The tear gas wasn’t tear gas. The photo op wasn’t a photo op. The protests weren’t peaceful. The death toll is exaggerated. The virus isn’t that bad. The economy doesn’t need any more help.

All they have left is telling us not to believe what we’re seeing with our own eyes.

I think “a few bad apples” spoiled the bunch, because I don’t see how anyone could ever trust the police again. I know I can’t.

Seattle lifted their curfew, cops haven’t tear gassed or shot at anyone, and protests are still completely peaceful at midnight. Wow it’s almost like if the police don’t attack, protests don’t magically turn into riots when the sun goes down

I worked with people with mental illness and violent offenders as a therapist for years. I was trained in de-escalation and in the proper way to physically restrain clients who were endangering themselves or others. I carried no weapons. And I was just a fucking therapist.

Got one of those "camlink" USB converters because I was curious about em, and WHOAH I was shocked. UVC output, 20ms delay and signal looks to be properly grabbing 1080P@30. Single chip solution under a small sink and costs under $20. What in the heck is this.

Understand that the call to abolish police is also a call to allocate adequate funds and resources to mental health services, livable wages, food security and all other societal factors which facilitate the ‘crimes’ you believe we need police protection from.

Okay, I've seen a number of people on social media share this #8cantwait campaign. I wanted to put my thoughts (and those of others) together to explain why this campaign is a bad idea.

I want to first start by addressing each of the 8 policies.

#BlackLivesMatter is defending a 75 year old white guy while the "ALL LIVES MATTER" crowd are defending the cops who shoved him down and concussed him. In case you were wondering who actually believes all lives matter and who just wants to defend police brutality.

This morning, while explaining to my 7yo that his grandmother *also* had to go out and protest for equality when she was a kid, and also face police brutality, he said "Well, maybe this time will be the LAST time."

... and now all the adults in my house are crying.

These aren’t protesters. These aren’t guerilla artists. This is THE CITY OF DC doing this. A public works department is using actual roadway paint for this. This isn’t going away any time soon, and that’s the way it should be.

I care deeply about Black lives and being actively anti-racist, I'm learning & listening. What I say impacts many people, so I use my voice to advocate for @okta employees and actively support equal rights and fundamental civil liberties. If one of us is not free, none of us are.

Some people are using their platform to spread awareness.

Some are using it to express their pain or confusion.

Others are using it to listen and learn.

Others are using it to provide a break from the horror...

And guess what, we NEED all of it right now.

We NEED your best.

An important note: because the mural was finished after today's window for satellite imagery collection, what you see right now is an approximation. The next collection window is tomorrow, and, clouds permitting, we'll be collecting & updating then.

I was gonna say, this looks photoshopped. Cool idea for pushing out imagery updates so fast tho!

I was annoyed that Mint Mobile doesn't give me logs on my data usage history so I hacked together a script that logs in and fetches my usage data from their site. It's just two API calls that return JSON so it was super easy. The login call returns a token, and there's another call that returns the used and remaining data in megabytes. I don't know why I didn't set this up years ago!

As a white person there is nothing to lose by assuming you are a racist and striving to be better. I have racist instincts and I fight against them all the time. Let's all reognize our sickness and try to get well.

1. Police decided to violently quell protests to loudly proclaim they won’t change.
2. The strategy backfired because we now have 100’s of videos of cops using excessive force. Ppl who didn’t think police brutality was an issue last week now believe police reform to be essential.
