    You sure do like quoting yourself, must be difficult to engage otherwise? Not an sly-stupid statement or question.

    A woman called Heather Heyer
    Do not stand at my grave and weep
    I am not there; I do not sleep.
    I am a thousand winds that blow,
    I am the diamond glints on snow,
    I am the sun on ripened grain,
    I am the gentle autumn rain.
    When you awaken in the morning's hush
    I am the swift uplifting rush
    Of quiet birds in circled flight. 
    I am the soft stars that shine at night. 
    Do not stand at my grave and cry, 
    I am not there; I did not die.

    I love the pie chart. One hundred organizations exist to practice "general hate". Can you imagine joining an organization just committed to hatred?

    What do you hate?
    I DON'T HAVE TO CHOOSE - I JUST HATE.
    Do you hate me?
    OF COURSE I DO, MY COMMITMENT IS GENERALLY TO HATE.

    Things that matter:

    1. Your health

    2. Your family and friends

    Some people do not realize how much these things matter, until they lose one of them.

    I like the snarky antagonism. The topic of institutional racism often gets discussed in here. But as you see in other threads, many people think racism only comes from the guys in pointy hoods and want to call BLM a terrorist group.

    Marcellus Williams, 48, was set to be put to death by lethal injection on Tuesday at 6:00pm at the Missouri state prison in Bonne Terre.

    Americans are regularly advised by the State Department to avoid going to countries — like Venezuela, Haiti, or the Philippines — that are considered too violent or politically unstable to visit. But according to the NAACP, people of color don’t need to cross an international border for their lives to be in danger. Racism is so bad in Missouri that the civil rights organization has issued a travel advisory warning people of color that they could be endangering their lives if they visit the state.
