Is this a sign that racial inequities have become inextricably entrenched in our systems? Probably. But as long as funding is going where it should be, I'm going with it.
Amid the devastation of the recent shooting, it is inspiring to see Asian Americans – and others – coming together to support one another and the people of #MontereyPark. If you want help, or need help, keep reading to learn how. 🧵

I also installed monitors in our home and ran my own tests.
Here's what I learned.

Climate conversations are hard, but very necessary. The climate crisis doesn't give us the luxury of sweeping things under the rug or spiraling into despair. Let's acknowledge our fears and anxieties, and let's find ways to keep moving forward.
Whenever I read about net metering, my brain involuntarily goes to Vietnamese cured pork.
At some point during the pandemic, employers forgot to cover “building alarm code” during new employee orientation. The ramifications have been terrifying and mortifying.

Many states don’t allow mail-in ballots to be counted before Election Day.
But many races can’t be called until mail-ins are counted, which can take over 24h.
This is normal, but some GOP are laying ground to claim any race not called tonight is suspicious. Don’t fall for it.

There’s so much talk about planting trees. And to be clear, we do need to plant trees. But let’s also do more to keep trees alive and healthy long after they’ve been planted.
