This “election” might be more wild than the last one. Whatever happens, there’s always a possibility that Modern Industrial Medicine & the Military Industrial Complex will grow in power. Despite this, we all hold the power to change things through our lives and relationships with others.
It was a white captain during my second pump on Okinawa who, more than anyone, soured me on making the Corps a career. However, it was two extremely admirable and professional white officers, named Bailes and Kratochvil, who later more made up for the vicious racism of the white captain. It all worked out, for I left the Corps and spent the next twenty-eight years in the best job I ever had in my life. (Thank you, Grant!) No matter who you are, you WILL run into people who don't like you just because you are YOU. Just be yourself, do the best of any job given you, and the right people will see you, and will reward you for your faithfulness...
I haven't seen a Barricade Garage video in awhile, a bit intense but good comedy.
Our forebears fought and worked hard to reform our institutions, recognizing that injustice on a societal level is contrary to individual rights. We're not perfect, the work isn't done but the race baiting definitely undermines what has been accomplished.
I'm white, grew up in a mostly rural area where the underground railroad was part of our history. Most of the black homesteaders in our county had left by the early 20th century. We had one black kid in town, his name was George and one time the two of us found this giant toad behind an Inn where my grandfather stayed.
Yeah I've been going through some of his old stuff and found some interesting things. Like a reaction to a three year old video with Boris Johnson talking about smart cities and sensor networks lol.
Agreed. A massive undermining operation.
Lovely. ;) Where I ground around my apartment complex I find a few frogs from time to time but most rabbits.
I'm going to have to look that reaction to Boris video up, should be hilarious.
You must not be in a particularly dry part of Texas cuz frogs do like water. That toad we found was as big as a softball. I took it home and let it go in the cellar. Somehow it ended up under my mother's bed and was sitting on her bathroom scale. She didn't say how much it weighed, only that it almost gave her a heart attack, hehehe.
