@BarackObama When I was in college, I worked as a valet in San Francisco. Then Mayor Feinstein had an event at her home for a visiting dignitary and after all the cars were parked, she personally brought out a filled to the rim appetizer platter just for we valets to nosh on. That's class.

@TizzyEnt @shaunking Trauma, trauma, trauma. The man needed therapy years ago. As a spouse and a parent - recognize when you are in an abusive relationship and do everything in your power to get out. If it is your friend, neighbor, or family member, do your best to intervene.

Ironic the Americans, who "stole" golf from Scots, are now grumpy the Saudi's are doing the same to them.

@bradlander There are better ways to say this that are less triggering for your constituency.

@rgay Yes please!

A composite image from this morning's eclipse showing the moon in various stages throughout the night. The size and shape of Earth's shadow is clearly visible here. These events are absolutely magical to witness and quite surreal.

@sarahkendzior @MollieKatzen Ah, those "unwritten rules." Right.

The US Senate is extremely undemocratic. Fifteen small states with 38 million people combined routinely elect 30 GOP senators; California, with *40 million* residents, is represented by two Democrats. https://t.co/KqBUkTPVfw

Former first lady Michelle Obama criticized President Trump for his handling of the coronavirus, saying 'we simply cannot trust this president to tell us the truth about anything'

@Zsayed6 @elizashapiro @NYTMetro 60% of kids in private schools in NYC are White. This includes Jewish, Catholic and independent schools. chrome-extension://oemmndcbldboiebfnladdacbdfmadadm/https://t.co/9jVaPeOmLS

[Elizabeth Kenney @bklynebeth]

@lesbionicamazon @PSulliv @chien_kwok @elizashapiro Hear, hear. And interestingly, 60% of the non-public school population is White.

[Elizabeth Kenney @bklynebeth]

@PSulliv @chien_kwok @elizashapiro This is false. Whites are 15% of the public school population. They make up 60% of the students in non-public schools (Jewish, Catholic, Independent). Make no mistake, White parents very much impact policy.

Now would be a good time to work on a federal universal preschool policy that doesn’t rely on flexible spending accounts or tax credits tied to employment

All of this is his fault

@SarahCohodes As an in-home trauma therapist, I spent spring supporting my D75 and SPED kids in Harlem and E. Harlem, not so much with their identified traumas (i.e. IPV, homelessness) as much as I did the trauma of online learning. 100% support a plan like this.
