[Eli Dvorkin @wetwax]

Thrilled to see the legislation sparked by our Access Opportunity report now passed by @NYCCouncil! As @melmollyrose and I wrote back in April, this is how NYC builds a more accessible economy that works better for everyone.

@renuka_surujn I was one of the writers! :) it was a team effort

[Melissa Lent @melmollyrose]

A very big project we’ve been working on is finally out in the world. Thanks to everyone I spoke to for this report for contributing an idea for a more equitable NYC.

[Center for an Urban Future @nycfuture]

There is a growing consensus that New York needs to take bold actions to create a more equitable city.

Our new report has 150 ideas from leading New Yorkers and national policy experts on what New York City should do.

Podcasts can entertain, change minds, teach, accompany you on a walk, help you clean dishes, & more.

After seeing thread upon thread of dudes sharing dude podcasts, @angrigoryan__ & I put together a MEGA thread of shows you'll love from women & creators of marginalized genders🧵

@stephfuccio I 💙 the enneagram. 1)I’m an enneagram 1 2) Fighting against trying to make it as perfect as possible (& perfect doesn’t exist) 3) The easiest part is writing my reflections at the end! Which are reminders that I need to hear and maybe other people need to hear too

Starting to figure out there’s a difference between writer’s block vs. time lock. I think I feel “writer’s block” when really I’ve packed my schedule so much that I feel too much pressure in the bit of time I’ve given myself to write. And that means I need to free up my schedule.
