When he was three, on a summer day, my little brother climbed the stairs of our house and ran up to me and the neighbors kid.

He had some medical issues as a baby, so most of his toddler and early childhood years, he looked rather frail and bony. Great kid, but not really what you'd describe as cute. Not on this day though.

He ran up to me all smiley faced and star-eyed and yelled my name. You know, like in the movies. I remember how the neighbors kid just quietly sighed "cute" right next to me. I was so damn proud.

I wish it was something more sophisticated like seeing his health or whatever. All I can say is that I was really fucking proud of how incredibly cute my little brother was, while he wobbled into my arms.

10 years ago, a Black woman told me that, while it's perfectly valid to disagree with other people's opinions, I should rethink the level of confidence that I depict when discussing a topic that I don't know all that much about.

She probably saved quite a few others and myself from a fair bit of trouble.

I started to learn how to dance. You know, with other people. I'm really not the type. It's embarrassing and terrifying. It also really helps me confront some of my fears. I'm pretty proud of that.

Let's see what this leads to.

Great answer, thank you.

I hear they're pretty good at driving local birds extinct right now. Think about what would happen if they got this much time to hone their craft!

Probably, but I'd only believe that there is really nothing to be done once I see someone actually left-leaning attempt everything in their toolbox.

I believe Sanders would have tried to change as much as possible in the US. I also believe that he would have failed regarding a lot of things. Would have really liked to see him try though.

I get it and I don't disagree, but- Well, I for one wouldn't mind some radical change. Just not in the direction that it is going right now. Radical in itself is nothing bad, when the status quo is as bad as it is.

Now this is fucking cool! Sure it will probably take some time to become affordable, but that it's possible at all is awesome.

I mean, I was super curious what Sanders could've done if he had the chance. Instead, we got the opposite experiment.

If democrats in the US vote for stuff like Biden, then they're not voting for any radical change. Trump isn't comparable to that.

Aye People, recommend me some funny communities!

Just noticed that it shows how many days ago I joined. The babies are taking over this thread. This is a baby-thread now.

Guess I run into traffic, yelling and waving at the taxi that just deliberately passed me by. Then I get hit by a truck.
