This is why, and this is backed by research: “Who voted, over and over again, to have worse lives? No healthcare, retirement, affordable education, childcare — no public goods of any kind whatsoever? White Americans did. What the? The question baffles the world. Why would anyone choose a worse life? The answer is that white […]
I low-key feel Black History Month should be re-named African-American History Month or Black American History Month because too many Americans of all colors, including black, seem to think this is a celebration of race when it is a celebration of CULTURE. African American culture. Every year some good and grown white American, who should […]
These photos were taken about 2 weeks apart. The first one (me in the maroon tee) was on my birthday, mid-January. I had a serious health emergency mid-Decemberish, almost died, all that, but was more or less recovered by Christmas, have mercy. Back at work after the holdiday break and though still dragging a bit, […]
I love this quote by Jane Goodall: “It actually doesn’t take much to be considered a difficult woman. That’s why there are so many of us.” This scientist was a renowned British primatologist, ethologist, anthropologist, and UN Messenger of Peace.

The whole entirety of a woman’s life is GRUELING, the only time we have free of our biology is childhood pre-periods. After menstruation begins it’s a wrap. And to add insult to injury we now live in a time where […]
The graphic shows percentages of how little people read once they get out of school. I honestly don’t understand this, because how do you just…not read stuff? I don’t get how this happens but I know it’s true. I have taught children whose parents didn’t have even ONE book in the home.
One weirdo is on then ANOTHER ONE rides the bus. Except we’re in a situation trying to see which of these weirdos is going to DRIVE the bus. Either way the United States is cooked for the next 4 years. There has got to be a better way.
