@tedgioia And he was one of the last students to study with Nadia Boulanger.

RIP Quincy Jones, who leaves us at age 91. No musician of his generation moved so effortlessly and brilliantly between styles and settings—collaborating with everyone from Frank Sinatra to Michael Jackson to Miles Davis. What a remarkable career!

NEW AD🌟 Introducing "American Girl" – a powerful anthem for women as we stand together to reclaim our freedoms at the ballot box! 🗳️💪 Our voices matter. It's time to defeat Trump & MAGA extremism!🇺🇸 #AmericanGirl #WeWontGoBack

BREAKING: Michelle Obama just laid into Donald Trump like no one has before. Retweet to make sure all Americans see this takedown.

By @jerushahruth: “Trump's words and actions are fundamentally incompatible with evangelical principles. Contrary to some who claim he has been anointed by God to lead; Trump cannot return the U.S. to faithfulness. Sadly, by embracing such a megalomaniac, Christians have been turning away those who are curious about the Lord. We lose credibility when we say God is love, but then rally, and sometimes even riot, in support of an individual whose entire worldview centers on himself.” t.co/dkRaa1uiUG

BREAKING: Make sure every American sees this headline.

NYT Editorial Board: Kamala Harris is the only patriotic choice for President

@AmbroseElaine And ice cream!! 😏

@BrynDonovan I’m in.

@henryalford Brilliant. 🥂🥂

RFK, Jr. is as close as you can get to seeming like you have a neck tattoo without actually having a neck tattoo

@mattfraser_9 @NikonUSA @VisitSacramento @DowntownSac @exploresacto @Sacramento365 @Love_Sacramento @VisitCA @castatecapitol Fabulous photo.

Putting things into epic perspective with a casual walk around the Capitol.

@jenchentran Waving hello from California 🙋‍♀️. Fun watching your career grow and grow 🥂

Thanks everyone for your excellent questions. I had fun answering. I’ll try this again in a few weeks because I love interacting with writers near and far. Stay tuned and be well!

Haven’t done one of these in a while and I miss chatting with y’all so please feel free to ask me anything related to publishing. No question is too silly. #AMAagent

@arthistorynews No kidding. I’m supposed to have lunch in an hour with a political cartoonist but I’m kinda thinking hi might cancel on me. 😏

The Sunday afternoon shift on CNN can’t believe their luck.

Women feel that way about their bodies.

@henryalford Killer title. Congrats on thinking that one up. 👍🥂

Coming out in January! (Some blurbs below.)

@SteveMagagnini I’d love to hear what you find out as I give a Literary Secrets of Sacramento tour and talk about local authors.

@NewYorker Forgotten? I saw an exhibit of her work at the Nevada Art Museum in Reno about five years ago.

Anne Brigman was an artist who helped shape American modernist, feminist, and landscape photographic traditions—and she was one of the first women to photograph herself in the nude. nyer.cm/V5InjjA

@Jeopardamy Kings fan here, so I’m excited. Sorry about that. But what you’ve written here is a lovely way to acknowledge what the Warriors and SC have achieved in the past few years. Here’s to a fabulous bunch of guys and their fabulous coach. 🥂🥂

My dad got to watch The Big Red Machine in the ‘70s, and I used to wonder if I would ever get that chance, the chance to have *my team* not just win a championship, but to dominate an era, change the history of the game. Some people never do

@atrubek Do tell…

@davidhogg111 Fewer. Fewer cowards, less gun violence. 😏

We need more Democrats in the senate and less cowards

Just so you all know even if Dems get 60 votes in the senate and a majority in the house they aren’t going to pass an assault weapons ban. Anyone who says they will either doesn’t know what they’re talking about or is lying. They’ll raise tens of millions saying they will ban assault weapons but they won’t because the second they get those 60 votes they’ll say the policy is too risky to pass to help preserve their majority. To actually get action we’d need to abolish the filibuster and build a massive PAC and super PAC of $100 million to help get a majority and primary any Dem who’s not good on guns.

You can’t fucking claim to love freedom when half your agenda is controlling what half the population does with their bodies and stop people from accessing gender affirming care simply so they can exist as who they are. Bigotry and patriarchy are antithetical to freedom.
