Now for the news. Britney Griner was wrongfully detained for 294 days. Now she’s home. I’ve been waiting to make the “Brittney is on her way home” video for so long. It just felt like it was never going to come. So often, we don’t have the happy ending. So often we are left with tragedy, go fund me’s, and unsolved cases. But this time is different. This time she came home to her wife. Yes. Yes. Let’s go.
