People are missing the point in replying to this. Shes not a billionaire because she gives her money away to charity and help people ten times over.
But think about all the money she gives away TO help. She should have been one waaaaay before now
She is quite literally the billionaire that ISNT.
Get they asses Reese.
My photo shows a museum display with colourful Minoan pottery cups arranged on three clear shelves, one above the other. These cups, known as Kamares Ware, are from Phaistos, Crete. They were made in palace workshops, c. 1800-1700 BC. The cups range in shape and size from conic and cylindrical cups (top and middle shelves) to hemispherical and carinated shaped cups (bottom shelf). They are decorated with multi-coloured geometric motifs; with spirals and swirls painted in red and white pigment on black.
Sipping my coffee ☕️ and thinking about these marvellous Minoan cups!
They look so modern it’s incredible to think they were made during the Bronze Age some 3,800 years ago!

As a vibey archivist type, I can still confirm that this looks like a great opportunity to do some meaningful work
Wildly disingenuous of this article to use Al Green’s photo as the main, since casual readers would think the headline applies to him — in the article, it’s states the crypto lobby org Fairshake is funding his opponent because of Green’s opposition to crypto.

It’s probably too late for this.
But it would be beyond meaningful to see my dad recognized at the “In Memoriam” part of the Oscars.
He died in June.
He worked for decades in the movie business, marketing movies. Big movies. Like Star Wars.
I can’t express how much it would have meant to him.
This reminds me of something Toni Morrison wrote.

Out of the 14 council members, only 6 are paying attention while someone asks them to stop senselessly killing
“I cannot hug him, I cannot kiss him.”
One woman, an aunt of a man who was killed during an LAPD interaction by bullets fired from officers. She says it was due to a pretextual stop.
Several aides in the back visibly laughing. Several councilmembers do not look up from their desks.
LA City Council’s City President Marqueece Harris-Dawson says he has been pulled over four times while a member of the council; the most recent was this week. He missed a committee meeting because of the stop, according to him.
Among the questions: “how do you have this vehicle,” according to him.
Stand up to be recognized, speak up to be heard, sit down to be appreciated.
You know you’re at a Black funeral when:
Photo of a few square inches of tree trunk. Growing on the tree trunk are several grey lichens (growing flat on tree), a lichen that looks like a bunch of tiny egg yolks, and a bright red fungus that looks like a half dozen or so round/oval red blobs.
A few square inches of tree trunk. At least 4 species of lichens (Parmelia, two Physcia species and Caloplaca) plus Red Tree Brain Fungus. #lichen #fungi #fungifriends.
I don't understand how we have to beg people to get vaccinated while other people are fine shooting themselves up with untested compounds for unproven "gains" risking god knows what
The most famous line from Lincoln's second inaugural address is also probably the most misunderstood: "with malice toward none, with charity for all."
I'm a fan of Frederick Douglass's gloss on it.

You might recall this thread about a slop book scam website from last month.
Today I got a fake invitation to do a radio interview which claimed the station was in partnership with the very same slop website.
