    Any parents out there actually successfully managing their kids’ screen time? If so, please share your wisdom because things are not pretty around here. Okay, fine. They’re downright uuhh-gly around here.

    I made a vow that every Thursday during the pandemic we’d have homemade pasta. So far: linguini, spaghetti, gnocchi, lasagna, ravioli, rigatoni, bucatini, fettuccini, fusilli, pappardelle, tagliatelle, tortellini, orecchiette, garganelli, malfatti. I thought it would end sooner.

    Like snark? Our back-and-forth in American Psychologist with (self-described) scholar who has been "studying creativity for over 50 years." Thanks to Twitter for pointing me to the Meyer et al. 2001 paper on effect sizes, which gave ammo for a sharp rebuttal. See below.

    Such a touching story Reminds me of my own father and all that he sacrificed ❤️

    Before starting my junior year of college, I made a trip to the local Walmart. I shopped for chicken, eggs, and milk when I noticed a man shyly approaching other customers. He looked to be in his forties, and I could overhear him nervously speaking in Spanish. 1/x

    This is 🔥advice. But before you are able to do this, you need to have a super clear view of what you mission is. It doesn’t have to be super defined, but it has to be super clear. Most struggle with that part.

    A powerful question to ask when faced with both large and small decisions: How does this map to my mission?

    This makes me want to cry with frustration. What are we doing?! Why can’t we get our act together as a country??

    Baltimore families waited in line for more than an hour in 100 degree heat in hopes of getting a laptop so their kids could fully participate in remote learning

    We’re in the middle of a pandemic. Have some grace. There are much bigger issues that you can lend your voice to, I promise.

    Honestly, sick of ppl trying to shame others. If you don’t want to post, or if you don’t have a hot photo, then just don’t. There’s nothing wrong w women who are always getting torn down posting confident photos of themselves. I posted. Proudly.

    Supporting women and destroying the patriarchy by uploading a hot black and white photo of myself

    ❤️ Reminds me of few months ago, got a note from a man who was in and out of rehab. He said after reading my book, was determined to stay clean. He sends me an email every week saying he’s clean another week ❤️ Shared his story in my newsletter last month

    There’s this man on TikTok who has been trying to kick his soda addiction. He posts every single day just to tell you that he’s had “no fizzy drinks today” and it is the most wholesome and endearing thing.

    My relatives in Asia are utterly confused as to why wearing a mask is such an issue here. Why it’s even a thing. It’s like they’re watching a reality show and trying to understand what’s going on. There’s a direct correlation btwn spread of virus and mask wearing. So??... 🤷🏻‍♀️

    Sunday sermon: Sending kids back to school, knowing at least 14,000 children will die, is actually the plot of The Hunger Games – sacrificing children for the economy, politics, and the entertainment industry.

    One of the most well-explained possible explanations for a question that I’ve been wondering for some time... why some people are asymptomatic and others fall seriously ill to

    One of the biggest mysteries of Covid-19 has been why some people become very ill, while a large number of people who are infected show no symptoms at all. It turns out that this protection may be linked to the most mundane of illnesses…the common cold. A thread.
