🍅 Food for thought
Building an audience: look how clever I am.
Building a community: look how clever all these people are.
I choose community, every damn day.
Please remember everyone is assigned a certain role and all are valid. Some are on the frontline, others are holding space and there are even those who are transmuting the energy. Some are spreading the information and providing the facts. All are very important roles.
Other countries have managed to create police forces that keep crime low without having to resort to force so frequently. The UK and Japan are good examples of this. So why does the US seem unable to do so?

I just built a site to help you make a friend in 2 minutes! My goal is to help people stuck indoors because of COVID-19 (or police curfews) to make meaningful connections with strangers. Hope you love it!

I personally think it's really cool how we all went from learning how to make banana bread to learning how to abolish the police in a matter of weeks
