Remembering, with shock and sadness, the brilliant Lyra McKee. Please watch her TEDx talk - I was lucky enough to have been there when she gave it. She worked so hard for so many, I’ll never forget her.

Once you’ve done this, go to a concert alone. Preferably general admission. Best live experiences EVER.
Your quarterly reminder that going to the movies alone is the best thing ever.

Why don't you send Kendall to the White House with a can of Pepsi? I mean, that's the solution to all our political issues, right?
This AM, @POTUS attacked trans people fighting for our country. Every American should be outraged. My full response:

I’m guessing this year there are no “New Year’s SHAME” roundups in the British press showing passed out girls in snowy Northern doorways with their tube dresses hiked up and no friend or coat in sight. Sigh. Another tradition lost to Coronavirus.

I don’t think I’ve ever enjoyed @Eurovision as much as I did this year, and it’s all down to the ladies. Blown away! And I DEMAND an opera-length expansion upon EAEA, one of the most hauntingly gorgeous moments this contest has ever produced. WOW.

Today might just have to be the day. I spent so much time reading about it, devouring every morsel I could, picking it apart to anyone who’d listen and relishing its defeat in the public imagination. Yes, today might just be the day I finally watch CATS.

I cannot tell you how much this resonates - looking for senior living for my mother, all they played was schmaltzy lounge and Frank Sinatra. If I’m going to live in an old folks home, I want Drag Brunch on Sundays and every Monday is Blue Monday: New Wave/Goth classics ONLY.

New from the States is gut-wrenching. This evil is absurd, grotesque, and will not stand. Families with nothing who risk their lives to make something better in the US deserve our compassion and respect. Anything less is SINFUL. #KeepFamiliesTogether.
