@simplebits omg, it beautiful. #quarters #paperRouteKids more! More!

The other day, an old man gave me five quarters and said they are the 2023 women’s #quarters
I said thank you and they passed out of my mind.
But then I thought you know, this dude is old enough to remember when putting a real non-fictional woman on a coin — much less a Black or Hawaiian woman — was unheard of except I guess founding seamstress Betsy Ross. He was marking at least a little progress to me

Anyway look up aviator Bessie Coleman and teacher Edith Kanakaʻole you won’t regret it

Fifty cents.
Two #quarters
is all it costs.
The jingle of
an ice cream truck.
A power that stopped time.
Look both ways
before you cross.
Mom smoking a cigarette
from the window
shaking her head no,
"Not today."
Shoe stomping the cement.
A closed door.
It sucked to be poor.

Please please please, to all #FOSS #journalists / #writers, STOP using #seasons in your articles. You have #global #readership, not just hemispherical, so using seasons to denote time creates friction; readers must deduce which side of equator YOU are, then do arithmetic to resolve time for THEIR equator-side. Use #Months, or #Quarters.
