I started this account so my son could follow his favorite YouTubers. Now I'm taking it over because Meta is dumb.

I finished this book yesterday.
It's nice to read about others examining their privilege & its implications.
I liked the autobiographical viewpoint & how the author illustrates how deeply ingrained stereotypes & bigotry are in our society.
Good read.

My wise, beautiful, smart, & awesome wife recommended this book to me.
Folks, this one is going to stay with me for a long long time.

I finished this last weekend.
I'm glad I read it.
As is frequently the case, as bad as I assumed things were, they were far far worse.
They continue to be bad.
I so desperately want the world to be a better place.
Turning a blind eye to history won't improve anything.

Today I finished A People's History of the United States by Howard Zinn.
Wow, not only does history repeat itself, it doesn't even bother to make enough changes to fool a plagiarism checker.
Same font & everything.
The book is a great argument for #NoWarButClassWar.
It's LONG but worth the time.

17 Years ago today we went on our first date.
I'm just so lucky that you chose me and continue to do so.
I'm still learning things about you.
You keep surprising me.
You keep making me laugh in new ways.
And you keep letting me touch your butt, which I also enjoy.

Hey team
This is my daughter Maggie.
She has diabetes, Down Syndrome, & autism.
She loves Barbie, Disney Princesses, The Wiggles, & Queen.
It's #DisabilityPrideMonth.
Cutting #Medicaid will leave her those like her without health care.
It's defacto eugenics.
Enjoy the disabled while you can I guess.
