. @nycspeakeradams, as Speaker of the City Council you have the power to stop the abuse of carriage horses and finally #banhorsecarriages. How many more horses have to suffer before you step up to protect these innocent animals from cruelty?
We put together a list of nice gifts under $50 you can buy from Asian and Asian American–owned brands and small businesses for all sorts of people and occasions nym.ag/3NvSSbu

@trisherrr Thank you for sharing this. I’ve shared similar experiences while raising my first round. And, the rudest VC I spoke to actually was another woman of color… I was shocked. I thought she’d be more welcoming and warm 🤷🏻♀️
After being in the startup scene for ~4 years, I wanted to share my personal observations/experiences on why I think the number of female founders getting funded is so low. (It’s still 2% - it didn’t change!)
Again, this is based off of what I’ve seen and what has happened to us
@MelioPayments Thank you for supporting small biz! Our 3PL uses Melio to charge our monthly invoice. With the rise of shipping costs plus increase of holiday orders, this can be a big help for our small but mighty purpose-driven business!
