Have you ever listened to his dad’ a Tim Buckley work I wonder? His dying so young reminds me of the tragedy of like Bruce Lee and Brandon Lee both tragically lost too soon so to speak.

I thought the whole amyloid causing Alzheimer’s was a dead end or at least not the best model for what actually is causing Alzheimer’s in people. But I agree COVID will have or is having major impacts on earlier cognitive decline as people age

I saw headline just not interested in learning what it meant but said Disney is shutting HILU downs maybe the price increase is more related to making up expected revenue hit if they basically just run all Hulu content on single Disney app?

I mean as white person on here I feel like sharing I think you are 10,000 percent correct. Saw another post of Baldwin letter to Davis about this topic on here and it was spot on indictment of why we are where we fund ourselves now and I reposted it. Not that it’ll help much

Well sure also did smallpox blankets so to speak, or just native people’s lack of immunity to our diseases help make expansion easier by killing so many native communities without having to fire any guns?

James Baldwin to Angela Davis in 1970, discussing white Americans:

Or, to put it another way, as long as white Americans take refuge in their whiteness— for so long as they are unable to walk out of this most monstrous of traps-they will allow millions of people to be slaughtered in their name, and will be manipulated into and surrender themselves to what they will think of-and justify—as a racial war. They will never, so long as their whiteness puts so sinister a distance between themselves and their own experience and the experience of others, feel themselves sufficiently human, sufficiently worthwhile, to become responsible for themselves, their leaders, their country, their children, or their fate. They will perish (as we once put it in our black church) in their sins—that is, in their delusions. And this is happening, needless to say, already, all around us.

Because choke holds never hurt anyone right? These cowards hiding under flak vests and face coverings are sign of how low our country has fallen. Not sure our country will ever come back from this humiliation if we do it will take decades

The obscene face of Christian Nationalism: outlandish untaxed wealth in defiance of Jesus. Oh, and this time, slave laborers, too! Glory!

Just remember, for any money you give to Heaven, there is always a 100% handling fee here on Earth.
