I've ventured out to a few stores and most shoppers were uncovered, even though COVID is actively spreading in the community. At some, including the local Home Depot, even the workers were barefaced. — PolitiTweet.org

Being in the semi-rural midwest after months of urban pandemic lockdown is super anxiety-inducing. Masks? What masks! — PolitiTweet.org

Reminder that this tech has potentially heinous civil liberties implications because it is less accurate in IDing people with darker complexions, and Amazon was pitching it to ICE https://t.co/MGqdwd5ODu — PolitiTweet.org

@RachelBLevinson Made a drugstore impulse purchase after an offline recommendation from a frequent dyer friend: Splat Midnight in Indigo—30 wash semipermanent that took to my normally medium brunette hair well without any bleaching, etc. — PolitiTweet.org

@ericnull Honestly, no tricks here. My immediate family are all wonderful people who made rational judgments after being exposed to more information. It helps that everything awful that used to be insinuated is now shouted aloud. — PolitiTweet.org

"I Am Not Your Negro," the James Baldwin documentary I highlighted in my last newsletter, is streaming free on PBS through 6/21. It is essential viewing and now you don't have an excuse not to watch: https://t.co/LmpBlUR92W https://t.co/4Xz7HbPWZU — PolitiTweet.org

His kindness and humor were with him until the end: during our final video chat last week, he blew me kisses and warned that it was "no fun getting old." We were all lucky to have him almost 88 years. I love you, grandpa. https://t.co/L9NgwDd4SJ — PolitiTweet.org

This week my family buried my grandfather, Arlo Peterson. He was a devoted husband, father, grandfather—and farmer. A magician, really, who tilled Kansas soil for decades and turned it into a bounty for people near and far. https://t.co/qIMiKVMMIN — PolitiTweet.org
