Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

in light news, I was buying lunch and saw a man in a pink gingham shirt and was tempted to ask him if he was a member of the Pink Gingham Junta

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

So I had a very complicated grieving process last year and I channeled my feelings into a piece of flash fiction about how difficult it can be to mourn someone who's really important as a presence in your life and as a part of a community you love but whom you didn't really know personally. I finally sold it, and as a tribute to ita, I'd like to donate my payment to a charity she supported. Wasn't there one about girls who code?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I mean, there's an organization literally called Girls Who Code, but I couldn't say if ita supported it or not.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Maybe hurricane relief in the Caribbean?

I know about that one, and I thought someone here had mentioned donating to it in her name before, but I might be mistaken.

Maybe hurricane relief in the Caribbean?

A possibility. Any recommended organization?

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

PC: if you're looking for a code org in particular, Black Girls Code ( [link] ) is the one that we sent a bunch of our collective donations to, and I can vouch for them being an amazing and genuinely beneficial org. But I'd also agree that relief in the Caribbean is especially timely.
