I've got nothing against broken people – after all, if you don't have a few cracks you aren't living – but when one doesn't accept they're broken, which would allow healing, then I have a problem.

People have actually asked me if my laugh were fake, which makes me wonder who fakes laughter? And why?

If believing in whichever deity doesn’t manifest itself in you being a better person, your religion is shite.

The result represents a seismic win for the growing progressive wing of the Democratic Party.

I'm convinced that when a country has a museum to whichever group, it just might mean that they don't really give a damn about that group especially if said group is still around.

Does #Iran have a self-replicating – like the mines Benjamin Sisko used against the Cardassians – navy? Gotta ask because #Trump keeps destroying them yet they keep fighting.

Apparently Lindsey Graham is dead? At least Hell doesn't need to make an entirely new level because he was never as interesting as he probably thought. #lindseygraham

I just met the awesomest bully at my local Safeway. It was built like a little tank, with a massive head almost a third the size of the rest of its body. And it was the friendliest dog I've encountered in awhile. It also bugged me that it its owner had a massive chain around the dog's neck.

94° at 2118 (9:18). No way I'm running in that. It's cooler than earlier today, but still hot. If it hit the 80's I could roll with it.

I went running earlier – it was a mere 98° and of the heat weren't enough I had to move around what felt like hundreds of people on the Mall for the Great American State Fair – though I called it quits after an hour or so. I'll try again when the sun goes down.

What bothers me about people who treat those with different skin tones as distinct races is that it’s insanely ignorant. Skin color is an evolutionary adaptation/response to environment. If generations come up in colder environments, they tend to be lighter, with the opposite case in hotter ones.

One of the saddest questions I’ve been asked in recent memory was “Is my laugh real?” The idea that someone can laugh deeply, laughs from your heart is somehow strange or unusual is the saddest commentary.

I understand what the phrase ‘work, smarter, not harder’ means but sometimes you gotta work harder to figure out what smarter is.

The thing about Trump’s foreign policy - while for the most part inept - is also fairly obvious, while Democratic foreign policy appears more competent and has better optics, despite sharing similar purposes and goals. In other words they differ mainly in terms of presentation, not purpose.

I know it’s counterintuitive in the United States, but shouldn’t work bring joy (of some sort)?

The notion that people care about pricing when they require major healthcare procedures is so ridiculous it’s almost funny. The problem is not whether or not we know the price of whatever treatment. The problem is that we have a for-profit healthcare system. #SinglePayerhealthtcare

Ever notice – no matter the Democratic or Republican Party – nothing really seems to get better for the majority of people? Which makes sense since, overall, #democratic policies are typically little different from #republican ones. #politics #oligarchy #geritocracy.

‘Psycho Killer,’ an underrated movie, stars Georgina Campbell, who has to be one of those captivating protagonists– bar none – in movies today. She’s that good. 🎥 #georginacambell #psychokiller #horrormovies

If you’re a religious person and you find yourself hating someone for fairly superficial reasons, such as the color of their skin, then your god has failed you. #religion #belief #faith #philosophy

Racism In the current day, if you believe in the idea of “races” you’re buying into the underlying premise that makes racism possible. What’s worse is that I am by no means the brightest person on the planet, so I can figure it out, why can’t more people?

After my run I downed a half-pint (?) of Ben & Gerry’s Butter Pecan ice cream. If this is something that for whatever reason you need to do, let it melt first and drink it.

A curious feature of American-style capitalism is how it encourages criminality and sociopathy. It (seemingly deliberately) creates instances where hard work and honestly are to one’s detriment.

#reddit reminds me of X (otherwise known as the app formerly known as Twitter) before it went to shit (Elon Musk just put its inevitable decline on hyperdrive).

The Last Straw The conflict with Iran, Israel and the United States isn’t a case of ‘both side-ism’ What it is a case of the US and Israel being deliberately aggressive and trying to impose their will on a country that clearly will not tolerate that shit. #politics #israel #iran #unitedstates

I've had it with the people bitching about Trump because without fail all they do is pretend that everything would be just awesome if it weren't for him. That is bs, besides the only reason Trump 'exists' in this context is because the US is more a democracy in name than reality. #corporatocracy

It’s a fascinating thing when people walk by you and pretend you’re not even there (by not acknowledging your presence)? I’m not sure if it’s cowardly or what but it is interesting.
