@PatBurkeNY There are a lot of therapists and other practitioners who would like to weigh in on/support this bill and hopefully encourage our reps in the downstate area to cosponsor/support - any guidance on who to speak with? Someone on your leg affairs team maybe?

@Maren_Bannon Hiya! A friend sent me this. This is definitely my wheelhouse. Happy to talk.

Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse reads back Sen. Ted Cruz, Sen. Lindsey Graham, and Sen. Mitch McConnell's words against them: "There is a lot of hard-to-explain hypocrisy and rush taking place."

It's not easy to design a voting system that creates 11 hour lines. Nobody else in the developed world has managed anything like it. Generating delays like this requires only-in-America careful planning and sustained commitment.

The #NobelPrize committee couldn't reach Paul Milgrom to share the news that he won, so his fellow winner and neighbor Robert Wilson knocked on his door in the middle of the night.

To me, all these features that differentiate us, like wealth, position, status, and so on, are secondary. I truly believe we can learn to relate to one another on the basis of our shared humanity. And if individuals can learn to do that, there’ll immediately be a basis for trust.

@mattangriffel I got you. This is one of my weird nerd specialties.

This how we do it in in Cleveland: “A man named Jett Croisant, whose downstairs neighbor has Trump banners displayed in the window, posted a sign in his window reading "Venmo @Jet513 and I will tapdance at midnight." Croisant has raised over $10K and will donate it to the ACLU.”

Does anyone have any good resources on what kind of mental health care systems could be put in place of the social services role the police should not be playing?

@aseitzwald My money is on this real gem Netflix has coming: "Brews Brothers: Estranged brothers Wilhelm and Adam Rodman find themselves running a brewery together, but they couldn't be more different in their beer-making techniques and personalities."

Happy winter solstice! Every day for the next year will be brighter and longer than this one. In the Northern Hemisphere, that is.

"A political party isn't a hobby or here to open the Overton window wider; not for friends or stimulating conversations; not ‘a 30-year project.’ Purpose is to win and exercise power in the here and now. If not a plausible vehicle for gov't, it's nothing." https://t.co/RdYnsOVffY

I've been puzzling through why certain people deemed uber-successful (within the bounds of modern techno-capitalism) seem to share a number of social traits. Not saying this is the answer, but definitely gave some insights.

This came this morning as I listened to David Whyte interviewed by Krista Tippet. Loss and grief come in so many forms, and at the root of all of them is love - if we didn't love the person who has left in the first place, we would have no loss to mourn:

Put together some frameworks for assessing our last year, and planning the next year, decade, and stage of our lives. Would love to hear thoughts or how you use it! https://t.co/hzOrbZkRLI

It's one of those days where things seem to be in flow and falling into place AND the world feels like a sh*tstorm at the moment. Guess that's life in the 2010's. Ready for the next decade now, thanks team.

"Literally visualizing whatever “demon” is haunting you, and then sit down and feed them, the same way you’d feed a guest or a friend at a dinner party this has a healing effect represents accepting the worst part of ourselves and developing compassion for ourselves."

[Dan MacCombie @MacCombie]

"Inspired by this idea, I decided to try something I had never really tried before: I would become friends with my demon, my tireless inner-critic. So I started by giving that critic a name: I called him Carl."
