Thinking About Stuff
Today is Groundhog Day. I don't know where it came from - and I don't care. Embracing this stupid tradition only makes us look like a bunch of superstitious boobs. I'm sorry if I'm not "down with it," or whatever the kids say nowadays. I have no time or energy to devote to superstition or stupid traditions. The idea that a rodent (or anything, for that matter) seeing his shadow or not determines the weather for the next month and a half is as ridiculous an idea as has been devised. The problem is that, sometimes we get so engrained in something stupid that it's impossible to let it go. Beyoncé has more black people in her than President Trump has in his Cabinet. His Supreme Court nominee is yet another middle-aged white man. Our government is full of them. It's no wonder that we can't accomplish anything for the lower class and minorities - we have none of them in government or anyone who understands what it's like to live from paycheck...
