Things That Happened in 2011 That You Should Care About, Part 1


Things You Should Care About
The Recession.  Seriously. No matter where you are.  It’s a blessing to be employed right now.  It’s a bigger blessing to have benefits.  I do.  I've got a job and good benefits and the world on a string and I know it. 
Bullying.  Not a single person – fat, black, brown, white, disabled, freckled, gay, whatever – deserves to be abused.  The recent surge of concern about bullying and the effects it has on our youth is not overkill.  Children are killing themselves left, right and center.  Pull your collective head out of your ass, and pay attention to what (y)our children are doing.
And would it kill you to stand up for somebody once in a while, just because it might be the right thing to do?
(There will be more on this some other time, I'm sure.)
