A few weeks ago, I read about Doug McGrath’s new play with ⁦@JohnLithgow⁩. I wanted to go see it. Now he’s gone. Such a kind, generous and wonderful man so instrumental in my best work with ⁦@riteshbatra⁩. So very sad. He will be so missed. https://t.co/iqwkp39oR3

@ChrisMurphyCT Chew one step further: if the woman keeps the child she is forced to carry, will the father be granted visitation? Custody rights?

Senator Lana Theis accused me by name of grooming and sexualizing children in an attempt to marginalize me for standing up against her marginalizing the LGBTQ community...in a fundraising email, for herself.

Hate wins when people like me stand by and let it happen. I won't.

This morning, a woman in my district who teaches at Oxford messaged me saying she and her colleagues who survived the shooting "need to do something more tangible than cry." Because if we continue to do nothing, this will keep happening, again and again and again and again.

Misrepresenting #MuslimsinFilm costs lives. Dehumanising and demonising people legitimises hate, discriminatory laws, violence, and war. Enough is enough.

Always described by everyone as one of the nicest people you'll ever meet. Very sad day.

@tomcolicchio for many years we lived on 19th across from Craft. My son grew up eating your food all the time. Had dinner at Vallata last night. Excellent, ordered too much. My son got up this AM and ate his favorite, your veal/ricotta meatballs, for breakfast. Thank you...again!
