People wonder why our teenagers grapple with mental health? In the middle of a pandemic, when it seems like the world is falling apart around us, I spent today explaining to one weeping teenager why, even after going to tutors, taking the SAT 5 times, and working her 1/6

Am I the only one who now sort of wishes not having read The Handmaid's Tale? I love your work, @MargaretAtwood, but I seriously worry that you might be a visionary.

I don't know who had the idea to sit @PeteButtigieg down with undecided Michigan voters and just let him cook, but this is just brilliant content strategy.

Cardi B, who is campaigning with Kamala Harris today in Milwaukee, is a policy nerd and an FDR historian. I loved when her high school history teacher defended her on Facebook.

Just a reminder that you are doing your best, and that’s more than enough. It’s okay to take it one day at a time.

Just here to declare my continuing beef with Honors College prompts that ask students to tell them why they want to be in the Honors College. They're 17 yo and they barely even know what college itself will be like, so why don't you just say, "Read our website and summarize it?"

We flew over Hurricane Milton about 90 minutes ago. Here is the view out the Dragon Endeavour window. Expect lots of images from this window as this is where I’m sleeping while we wait to undock and return to Earth. Timelapse coming in a separate post. 1/6400 sec, f8, ISO 500
