EpiPens are toxic in space and NASA didn't know!

In fact, a group of elementary school students figured it out. Here's the story 🧵

Ayo Edebiri just gave the best answer any celebrity has ever given to a reporter

Every awards show, I'm blown away by the secretly-British. Like someone always wins for playing Al Capone and goes, "oy, I wanna thank me nan, who's in hospital, innit." Absolute mayhem.

2. Equity
Treating people equally does not mean treating them the same.
I made the mistake for a lot of years thinking it did.

Equity is a core principle of business.
Put your employees in a position to succeed. Recognize their differences and play to their strengths where ever possible. It is not a hard concept. But it is not easy to implement. Most workforces don't have the depth of management to do this well. When it's not done well it can create tension and resentment.

[Mark Cuban @mcuban]

Let me help you out and give you my thoughts on DEI
1. Diversity
Good businesses look where others don't, to find the employees that will put your business in the best possible position to succeed.
You may not agree, but I take it as a given that there are people of various races, ethnicities, orientation, etc that are regularly excluded from hiring consideration. By extending our hiring search to include them, we can find people that are more qualified. The loss of DEI-Phobic companies is my gain.

1a. We live in a country with very diverse demographics. In this era where trust of businesses can be hard to come by, people tend to connect more easily to people who are like them. Having a workforce that is diverse and representative of your stakeholders is good for business.

I think @jonfavs and others don't understand. THIS is how Long Covid happens in the vast majority of cases (including mine):

1. Someone has a relatively mild infection, is not hospitalized, feels "normal" in a couple of weeks, at most.

I've talked to probably 200 people with long COVID. Everyone knows symptoms vary significantly from person to person. But what I find more interesting is the larger experience of what causes it and what makes it better. Some examples I've been told:

I would love to read a 10,000 word behind the scenes tick tock about how the military decided that it was worth it to ask the public if they'd seen their missing jet https://t.co/2lE21TYog2

Quinta Brunson, as well as other cast members and producers of ‘ABBOTT ELEMENTARY,’ have launched a strike fund to help support the show’s 152-person crew while production remains paused due to the strikes.

A new social media trend prompting women to ask the men in their lives how often they think about ancient Rome reveals that it crosses the minds of many men on a weekly basis. Even daily. Or more — to the surprise and confusion of their loved ones. https://t.co/VMV1pY7yBm

My latest for the @washingtonpost is all about TEETH!

I went to Beverly Hills to report on cosmetic dentistry, the state of the celebrity smile, and an eerie cultural phenomenon I am calling "hotness creep."
