Tucker Carlson Makes Racist Ass Remarks About WH Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre

Carlson has built a whole career out of spewing disgusting white supremacist rhetoric for decades. For someone so certain that the concept of racism is asinine, he has expressed concern about the erasure of white people through “white replacement theory”—the same justification that has been used by mass shooters.

Rio- River

Coisas da SIL

O ontem já era. Pelo hoje espero. Pelo amanhã melhor já desejo. Que se fosse de mim eu já o vivia. Mas existe muitas coisas, espera, reconciliação, novas rotas. É como o Rio que corre e segue seu percurso. Não se perdem as águas, podem até escoar, ir além do trajeto. Mas não se perde, nao volta atrás. Pode vim as torrentes, sua cor muda, algumas coisas podem vim acompanhar, mas não o determina. Dependendo do volume da água possui força e assim consegue ir até o seu objetivo. Não entendo muito bem de água, de Rio, de mar,já tive trauma. Mas gosto de apreciar e assim observo e escrevo. Por: Coisas da SiL

Yesterday is gone. I hope for today. I already wish for a better tomorrow. That if it were me I would already live it. But there are many things, waiting, reconciliation, new routes. It is…

घर तुम्हारा / Your Home

Kaushal Kishore

मैं ने तुम्हें बसा लिया है
अपने दिल की गहराइयों में
जो तुम्हारा घर है अब
यह खयाल रखना
कि तुम्हारा यह घर
कभी न टूटे…

I have placed you
in the depths of my heart
that’s your home now
it’s up to you to make sure
that this house of yours
doesn’t break…

Filosofa's Word

Isn’t it funny how a song you haven’t heard nor thought about for decades suddenly pops into your head?  And stays … and stays … and before long it is invading your every waking moment and you’re even softly whistling it while trying to get to sleep as the sun is rising in the east, and the poor cat raises her head, glares at you as if to say, “Shut up and go to sleep, hooman!!”  This song did just that to me this week, so guess what, my friends?  I just had to share it with you, and perhaps some of you will be singing it at 5:00 a.m. tomorrow morn!  I was happy to find that I hadn’t played this one yet in all my years of music posts!

This song was written by Kenny Young and recorded in 1969 by Mark Lindsay, a solo effort while still lead singer…

Report Catalogs Abuse of Native American Children at Former Government Schools – The New York Times

…The initial investigation found that “approximately 19 federal Indian boarding schools accounted for over 500 American Indian, Alaska Native and Native Hawaiian child deaths.” That number is expected to grow, the report said.

Beginning in 1869 until the 1960s, hundreds of thousands of Native American children were taken from their homes and families and placed in the boarding schools, which were operated by the government and churches.

There were 20,000 children at the schools by 1900; by 1925, the number had more than tripled, according to the National Native American Boarding School Healing Coalition…

Save your words
Unless you mean it
If we think too much of the end
We’ll never start
Step by step, we’ll get there
Where?
I have no idea!
Life is an endless path
Take your time
You might need it
And when you’re ready
You know I’ll be here
Together, we’ll get it through
And what if is not over?
Relax, it just means it’s not the finale yet.
