Only saw Shane and @poguesofficial once. And it was glorious. But they were the soundtrack of my college years and shaped my musical taste for life. #RIPShane and thank you!

I’m as far removed from it (literally and metaphorically) as I’ve been in decades. But waking to see that my kids’ generation just might save us. And that makes me smile.

7 yrs + 1 day. Odd holiday, but so happy to be here to celebrate it. Too many things to say. For now: For the many acts of decency that have made it possible for me to be here to enjoy this outrageously good cup of coffee on this glorious autumnal day, thank you!

I need to find the photo, but my dad (6’4”) jumped center against Wilt in HS. Based on the news clip we have… it didn’t go well.

Zen and the art of night swimming. Thanks ⁦@OVLweather⁩ In a year when nothing was normal, the pool was the great escape. One last night swim to go.

The thing about virtue signaling (such as wearing a mask to encourage others to wear a mask) is that it is an indicator to society more broadly (sending a signal) that a particular behavior (i.e. wearing a mask) is a good idea (virtuous) and should be a societal norm.

25 years ago tonight? The rain was not ironic. The poet ⁦@mikebarsanti⁩ called it biblical and the portends were for a magical and eventful first 25.

This ⁦2009 @NewYorker⁩ story; the meaning of the day: at the luncheon following the swearing-in ceremony, Lewis approached Obama with a commemorative photograph and asked him to sign it. The President wrote, “Because of you, John. Barack Obama.” newyorker.com/magazine/2009/…

3 years ago this week. All a bit hazy. But remember waking up in the morning gloaming in Mass General to @aleximurdoch - All My Days youtu.be/MV_WDelQbJE and feeling just a little bit healed.

As @jaketapper reminds, on this day in 1954... more relevant words haven’t been uttered at a senate committee hearing, by Joeseph Welch. “Have you no sense of decency?”
