I have long thought that I love basketball, but maybe I actually HATE basketball? #GoZags

@Leah_Sottile I'm reading now, and appreciate your reporting and way of writing so much.

These are my teammates. We are Olympic champions. Three of us tried to give birth. Two of us experienced near-death complications. One of us died. We have to, and we will do more. Tori’s death cannot and will not be in vain.

It’s absolutely heartbreaking. We continue to face a black maternal mortality crisis in this country. My heart aches. We have to do more.

I came home without stopping at Sonic for lunch, and now that I'm home without Sonic I regret that decision more than anything I've ever done.

@dan_sinykin I was ready to read like another 5k words of literary analysis here. So if somewhere in a drafts folder you have long literary analyses of more of her stuff (and career and self), know that at least one person would be very interested to read it.

[PUMP for Nursing Mothers Act @pump_act]

Nearly 1 in 4 women of childbearing age are not covered by the federal Break Time for Nursing Mothers law. The #PUMPAct would close the gap!

Sorry some democrats aren't your dream candidates, but if this matters to you, you need to vote for the people who have committed to gun reform, and you need to get other people to do that too. Change is only possible if people show up and try.

[Eleanor @egdub]

If you see things like this happening and your response is that there's nothing we can do, that both parties are the same, that nothing can possibly happen to make it better, I don't know what to fucking tell you but you're part of why it's not getting better.

Great point from @rosadelauro: How can we even start to support educators when we cannot keep them and their students safe on the job? #Uvalde

It takes a monster to kill children. But to watch monsters kill children again and again and do nothing isn’t just insanity—it’s inhumanity.
