Dirty words. They get everyone’s attention. But do you get respect? And do you get the results you want? Is this normal? Should it be normal? Indefinitely? Because I’ve seen people throw verbal abuse and get killed in response.

This killing and destruction is incongruent with promises by a deity. Even acceptance as valid the claim of a land promised by God, surely this was not the way He would deliver on said promise.

I do not think highly of anyone in the Administration. Question: Is this Kushner boy an actual part of the Administration? How did he attain such an influential office? He is a true villain, pardon my saying it.

In 1919, Arnold Rothstein bribed eight Chicago White Sox to throw the World Series. Leveraging his NYC political and economic influence, Rothstein continued successful ventures in racketeering, bootlegging & narcotics. Until shot. The players were all were banned for life. #Sports #MLB

As Autism awareness increases, there is an odd bit of educational history I will share. "Gifted" classes were long used as repositories for learners on the spectrum. Which is not to say they were not gifted--they were. Educators were simply not equipped for their styles of learning. 1/2

The diner stopped serving breakfast all day. It used to be the easiest place to sit and talk. Older people, myself included, cling to nostalgia but we have to adjust and encourage the evolution of culture. In sixty years, older people will bemoan the loss of quaint food delivery services.

Biology is a hard science. It is not unfair nor insensitive to notice this is a man past physical and cognitive prime. Beyond a certain age, a woman cannot bear children. At his age, Trump cannot stay awake or make sound decisions.

Very interesting brain activity and dopamine releases when religious zealots work themselves into this kind of fervor. Hyperventilating plays a small role. In any event, they may become, over time, dependent upon these alterations. Essentially getting high on their own chemical secretions.
