Swing Low

"Close your eyes and picture a convict standing in front of you. They're wearing baggy pants and a backwards baseball hat and saying something regular like 'fo shizzle'.
Now open your eyes. Were you picturing a black person?
Because that was a white woman. Shame on you."

I'm convinced that Hillary can't win. Puh-lease. Don't go to the South and talk to a church full of blacks and say "nobody ever said that this road awould be easy to walk" blah, blah, blah. It may be a long road, but as a white woman who is worth millions I highly doubt that she is actually walking that particular road, and so it's a pretty bitch move to explain to people who are "walking that road" that nobody ever told them it would be easy. Yes, Jon Stewart made fun of Obama too, but guess what? Obama can pull that shit off.

I was in a meeting today where people were discussing whether U-PASSes will be able to be tracked in the future, and the possible implications for privacy violations and one of the professors says "Well, I don't think it would be good if for instance they could say, 'Oh look, he traveled down to his ex-wife's house a half an hour before she was murdered in her bed.'" And then the whole room was silent for a second, and then everyone started laughing and he goes "Not that I have those issues or anything." It was pretty much hilarious.


I'm sick and gross. I need to sleep.
