Speaking at #TED2026 was the thrill of a lifetime. Utterly intense experience--the Olympics of public speaking. So glad to be invited, so relieved it went well. Deep thanks for all the coaching and support. Just wow.

Let's just revisit the truth of January 6th, shall we? This was not a peaceful political protest. This was a planned, coordinated, violent onslaught by Republican thugs. Capitol Police Officer Caroline Edwards testified afterward, "I was slipping in people's blood." (1/3)

At last, the finished manuscript of my novel! It’s about a deaf grad student in entomology who asks how to stop a rogue ant colony that is ravaging Earth. The answer is, “Ask it to stop.” He recruits 3 other grad students and they travel to a high-gravity planet to learn an alien language. (1/x)
