Harvard Kennedy School grad student. Lover of animals & nature. Advocate of sisterhood & massive societal transformation toward love, health & harmony.
Julia Allison — that Julia Allison — and Noah Feldman, the prominent public intellectual and Felix Frankfurter professor of law at Harvard, well, they're in love, and living in a house called "The Bohemian Embassy." It's a wild vibe! https://t.co/wJiUD7GiG0
In an exclusive first excerpt from ‘Extremely Online,’ @TaylorLorenz breaks down how Julia Allison invented being an influencer a decade before it was popular — and was vilified for it.

The first excerpt from my new book EXTREMELY ONLINE is out now!! Julia Allison was one of the first multi platform influencers, but never got credit for what she pioneered. She was subject to non stop misogynistic hate. Her story represents so much https://t.co/d8ZKR5jWBv
@mcoatney@moorehn Hey @Inc - are editors who work for you commenting on women’s bodies consistent with your internal policies? Because it’s 2023, and I thought we weren’t doing that anymore. Not that we ever should have.
“How loved you felt as a child is a great predictor of how you manage all kinds of difficult situations later in life,” Bessel van der Kolk in the @nytimes https://t.co/k5ECYHMDk1
"History teaches us, again and again, that change does not mean progress, that metamorphosis does not mean improvement. When society dissolves, we ... dissolve right along with it." - the brilliant & unfailingly evocative @shamblanderson in the @nytimes - https://t.co/jGleHW7twI
"How do we even begin to process all of this - this cataclysm that is happening simultaneously in slow motion & all at once, on distant continents & inside our own cells? The metamorphoses are ... acts of internal self-destruction & rebuilding, subtle shifts & whole revolutions."
History will not be kind to those who block the right of any beings to freedom, love, health & harmony. Today we celebrate one victory in the midst of so much oppression.
May we call in a future where such freedoms & respect - for ALL - are unquestioned & inviolable. ♥️🧡💛💚💙💜
Some bright rainbow news in the midst of a lot of s—t. “Until Monday’s decision, it was legal in more than half the states to fire workers for being gay, bisexual or transgender.” Title VII’s no sex discrimin upheld by Gorsuch’s textualist ruling. ♥️🌈♥️

In another one of my lifetimes, I was known as a "college sex columnist," despite not actually writing about sex, per se, but instead the mystifying vagaries of collegiate dating. Fascinating to watch the U Penn panel WIRED reporter @pardesoteric led, half a decade later.
In 2014, @pardesoteric gathered sex columnists @lenachen, @mckinneykelsey, & @JuliaAllison, and college journalism scholar Daniel Reimold, to talk about the role of sex in journalism, and the experience of student sex columnists on campuses.

"It costs so much to remain divided. This zero sum thinking - that what's good for one group has to come at the expense of another - it's what's gotten us into this mess. Our fates are linked. An injury to one is an injury to all."- @hmcghee Heather McGhee https://t.co/0FDwvfPtyZ
