A back injury is perhaps the quickest way to become completely aware of just how often you drop things.

Two weeks in, & although I'm slowly healing, it'll be at least another month before I'm back to 80% if even that much.

Past Allen should have listened to his elders.

My kid is in a club at school, and they meet 4x a week for 4 hours. So all the parents chip in and stock a "snack cabinet" (granola bars, juice boxes, etc.) because teenagers are hungry goblins.
I went to fill the cabinet and noticed a padlock on it, apparently someone had been "stealing."
I admit, this triggered me.
I spoke to the coach and told him that perhaps he should talk to the kids and find out if one of them is food insecure instead of locking up some two dollar box of granola bars.
The look on his face, I could tell it kinda clicked, he didn't even think of that, just assumed it was some punk kid breaking rules.
People who grow up with wealth don't even realize that it changes the way they think. Luckily, he's a cool guy, and he was horrified that one of 'his kids' might be hungry at home. Sometimes it just takes one comment to open up someone's eyes to their privilege.

As I tell my own children: If you see someone stealing food, no you didn't.

To gain political power and make his morbidly rich donors even wealthier, Ronald Reagan begin the process of pitting Americans against each other based on race, class, and gender. We are now at the cancer stage of capitalism as fascism is rapidly exploding across America.
