Yes, these conversations can be uncomfortable.
But the more we have them, the closer we become to breaking the taboo of talking about unlocked guns.

Great piece by @cvdwrites with insights from @VictorFornariMD, vice chair and child & adolescent psychiatry director at Northwell.

My ideal summer body is one that I have complete control over

[Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC]

There is no such thing as being “pro-life” while supporting laws that let children be shot in their schools, elders in grocery stores, worshippers in their houses of faith, survivors by abusers, or anyone in a crowded place.

It is an idolatry of violence. And it must end.

@anthonygbrooks Great hearing your voice on NPR's Here & Now today. Hope you are well!

This is Imogene. She accidentally set up her phone's facial recognition during a sneeze. Has to do this every time she wants to unlock it. 13/10

Are you sick and feeling depressed? Or are you #depressed and then you got #sick? Neither are coincidence. @NorthwellHealth dives into the relationship between #chronicillness and #depression with #therapist Silvi Saxena, LSW - written by @cvdwrites https://t.co/UivyEPuOYG

@chrisvandusen My question: can you give me some of that Bridgerton money, since we have the same (unusual) name?

[Christine Van Dusen @cvdwrites]

@underthewlre224 @redheadeyeroll @stmorecowbell @Kellie_Martin You'd be surprised.

[Christine Van Dusen @cvdwrites]

@redheadeyeroll @stmorecowbell @Kellie_Martin Soda water with lime! Looks like a "real" drink and keeps those questions at bay. You can save the deeper explanations for the people you want to share with.

[Christine Van Dusen @cvdwrites]

@Kellie_Martin Two strategies that have made social situations not-awkward since I stopped drinking: 1) I make clear that I like people who drink and don't judge them (that's what they're worried about); 2) I drink soda water/lime, which looks like a "drink" and keeps many questions at bay.

That’s how effective wearing a mask is

[Christine Van Dusen @cvdwrites]

I've never read a book quite like this. I hadn't expected to cry while reading a story that starts inside "the portal" and then bravely leaves it for real life. But I did. Thank you for this powerful and beautiful novel, @TriciaLockwood
