Now that we have that out of the way...
I promised you some thought leadership. Let me tell you about the other project I helped with last night
we raised $2,071.10 for the above causes.

every month since shelter in place, my friends and I have been hosting a concert series in the children& #39;s game Club Penguin. The goal? To get our friends to enjoy themselves in this crazy world
Last night, we did a special concert + donation drive specifically for the movement

we are five artists, engineers, designers, and musicians.

change looks like sixty people somehow collectively finessing the tech world
and it also looks like five people bringing their communities together for a cause

a loooooot of people are going to tweet about virality blah blah blah blah blah. I have some thoughts too.

Start small, move fast, and be mindful. Take care of your loved ones, and together, take care of the world around you. This movement is a collection of actions, big and small.
I helped pull this off with a broken arm. Do more.
