I'm exhausted and ought to sleep

But I can't. Naturally.

I'll be wiped out soon, I hope, but as long as I'm still awake I thought I might as well whomp through a few tabs.

It's funny because it's true. It's also sad because it's true.

The gun death disparities is terrifying. The lynching memorial sounds powerful and important. I don't go to Alabama much anymore, but that might be worth the trip.

The fishing for checks makes me glad I drop my mail off at the post office, and the Hong Kong based African football team is inspiring. Prejudice is so fucking world-wide.
