Still, sit. Sit.”

This book is painful and it is also beautiful, and everyone should read it.

Almost every line of this story would have been simply unbelievable a few months ago:

—Pioneering cancer researcher;
—*Arrested* at airport in Boston;
—Now indefinite ICE detention in Louisiana;
—"Crime": not declaring some frog-embryo samples for research.

Read it.

New images could change cancer diagnostics, but ICE detained the Harvard scientist who analyzes them
Without scientist Kseniia Petrova’s expertise, no one can fully unlock the data’s potential, putting crucial advancements in early cancer detection at risk.

I saw this over and over again, when I worked at TED. Men in tech leadership truly think that they are the first to have any thought that pops into their head, that they are the best equipped to solve any problem in the world, and that their lack of experience or expertise is actually an asset.
And arrogant.
Ive never encountered a class of people so convinced that they and they alone have the answers to everything, no matter what the subject in question is--from higher education to medicine to art and literature. They might have no training or skill in it, but are convinced they know best
Years ago, after the Cambridge Analytica scandal, I interviewed a former fb employee, and I remember her continually emphasizing that these tech bros weren't evil geniuses, but were, in fact, dangerous because they were utterly clueless, totally reckless, and had too much power.

My 4 year old was apparently concerned about the lack of dialogue during Flow, so she bravely provided her own shot-by-shot synopsis during the entire 1 hour 25 minute runtime. #flowmovie #movies #psitsgreatdefinitelyseeit

I’m sad that Sally Rooneys recent books aren’t getting more acclaim. Her descriptions of the way people feel, how they act, little awkward things that every other writer glosses over— no one else writes this way. #booksky

I would love if conservatives would take a beat to think about what “fact checkers are too politically biased” actually means. Do they know they’re saying the quiet part out loud? Do they care?
