Whites, it must frankly be said, are not putting in a similar mass effort to reeducate themselves out of their racial ignorance. It is an aspect of their sense of superiority that the white people of America believe they have so little to learn.

I wonder what the local republicans will say about this..
"Face masks must be worn at Norfolk Naval Shipyard beginning Monday, January 16.
They cite the CDC's issuing of updated community levels for Portsmouth indicating the city's COVID Community Level has been elevated to “high” (red).
They also said that under these circumstances, social distancing is also required, but can be waived if all personnel are wearing a mask."
I’m afraid I’ll be a book that no one reads. Music that no one listens to anymore. I’m afraid I’ll be abandoned like a movie playing in an empty theater.

@LnzyHou I'm 54 (old, but not old) and I just looked up the brand. I think the Mary Jane shows are adorable! I just may have to splurge. Thanks for the suggestion!
@janallmac Thank you! My hips already have arthritis and bone spurs and am so looking forward to comfie sneakers.
@BrazenlyLiberal Thank you for the laugh and support! 🤣
29. Your mind doesn’t wander. It moves toward what it finds most interesting. If you want to focus better, become more curious about what's in front of you.

Cory Muscara, a former monk, meditated 15 hours a day for 6 months straight with one of the toughest Buddhist monks on the planet and shared what he learned.
The ones that hit me hardest:
3. Who you are is not your fault, but it is your responsibility.
16. Sometimes we need to get out of alignment with the rest of the world to get back into alignment with ourselves.
20. To feel more joy, open to your pain.

Long gone are the days when wearing Keds all day was comfortable.
I have reached the age where I need to be fitted for sneakers. One of my arches seems to be collapsing a bit and walking has become excruciating on the outer edge of my foot and my hips.
Who knew?
My appointment is tomorrow morning. I see multiple dollar signs in the future..
@ceb How do you find such old posts to boost? It's as if you have a magic time machine. 😂
Maybe it’s just me but it seems all too convenient that two sets of documents are “found” in a desk that Biden had not used in six years just as the Republicans turn the house and as the clock counts down on DOJ’s decision whether or not to prosecute Trump. Never mind the disparity in the details, there if close to 40% of the electorate who have neither the ability nor inclination to use rationale and reality.
What's so funny 'bout peace, love, and understanding?
