Active recovery today for @MyPeakChallenge was Cody’s XOXO ride on @onepeloton.

Gonna remind you all to love yourselves.

Gonna also remind you that we’re going to need to make a lot more love to survive what’s up next.

If that’s your thing, go get it.

And also, really important: NO SETTLING.
(Side note: I forgot how creepy that video is LOL but the song was sure as shit fun to ride to after today's events.)

And now Sondland.

⁦@GOP⁩ you good? It’s not like you weren’t warned that you’d unleash a monster if you acquitted him.

Sondland was a MILLION DOLLAR DONOR.

Before too long, Trump’s going to his the @GOP so hard it hurts.

He won’t stop until he takes us ALL down.
*hit* I’m tweeting while lifting and I can’t feel my fingers LOL

OK, last Bern related comment for today:

My ex-husband supported Bernie in the 2016 election. Leaving aside all other bullshit, he believed he was generally woke and conscious, but could never explain the masculine vitriol that Bernie drew to his campaign.
It also didn't dissuade him, despite the *awful* sexist chanting at Bern events then, eclipsed only by the sexist attacks online right now from his supporters.

If you are a white guy who gets that Warren and Bern are generally on the same page politically--
--near to identical policies, similar moves toward healthcare and corporate accountability and anti-corruption-- and yet find yourself unable to explain the vitriol with which you are drawn to Bern over Warren, and excusing his supporters, I have an answer.

“Identity politics isn’t feminism” is legit what a white woman just tweeted at me in defense of Bernie Sanders.

I am prepared for a loooooong debate on white feminism and identity politics and failure and accountability (indeed, I am basically writing half a book about it).
But claiming that an issues-based revolution led by a white man should trump a phenomenal woman candidate who is on the same page, when we’ve NEVER had a woman president in this country, let alone one with this degree of awareness, b/c you don’t like identity politics?

NOPE.
And PS. these academic arguments don’t win elections for democrats, period.

Today, another Democratic nominee @JayInslee dropped the first plank of his climate plan. It’s a funny plan—at one wildly ambitious and business as usual. Some thoughts in a THREAD. theatlantic.com/science/archiv… 1/
The plan focuses on the lion's share (70%) of emissions, targeting three sectors: electricity, transportation and buildings. Yet when you dig into the details, things get more complicated. jayinslee.com/issues/100clean 2/
The electricity sector plan is: 2030 100% carbon-neutral; 2035 100% clean. This doesn’t make a lot of sense. I don’t really see how CCS plants will operate for a 5 year window. 3/

Today's @bopinion post is about the college bribery scandal, but really it's about the changing demographics of America.

bloomberg.com/opinion/articl…
2/The demographics of American talent have changed enormously.

Over the past 30 years, an enormous number of high-skilled immigrants have come to this country, primarily from Asia, Africa, and the Middle East.
3/This influx of talent SHOULD mean that our the American elite - executives, professors, politicians, top managers, administrators, celebrities, etc. - starts to look increasingly non-white as well.

Except it hasn't. Certainly not as much as it should have. Why?

1. Love is a subject that every one of us has an opinion on. However our emphasis is on the doing part of Love. #Love
2. The first component of Love is in John 3:16 - for God so love the world that He gave his only begotten Son. #Love
3. To love is to recognize value in someone and to demonstrate that recognition of value. #Love
