| This has been a sad, terrible week – one that reminds us that despite outward appearances, you really never know what kind of pain or struggles people are dealing with internally. We lost Kate Spade and Anthony Bourdain, two cultural iconoclasts – and lost them in the most tragic way possible. | This has been a sad, terrible week – one that reminds us that despite outward appearances, you really never know what kind of pain or struggles people are dealing with internally.

| I don’t know anyone whose lives haven’t been touched by suicide, and the problem in America is only growing – since 1999, the rate went up 25%.

| An Iowa judge has temporarily blocked the state’s extreme anti-abortion law, ruling that it was unconstitutional. It’s not over by a long shot – anti-choice advocates want to take this one to the supreme court – but I’ll take my good news where I can get it. | |

| Underneath his “I don’t give a fuck” punk persona, he was clearly someone who deeply gave a fuck. And who felt a moral urgency to tell stories of people with less power, to teach us the histories of war & oppression, and to persuade us that we are all more similar than different. | Underneath his “I don’t give a fuck” punk persona, he was clearly someone who deeply gave a fuck.
