Curbs represent the twilight of skateboarding, the end being closer than the beginning. Our reporter Conor Dougherty set out to write about a Costco parking lot whose curbs have become a hotspot for skaters over 40. In the process, he realized the piece was actually about loss.

For those responding to the #supremecourt last week. Here is what I wrote about it for our letter to the #future
We are still here. And yet, I find myself returning to this truth: the institutions, even the ones we love and lead, were not designed to heal what ails us. They were designed to manage it.

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.

Liam should be with friends and having a childhood, not living in this nightmare!
Just visited with Liam and his father at Dilley detention center. I demanded his release and told him how much his family, his school, and our country loves him and is praying for him.

That’s a #good dog!
Today's #goodnews tells how Aloka found the monks while during a peace walk in India. Now, they're walking from Texas to D.C. with Aloka in the lead.
Even when Aloka was hit by a car & got sick he refused to ride in a vehicle. He wanted to be with the monks to provide support & inspiration. 😊

This is so spot on!
Don't forget folks: allowing yourself a vision of the future you'd want for our country and planet - not the one you'd settle for, not the one you fear, but the future of your dreams - isn't naive, it's a vital cognitive skill. That's how we articulate what we most value. What's worth fighting for.
Instead of whatever this is, we should have a government getting lots of new homes and apartments built, lots of clean energy built, lots of high speed rail and transit and bike lanes built, human rights for everyone, economic & healthcare opportunities for all, & innovation that leads the world.

Are we good ancestors? #ancestors #liberation I really want to know what you think. I am almost done turning around this manuscript and want to know if people believe we are good ancestors.

#writers I am getting closer to my publishing day for my book. My other books launched before the pandemic, so I really don’t know how or what to do now. Any advice for #book #marketing by #authors. I have a great publisher but I want to be up to speed with how to do this well.
