@Banfield Refused to give care to our dog in deep distress while he lay on the floor in front of their desk. He died ten minutes later in the entryway of another nearby vet office. Avoid #Banfield and #Petsmart if you love your pets.

Black people shouldn’t have die for folks to recognize injustice. Black people should’t have to die for there to be change. Black people shouldn’t have to die for accountability. Black people shouldn’t have to die for justice. Black people shouldn’t have to die.

A reminder that victory would be George Floyd being alive. Every day Black Americans worry if they will be next is another day without justice.

[Nicole Austin-Hillery @NicoleAustinHil]

Let us not forget: today’s verdict required an indisputable video showing horrific torture and the death of a Black body to bring about justice. As did the photos of Emmet Till’s brutalized body. These cannot be the sacrificial requirements for ensuring justice is achieved.

@wagatwe You mean you don’t let your milk get to almost boiling on the stove before you add your tea leaves and chai masala?

She really is as amazing. If we had listened to her policy recommendations back then America would be in a better place today.

So true. Where I went to school, Special Education majors had two semesters of full time internships. Paid a year’s tuition (Aug-May) and was working full time. People who talk about denying student loan forgiveness to teachers can go suck an egg.

[Astead @AsteadWH]

ive come to learn the ppl who think being broke for an unpaid internship was some fun or some necessary experience usually weren't broke. being broke is not fun. the people saying this were often playing poverty w/ in-the-wings family money -- it was all heroes journey, no stakes

1. What existed of our Universe before the Big Bang?

2. Do we live in a computer Simulation programmed by Aliens for their own amusement?

3. If dogs detect subtle smells from far away, what compels them to sniff each other’s butt at a fraction of an inch?

@jessedhamilton @CharlenDoe @ColMorrisDavis @RepCawthorn @CawthornforNC The word you’re looking for is “lied”, not “misled”. Let’s call a spade a spade.

@washingtonpost Why isn’t it in the shape of a golden calf with his head? That would be more appropriate.
