When @JoeBiden @WhiteHouse taps former Senator Doug Jones as "sherpa" to guide Supreme Court pick, A REAL LIFE SHERPA wonders what that even means and LIVES WITH THE CONSEQUENCES of such misappropriation. https://t.co/i13nFOIiQW via @CBSPolitics

@maliniranga Thank you @maliniranga for the tweet. What a remarkable workshop! Congratulations to all the organizers. Point of clarification for those not in attendance: my argument was that "forest-dwelling" is a misrepresentation.

@whathasgood thankful for small local organizations. Bigger ones need to do what they say they are doing.
