@NCL_Freestyle What is going on with the Viva? Day 2 and the service is nothing like I've experienced before. Staff aren't friendly, they screw up every order, and they seem like they don't want to do their jobs. The ship is cool, but I expect more from your new ship class.

This summer, a team of UCLA students is hosting a photography-based empowerment research project for former foster youth. We're recruiting participants now. Please spread the word!

I know #Florida is pro-business, but a restaurant just told me it was too much trouble for them to mail a gift card to someone who lives in the same city and that person would have to come pick it up instead. What didn't you understand about "gift"? #byegirlbye

@Tasha_MSW Congratulations, Dr. Childs!🎓

@sonsteng_person Oh, lol. Ok, have fun!

[Kate Watson, MSW @katewatson]

@sonsteng_person This is something I've been thinking about too. Something like a social justice book club. Let's talk.

To all the White academics out there, when Black women leaders talk about liberating Black children and families from the racist "child welfare" system, it isn't a good look when you all jump in to express your opposition to this.

I really wish people would stop drastically using the scenarios of rape or incest as the sole premise for an abortion. A woman doesn’t have to be in a traumatic situation for it to be reason enough. In fact there is zero explanation that needs to be given.

Ok, Senator Collins (@SenatorCollins), you say you support a woman's right to choose, but you voted against the Women's Health Protection Act. When are we going to see your miraculous bipartisan bill?
