We shifted our Clarity Act Spaces to Friday at 12:30 EDT so the ink is barely dry when we go live.
Joining us is @EleanorTerrett, the journalist who has been in the room, on the hill, closer to this story than anyone. She will break down exactly what it means for crypto.
Friday. 12:30 PM. Don't miss it.

Hi @TorontoHydro I have a serious issue. My landlord changed our wiring and we are supposed to get new electrical turned on. But they said they are waiting on you. It’s been over 3 months now.
Can you please provide a timeline? They have left gaping holes in our ceilings saying that until you come they can’t fix the holes

@maggielove_ @shefiorg 1000000% this. I feel the same about my daughter. I don’t feel any regret or mourning for older version of me.

Summer turned one yesterday.
Her first word is "ahh-choo." She takes two steps and then sits down, looks at me like she's checking if I saw. She screams like a pterodactyl in restaurants. She loves to be held by her grandparents. She shares her food with anyone who'll take it. I wake up every morning and think, I made the best human in the world, and I know every mother thinks that, and I still think it.
Everyone warns you about the death of the maiden, the version of you that exists before motherhood. The late nights, the freedom, the body you used to live in, the life that was just yours. They tell you to grieve her. I braced for that.
The grief never came. At least not yet.
Maybe it will. Maybe I wake up in two years and want her back. But right now, a year in, I don't feel like I lost something. Life feels rounder. I have to miss things now. I have to make different decisions. My body isn't what it was. My weekends belong to a person who just learned to walk. I'd been told my life would get smaller. It feels like I got more whole, not less.
That doesn't mean it wasn't hard. Going back to work was hard. I cried. Two days a week at three months, and even that felt like too much too soon. The mornings when Summer has separation anxiety and I have to hand her over, screaming, and say goodbye. I'm rethinking things I never thought I'd rethink. There are days I just want an hour that's mine. There are moments that are lonely in a way I wasn't prepared for.
But the surprise of this year is not how hard it is. Everyone tells you that part. The surprise is how much I love the closeness. How physical motherhood is and how much I want it that way. I'm still breastfeeding — day and night, more hours than I could count — not because I should be but because it's this tiny, warm place of bonding that I can't imagine ending. I'm her immune system. Her nutrition. Her comfort at 2 AM when nothing else works. I was designed for this in a way that still amazes me, a year in.
When she's sick, I take the day off. When I make a weird sound and she belly-laughs, I do it again. And again. Until she's gasping. A lot of parenting is mostly just being a good clown. You find what makes your specific person light up and you don't stop.
She's reconnecting me to something I lost a long time ago. My own ability to be completely absorbed by a moment. To think a sound is the funniest thing that's ever happened. Neuroplasticity disguised as peek-a-boo.
I can't believe she's not a newborn anymore. She looks like a toddler. I can see the girl she's becoming and it takes my breath away and also makes me want to slow everything down.
A year ago I cracked myself open and something new walked out. Two things, actually — her, and whoever I am now.
Happy birthday, Summer. Nothing is you.
