicelnichols, who’s always teaching me how to age with purpose ❤️

[Eunice Lin Nichols @eunicelnichols]

Seek more friends of all ages. It can widen your world, offer a longer view of life, and deepen your sense of purpose. https://t.co/uYOiVwCxU7 via @voxdotcom @Charley_Locke @Co_Generate @DrexelUniv @WritersRoomDU @BridgeMeadows #intergenerational #cogenerational

The NRA buys off Congress. No action on guns.

The oil industry buys off Congress. No action on climate.

Insurance companies buy off Congress. No action on health care.

The list goes on...

Money in politics is the root of our dysfunction.

[Ahmed Ali @DrAhmednurAli]

What I'll always remember is how PM Jacinda Ardern's leadership lead to New Zealand banning assault rifles and military-style semi-automatic weapons in just SIX days after the Christchurch mosque attacks. No greater example of what going beyond thoughts and prayers looks like.

Thank you, Georgia. We did it again.

So moved by @emilyschmall's thoughtful piece on the tensions that young Indians often have to navigate between modern aspirations and the heavy, unchanging expectations of family. (Also, Sanjay Van is a really special place!) https://t.co/itngH5N3Rw

“People call drag shows a danger to distract from where the threat truly lives: in our homes, in our legislatures…

Trans people are demonized precisely because it prevents society from examining its own wounds.” -

Taxing billionaires and raising wages are not radical ideas. What's radical is watching over 60% of Americans live paycheck to paycheck while one man has the means to acquire and tank an entire social media platform in less than a month.

Twitter has helped bring down governments. Helped put hundreds of thousands of people in the streets around the world, risking their very lives.

Are we telling ourselves that there’s nothing we can collectively do to oppose one billionaire?

Have we forgotten our power?

[Ilhan Omar @IlhanMN]

Twitter has been a lifeline for activists and advocates around the world. It’s where people connect, lift up and collectively fight against powerful entities. At this moment, I can’t help but think about what post Twitter world would be like. Hoping for the best.

[Qasim Rashid, Esq. @QasimRashid]

The definition of irony is that there've been over 1 Trillion tweets in Twitter history—and it just so happens that Twitter's founder is also the author of the worst aged tweet in that history. #RIPTwitter

[Aanchal Dhar @AanchieD]

Beautiful piece by @ClintSmithIII on how we remember (or don’t remember) histories of racial oppression and state violence.

“It is the very act of attempting to remember that becomes the most powerful memorial of all.”

Anyone who reports tonight any other way is doing a disservice to the journalism profession and America.

When I saw the proposals, I just knew there was a fellow foster kid in the WH. It was a pleasure to meet Sherry, a former foster youth who cycled through foster homes as a child when she had an aunt who wanted her. Representation matters in many, many ways.

Today is the 287th day of 2022.

The Raleigh, NC shooting is the 532nd mass shooting of 2022.

Gun violence is a public health crisis.

[Aanchal Dhar @AanchieD]

I'm constantly inspired by @foster_america founder Sherry Lachman! This investment would be huge in keeping kids safely with their families and doing the repair work that the child welfare system desperately needs. https://t.co/fGFZPHJSf8 via @EricaLG cc: @GensUnited
