The thing I donāt understand is why everyone I know needs a follow-up ultrasound and why we canāt just go straight to ultrasound and skip the more painful and non-diagnostic step of the mammogram?
And then when 2 babies get married and have 2 kids and now the family is made up of 3 babies and 1 eldest child⦠there is an extreme lack of preparedness⦠totally hypothetical, of courseā¦
Also his last scene in the car with Shiv - his response to her congrats being a stoic āno no noā completely changed my view of him. This is what he wanted and he wasnāt showing at all that he was happy about it - heās a stone cold killer. Truly āefficientā acting.
Roman was begging Kendall to mess him up so that he had a visible, plausible explanation for why he couldnāt be CEO: cuz he wasnāt physically fit for the job. It gave him an out & allowed him to save face, preserve his ego & continue to tell himself & others it couldāve been him
not just about going out in public. Itās about going anywhere, having any plans at all, the variations on routine, having moments to look forward to. Our time is now less filled with time-marking memories. Everything is the same.
Really proud of this good, important research that my friend @MitaliNagrecha does to understand how the judicial system can bring equity to those most in need. Amazing to see it changing court procedures North Carolina. theatlantic.com/politics/arcā¦

So excited to share that I've joined @kodewithklossy as president! After working in tech for 17 yrs, I've seen how much gender and racial imbalance there is in the industry, and how urgently we need to change it. I'm thrilled to join KWK so we can increase the access (1/3)

I have a big life/work update!
This year, my partner Andrew Chang & I have been building something new & weāre so excited to share it.
Weāve thought a lot about how hard it is to build a startup, no matter who you are. /1
Excited to share that I'm an investment partner at Next Wave NYC, a new pre-seed fund from @flybridge designed to catapult NYC's most innovative startups into the global spotlight. With a focus on AI & developer platforms, we're here to back the game changersĀ #NextWaveNYC

The feedback I've heard on the @southpkcommons
experience has been 100% positive so I'm excited to invite founders to meet the team in the NYC office, which itself has a deep NYC tech legacy as the former home to legends like @Foursquare@Techstars & @classpass! /
We started working remotely a year ago & have hired 65+ people since then. Most of these new @PaxosGlobal employees have never met one another in person! And yet, we feel so close & operate so smoothly. Itās beautiful. Paxos.com/careers

What a lovely thought. Would have appreciated public credit on all the bylines, op eds, Senate testimonies, whitepapers, speeches, TED talks, etc I wrote during my PR career.
We didnāt win. But there are 6000+ people in NY assembly district 56 who have expressed their desire for a more progressive form of justice in their neighborhood, and their voices have been heard, and they are getting closer to it. For that Iām proud of this campaign.
I think we need a diff model that adjusts for the very real lower risk tolerance and privilege of poc & women. Rather than looking for founders & incubating ideas, funds should be incubating ppl. Hire them, incubate them, support them then spin them out around Series B stage.
This is really important: when inventing new technology, be thoughtful about its implications *in advance.* It's the right way to introduce new tech to the world. Here's more on @Foursquare's approach.

A really easy thing we can all do to respect each otherās cultures and personal identities: ask people how they pronounce their name, learn it, say it, confirm you said it correctly. Do this whenever you meet someone whose name seems unfamiliar or ambiguous in pronunciation.

This is silly and makes no sense. In-house comms still costs $ and can range in quality.
And most importantly, you missed the actual top tier outcome: when the crisis doesnāt appear to happen at all.
I had nothing to do with the film Parasite except that itās the only movie Iāve gone to the theater to watch in a few years. Yet I feel so proud, like somehow I am sharing in this victory. It feels great to win. āŗļø
