Today's Today


As a capitalist, I think we should make a deal on this whole Woke vs Anti-Woke thing.

So here's my proposal:
I'll give up celebrating 4th of July - the day "we" (ie: white people) declared our freedom. And then black folks can give up Juneteenth - the day enslaved people in Galveston finally found out they'd been freed - 89 years after white people were freed, and by-the-fucking-way, 2½ years after the Emancipation Proclamation went into effect.

Wanna know what "woke" actually means? It's pretty much just a fairly simple question:
When can we expect straight white American Christians to get their heads outa their asses and understand they're not the only ones here? And that they've never been the only ones here.
