I wish I could answer this. I think all people are capable of doing the absolute best or worst things imaginable. I think there is a subset of every privileged group that got there without effort but believe they “earned” whatever success they’ve enjoyed. They are often the meanest and laziest a-holes around. I have…

I don’t think a 5 or 6 year old even sees social differences. I started talking about segregation, slavery, etc with my kids as part of reading to them as kids. I exposed them to African Americans in art and literature, as well as American history. I was lucky that we lives in the DC metro region. I made sure they saw…

I like the way you think. Tweet that T-rumfer.

The biggest factor determining state of health is poverty. From the 2009 Economic Tsunami until the last year, we had cuts in PP services in many states. Millions were out of work, a chronic problem for POC with the reigning last hired first fired mentality. Poor WOC lost access to insurance and state supported…

I once got up on the DC Metro to give my seat to a very pregnant woman and before she could sit down some teenaged shit head raced to the seat and sat down. No one said a word. I looked at him, curled my lip, and said,"Your mother must be so proud. Such manners." He, of course pretended to ignore me. I waited a few…

Got bird flu followed by double pneumonia and still worked overtims for weeks before the holidays. I figured I wasn’t the only one sick, and I wasn’t. Why you should immunize healthcare workers first, people!

The Fekaktah Funk, my favorite!

Land of the Deplorables, Iowa is more than corn! Mighty Ohio, land of Milk and Honey Meth and Skeezy Politicos! Let's make a movie about the Legions of Deplorables and how their incompetence almost destroyed the ozone and brought about the recent Ice Age!

COTD.

Especially upper class white men. Says this old white lady.

Idaho north of Boise had such scary anti Obama signs in front of homes and businesses that this little old white Jewish lady literally bolted from the state.

Notice how those lines get edited out of all the news?

Until 1929 it was illegal under the Oregon Constitution for POC to live iin Oregon. There were a few hotels that “allowed” them to stay for short periods of time if they were travelling through or in the state for a specific job. I have never met more unabashed racists. It helps to remember that most of the white…

I grew up on scifi books and movies. Anything short of interstellar travel, something like a model or plaything, would irritate and bore me. At my age I don't have interest in such unimportant trifles. It has taken 30 years for that guy to build an unfinished cathedral, I am 60+ years old, no thank you.

I try to not underestimate the reading comprehension of others on the internet. I got the sarcasm but wasn’t sure anyone else did.

I am still mad the Millennium Falcon isn't available. I really wanted to live to experience interstellar travell. Short of being kidnapped by nice aliens, my chances aren't any better.

Sarcasm right?

Yep, we're special.

Fentanyl is used in twilight anesthesia because it has a very short half life. I think it is the shortest half life of all the opiate drugs. In the patch form, it is bound in a gel that releases fentanyl at a constant rate for 72 hours. The problem is people ingest that large dose all at once and OD.

Thank you.
