I’m greenlighting this script.
At work, sobbing quietly at my desk. I am so sorry to read this news. Ady Barkan was a hero. youtube.com/watch?v=HQcdrmzZ…
Hi all, this is Ady’s wife, Rachael. I’m devastated to share the news that Ady has died from complications of ALS. You probably knew Ady as a healthcare activist. But more importantly he was a wonderful dad and my life partner for 18 years. [1/4]

URGENT: do I know anyone near the Budawangs in NSW? My cousin is camping there. He’s been waiting for a kidney transplant and we’ve just been told that a kidney is available - but only if he can get to Adelaide by tomorrow (Sunday). He’s out of phone range and we can’t reach him!
We have been given this extraordinary chance to begin healing our country. I will forever be in awe of @mdavisqlder, Pat Anderson, Marcia Langton, Pat Dodson, Noel Pearson, and so so many more for their overwhelming kindness, dedication, and wisdom.
Is it unsettling to anyone else when a journalist on a news chat show refers to a politician solely by their first name?

This feels so much like the worst gut punch. Astonishingly beautiful voice. One of the best we have ever heard in popular music, and it came with so much conviction, so much fight. Forever in awe of her. And grateful she shared her talent. RIP, dear Sinead irishtimes.com/culture/music…

What an extraordinary human being he was. More than a singer and exquisite stylist, he stood for justice and lifted people’s hearts. Thinking of my mom and my Italian American grandmother today. 💔
Tony Bennett, a singer whose audience-embracing persona helped spread the American songbook around the world, died on Friday in Manhattan. He was 96. His career was remarkable for both its longevity and its consistency. nyti.ms/3Q85wkS
I love chickpeas but enough already.
"Try these. They're a life-changing experience." A lighter, easier take on classic American potato salad, this version uses canned chickpeas in place of potatoes and favors Greek yogurt over mayonnaise. nyti.ms/3Nr6tCX
