    Suddenly, today, I panicked about life inching back toward “normal.” I don’t want to travel endlessly for work. I don’t want my weekends to be over-committed with activities. I don’t want to miss bedtime with my kid. I don’t want to wear blazers — or, hell, even shoes.

    This year has been heartbreaking, depressing, paralyzing — in almost every way. But some things about it have also been liberating, and I have to figure out how to cling to those things in a vaccinated future — even when others expect me not to.

    My daughter is young enough that she won’t remember a time when there had never been a woman Vice President. And I fucking love that for her.

    It wasn’t just weights. Women players were also given cheaper, less accurate COVID tests than men. Seriously, what century are we living in?

    Officials apologized for providing inadequate facilities for the women’s basketball players, but later acknowledged they were also receiving cheaper, less sensitive coronavirus tests.

    Over the last year, our kids have endured catastrophe after catastrophe with a level of grace, patience and resilience most of their grown-ups can rarely muster. I’m so proud of them — and worried for them.

    Several minutes ago, @ProjectLincoln posted a series of screenshots of private Twitter DMs showing reporting by one of our journalists — not long after she sent @ProjectLincoln a series of questions to respond to for a story.

    Two episodes in: “I do not know what this Ted Lasso fuss is all about.” Nine episodes in: “NOTHING HAS EVER GIVEN ME THIS MUCH JOY.”

    This is the best-moderated debate I've seen in... a decade? Strong questions, excellent real-time fact-checking. Really well-executed.
