Columbus, Ohio police fatally shot someone as the George Floyd verdict came down. Eyewitnesses say it was a 15-year-old Black girl thedailybeast.com/columbus-p…
People are showing up to the scene and saying to @ColumbusPolice officers “On the day of the George Floyd verdict.”

Devastated by the murder of 8 people in Atlanta, including 6 Asian-American women.
There have been 3,800 anti-Asian incidents in the last year, almost all against women.
We must remember that an attack on one community is an attack on all of us. #StopAsianHate

I can’t believe I grew up thinking using God’s name in vain was saying “oh my God” and not using God to manipulate people and advance your own personal agenda....

In 1910, Black Americans owned ~16M acres of land. But the majority of early Black landowners did not have wills, which has allowed predatory developers to grab land out from under their heirs.
As a result, Black communities have lost ~90% of their land & generations of wealth.
One of our members tells their story on land loss in LA. @MichelleCarthen

1/ In light of the voting question that will never die -- "if I can do X online, why can't I vote online" -- I'm reminded that most people don't have a good intuition for what makes things secure. So let's explore.
Security online depends predominantly on logging and auditing.

Because it apparently still needs said: Denying trans people their basic human rights is immoral. It’s bad. If you do it, you are a bad person who no one will think to mourn when you die. Trans people are people, for fuck’s sake. Vote for people that don’t fuck that up. Fuck.

Here's the sad reality: what happened to George Floyd, Ahmaud Arbery & Christian Cooper has gone on for generations to Black Americans. Cell phones just made it more visible.
Dismantling systemic racism in our nation starts with demanding justice & holding offenders accountable.

I know that many fathers already knew that being the primary parent means being interrupted all the time, but I'm sure some men are discovering this right now. Here's a thread about early television, motherhood, and interruption: (1/n)

I went to my local Costco today and replaced the signs for sold out items like toilet paper and bottled water with signs for magical items like: health potions, dowsing rods, tarot decks, summoning orbs, soul gems, healing crystals, and invisibility amulets.
