@lizeckhart @aliciaandrz This is true, I think. Someone doing it shows it's possible. If it's possible they feel the *should* of it, and to not act on that feels bad and shameful.
@MannsterRick@GrantRix560304@CalltoActivism Given the frequency of school shootings, you kind of have to say it wasn't made right after *this* school shooting. The one that just happened.
@thelibbiegrant From Anna Sewell's Black Beauty:
"Only ignorance! only ignorance! how can you talk about only ignorance? Don't you know that it is the worst thing in the world, next to wickedness? —and which does the most mischief heaven only knows."
@thelibbiegrant which would also explain why they're willing to use it to such wicked ends, not realizing the hazard to themselves.
Sometimes when they fire it up it dings a point for them, and better-than-slot-machine-odds are good enough for them to keep at it.
@thelibbiegrant I'm coming to the conclusion that even though they're running one of the most powerful mind control machines in the world, they don't actually know how the magic works...
Some soft rain
in the morning
at the end of July
The shaggy-coat dog
doesn't mind
The cat will complain
to be out in the rain
But I,
with my book
and my coffee,
am happy
The invincible umbrella
at the table in the garden
keeps me safe.
@LucasBrownEyes People engaged in the struggles of the human heart, medically and metaphorically, can't hold a candle to a thing I've heard young people are into, that I don't rightly understand.
@thelibbiegrant What Mr. Vance has shown us is that he is not concerned about the how the truth of something from the past relates to the opportunities of the moment. The couch thing is for this moment.
@sierraornelas Makes me think of the caucacity of white folks identifying with *insert minority here* until it starts to get hot and then you can nope out.

@sierraornelas If these fellas are disillusioned with the dream of empire and the lie of perpetual resource extraction and they want to help build a new game, they have my full support. 2/3
