It's been a pretty amazing day since the publication of the op-Ed. I'm happy to see it's generating so much discussion! A few things I want to add, now that I see what folks are stumbling on... (op-Ed linked again here for reference) washingtonpost.com/opinions/2023/…

Thanks for publishing two of my poems, @SherahBloor! The event was great and I'm glad readers could take advantage of screen-sharing, gave the program an interesting texture. Miss going to workshop! (See thread to download the full issue...)

Wendy Davis called me on Monday!! She continues to inspire. Please consider giving to her extremely close race (it seriously is) against a basic PAC-propped Cruz crony, especially if you live in a blue state. I lived in TX for 3 years - it CAN go blue! secure.actblue.com/donate/dav_web…

The first time I heard "defund the police" I was like "huh, but how would that work?" then I googled it and read and listened to what a bunch of folks were saying. You don't have to be reactionary, defensive, hear one thing that scares you and just hide. GOOGLE IS FREE!!

Boston, do not miss your chance to see the rarely-produced musical "Parade" by @MoonboxBoston! 7 more performances. Amazing singers and choreography. Devastating but not exhausting. Beautiful, buoyant score. moonboxproductions.org/#new-page-3

On false balance in journalism - a thread. I worked in advanced driver training for teenagers for 30 years. I’m also a qualified teacher of the deaf, so have some basic understanding of both statistics & language use. I’d like to point out how “telling both sides” is so wrong.

I loved the wonderfully curated Olivia Parker retrospective at the @peabodyessex. Closes Monday, 11/11 - do not miss it! My review for @AEQAI: bit.ly/331NOUS (Pictured: Feral Tape, 1984)

AND: fire any curator/board who thinks #peopledoingyoga is an adequate replacement title for #whitepeopledoingyoga. Artless to boot. motherjones.com/media/2019/10/…

"One way or another, society is already bearing these costs—mostly in the form of care provided by stressed-out, uncompensated women who have the misfortune of having a family member who needs care and can’t afford to pay for it." -@g_gedye washingtonmonthly.com/magazine/july-…
