@NickKristof @tapogna Devastating. Downtown office workers aren't coming back. We need to get creative and strategic about things that will make Oregonians want to live and work downtown again. Beautiful CLEAN parks and gardens? Indoor skiing/rock climbing/golfing? More ideas please.

Parents, students and teachers: we are living in dangerous, dangerous times. This is beyond troubling, beyond disturbing. To the 4th grade teacher in Southlake: I am so incredibly sorry!

Update from Southlake. Last night the school board voted 3-2 to reprimand a 4th grade teacher for having a copy of "This Book Is Anti-Racist" by Tiffany Jewell in her class. After a student brought it home, her parents complained that it violated their "morals and faith." Video:

@moucheparkrose I've never understood why we spend a bunch of money telling kids they are bad at school (without offering solutions to get better at school) and then wonder why those kids disengage in high school.
