My mum (bless her!) used to say, "I'm not racist, but I don't want a black family to move in next door; it'll bring down the property values."

That's not very different from all the people who say "I'd vote for Kamala Harris, but there's too much racism for her to get elected."

People "outsource" their racism to others.

If you're not actively supporting people from ethnic minorities, rather than creating problems for them, you make yourself part of a racist system.

You can make an ellipse or hyperbola by drawing two sets of concentric circles and joining the points of intersection. Why?

Ellipse: the sum of the distances to the two focal points is a constant.

Hyperbola: the difference of the distances to the two focal points is a constant.

WHAT is UP guys, Gregor here, welcome back to the channel: HUGE vlog today about how I woke from troubled dreams, and found myself transformed in my bed into a horrible vermin, but first let me tell you about today’s sponsor, NordVPN,

no no, not a teams meeting, it's a meet meeting. on google meet. it might be called duo for you? i sent you a hangouts to the drive link on messages. no no not your gmail inbox, it's under "all mail", not every email goes to the inbox, haha. or if you're using the classic mode it might be under meetups or promotions. yeah where the chats used to be, before they made google voice an RCS thing. have you got it from google play? no not the green one, the new one with the multicoloured icon. you can only use the green one with legacy members. ok so the problem is you're on workspace for business, it's under google one basic now. did you try quick sharing it? no see you can't use it on a tablet, only a phone or laptop, unless you want the plus features, that only works on phones of course. honestly the easiest way from here is through the docs plugin, unless you wanna family share if you can do vowifi

I believe I have gotten FIVE spam texts today that look like genuine Harris fundraising appeals, but are fake.

Lest it need be said… don’t donate to a blind text message, kids! Go to Act Blue secure.actblue.com and donate there.

I knocked over a plant in the kitchen, but my cat saw me, so I had to spray myself with water to show that the law applies to everyone.

In our first couple of hours of a dedicated #Mastodon portal fundraising for Kamala Harris, we've raised $4472.24 toward the current goal of $5000....

I don’t think it’s appropriate to call the first Black woman presidential nominee by her first name. If you say Biden and Trump, you should say Harris.

@StillIRise1963 Agreed. Hillary was something of a special case because of the occasional need to distinguish her from Bill, but there's no such issue here.
