Sooooo that means I have no idea when I can even get that, which also means I’m out of that money indefinitely.

I’ll be OK, not asking for funds to cover it. But it also means I won’t have time (or money) for Christmas stuff this year.

Sorry to all who wanted a card. <3

Just totaled up final expenses for the funeral — it’s $4.5K (not including family dinners and reception prep). Insurance should take care of $3K, but not until I can get a certified copy of the death certificate.

By the way, did you know the MD Dept of Health was hacked??

Man, I really really love my company. I cannot thank @HobieOtt@twitter.com enough for providing my the opportunity to be here.

They've been so, so understanding through this difficult time AND incredibly supportive of my career ambitions. I almost feel guilty working here.

I sincerely hope more folks in the Online Left are making resolutions to be gentle yet firm next year.

If we want to live in a kinder world, we have to learn to be kinder people.

There are far too many children boarding this flight, pray for me

At the airport, and indulging in my final chance to have blue crab for a little bit. Spinach crab dip at Brix & Wine, with Old Bay baguette crisps. :9

Honestly, MD crabs are the absolute best, dungeness sucks, don't @ me

Reminders:

Forcing women out of clothing is as violent as forcing them into it.

Pushing a narrative that it is bad for women to choose their own clothing for spiritual, emotional or personal reasons is harmful.

Shaming Muslim women or girls who cover is gendered Islamophobia.

It’s been an intense week, but the memorial service happened yesterday and I’ll be heading back to CA today.

It felt so good to reconnect with family after being away for so long, and I learned a lot about Mom and her place in the family.

She was loved, and will be missed.

here's today's piping hot take: at some point, the left is going to have to reckon with how the concept of tone policing, which was & is its own necessary issue, has been coopted and weaponised by people who want an excuse to act like raging assholes without being called on it.
