Happy Saturday: from Reggie Jackson to Indigenous Peoples Day; from "shark!" to Dark Brandon; some great moments in Twitter; animal crackers; & some beautiful threads to enjoy

Reggie Jackson describes the racism he had to endure when playing ball:

👉🏽 “Not everything that is faced can be changed, but nothing can be changed until it is faced.” – James Baldwin

For National Indigenous Peoples Day:

It is National Indigenous Peoples Day, so enjoy this thread of Indigenous leaders and activists from our history!

Elsie Knott (1922-1995) In 1954, she became the 1st woman to serve as the Chief of a First Nation following changes to the Indian Act three years earlier

American politics:

A lot of you all would’ve absolutely hated the Civil Rights Movement had you lived through it, and it shows.

I think during the presidential debate, Biden should just yell...SHARK!

Dark Brandon rising:

"like"

— Mark Hamill (@MarkHamill) June 18, 2024

The minute Dark Brandon gets immunity, he should arrest Trump, stack the Supreme Court, make Puerto Rico & D.C. states, legalize weed federally, raise the minimum wage to $30 bucks an hour, institute a 4 day workweek, and give everyone free healthcare & free college.

More great tweets:

When a critical patient suddenly starts talking to long deceased family members, they are soon going to code until proven otherwise. Trust me on this one.

There is a concept known as “thin places”, where it is said that the veil between this world and the next is thin. You can sense the numinous around you, even if you cannot describe it.

Where have you been that felt ‘thin’?
