Badass female founder alert 🚨: @carabucciferro of @NewHive is launching a new company that combines AR and art! @LegalGraffitiAR is raising a pre-seed round on the SEC-backed platform @startengine. Anyone can safely invest: https://t.co/XeYB6Nbwo5
“Here’s the acid truth: Harassment and violence are occupational hazards for journalists, particularly those who are female.” https://t.co/3VdI3YcwGO @VICE
Sad to see this happen for a SEVENTH time, in an even more gruesome manner. If you’re looking for technology to facilitate publishing as a business, @Medium is NOT the platisher you’re looking for.

About once a year, I go through a struggle with @Medium in which I have to wrestle @LadyBits content & attribution back from other collections that have stolen and repurposed our articles. And every year they tell me it was caused by "a technical glitch."
