I got screwed by @Hertz rental today. The @Model3Tesla i rented from them wouldn't charge, even though i went to two superchargers including a @Tesla one. It took 45 min to get @Hertz road side assistance on the phone. Once I got them on the phone, they were great.

@Reagan_Airport , @Hertz there basically told me to go f*ck myself. I waited 3 hours, ignored, and when they got me a car, it was 2 yr Camry with 50k on the dash board. Basically, their unwanted car. I counted at least 8 @Model3Tesla, cleaned and sitting in the parking deck.

I live in DC and work in L. A. in tv. I rent a car through @Hertz for 7 months at time in L. A. I've done that for the last two tv seasons. It's a shame. This might be my last time renting with @Hertz .

"We don't drink colored water. Water is colorless, odorless and tasteless. Plus, the water in those fountains is not cold." The water in the Jim Crow fountains was almost always tepid, the message being that substandard access to water was all that Black people deserved to have. – at Oxford, MS
"It is almost as if Jackson is being told to drink from the 'colored' water fountain all over again, except this time drinking the water might make you deathly ill," writes @WRalphEubanks cnn.com/2022/08/31/opinions/…

We are proud to welcome Moses Ingram to the Star Wars family and excited for Reva’s story to unfold. If anyone intends to make her feel in any way unwelcome, we have only one thing to say: we resist.

William Gould (seated) liberated himself from slavery in North Carolina during the Civil War & chose to fight for the freedom of others as a member of the United States armed forces, as did all six of his sons (standing) in the 20th century.
