It seems like some people forgot last summer. We saw police murder George Floyd. Then we saw them attack every protest trying to hold them accountable. Not one, not two, but hundreds of police departments beat and gassed thousands of protesters. We know police are beyond reform.
Once people get vaccinated and we start mingling again, don't ask me "how are you?" or "what's new?"
We're only doing deep and weird conversation starters from now on.
"Hi! You look great! Drinks are on the patio. What's holding you back from being the person you want to be?"
