Normally I write kids books, but I got this SUPER COOL NFT and decided to try writing a song for the first time ever. My daughter says it's not embarrassing, so... thanks @mikeshinoda and @SecretGarden_FM for making me feel like a rock star for a minute. #mysecretwindchime

Today, @fordnation introduced legislation to remove the rights of education workers to negotiate a fair deal. Here's the facts:
Education workers earn an average of 39K a year.
2/3 are women.
1/3 rely on food banks to survive.
1/2 have a second job.
They deserve better.
