I think someone hacked my amazon prime account and bought Little Women. But like, I needed to watch Little Women anyway, so thanks.

Someone should be given a medal for putting song titles and artist names in closed captions for tv shows. It’s like having a little Shazam wizard. And speaking of wizards, I think i’m now officially an old man.

It's okay to not be okay. A lot of people are sharing misinformation in the news media and on social media sites. It's a strange and uncertain time. Trust what's in your heart. Not anecdotes. Time Crisis bless.

As millions of people across the country take to the streets and raise their voices in response to the killing of George Floyd and the ongoing problem of unequal justice, I’ve heard many ask how we can sustain momentum to bring about real change.

Been thinking a lot about things that have been helpful for me as a white person trying to understand structural racism and my place in it – and become better moving forward. There's lots of resources out there but I hope something in this list reaches someone who needs it.

So I was talking with my mom about #DefundThePolice. And she asked me a question: how could what happened to Rayshard Brooks happen, at this moment, in this uprising? How could police keep...doing this? So this is what I said.

Our civil liberties are on brink. This is not a drill. There is no excuse for snatching women off the street and throwing them into unmarked vans. To not protect our rights is to give them away. It is our responsibility to resist authoritarianism.

This is the text I just received after asking my best friend ( pulmonary and critical care doctor) how she was doing. #WearAMask #SocialDistance

On a day for the history books, Amanda Gorman delivered a poem that more than met the moment. Young people like her are proof that "there is always light, if only we're brave enough to see it; if only we're brave enough to be it."

I just joined Re-Imagine L.A. County in sending an email to the L.A. County Board of Supervisors demanding they invest the funding from vacated public service positions into services. Will you join me? #ReimagineLA reimagine.la/petition/ via Re-Imagine L.A. County

1. The single best way to understand Iran's uprising is not any book or essay, but Shervin Hajipour's 2m anthem "Baraye" which garnered over 40m views in 48h (before he was imprisoned). Its profundity requires multiple views. (Translation by Siavash Ardalan)
