However, the blue lapel still exhibits some human made elements, such as the white dandruff. Thus far, machines are unable to recreate this effect.

Huge fan of Ta-Nehisi Coates. Love his books and interviews.

Can someone check what his self-care routine is?

He is patient, calm and thoughtful when he has every right not to be.

I do not have his mental and emotional stamina. I imagine this is why people have kids? I don't know. Help. LOL

¡Presente, Assata, Presente! Many will tell her story, but she told her story -- and ours -- best.

Screening saves lives: the reality about prostate cancer and Black men The American Cancer Society Black men in have an estimated 70% to 110% higher incidence and mortality rate for prostate cancer than white men

I don't think the people thirsty for a civil war understand what that would mean. You're not going to go out with your pals during the day to shoot Dems and then come home to order pizza and watch Netflix. Civil society will collapse. The only change you'll get will be everything turning to shit.

Serious question: what does it matter that Trump is polling in the 30s unless and until an organized and mobilized opposition prevails in free and fair elections?
