We need to be loud with our support, militant with our empathy,
extreme with our love & kindness.

Stand against the lies, the fascism, and the hate.

@coreh @SlackHQ You're right, super crafty! Wish it was more built in than hack but I'll take it as it does exactly what I want. I.e. create a mention for user (visible in mentions) w/o a ping. Wouldn't expect any less from you @coreh 😊 Thanks!

[Frak Lopez ☕ @dev_vine]

Making my annual request to @SlackHQ to add a soft mention. Would love to be able to do something like ~SlackHQ which only goes to mentions but does not ping. Great for ensuring offline/heads-down members are not disturbed but still get the low priority message.

[Frak Lopez ☕ @dev_vine]

@SlackHQ Another way of resolving this is giving the ability to control notifications between mentions and keywords. That is, maybe I can turn off pings for the keyword dev_vine. Such that people can "soft" mention me.

[Frak Lopez ☕ @dev_vine]

@SlackHQ Ah, yeah, totally get that. IME I've found that there needs to be a lower priority way to alert people of information. This would be a means to put things on your radar without giving a false sense of priority. An FYI type message.

Also, bulk emoji import/transfer. Going to a new channel/team would be great to be able to quickly and efficiently get geared up emoji wise. 🙂

I know this first hand. My nana thought drumpf was a good thing. All she knew was she got a relief check with his name on it.

She's hispanic & doesn't watch Fox news or anything. Mom & i had to point out that help came IN SPITE of drumpf, not bc of him.

Work to help & inform the ignorant. The many who were mislead & lied to. Many who didn't know better. They're not our enemies.

However, there are plenty who cheered hate. Who relished hate & used it.

Do not compromise to hate. Do not work with hate. Do not allow hate.

@davidlymanning Wsl2 unless you want to do cross system work. Wsl is more performant when crossing the boundary. Wsl2 is more performant in every other aspect

[Frak Lopez ☕ @dev_vine]

For my sanity, i took time away from the vitriol. Today is too joyous tho. A huge relief. Enjoy this moment.

Yet, don't forget the lessons from these past 4 years. We MJST fight early & quickly. Disease & hate are always in the wings waiting for us to let our guard down.

Do the "all lives matter" folks look at check engine light and think, all parts matter!
Black lives matter is a call to fix a serious issue in our system. America's check engine light is flashing! #BlackLivesMatter

[Frak Lopez ☕ @dev_vine]

Recently sent out an email in support of #BlackLivesMatter

Sometimes, leaders have to care more for their people than their people care for themselves.

[Frak Lopez ☕ @dev_vine]

@stevenwadejr @pablostanley No worries! Been a while since we chatted. Let's fix that!

[Frak Lopez ☕ @dev_vine]

Just had "carne" asada tacos & a torta from Taqueria Vegiee SD. Really great food, #vegan or otherwise. Thanks for the hot tip @pablostanley!

[Frak Lopez ☕ @dev_vine]

Still think @SlackHQ should add a soft mention (~). Pinged them years ago w/ this, hoping they reconsider.
Idea: ~someone messages w/o disruption. Would be great to create msgs to ppl with low urgency. Combined with channel of your soft mentions would be 👌.
