Encouragement is one of the greatest forms of support. It can be shown in different ways, even as simple as seeing “You can do it” written on the back of a teacher’s clipboard. This is a reminder to be a positive force in this world: encourage others and encourage yourself☺️

While 40 million Americans are unemployed, America’s billionaires have made more than a *half a trillion* dollars during the pandemic. The American economy is rigged in favor of the wealthy and corporations at the expense of the American people.

Ugh, @github is working with ice and the letter from @natfriedman amounts to, “but but but we protest and donate to charity so surely it’s ok if we have a *tiny* $200k contract with ICE.” Githubbers, it’s your turn to say fuck-no. We’ve got your backs.
