My first "real" sec interview the manager told me I couldn't survive the "harsh-jargon, male dominated" office and to look elsewhere. I took the job, replaced the manager within a year and got the company to diversify. A decade later I run global orgs that solve exciting problems

Wow. @ingeveb has everyone eating their dust in Purim satires today. Whew!
If you liked #FidlerAfnDakh, boy have we got news for you! In geveb is thrilled to announce an exciting new project: the staging of several Broadway musicals, newly translated into Yiddish. ingeveb.org/blog/new-yiddish…

Also I drove all night in a borrowed Prius to snuggle this one since this weekend is their birthday <3 #YiddishLibe #queerlove
This week was fucking brutal, but I got to wear this band costume for Kadima's Walls & Borders themed Purim, & after our last song (one of my originals) ended, dancers sitting on the floor absorbing quietly for a couple mins they started singing it again so it's pretty alright

TOUR UPDATE: My friend and bandmate Dandelion had her van/traveling pocket theater/actual home broken into. We're throwing an impromptu fundraiser show tomorrow in Fresno, so come show Dandy some love! facebook.com/events/23143807…

Brazilian President Bolsonaro has:
-Praised torture
-Called refugees "scum of the world"
-Compared same-sex adoption to pedophilia
-Expressed admiration for Brazil’s military dictatorship
-Called for extrajudicial killings
We must call out human rights abuses worldwide.
As Bolsonaro tours the CIA and meets Trump at the White House, we must speak out against his human rights abuses and attacks on marginalized Brazilians. Our democratic principles cannot be sidelined.

Dick Dale literally dropped dead touring and could not afford the medical care he needed and could have lived and retired if we had a sane, universal health care policy but 🤷🏻♀️

White supremacists committed the largest # of extremist killings in 2017.
What the President is saying here: “if you engage in violent acts of white supremacy, I will look the other way.”
Understand that this is deliberate. This is why we can’t afford to sit on the sidelines.
Reporter: "Do you see white nationalism as a rising threat around the world?"
Trump: "I don't really."
We saw a nearly 50% increase in white nationalist hate groups between 2017 and 2018. splcenter.org/hate-map

Waze picked the WORST route coming home from errands and I'm in a stopped line of cars for construction

I LOVE how fired up our NY-14 town halls get. This is New York City!
Getting fired up means you care. I’d never discount the passion and courage it takes to stand up at a town hall.
So this was a great moment and an awesome opportunity to have this honest conversation. 💜
Specialized high school parents heckle @aoc at an education town hall and you won’t believe what happens next

GOP challenged me in committee, betting on an assumption that I didn’t know what I was talking about.
Spoiler: I knew what I was talking about.
Keep believing the patronizing trope about “not smart, but her heart’s in the right place.”
Makes em underprepare ¬ see us coming.

WATCH: Looting begins in #Venezuela as the people struggle amid no food, no medicine and NO ELECTRICITY. The crisis is growing very acute.
