Just in case you wondered what happened next.

And also this, last word from @BirdRespecter.
I’m not gonna post a bunch of dildos and lamps under this post, but I would like to plug the mutual aid hub. Mutual aid is an important community building tool that saves lives, and I encourage everyone reading to find something in your city. Thanks guys!https://t.co/W1w2WhOI6S
