I submitted an appeal.

I do apologize for my tone in that post, but I stand by what I said about needing more evidence before jumping to conclusions. Currently waiting to see if my appeal gets denied or approved. I'll keep you posted 😄

@[email protected] you're making a statement with the evidence you provided just based on two articles fro the same author. One author doesn't reflect the company as a whole. Plus, saying that people are converted to "all-out fascists" by the NY Times is a pretty bold statement (especially to make without much evidence provided). Do you have any more evidence to back up your claim?

I see you're trying to finish your novel. Would you like help with that?

If you need me, I’ll be chucking at the “Google is in trouble because Microsoft beat them to malarkey by a few weeks” takes from last week 😋

In honor of #BlackHistoryMonth, here’s a great article about #SojournorTruth’s famous #AintIAWoman speech. The version many of us read in school was actually written by a white woman nearly *twelve years* after Truth’s speech. Frances Dana Gage took Truth’s words and rewrote them in a clunky Black slave dialect that undermined the perception of Sojournor’s intellect and played into the folksy (and deeply racist) Mammy trope.
