The team at work got me an early birthday treat this morning from #BlinkiesDonuts! Yummy selection, including horchata, mango with Tajin, salted caramel, and birthday sprinkles (for good measure).
#SCOTUS on Thursday: #AffirmativeAction is wrong. #HigherEd must ignore centuries of systemic inequality and treat everyone the same.
#SCOTUS on Friday: #SmallBusiness can ignore the centuries old principle of #PublicAccommodation and treat #LGBTQ+ individuals differently.

For the first time ever, @HRC officially declared a state of emergency for LGBTQ+ Americans and issued a National Warning and Guidebook to ensure the safety of LGTBQ+ residents and travelers.

I drove 20 miles to work this morning after picking up 400 pieces of rugelach from Maury’s Bagels for our monthly town hall meeting and I’m proud to say that 399 pieces made it to the workplace safely!

Intriguing examples by @joshuamzeitz in @politico who posits that “some prominent cases [of betrayal] speak to the fragility of our union — but they also might just offer a bit of hope that, as it has in the past, the U.S. will persevere.”
Analysis: American history is littered with betrayals — of ideals, of parties, of the country itself. And all of them offer lessons for the future of American politics, writes @JoshuaMZeitz. politico.com/news/magazine/2…

The Gun Violence Archive has counted nearly 200 mass shootings (four or more people killed or injured) in the United States this year.
In another life, I'd like to be a fast-food reporter (which should probably come with a personal trainer).
Fascinating conversation between @MHarrisPerry and @YNPierce on @TheTakeaway @NPR @LAist about holding public faith in a secular democracy. Spoiler alert: One’s understanding of religion and relationship w/ God is personal and always evolving.
Stop me if you've heard this one before... A #paidmedia kit without #ad rates! I can appreciate your desire to launch into a #sales pitch but if I've asked for a media kit already why don't you save all of us a little time and effort? #marketingwoes
All of @Skirball_LA was closed today to let employees participate in a company-wide #professionaldevelopment. It was a day of learning and community building, and was a solid example of the Skirball putting their values into action. Not a bad place to work at all.
Last night, we continued a semi-regular tradition: spiked @mcdonalds #shamrockshake with a dash (or two) of Irish Cream!
Apparently, it’s #MyTwitterAnniversary I was maintaining a low profile because, well, you know… But maybe it’s time to cautiously re-emerge.

I just want to make a few things clear:
The Holocaust happened.
Hitler was a demonic figure.
And instead of giving it a platform, our political leaders should be calling out and rejecting antisemitism wherever it hides.
Silence is complicity.
We had an amazing time at #halloweeniela and Mayhem on Friday night into the wee hours of Saturday morning! I’m still recuperating!!
