Feeling so sad without my brother. On the eve of my birthday, I’m struck that he was (is?) my greatest ally and friend. No one cared for me or got me like he did. He was so loving and so giving. Sweet Sam, I miss you.

"For me, as much as any of her legal opinions, Ginsburg’s close friendship with the late Justice Antonin Scalia is core to her legacy," writes @rudoren forward.com/opinion/454790…

@bethanyrberger Ruth Bader Ginsburg understood that gender equality would require much more than same treatment of women and men. It would require reproductive liberty, prohibitions on gender stereotyping, and economic security. I think she believed in a strong welfare state, too.

In the past 36 hours: we learned that my husband has a serious heart issue, we learned that my elderly father-in-law has symptoms of Covid, our dog got out and was missing for almost 3 hours, and I learned a high school friend was killed in a motorcycle accident. I hate 2020

Excellent interview with Deborah Berkowitz about OSHA's failure to enforce the law. Agency received 18,000 Covid complaints, and turned its back on 12,000. Many Say OSHA Not Protecting Workers During COVID-19 Pandemic npr.org/2020/07/04/887…

We do need to create systems that allow working mothers both to care for their children and to keep their jobs. Reopening schools & daycare centers does not seem a straightforward solution, though. We also need to safeguard the health of teachers and childcare workers. Models?

This piece by @ejdickson is beautiful and @StephanieCoontz's reference to a "crack in time" from the Benet poem took my breath away. Let's hope that this crack in time allows us to build a better system for working families. rollingstone.com/culture/cultur…

This article shows one way the pandemic may prompt the reshaping of employment policies to better support families. I am not equally optimistic that trends for highly-paid workers will be universalized, though we should aim for that. nytimes.com/2020/06/21/opi…

In case you missed this earlier, as I did, read @ProfCatherine on the intersection of the "Color of Covid" and the "Gender of Covid." Black and Latina women disproportionately represented among both unemployed and"essential" workers in increasingly stratified workforce.
