The exploitation of sexual assault victims on porn sites is not rooted in a single company but in an industry that operates with impunity, says @NickKristof, and punishing one corporation may simply benefit its rivals. https://t.co/T5SSRbEEHy https://t.co/3unNKxHRFL

I write in @nytopinion that time is running out for US on managing #Iran nuclear issue. Unless the administration is willing to acts decisively on lifting sanctions the brewing crisis can take a dangerous turn #JCPOA https://t.co/whARPOSDqk

"The most dangerous, most life-threatening police stop I’ve ever endured happened here in Minneapolis, back in the ’70s. But I must also say this: the best, most positive police stop I’ve ever been part of happened here, too," writes David Grant. https://t.co/aMZaNBOuGa

I got the J&J vaccine ten days ago, so the reported blood clotting disorders hits close to home.
Here's why I'm not losing sleep over this, and why the pause to get more data is the smart thing to do. My latest for @nytimes:

A 16-year-old girl sent a naked photo to her boyfriend with a message "I trust you," writes @NickKristof, but soon it was all over the internet, and her life collapsed — because companies profit from such imagery. https://t.co/G2otpS7MZo https://t.co/PfxrH81cUr

Children benefit by being around adults, but as @AlisonGopnik tells @ezraklein on today’s episode of The Ezra Klein Show, the reverse is also true. “Being with children can actually give adults a sense of this broader way of being in the world.” https://t.co/pLjgSlGuZ6
