WOTM: "Woke" Defined (Finally), Part II
Of course, I wouldn't leave you hanging. Here's part deux!!! If you enjoyed this, let me know in the comments and I'll see if I can't do a little more. I couldn't resist this one. And next time it'll be easier, since I already have the song now.
Well, here we are again — with my overwhelming gratitude. I had such a good time this month. It was exhausting. I think there's over 50 minutes of content(?). And of course, I couldn't do any of this without you beautiful people and your continued support. I really do appreciate it!!! Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you!!! I'll be back tomorrow or Monday to post that Mr. Deity video. Have a great October, and I'll see you on Halloween eve, if not before. B

I'm a gay atheist living in the south. I must be a cult member...
I finally realized the word I was looking for was "withering!" Great job!
Doug should use your music! And maybe sing to your tune? 😆 both are less annoying...
Ha! I just made a cover of his tune — with a bit of a more NPR vibe. LOL!!!
I liked the headphones not plugged into anything.
Love that you caught it!
BTW, love your fingerwork on your ukulele! Wish I had kept up with my practicing like you. As for Doug and his ilk… they seem to be scared to death that they'll end up being a minority in this country. Dunno why that should scare them: minorities have never been oppressed, riiiight?
I’ve had that ukulele for 50 years now. It’s the original! And still sounds great!
Our buddy Doug seemed to get dangerously close to torpedoing his own point. When he brought up Jesus mentioning that if you think lustful thoughts that you have committed adultery, and then turned around and implied that simply thinking racist thoughts about someone wasn't racist... wow. What a 180 pretzel bender that was! So either Jesus was wrong about the lustful thoughts, or (gasp) DOUG was wrong about thinking racist thoughts
Good episode of Major (and well deserved) sarcasm! 😀
BTW, thanks for the blessings...
I guess I'm hopelessly woke. I've been reading books. One of the books I've been reading is "The Hidden Roots of White Supremacy And the Path to a Shared American Future", by Robert P. Jones. He posits that white supremacy was given life back in the 1400's when a pope decided to divvy up the world and came up with the abominable (A bomb in a papal bull?) Doctrine of Discovery (recently repealed by the woke Francis the talking pope) that gave ownership to any lands, not previously known to Europeans, including anything under the land and especially to any people who might be inhabiting the top of the land when 'discovered'. It seems to me that does explain a lot of the why the history of the Americas happened the way it did. It gave me a perspective I had not previously considered.
I just bought that book last week! Haven’t had time to look at it yet.
