The suicides of Anthony Bourdain and Kate Spade are chilling reminders of the stigma that still surrounds mental illness. Depression is a medical condition. We need to create a world where people are as comfortable seeking care for their minds as they are for their bodies.

Oh my god Alex Ovechkin was doing keg stands out of the Stanley Cup in the middle of Georgetown after throwing out the first pitch at a Nationals game and then ended up swimming half-naked in a fountain and I never thought i’d say this but this was all worth the 44-year wait 😂

Diaper bag ended up in a puddle of vomit (from the previous flight) on #Delta flight from RDU - SEA. Have contacted customer service to discuss, but haven’t heard back yet. A 6 hour flight with 2 kids is hard enough already... Delta

Advice for NCAA Bball teams: pick the best 10 players. Split into two teams of 5 to create pods. Rotate substitutions 5 at a time. Minimizes risk of whole team having to quarantine if there is an exposure. #keephopealive #NCAAB #NCAATournament #UNC

My initial mentor in palliative care. So much kindness, wisdom and teaching in J Randall Curtis Not surprising he is maintaining this perspective through this difficult time.

Nick Mullens is magic.   I need everyone to retweet this into existence please🙏🏼🙏🏼 #LVvsCLE Las Vegas Raiders Cleveland Browns
