7 years in the making. I knew I had a story to tell. It’s incredibly personal for me, things I never thought I’d say out loud. But, I needed to put all the pieces in front of me so I could see what picture they made. Maybe others will recognize some of the pieces in themselves.
I admire
@ewarren
with every fiber of my body. I will support her where ever she is, what ever she does. She is a fearless, tireless, brilliant warrior. Where she goes, I follow. Thank you!!!
Out of the blue, a hero steps up and I’m in awe. I know the pain of these kinds of memories, Dr. Ford. Memories that are indelibly imprinted on your brain no matter how many years go by. I, like millions of women across America, are behind you and thank you profoundly.
We as women CANNOT allow women to take the blame for the misdeeds of these repugnant men. There were whole systems in place to keep Meryl and others from ever knowing about HW. That was his way of operating. To claim otherwise is ignorant and counter productive.
I’ve been a fan of Serena’s for nearly 20 years, she is as brilliant an athlete as there has ever been - but to watch the honesty, strength and vulnerability she’s displayed as a working mother has been jaw-dropping. My constant respect from one working mother to another.
I thought Michelle was honest and brilliantly funny, but what is the point of this dinner, anyway? The ship sailed on decency and a congenial relationship with the press when that man was elected. End the dinner and lets all focus on the work to be done.
My memoir “In Pieces” hits stores on 9.18 and I’m hitting the road on a massive book tour. Hope to see some of you along the way - hope I can cram everything into one allowable carry-on.

Early voting (in-person if you can!) is the best way to make your voice heard and to vote out this toxic, fascist administration and save our democracy.

I hate that Mary Oliver is no longer living with us on this planet. But maybe she is; in her words, her staggeringly alive words. Thank you Mary. Rest.

You’re amazing
@Adaripp
. Your Olympics won’t be about Mike Pence. They will be about your excellence and your grace. And all the young boys and girls you’re inspiring.
I personally have nothing to say to Mike Pence. Given the chance to talk after the Olympics, I would want to bring with me people who’s lives have been hurt by legislation he has championed.
This is outrageous: Mark Wahlberg was paid $1.5 million for reshooting his scenes in All the Money in the World, while Michelle Williams was paid an $80 per diem totaling less than $1,000.
What a delight it was to see
@threetallwomen
, beautifully directed by my friend Joe Mantello. Alison is brilliant. Laurie is a force of nature, as she always is.
Change starts at the local level. We have to elect representation in the state houses who support the rights of everyone! Proud to stand with

tonight in St. Louis - he’s running for State Senate in MO-16. He would be the only LGBTQ member of the statehouse!
Had a blast w/ the adorable and supremely talented

In Pieces has been nominated for Audie awards in 2 categories which makes me both thrilled & devastated: thrilled to be recognized—proud of my whole Hachette/Grand Central team. Devastated that on Mar. 4th I’ll be in London rehearsing a play. I can’t be there but my heart will be
Anyone who ever had the privilege of seeing him play, of watching him grow up into the man and father that he was, everyone that lives in LA...we are all devastated. My heart is with his family. 💛💜
An honor to be with the fabulous and truly pioneering

The Trump Administration failed to meet the court order to reunify all the families separated at the border by July 26. Watch this short video with

@Common
, parents and children at the border, and humanitarian workers -- then take action!
So honored to be with my dear friend Benton today to celebrate his films. They threw away the mold after him. He is brilliant and unique, gentle and generous. I’m so lucky to have worked with him.
If you live in AZ, AR, FL, GA, IN, KY, LA, MI, MS, NM, OH, PA, TN or TX (go Beto!), today is your last day to register. Make sure your kids and your grandkids or hell, your great grandkids are registered too.

Late on this but, for 2 nights I cried & laughed with strangers who then became friends, a family. We will never see each other again but for 8 hours we felt openly human together.

Go. Now. I’m thinking of you, seat mates. Thank you Tony. And bravo! You’re a master.

So thrilling to talk with Elizabeth Strout at the signing at Barnes & Noble Union Square last night! I was beside myself. Now on to DC. Tomorrow night at Historic Synagogue sponsored by Politics and Prose bookstore...unfortunately without Liz.
I'm devastated and worried about everyone. I'm in Pacific Palisades, safe but crushed about Point Dume and Malibu... all that fire has wiped off the map.
I’m no political pundit but I grew up w a dad who was a federal prosecutor & he taught me a lot & I’ve also sat a fair amount of poker w serious players & l’ll say this: I do not think Trump is trying to ‘make his base happy’ or ‘laying the groundwork for his own network’...
