I still need to get a photo of the giant flag.
Space for all 🏳️‍🌈 As part of our #PrideMonth celebration, we unveiled the Pride flag on Lab, a visual reminder that inclusivity is one of @NASAJPL's core values and that by fostering a diverse and equitable work environment, we can Dare Mighty Things Together.

I can’t believe I’m even writing this but just now I was trying to get my Christmas tree off the roof of the car. Clearly struggling. A voice calls out asking if I need help. I turn around. A HANDSOME, SHIRTLESS, TATTOOED stranger comes forward. (1/2)

Because I am sharing openly about my long covid experience, I have learned how many people have vulnerable families or their own conditions, and how they often feel utterly helpless and like there is no possibility of mitigating risk.

Just in case anyone should try to convince you Bengal cats aren't smart, mine has figured out how to turn on a lamp and both of my PlayStations. And he was batting experimentally at the PS4 controller. I'm tempted to load up Stray for him.

Rather than trying to read the minds of white, slave-owning men who have been dead for 2 centuries, maybe we should just do the right things for people who are alive today.

In any event, the kind of racism Tucker is throwing at KBJ happens to Black people *all the time* in the legal profession. We're constantly asked to *re*prove that we're "qualified" by white people who are never satisfied no way. And all of us develop different strats to deal...

I am currently working in a high school clinic. You would think that my biggest concern would be COVID right now, and you'd be right... but there is another problem that sits in the shadow of that menace, and it's just as destructive, but no one seems to be noticing... 1

Saturday morning we learned our set sustained damage caused by vandalism. But we are theater makers and we make miracles every night on stage. Our team made the repairs but we spent $5000 on equipment so the show could go on. We need your help: ow.ly/6Pxf50FRcx9
