No joke: I got angry hate mail today for writing an obituary of a Black woman scientist—because the person felt she did didn’t deserve the recognition.

Which just makes me want to share it again: www.nature.com/articles/d41...
Gladys Mae West obituary: mathematician who pioneered GPS technology
She made key contributions to US cold-war science despite facing huge barriers as a Black woman.

There’s an older gay man that drops by our office on occasion to have something Notarized and he’s always wearing a purple silk bathrobe over his clothes and he is my fashion IDOL.

Talked to a Somali man today who said his mosque last night was surrounded by neighbors ready to protect them against ICE if needed. Made me feel proud to live in this city.

I don’t usually like attention but I’ll make an exception today since it’s my birthday. I will humbly and graciously accept birthday wishes and gifts and if the world chooses to revolve around me just for today I will humbly and graciously accept that as well.

If the Presidential election were held tomorrow and the two choices were Trump or literally any other random American, I would wholeheartedly and enthusiastically support the rando.
