My newest article published by @katiecouric media. #Tragedy shouldn’t be a test of whose pain matters more. True compassion refuses to measure, dismiss, or perform #grief. https://t.co/BA1SAudJNP @katiecouric.bsky.social #charliekirk

My latest article in @PsychToday https://t.co/4l9AtOs9yU Joy doesn’t need an apology. 💔 Suffering doesn’t need a ranking.
💫 Every emotion deserves space. It’s not either/or—it’s both/and.
There’s room for all of it—and for all of us. 🖤

@BillAckman @realDonaldTrump I know you don’t believe it was well executed. Why can’t you be more honest? So many people were hurt this week in the market - some won’t recover. Why can’t you just say good decision to pause the tariffs?

My recent article in @salon Polling shows most Americans still support core programs like Medicaid, Medicare, and Social Security — even across political lines. 🩺❤️ And yet, these programs are under threat. If we remember how much we share — and how much we care — we can come together to protect what matters most. 🤝🇺🇸

My article today in @Salon https://t.co/nv0qilt8V1 What happens when cash disappears? 💰 The U.S. Treasury is eliminating the penny, citing rising costs. But this small change may signal a bigger shift toward a cashless society—one that could leave women financially vulnerable.

@Salon It is tragic that women at any hospital in Texas needing life saving support is denied. You can’t just pass laws and ignore the consequences.

[Allison Carmen @giftofmaybe]

@JeromeAdamsMD If this is true, this is tragic. There are particular groups in our society that truly benefit from telehealth. This includes the elderly and reproductive healthcare, including postpartum care for women.

My article today in @Salon https://t.co/79mJLaU4OI Reproductive Healthcare Is More Than Abortion – It’s a National Crisis. Forced births aren’t just a personal issue—they are creating a public health and economic disaster. #MaternalHealthCrisis #PostpartumDepression #WomensHealthMatters

🌟 Why Hope Isn’t About a Perfect Future 🌟 https://t.co/nsnDovZzYD
new article for @PsychToday I explore the paradox of hope: how it can both comfort and hinder us. When we let go of rigid expectations, hope becomes a way of facing the unknown with curiosity and openness.

@kate_manne And Kate Manne moves mountains no matter what kind of hope she has!!! So I have no doubt that whatever is possible, you will be right in front pushing it forward!

[Allison Carmen @giftofmaybe]

@kate_manne Everyone gets to hold their own version of hope for outcomes. Perhaps the most important version of hope makes us act instead of embracing a kind of despair that creates non action. However, no one knows the future, so your hope and my hope are just possibilities among many.
