Thank you Twitter. You brought my work to the world & the world’s work to me. We learned, we laughed, we shared, we had empathy.
But X is not Twitter.
So I am taking a (permanent?) break from X.

“Grief never ends … But it changes. It’s a passage, not a place to stay. Grief is not a sign of weakness, nor a lack of faith. It is the price of love."

While we wait, we DO have a “behavioural vaccine” & it is effective if we ALL use it.
