So much this!

"During a pandemic, issues of criminal justice reform are not partisan matters. To help curb the virus, we must immediately stop arresting and jailing people for nonviolent offenses." #NoPrisonPandemic nytimes.com/2020/07/02/opi…

Don’t laugh at sexism Redefine masculinity Stop victim-blaming Talk about consent Listen to survivors Know the causes Be intersectional Invest in women End impunity Speak up Educate There is something you can do every day to end rape culture, even during the #COVID19 pandemic.

There are no possessions or credentials in life that can substitute for a sense of self-worth. Self-respect comes from being proud of how we live, not what we acquire. It grows through pursuing purpose, not seeking status. It's about mattering to others, not outshining them.

To assert conspiracy is to believe what you want when you are missing data to fully support what you want to believe.

Anyone else has “Phantom Meeting Syndrome” where whenever you are not in a meeting, you feel like you are playing hooky from one, and so you have this pervasive hyper-vigilance combined with guilt for no reason?

hey @postmates can i send the moderator a bottle of gin

Media outlets show their callousness and insensitivity every time they refer to domestic terrorists as militia groups. White supremacists are the greatest domestic terrorist threat of our time; they’re terrorizing folks all over and still outlets are calling them militia groups.

Professionalism doesn't mean suppressing our emotions. It's about expressing them in a way that maintains standards of respect and skill. Professionals aren't immune to anger, fear, or sadness. They just refuse to let these emotions compromise their civility and competence.

At the end of last year, my incredibly talented colleague Alexandra Nemeth wrote about her personal journey with wellbeing and mental health. For anyone starting work today after the Christmas break, her writing contains some great reminders for us all to take care of ourselves first 💙

This is what domestic terrorism looks like. This is Donald Trump’s America. Imagine the police response if these were Black people BREAKING INTO the Capitol. If you don’t see white supremacy and a total threat to democracy when you see this, it’s because you don’t want to.

I don’t think diversity training can fix this.

There is something achingly on-point about Trump supporters physically, but ineffectually, taking over the Capitol just as Jon Ossoff is declared the winner in Georgia and Republicans officially lose control of both chambers.

We're not asking for you to shoot them like you shoot us. We're asking you to NOT shoot us like you don't shoot them.

While today’s terrible display of terror and meanness shakes us, let’s remember: Jon Ossoff, Jewish son of an immigrant & Reverend Raphael Warnock, first Black Senator from Georgia, will join a Catholic POTUS & the first woman, Black + Indian VP in our nation’s capital. God bless America.

The amnesia is strong today. But you know who doesn’t forget? Black people. I’m confused about why you’re confused — and also not.

Whenever I get discouraged and want to quit something, I remember the words of my then 3 year-old after she puked carrots all over the living room floor: "I'm gonna need more carrots."

I think not. But that's the point. We're supposed to revere and love the founding fathers no matter what just as Trump wants us to revere and love him no matter what. Trump supporters call their fealty, freedom. We call their fealty, tyranny. 10/11
