Make way for footnotes 🦆🌴

I see people saying “why should we give free lunches to schoolchildren?” and I think some folks truly have no idea what it’s like to grow up in poverty, never knowing where your next meal is coming from, forever being one paycheck away from eviction. Let me explain some things.

many thanks to @NoraSlonimsky @markdboonie @benjamingwright for organizing a wonderful @TheITPS conference!

Wrapping up a wonderful @TheITPS conference with Prof Adam Rosado and the jazz ensemble performing modern arrangements of 18th century tunes, coming from our @MountVernon @GWBooks collab with @ionauniversity — one of my absolute favorite projects I get to work on

🥲 We love you too, New York. Thanks for fighting for your public libraries. The FY25 budget adopted today by @nyccouncil includes full restoration of funding for NYC public libraries. We couldn’t have done it without all of you!
