Remember, pepper spray is oil based. If you get sprayed DO NOT rub your eyes. Immediately blink as much as you can to wash out some of the oil with your own tears. Then, wash your eyes with baby shampoo or dilute dishwashing soap and rinse copiously. Water alone won't do much. Also, take out your contacts.

❤️It's inspiring to see the avalanche of love and support for @mychal3ts and libraries that this tweet ignited.
Don't mess with Mychal, y'all. His positivity and love for his library and community are forces to be reckoned with.

This is the story of 25-year-old Carlethia “Carlee” Nichole Russell who was recently abducted and is currently considered missing in Alabama. Please share and spread awareness.
Carlee stopped her car to help a stranded toddler on the side of the road when it's assumed she was abducted.
I will be adding to the thread with more info.

Whenever I despair over humanity, I remember that we also created libraries. Libraries are the heart of the community. There everyone should be able to find themselves in a book & know that their own stories matter, & that they are not alone in whatever they are going through.

Today, we remember those lost in the Italian Hall disaster. 73 people were trampled escaping a false cry of "fire" at a children's Christmas party.

Each year on December 24, the community honors their memory with a path of 73 luminaria leading to the hall's former entrance arch.

Solidarity is sticking together even though our needs aren’t all the same. Solidarity is fighting until EVERYONE has what they need

A new study found that a reduction in childhood poverty could cut criminal convictions by almost 25%. How many more studies will it take? How many more tweets? How many more election cycles will our politicians go pretending that poverty isn't the biggest predictor of crime?
