Imagine if Shake Shack actually did poison those milkshakes. And then the government was like, “please don’t do that.” And then they did it again and killed 1000 ppl every year for roughly 50 years. And then when ppl got upset and were like, maybe we should abolish Shake Shack

Who resparked the master branch convo right now? It's upsetting me and my homegirls. We are literally fighting to save lives and y'all are fighting to save a software term. We're in a war against racsim. Keep your ridiculous term (for now) and pick a bigger battle.

I want to make a site called Amazoff where you type in anything you would normally buy off Amazon but instead it serves up independent local businesses in your area that sell the same or similar products.

I receive thousands of threatening abusive messages from men. One said he was going to cut my genitals up & rape me with a metal bar til I died. No men were banned. Today my cousin was banned for saying ‘men are dogs’ and I was banned last year for calling a man a ‘coward’.

Remember when Diane Abbott cracked open a cheeky mojito on the tube and she was forced to publicly apologise and pray for mercy? Compare the establishment's response to that and its response to what Cummings has done and go look up white privilege. We hate to see it.
