Maybe "Move fast and break things" isn't a sustainable ethos. Maybe you're just an incompetent asshole and making excuses for your fuck ups. Maybe "slow down and make sure shit doesn't break" works better.

i think it is important to say that the open and explicit racism of the president and the vice president isn’t just uncouth or “controversial” but a direct attack on tens of millions of americans and a dereliction of their duty to represent the entire country

Just donated to Trans Lifeline to help our friends and family being persecuted by this new regime. IF you have some $ to spare, please consider doing likewise? Even a few bucks helps. But if not, some real LOUD support from the cis community would also be great. ❤️ link: translifeline.org/donate/
