Last month, professional race hustler @gregorymckelvey wrote a series of anti-police tweets that went viral. He claimed that as a teen, swat police broke into his house & aimed guns at him & grandmother. Contemporaneous evidence + witnesses say otherwise. oregonlive.com/expo/news/erry…
.@gregorymckelvey versus @gregorymckelvey:
McKelvey became a local star for his activism against Trump & police. Much less known is that he was jailed on suspicion of strangling & kidnapping an underage girl. The records have been expunged & he has contacted media to request they remove reporting. oregonlive.com/portland/index…
After the national election, @gregorymcKelvey led a protest that devolved into a full-blown riot causing nearly a million dollars in damage. His group publicly raised $55k. Only $2,450 has been known to be dispersed. Who received the rest of the money? koin.com/news/local/mul…
Portland is sick. It has no immunity from fraudsters if they happen to be people of color. The virus? Excessive white guilt and self-hatred.

Oh look. Another example of the internet and media colluding to destroy the lives of people they wrongly presume are white racists. This time it happens to be school children at #CovingtonCatholic.
This thread documents the celebrities and race hustlers who have been trying to dox or harass the children. From the usuals like @shaunking to @kathygriffin to @rezaaslan:
I held off on commenting last night about #CovingtonShame because more often than not, when racists don’t exist, people will make them up. I say that as a “person of color” living in the United States.

Islamic studies journalist seeks out people to delegitimize Rahaf: “Many on the far-right love exMuslims, & many ex-Muslims on the far-right often present themselves as so-called native informants presenting to the mainstream the real truth' about Muslims” cbc.ca/news/canada/to…
“Of course, the rescuing of oppressed people is a Western narrative in many different ways...” It’s obvious reporter @shanifanasser sought out activists with her worldview. What evidence is provided that “many” on the far-right advocated for Rahaf? None.
I’m surprised @CBC editors didn’t stop to question whether this report met their standards. It is a thinly veiled commentary column: "What happens the next time a [Saudi] teenage girl or adult woman...declares herself to no longer be a Muslim, does that mean automatic sanctuary?"

Product design best practices dictate that you should ask what customers need and build that.

But a product that you don’t deeply want to use yourself won’t have a soul. Most of the world’s great products were born of personal passion.

Build for yourself first. 4 reasons why:
1) When you are designing for you, the customer is not abstract.

So many bad products have been designed based on generic business plans or analyses of “unmet customer needs.” Yes, there are ways to get great customer signal but that is always one layer abstracted from yourself.
Facebook started because… well, you've seen The Social Network. The Uber guys wanted to tool around in fancy black cars. @stewart + the Slack team started building a game and instead realized what they cared about was the chat software they were building for themselves to use.

Police broke into @xychelsea's home with guns drawn last week for a "wellness check". We obtained security footage of the armed police raid theintercept.com/2018/06/05/che…
"If Chelsea had been home when these cops arrived with guns drawn, she would be dead," her close friend Janus told us, who was on the phone with her that night
"They don’t know what kind of circumstances they are entering when they enter a home,” @mcpnews captain Paul Starks said, increasingly flustered. "The fact that a weapon is drawn doesn’t mean that they are going to shoot it."

UNFAITHFUL SHEPHERDS

"Many years ago, the then president of The National Council of Churches warned that the danger of the great religious awakening taking place in our country, might become fanatical and be carried into our political and business life!
"Perhaps this was a fair assessment, that is, if you conflate #Christian #Zionism with religious awakening. Unfortunately, these "fanatical" #Evangelicals have 0 faith in the #Christian religion to which they give empty lip service--while paying homage to those who hate #Christ.
"For lack of faith in the actual #Bible, #Evangelicals make Scofield’ Notes, (Scofield! A drunkard and a con-man allied with the Satanist, Darby) --#Evangelicals have turned Scofield’s NOTES into a DIABOLICAL FORCE in our #national life.
