Scrambled cities: If you're not gonna do the work(on your soul), then you might as well work til you die

 There are two tiers in normal life. Those who are survive and those who thrive.  But nothing is a mistake in life: Nothing comes by chance. You have to prepare for it.  If you thought life was about making money and beating out the Jones's, you've lost already.  Life is: Desire for connection. All unhealthy competition is isolating. We live in an isolated-enough world already. This connection comes from a surprising place: Self-acceptance. A lot of us need to go back to the classroom.

The bitter old colored woman

 There was a bitter old colored woman who didn't like to take a joke off any white man. We never laugh at a person who we don't likes' jokes. That was even more true of her. Her name was Mabel and she had a little granddaughter who she raised to be the same way, and the kid was a beautiful kid which made the thing even worse. 

She was at the counter at the nursery and I was working as till-man. The kid was swinging on the front of the trolley and taking cues from her grandmother. When to laugh etc. I said and is this little one going to help you with the garden and gave a chuckle. Yes, said the grandmother, but in place of a laugh there was only a kind of a morose grin. I said enjoy, that's right, raise em young, I also used to garden when I was your age... Same morose old grin. Weird. I did this a few more times, madman that I am and with the same result. 

Bitter people. We're raising them. Multiplying them in the name of critical race theory. 

Any excuse to make a white out to be the worst thing in the world.
