Kicked off by the one, the only @jaykristopher with "Asking for Help Is a Strength", built upon by the dynamic @IamEliBohemond & Sharahn L. of Your Career Strategy in a workshop on identifying Dependable Strengths. Whew!

@NASWNYC families are overwhelmed, rightfully distrusting of a fraught and oppressive behavioral health system, and trying to figure it all out, just like everyone else. "Resistant" isn't a label that I'd like attached to me. Just a thought.

@JetBlue needs to do better. Over 6 hour delay. No communication. No AC and spotty WiFi in a crowded airport, and all we have to show for it are a few cans of minute maid apple juice. My baby is burning up. My wife is exhausted and my mom is angry. #HappyFathersDay

Wife (scientist): Don't forget to give the baby her K2.
Me (social worker): You want to give her WHAT???
Wife: K2... Vitamin K. What did you think I meant?
Me: K2. Spice. 😅 Synthetic marijuana... Yours makes more sense though.

"My name is Jayson, a familiar yet confusing-for-the-common-idiot variation of the more traditional spelling, Jason. My name has Greek roots and means “healer.” I thought about this a lot as a child. Healer. Do I heal people?"

Reading research at 3AM on sleep deprivation in Black children, while reflecting on my own sleep troubles dating back to childhood, is quite an experience.
