LFG!! @Gripnr @The_Glimmering

This thread is not some early victory lap. It's a moment of pause and reflection.

Ya see, tomorrow we're doing something rarely, if ever, done if Web3 - launching a collection and the game platform on the same day.

[Volunteer Louisiana @volunteer_la]

This #BlackHistoryMonth, we asked our @AmeriCorps members to share with us the leaders that inspire them!

I’m not a #DnD #dungeonsanddragons player (yet), but if you are and you care about its future, this thread by @brentalicious is really important…

[brent mccrossen @brentalicious]

Let me tell you a story about fighting dragons and how #WotC and @Wizards_DnD don't understand NFTs, or perhaps they do, and wish to keep them all to themselves.

Time to go on an adventure 🧵

[Mary Bliss McCrossen @BlissFactor]

@brentalicious Absolutely. The challenge lies in committing fully to your community while also setting the boundaries you need to maintain balance. If the community is the right community for you, they should support balance and boundaries.

[Mary Bliss McCrossen @BlissFactor]

We’ll said, my love. ❤️

[brent mccrossen @brentalicious]

Life’s too short for shallow commitments. Spend time where joy blooms and with people who work together to water the communal garden. 🌱❤️

[Congressman Troy A. Carter @RepTroyCarter]

Happy #TeacherAppreciationWeek!

Being a teacher can be both extremely fulfilling and very challenging, so I wanted recognize and appreciate the important work teachers do for our students.

Let's celebrate several inspiring teachers in #LA02. 1/4

[brent mccrossen @brentalicious]

Some of our people are under it big time. Sending love and prayers of safety to all of them. Don’t get tornadoes in the city much. The dense nature of our neighborhoods makes it extra concerning. Be safe y’all. Care for each other.

[Mary Bliss McCrossen @BlissFactor]

Gonna be a great conversation, GNO! Join us!

[Mary Bliss McCrossen @BlissFactor]

This is not “winning.” Our teachers work harder than almost any other profession and are a VITAL part of our community AND economy. They are literally preparing our future leaders and this is how we repay them?

[Mary Bliss McCrossen @BlissFactor]

Come work with me and the team at TFA GNO!

[Mary Bliss McCrossen @BlissFactor]

@sevetriwilson It would be so amazing to see her run my home state! She’s incredible.

[Mary Bliss McCrossen @BlissFactor]

@msolurin My college roommate had THE LARGEST cat I’ve ever seen. He knew I was a light sleeper and would hurl himself against my bedroom door at 6am every morning until I got up and fed him. He was a total jerk and my roommate let him do it so he wouldn’t wake her up.

[Mary Bliss McCrossen @BlissFactor]

@MHechtGNO @jdicolo Don’t forget about the work happening in local high schools like @rootedschool ! If we want to make the tech industry thrive in New Orleans, we’ve got to invest in our students as future leaders in the work.

[Mary Bliss McCrossen @BlissFactor]

Great job, Patrick and the @lucid_hq team! Way to make New Orleans proud. ⚜️❤️👏🏻
