She was racist/white-biased and her age affected her skills. It doesn’t detract from her impact. As a culture, why can’t we let β€œstars” or β€œheroes” be complicated?

Monday I had a short story idea and began writing it. This morning I submitted it for publication. I don’t think I’ve written anything so quickly before. #amwriting #speculativefiction #shortstory

Since a lot of the coverage is omitting this detail: The Kennedy Center HAD a $250 million renovation and expansion just a few years ago, in 2019.

β€œGet it all on record now β€” get the films β€” get the witnesses β€” because somewhere down the road of history some bastard will get up and say that this never happened.”

But they got their filthy lucre, so all good, right? (Pro tip: Fascists will inevitably come for them too, most of all.)

That tech oligarchs are noisy and incensed about the remote possibility of a wealth tax and utterly silent about the murder of a man who was only using the phone they invented to chronicle the thuggish government goon squads should tell you everything about these desiccated souls.

It’s been a long time since I heard
any Republican call out for states’ rights. Remember that old chestnut?

Walz: "What's happening in MN defies belief. News reports simply don't do justice to the level of chaos & disruption & trauma the federal govt is raining down... This long ago stopped being a matter of immigration enforcement. Instead, it's a campaign of organized brutality against the people of MN"

Peaceful protest is legal. ICE has no legal grounds to break up any sort of protest. Anyone pepper sprayed should sue for Assault and Battery.

I think of Scarlett O’Hara.

I see the screen image.
The quote plays in my head.

And then I think β€œboy that was a lot of racist romanticizing, that novel.” And then my head goes down a rabbit hole that takes me away from the day I’m having…

Workers in every other shutdown in my lifetime have gotten back pay. If
Republicans do this, they’ll alienate voters even further.

What strikes me is how often orgs keep doing the same thing without asking if it still serves them. Your exact context question cuts through autopilot and shows if we need emergence or improvement. Too often, teams repeat agile event or governance processes long after the value is gone. #bvssh
