@TracyNovick But why? Why not just allow full remote participation in meetings?

And if you really want to ensure there was some in-person access for people that don’t have internet access, why not add a requirement that the meeting be broadcasted in an in-person location?

@rgay @KateClancy Yes. Yes. Yes. Our elected officials of every variety are primarily focused on getting re-elected instead of doing the good, important work.

in a culture awash in cruelty and outrage, it takes real courage to cultivate gentleness, to love others, to pursue justice, to memorize poems, to read thick books, to bless and not curse, to build up instead of tearing down.

Is recess a right or a privilege?
Despite evidence they shouldn’t, teachers still take away recess. Experts say it’s time to stop.

1. So much hostility and confusion from people who saw me (on a Zoom) wearing a mask in my office this week! The question is: Am I crazy, am I virtue signaling, am I fear mongering, or is there some rationale to wear a mask in a private office? Let’s discuss! 🧵

15. The first is that you can’t know by looking at someone if they are immunocompromised, live with someone who is, or has something else that makes them higher risk if they get infected. Does that describe me? As my 8 year old says, “None ya”. As in “None of your business”.

@jonlevyBU A thousand times this. WHY so enraged?

New Georgia law requires school districts to have recess for students from kindergarten to fifth grade and will go into effect next school year.
Under the law, schools will not be able to withhold recess from students for disciplinary or academic reasons.
Just wish it was K-12!

KBJ to her daughters: “I bet you never thought you’d get to skip school by spending the day at the White House. It’s all pretty exciting for me as well. But nothing has brought me greater joy than being your mother. I love you very much.”
