It's that time of year again!

How does it feel to be eliminated from the #StanleyCupPlayoffs? I imagined it in my novel Seeking the Center. Read or listen here https://t.co/VJ5SS0OlW8. Buy the book here https://t.co/Pz7VUlYK1D or from your favorite bookseller.

Make no mistake: Grand Slams may have equal prize money but the other 50+ tournaments do not🚨

Here is a comparison of Coco Gauff’s last two wins:

She took home 34% as much as Dan Evans at the DC Open and 45% as much as Novak Djokovic at the Cincinnati Open.

Also in Seeking the Center I imagine what it’s like to not be able to participate in the first place, because of being female.

It's #EarthDay2023 AND #Shakespeare's probable birthday.

Expect a verbiage of platitudes, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing.

NB: Always fight fake "solutions" EG. 30x30, NetZero, rewilding, protected areas

The reason that local communities object to mines for these elements is that mining destroys their landscapes, livelihoods and endangers their human rights. How complicit in this do we want to be?

Okay, but we also need a deeper discussion of whether/how many cars of any type are desirable. We need to think through and implement conservation and improve/expand public transportation. https://t.co/pWspubITPf
