You and I have begun to blur. Isn't that how you found me? Every crime of yours... feels like one I am guilty of. Not just Abigail's murder, every murder stretching backward and forward in time. Freeing yourself from me and me freeing myself from you, they're the same. We're conjoined. I'm curious whether either of us can survive separation. Now is the hardest test, not letting rage and frustration... nor forgiveness keep you from thinking.

The Political Cartoons of Herblock.
Early 1960s, ladies and gentlemen.
You could post any of these without the date and some people would think they were done today.
The boomers are right about a lot of things. Even if sometimes they blame it on the wrong people.
Planned obsolescence is making everything terrible. Tipping is out of control, pay your damn workers a fair wage (still tip though, since that's the system right now and they need that tip to live). Not everything needs to have an app, account, and subscription. Physical media is important. Social media is poisoning people's minds (boomers included). America is dying (capitalism and nationalism being the main causes). Not everything needs to work off smart technology that's a pain in the ass to use. And for fucks sake, give us buttons to push, I don't know where the damn remote is.
And yes, fries come with the burger. Unless you're ordering a la carte. A meal consists of more than just one item. Having sides prominently displayed that don't come with it is just deceptive. That just leaves the workers to warn every damn customer beforehand before they (rightfully) complain. Also, sauce packs should be free.
Remember The Blind Side starring Sandra Bullock? The movie showed how a kid who had an extremely rough upbringing got help from the family of a school friend, found success in football and ultimately ended up being adopted by the family. Turns out he was never adopted.
Michael Oher says that he was tricked by the Tuohy family into signing documents that made them his conservators. Since he was already 18 at the time the family told him, “that it means pretty much the exact same thing as 'adoptive parents,' but that the laws were just written in a way that took [his] age into account.”
Oher also says that papers were signed so that his story and likeness were given away for free to use in The Blind Side. He also never got a single royalty check for the hugely successful, Oscar nominated film in the 14 years since its release.
It just continues to baffle me that they essentially purchased a young Black man's life to make football money off of, like buying a racing horse, except a person. Like, I don't know how else to say it. And then made everyone think it was something wonderful they did to "save" an "impoverished, Black boy", and he's been saying it for years to no avail that they took advantage of him!
Heaven’s about to get stuck with the messiest maximalist Supreme Archangel they’ve ever had the misfortune to work under.
