"My journey started on a boat. I ended up in a refugee camp ... They say stories like this only happen in the movies. I cannot believe this is happening to me. This is the American dream!" - Ke Huy Quan #Oscars

Clear spike in anti-trans rhetoric and protests sets stage for violence like Colorado Springs shootings, experts say https://t.co/ejAToRGrfK

I requested my Twitter archive. If it doesn't happen, I'll just find all the #TwilidiotTwilightTrivia that might have slipped through IFTTT.

Because I ain't staying here with TFG.

See you on Mastadon and Substack.

As someone who experienced actual fascist policies in America and was sent to an internment camp solely because of my race, it is laughable to hear others cry fascism over common sense vaccine requirements.

I know fascism. I suffered under fascism. This isn’t fascism.

"It's where history meets your wallet."

ALL Americans paid taxes, and then the federal backed mortgages redistributed the wealth to white homeowners.

ALL Americans paid taxes, but some homeowners didn't have sewers.

We are talking cold hard stolen cash.

Big announcement about #TMTweetChat!

We will now be monthly on the third Wednesday of the month, still 3pm ET.

There are some important reasons why so please have a listen.

Our conversations can't be ephemeral, and I can't keep up the weekly pace.

[Gretchen Vaughn, DTM 🎙️ #TMTweetChat @TMTweetChat]

How do we make virtual conferences worth more than a webinar?

How do we connect with each other when we haven't invested the time and money to be in the same room together?

Important questions from @CTrappe.
