    I can’t believe I missed a night of cleanliness (or lack thereof) twitter. My absolute favorite part of the internet, no joke, is learning about people’s non-shower habits. I am *fascinated*

    I am excited to share my TED talk. I delivered this a few hours after learning my baby daughter, Nusayba, was diagnosed with cancer. Needless to say it was a challenging week. My wife said stay and do the talk for our daughter. I hope I made her proud.

    You know how people will send a note asking if anyone has Advil? Would it be weird for me to message my colleagues seeking a single stick-on fingernail to get me through the afternoon and evening?

    Dispense with the weasel word "arguably," dear writer, as anything and everything can - and will be - argued.

    A pregnancy fact I didn't know until extremely recently is that by the time you miss your period, you are already 4, and likely 5, weeks pregnant. Which seems like a key fact to understanding these 6-week abortion bans.

    It's the political analogy to "not a racist bone in my body." It signals "those people will never be satisfied" rhetoric that whips up base, activates idea of them self as moral, nice bigots. Draws bright red line around identity politics of the base.

    Honest question: why are Republicans, who have almost no African-American support, constantly talking about black unemployment rates? Trump and his followers (Rep. Gaetz just did it) never stop talking about it.

    I mean. I think they GET it. I don’t think they care about it.

    Really stuck on this "relocating an ectopic pregnancy" thing. They just honestly don't get that there is a whole person surrounding the uterus and tubes, do they?

    I can always tell when I'm a tiny bit tipsy because it takes me a few tries to unlock my phone. Today that is happening to me because of coffee 😬
