Stuck on dream vacation with no working phone. Yesterday was to be Musée d’Orsay but instead: 11 hrs of hell on a series on surreal chats with first Cricket (trying to get their “Passport” to work) and then with 4-5 “live agents” on @ATT trying to switch service

Every aspect of this trip is planned thru my phone: Airbnb and booking dot com, museum pre booked tickets, customized Apple Maps, navigation apps. Everything.

@hsyee Ha ha this is the ONLY good outcome.

@jonwurster The zone follows YOU, baby! 😉
Hope you had a good birthday.

As a UNC Chapel Hill student who is currently still sheltering in place with no updates other than the sound of sirens and helicopters, thoughts and prayers aren’t enough. This shouldn’t happen. We shouldn’t have to go to class in fear of our lives. We need legislative change.

Overflow crowd at the Ruby to celebrate the 45th anniversary of the 4/12/78 Grateful Dead show at Duke. Look out for the first books in @DukePress and @NeverEasy921 ’s new series, Studies in the Grateful Dead!

@RColesworthy @SUNYPress @DrVKV23 I’m so glad I saw this! We’re on the metro headed there right now.

@hsyee It’s baffling. A friend posted it and I thought she was joking.

I was invited to speak at Bard and they offered to pay for childcare on top of my honorarium and travel. That has never happened to me before in the twelve years I’ve been a parent/writer making campus visits.

That’s some good feminism, @BardCollege.

@colbertlateshow Using Dianne Feinstein’s memory loss and possibly dementia as a punchline is cruel and out of character for you.

@mdr29 No

@RColesworthy At 6 I always think, "Oh I have hours!" Then I start dinner and suddenly I am on the slow but slippery slide to being in bed playing the Spelling Bee with all the things still undone. Solidarity!

@TempleUnivPress @timelfen Completely adorable!!

Photo of proud mother holding child’s new DUP book is a marketing tactic I can get behind.
