I’m playing trivia in a bar and I just felt someone very deliberately brush up against my rear end and I can’t even begin to tell you how relieved I was to discover it was a German Shepherd. 🐕

Got an email today from someone who didn't like a story I reported instructing me to "get a grip and answer to your God." I'm sorry, but both my faith and my profession have taught me to speak the truth even when it's hard to hear.

Just ending a very long and horrible day in #VirginiaBeach , and I see a text from beloved friends who’ve just brought the most beautiful baby boy into this world, and I’m tearing up. This is why we can’t give up and must try to make this place better.

Someone I'm close to, who votes opposite her parents, recently told me that her mother told her like-minded women seem "more like a daughter" to her than she does. Whatever your ideology, if it stands in the way of unconditionally loving your own family, you're doing it wrong.

Most people are completely understanding when I have to cancel an interview because I've already got enough (and want to respect everyone's time). But sometimes I get a response like this. Which is honestly a big mood.

INBOX: Statement from @APA CEO: “Blaming mental illness for the gun violence in our country is simplistic and inaccurate and goes against the scientific evidence currently available. “The United States is a global outlier...The one stark difference? Access to guns."

On Sunday, while I was lying in bed with Covid, one of my kids heard a little chirping sound in the fireplace. I dragged myself out of bed to discover a baby robin had fallen down the chimney. I was this close to throwing it in the backyard and going back to bed…
