This is my daughter. She just turned 9. Here is why I would never allow her to play middle or high school sports if we lived in Ohio…

I love this generation of college basketball players because the fearlessness they have to speak up about injustices is something I didn’t have in college. The “grateful & happy to be here” women’s athlete is a thing of the past. I’m celebrating that fact today! Proud of y’all!

Hey white people: do you know what digital blackface is? It’s when you post reaction gifs/pics of Black people even though you’re white. Stop doing it. It’s a bad look.

@being_ulti @MariRodriguez86 We got them if y’all want them! DM us for info!

@MariRodriguez86 Not sure if @UpwindInstitute is still selling them, but that's where it's from! My favorite hat, hands down

Shot even at Schenley today, Br*die could never 😤

If you read white fragility between May of 2020 and now, you have to donate at least $10

Hey @Google! Can we do something about the top question that pops-up when we search the @WNBA? The question leads to a hateful & inaccurate post on reddit that bashes the #WNBA & helps perpetuate the sexist & wrong idea that the WNBA is an inferior product to the @NBA.

It's my birthday y'all! What I'd like is world peace, but I'll settle for your greenbacks:) If you give me your extra dimes, I'll rub them together in order to help write a history no one has to be ashamed of:)

I’m usually not scared to share news publicly but the amount of hate, myths & ignorance actually had me debating sharing this joy. I had Top Surgery! I’m feeling free & euphoric in my body & want Trans people to know and see that we’ve always existed & no one can erase us! 🏳️‍⚧️✊🏽❤️

We are proud to introduce a new design line, Respect My Pronouns. In collaboration with @kgibbs18, we've been reflecting on the importance of using a person's correct pronouns to show your respect for their identity. Join us in spreading this message. bit.ly/36mjLuK

I'm gonna need the sports teams and leagues to do less quoting of MLK and more of hiring Black women.

Good Afternoon - Overtip the person who is delivering your food during a pandemic.

Yo! Just in case it isn't clear: when people say "COVID-19 is disproportionately killing communities of color", they do NOT mean that Black + brown people are biologically more at risk/more sensitive to the virus.

remember when everyone was like PATCHES (and shirts and hats) now they’re really real 🥺 thanks to @vcultimate! ca.vcultimate.com/collections/co…

Real talk. Everyone is being so positive today about getting the @PremierUltimate over the 60,000 donation mark. And while I appreciate the positivity and good vibes, I’m here to badger some of you into opening your wallets. I’ve read and heard
