no, I just got a nice new sweater that I could not bring myself to wear with the same Lou & Grey sweats I've been wearing for ten months
wore jeans for one (1) day and it made both my children and my dog deeply anxious because they thought I was going somewhere
I mean, I feel that I am on solid ground, theologically, when I say that we are one soul
Yes, I am calling for unity

like I did not get a dog so that someone else could take care of her all day
reconsidering every single life decision that landed me here: unable to spend every single waking moment 100% focused on my dog

Replying to @LAPublicLibrary: How it started How it's going
Quoted @sarasidnerCNN
This interview by @andersoncooper with @TheAmandaGorman was wonderful and hopeful and revealing. Anderson said he was “transfixed” by her. We all were. Amazing talent.
she is so brilliant!!
I cannot remember the last time I enjoyed watching anything as much as I enjoyed watching 1) Amanda Gorman's inaugural poem, and 2) Anderson Cooper basically announcing himself as her biggest fan just now, like he is running out of superlatives (this too feels right)
on CNN they've been talking to or about Amanda Gorman for about an hour and that feels right

Replying to @mobrowne: Some of us did not die. And what shall we do, we who did not die? — June Jordan
Restoring & expanding the Voting Rights Act has to happen in this first two years while there’s a Dem majority in both houses b/c we can be certain the GOP will be doing everything in its power to prevent us from having a free & fair election in the midterms.
Quoted @Oprah
I have never been prouder to see another young woman rise! Brava Brava, @TheAmandaGorman! Maya Angelou is cheering—and so am I.
Thank you! I would be nowhere without the women whose footsteps I dance in. While reciting my poem, I wore a ring with a caged bird—a gift from @Oprah for the occasion , to symbolize Maya Angelou, a previous inaugural poet. Here’s to the women who have climbed my hills before.

A note on hope:
1. It is a practice
2. If you see someone feeling it, don't try to take it from them unless it is truly unjustified
3. If someone's hope is misdirected, help them redirect it
4. Organizing is hopeful activity

Kandinsky was an economist before changing careers at age 30 to become a world renowned painter; his art remained highly influenced by math we use in Econ: e.g. Kakutani developed his famous Fixed Point theorem in 1941. A year later, Kandinsky painted Fixed Points. Beautiful, no?
For @NYTmag's education issue, I wrote about what kids with IEPs (including mine) are & are not getting in terms of support as schools move online, and why the stakes are so high:
