Ugh. I really loved this platform and this community, and don't know quite where I'll find it elsewhere. That said, I can't feel good about using Twitter knowing what's happening at the company so am trying to completely leave. I miss you guys.

Thinking of Senator Fetterman & the courage it takes to seek mental health treatment when you need it.

It ain't easy, and because of stigma & vitriol in politics, he'll get enormous blowback, but he's a role model for the millions of Americans who struggle with depression. ❤️

I'm so excited to be partnered with MGM Studios - producers of The Voice - to bring the next big talent show for ASL interpreters and performers to your screen. If you loved what you saw with Rhianna's ASL performer at the Super Bowl - just you wait!

Fifteen years ago, a gunman at Northern Illinois University killed six and wounded 21.

Five years ago, a gunman at a Parkland high school killed 17 and wounded 17.

Now a mass shooting at Michigan State University.

This can’t continue.

What a powerful piece on depression and friendship by David Brooks. This is worth the time to read and reflect on.

In Opinion

'If I’m ever in a similar situation again, I’ll know that you don’t have to try to coax somebody out of depression,' writes David Brooks. 'It’s enough to show that you are trying to understand what this troubled soul is enduring.' nyti.ms/3I9faOL

In the last 25 years, wages for college graduates have risen 28%. Wages for teachers during the same period, only 2%.

We’re calling on states and districts to increase teacher pay. It’s time our teachers saw the support and pay they deserve.

Livable wage = Respect.

I don’t how I missed this thread, but here I am, sharing it five years later, because it’s one of the most important messages in the universe.

Yes, ask.

Yes, help.

And sometimes, do not wait to be asked. Just help.

(If you don’t know what to do? The dishes. Always.)
