I give up on you, America. You're going to fall into the sun still bigoted, still racist, still dreaming each night that they're going to bring back the block.

I know things are bad, but just in the 20th century, black men were hung for talking to white women, homosexual men were put in prison or mental institutions and it was illegal for women to become doctors in most states. The ball, she roll slowly Miss Roxy, but that doesn't mean we should stop pushing it. Will we see equal rights for all in our lifetime, no. Will our grandchildren, maybe. That's why we push. Prejudice is never acceptable so we speak up when we see it, we vote against it and we educate those around us. Someday will come.XOXO

I was really fucking hoping it would get better in my lifetime. The things that we've won have been tiny, and every day folks are chipping away at what we did win. This is some kind of world, where folks act like I'm an invader in my own country. But I'm not bitter. I'm gonna sit down, have a cup of tea and plan the painful and excruciating demise of my enemies. :)
