Most of the time I cringe at "badass" because it's so often just used to mean "a woman who has a job." But Linda, who casually lost an eye while protesting and did not even skip a beat, is the kind of person the word was made for. 💪
So there’s like eight of us that lost an eye during these protests and we’re starting to find and talk to each other and it is *hilarious* Three of us are going camping to clear our heads a bit and just process together and god bless the internet that makes that possible

When all 57 Buffalo police officers on the emergency response team resign because two were suspended for knocking down a 75-year-old man and sending him to the hospital, this seems like an opportunity to find 57 new police officers who don't approve of assaulting senior citizens.

Breonna Taylor was essential. A 26yo EMT, working on the frontlines. On March 13, Louisville Metro Police barged into her home after midnight, unleashed 20 rounds, and shot Breonna 8 times. No one has been fired or charged. #JusticeforBreonnaTaylor washingtonpost.com/opinions/…

The president is 73. His opponent is 77. The Speaker of the House is 80. The Senate Majority Leader is 78. The average age of the House is 58, in the Senate it is 62--one of the oldest Congresses in U.S. History. Stop thinking this isn't part of the problem.

Boy you’d think a country that can equip every cop like a soldier could equip every doctor like a doctor

So this happened today. In line at DJs Polish Market in Dot. & let the construction worker on lunch break go ahead of me as capacity strictly enforced. Said wasn't in a hurry. Go to pay for groceries & the man had put $20.00 toward my bill. Was dumbfounded.

The fact that it's 2012 STILL hasn't sunk in. I just can't stop writing 1876.

VCs are like gamblers. Love to talk about their winnings. Somehow you never hear a peep about the losses.
