       Okay so I turn around and there's my son, my wife, and my sister in law doing various Peanuts dances and I guess I can tolerate it

       I don't know if you've ever suffered abuse from someone that everyone likes, but you feel crazy when you try to say how hurt and angry you are because of that person

       I was playing dinosaurs with my 2 year old. All of his dinosaurs got sick, so they all needed shots. All the dinosaurs cried at getting the shots, but they all thanked the doctor. Either I'm raising a kid who knows the value of vaccinations, or a masochist

       Hey just a reminder for Americans:We're not going to get out of This without Black folks. And indigenous folks. And our immigrant neighbors. All of us get out together, or none of us get out at all.

       Which means that us white people need to give up our privilege. We need to do the hard work of genuinely earning our neighbors' trust. And "meaning well" doesn't do a god damned thing.

       It's going to be embarrassing. We have to own up to when we do things or think things or say things that suck. White people--especially us cishet dudes--are not used to humility, but we can't save ourselves without it.
