Took Sally to the vet today. After a lot of time with two vets, they came back to tell us has a cancer mass. It is in place here it is difficult to get a biopsy and surgery would be very hard. Vet gave us options but we asked what he would do.

I am also cracking up as the kids get more and more hyper. The fact Mamdani just laughs and keeps rolling is awesome.

Child at the podium: “A woo woo woo.”
Mamdani: That’s how I felt when we came up with this plan. Together, we will expand the idea of what is possible in our city—and what sounds and noises we can make at a press conference.

I think often of the women in the Louis CK story—how they all left comedy and never went back, but he’s still going. It’s everywhere and it’s such a loss for them and for us—for things they’ll never make that we’ll never see.
the Epstein files are really devastating because they remind me of how many girls and women miss out on professional opportunities, mentorship and careers because of how many powerful, rich and influential men only view girls and women — and interactions with them — through the lens of sex

tomorrow i would really like to challenge a few folks with larger followings than me to adopt a rent and raise it in one day.
my little group chat and my followers have paid like 70 families rents in the past four days. i believe that some of y’all could help us keep one family housed.

It has been a pretty rough week & the world isn't helping my mood, so I try to find some positives to focus on.
for Father's Day 2015, my girls took me to the Star Trek exhibit at a local museum & it was a great day. Seeing them all sitting on the bench together reminds me how blessed I am.
