@soulphoodie I'd take a bite but some things don't need to be served deconstructed.

@GeauxGabrielle They also had a huge contract dispute with their chili pepper supplier after they breached their contract. (Huy Fong got huge, had an exclusive contract, decided they didn't want to pay the rate 4 additional supply) Now the supplier makes their own sauce.

@PolitiKellyRite @vadergrrrl @tigerrblossom @Columbia Due to her privilege she won't be arrested and she certainly won't be slapped. If she was that would be very dangerous to whoever did that. Not a fan of doxxing but the reason it's on the table is because she's insulated from consequences through other channels.

Kamala Harris picked the most progressive VP choice of her finalists — the one who will compliment any priorities on childcare and child poverty, the one labor leaders preferred, and who said the Uncommited movement should be heard. This is an unambiguously optimistic signal.

Our household tested positive this week. A colleague of mine got it over the weekend. COVID rates are increasing, stay safe out there!

President Biden just tested positive for COVID.

Not sure if the current Supra or Miata platform would be better.

When I review organizations' policies I often find language that restricts internships to college students and there's rarely a good reason for it. It's a very easy change to make to put "valuing lived experience" into action.

@doc_thoughts And as a result you have to anticipate that your work will be undermined. You have to anticipate that it may be coopted. And then apply that understanding to determine who you work with and who you don't. And where you draw your lines. Not enough DEI practitioners take that step.

[Darin J. Dorsey @darinat0r]

@doc_thoughts I appreciate the qualifier of 'efforts'. I agree 100%, DEI has been weaponized and has done more upholding than interrupting.

But I hesitate to critique DEI in itself. I think it can be done well, but to do it well you must be okay with being a threat to the institution.

@Coleen4SD I assumed you voted for Hilary, but the original post was about "middle aged white women". You appear to be a part of that group and I think it would make more sense to say "some of us" voted for Trump instead of "they".

I appreciate PreventConnect for highlighting the podcast series on anti-Blackness that I hosted with NSVRC in 2021.

Given how often it is utilized I know it will be a key resource for decades to come.

This is a smart way from a smart mayor to reframe the question. If democracy is indeed at stake in November - and I believe it is - why are only voters of color being blamed for risking its future, and not the president of the United States?

Wow! Elmo is glad he asked! Elmo learned that it is important to ask a friend how they are doing. Elmo will check in again soon, friends! Elmo loves you.❤️ #EmotionalWellBeing
