While the pope rests his voice, May those of us from across the globe who rely on his decency, his morality, his integrity, his wisdom on so many issues, raise up our voices until he can speak again. May we be so loud that he can hear us from his room! May he know that those who count on him from all religions are using their voices on the issues they care about — loudly, compassionately, and clearly.

I use my voice today to bring attention to the need for more federal investment in Alzheimer’s research, as well as the outage I feel about wanting to televise a public execution. We are better than this.

Now it’s your turn to raise YOUR voice about the issues that matter most to YOU, and I’m tagging in @timothyshriver, @stephruhle, @annelamott, @shannonrwatts, @emmahemingwillis, @drlauraberman, and @adam_kinzinger to get us started! Let’s go!

Elon Musk openly shares his thoughts on Tesla's future valuation: "I agree with Ark Invest and Cathie Wood that autonomy, robotic taxis, makes Tesla about a $5 trillion company. The Optimus robot, I think, makes Tesla a $25 trillion company." $TSLA 🚀

Bill Gates visited Elon Musk at the Tesla Giga Texas factory and told him straight up: "It's impossible to have a long-range semi-truck. It doesn't work" Elon replied: "We literally have them. Drive one yourself. Pepsi is using them RIGHT NOW" Gates just kept saying: "No, it doesn't work" Today, Tesla Semis are hauling cargo 425+ miles for one of the biggest companies on Earth Imagine being this confidently wrong, refusing to accept reality, and somehow the media still sells him as a "climate expert"! @Tesla @SpaceX $TSLA $SPCX 🔥🔥🔥

Experienced an aborted landing today. Perhaps only the second time in my life.

Have to admit, those few seconds are terrifying. And strangely, exactly like the movies.

The aircraft is descending, you’re expecting the wheels to touch down and suddenly the engines roar, the nose lifts and you’re climbing back into the sky.

Those 10 seconds give you a tiny glimpse into how you might react in a real emergency.

What surprised me most? Almost nobody realised what had happened until we were safely climbing again.

No panic. No shouting. No drama.

The pilots quietly took us away from the depression and heavy rain, gained altitude, and only then explained that they would circle around and attempt another runway.

Such calm professionalism that what felt frightening to us was probably just another decision they had trained hundreds of times to make.

We eventually landed safely.

My only regret?

We walked off without saying thank you to the pilots.

Sometimes the people who do their jobs exceptionally well are precisely the ones who make us forget how much could have gone wrong.

I completely understand why this doctor felt compelled to write this.

I hate to write this publicly, but something that happened in my own neighbourhood two Sundays ago has stayed with me.

An elderly neighbour fell in the bathroom and apparently passed away. His wife called doctors living in the neighbourhood, at least two of whom went over and found him unresponsive.

But an ambulance wasn’t called.

Instead, his body was brought down from their second-floor duplex with the help of local car cleaners and drivers, including mine.

And this is the part I still cannot get out of my head.

His body lay outside, in the heat, in his night clothes, without even a white chadar covering him.

For us, that white chadar isn’t some luxury. It is perhaps the simplest expression of dignity we give someone after death.

Eventually, neighbours arranged one and moved him to the side, where he lay for a full 3 hours while other procedural delays were being planned to help get a slot in the crematorium.

An ambulance was finally called because the necessary medical certification was still required before the cremation could proceed. It arrived, but was apparently turned away because of the expense involved.

So everyone waited again for a doctor who could provide the required certification.

Nearly three hours passed before a hearse eventually took him away for the cremation slot later that afternoon.

And this is what has bothered me ever since.

A man who had worked all his life and left behind substantial assets ( a couple of million dollars, easy) spent his final hours lying outside his own home on the road in full public view without even a safed chaddar, because a few thousand rupees were being saved.

What exactly did they save?

₹5,000?

There are times to negotiate. There are places to economise. I am Indian enough to understand our obsession with both. And I’ve been through this exact calculation 5 years ago (embarrassed to admit) and these were the worst few hours of my entire life.

But surely a medical emergency and the dignity of someone who has just died cannot be among them.

It has come to my notice (I'm a continent away) that Nicola Sturgeon has again claimed I'm obsessed with her. This is, of course, true. I hereby repost my adoring review of her magnum opus, in which I attempted to convey the full magnificence of La Sturge.
