Makes me wish the only bathtub in my house wasn’t full of toddler toys.
I’ve been busy creating an oasis for the women in my life. They deserve to bathe like queens 👑

It would be easier if we had a Congressional inquiry on what Justice Thomas *has* paid for out of pocket.

Covid is bad now, apparently
At Trump's NY trial, Trump attorney Chris Kise objects to the fact that trial has resumed today even though 4 members of the AG’s team tested positive for COVID last week. Kise says many are vulnerable to COVID, including himself: “Nothing else matters except pursuing President Trump.” — Lisa Rubin

Husband: “I can confirm that we are too old to drink 3 martinis in one night.”
Me: “No shit. That’s why I only had two. You went on that journey of discovery alone.”

Everyone needs to hear this. I need to hear it. I need to remember it.
If your parents can't accept your gender or sexuality, they are failing you - you are not failing them.
A parent's job is to help our children become the best version of themselves, not the version we might expect them to be.
You are not flawed, beautiful soul.
You. are. just. right.

I had six security personnel to protect me and the crowd at this book launch event. The previous night, I had five. This was needed for everyone’s safety.
Trans people are not safe in this current climate, and as much as I talk about the good stuff, we can’t ignore the bad stuff either.

Wearing a mask these days sure gets me a lot of people asking “are you sick?”
I wish there were a succinct (and non-argumentative) way of saying, “no, I’m just unusually dedicated to, you know… the opposite of that”

I don't understand the stigma. The brain's not special; it's just another organ. Dodgy pancreas? Take insulin. Too much stomach acid? Take indigestion meds. Too little serotonin? Apparently you're a failure and a bad person...? Bullshit to that. It's not a moral failing just because it's your brain.

Jews have been warned there is a day planned for antisemitic attacks on the global Jewish community. Do not turn away. Do not shrug it off.
This is when Palestinians and Israelis, Muslims and Jews, EVERYONE should come together to denounce ALL violence.

If you’re queer and you have some joy in your life, share that shit.
There’s so much that is awful and scary in this world right now and much of it is aimed directly at us. Demonstrate hope. Demonstrate light. People in our community need to see it.
