@clovismordechai @LeahWhelan_Cllr You should check the local residents pages. I live north of Boston and that’s what I did. People have been posting where they find the home tests! There are also a lot of free testing sites that don’t require an appt! I had to wait 4 hours but I was in my car so it wasn’t too bad
While I may be the first woman in this office, I will not be the last—because every little girl watching tonight sees that this is a country of possibilities.
I have seen a lot of "I don't know how to talk about this" and "what am I supposed to say..." language regarding #BlackLivesMatter
A friend of mine came up with some templates for you, so I thought I'd share them in case they're helpful for anyone.

@twintelepathy Highly recommend an alt account. You can easily switch between the two on the app. It’s cathartic and you don’t have to worry. I did it with tumblr in high school/college.
@Rileyxfriarr @SC0RSESE That’s a lame argument. The more voices that speak up the better. By not doing anything you are siding with the oppressor. Look at the link. It’s full of resources that can help you understand things and become a better ally.
@Rileyxfriarr @SC0RSESE Then learn about it. It’s YOUR responsibility to educate yourself, not anyone else’s. If you want to be ignorant that’s on you. But if you want to learn, here is a place to start https://t.co/o7RJlthcbN
I’m sad to say that my father, Jerry Stiller, passed away from natural causes. He was a great dad and grandfather, and the most dedicated husband to Anne for about 62 years. He will be greatly missed. Love you Dad.
@OddishOtter THIS. And the backlash he faced, is why people don’t ask these questions out in the open. Which is sad, because change only happens when we talk about it. Understanding other cultures only really happens when we talk about it. Being unafraid to speak up is important.
I feel sorry for Netflix era kids. They will never know the high stakes adrenaline of running to the bathroom/fridge/bedroom in a single ad break, with the beckoning call of a sibling screaming “It’s ONNNNNN” to send you hurdling over furniture to get back in time.
