Happy Thanksgiving, everyone!
Today I’m especially thankful for those who keep the world working even on holidays and those who work every day to make the world just a little better (best of all when that includes acts of kindness).

WeRateDogs turns 10 years old today! A very silly idea to numerically objectify dogs has become one of the kindest and most powerful online communities ever. Thank you for joining us over the last decade. I never knew what this could be until you all showed me. Here's to many more good dogs ❤️

It’s time for an important conversation about school start times.
We can improve student health and performance and still address the complicated schedules of today’s teenagers and families.
I’m excited to be a part of this effort with Dr. Battle and @metroschools.bsky.social.
