i only knew Tinu from back in the days of the OG #Blacktwitter, when we were far and few on the platform.
this is heartbreaking and freaking me out.
my #cancer is different, and it was caught early but i also got #COVID19 in the middle of chemotherapy, so her death hits too close to home for me.
may you rest in power and with the ancestors Tinu.
#RIP
Kris Kristofferson: Country music superstar and Hollywood A-lister dies at 88
Kris Kristofferson, a Rhodes scholar who became a superstar songwriter, singer and actor, has died. A family spokeswoman says Kristofferson died at his home in Hawaii on Saturday. He was 88.ANDREW DALTON (AP News)
In case news hasn't traveled here, we have lost @Tinu. She was an amazing presence within the disability community and was just a phenomenal person in general. It's wrong that we lost a light like her due to long covid and cancer. That we don't live in a world that helps keep the marginalized among us safe.
She was an amazing writer and activist. May her legacy live on.
Edit: There is a GoFundMe for her family here: gofundme.com/f/honoring-tinus-…
