@eliwilsonpelton I knew a woman at work who said "you go girl" so often back when that was trendy, that she'd accidentally say it to men all the time.

@HolliLoki @Rachel_Sennott Could be because we don't know when this picture was taken? Could be she's vaccinated and it was taken when the indoor mask mandate was lifted? Could be all sorts of non-sinister reasons. Since we don't know, I guess we gotta take our torches and pitchforks elsewhere for now.

@Alyssa_Milano Had a very loved cat disappear for 8 days once. Searched everywhere. Gave him up for dead. Suddenly he was walking up the path like he was casually ordering ham and eggs. He was like, "what?" 30 years ago and I still find myself wondering WTF he was doing for 8 days.

@RoseGoldLola I may have this wrong, but I feel like I saw a documentary where the founder of the LA Crips said his primary motivation for starting his own club was because the Boy Scouts wouldn't let a black kid join. If that's true, it really illustrates the ripple effect of discrimination.

@TheDailyShow It's a normal human trait to feel more empathy for other humans who "look like" us. President Obama said it best when talking about Trayvon Martin. He said he was especially moved because, "If I had a son, he would look like Trayvon." It just doesn't get any clearer than that.
