    I never expected this generation’s Steve to be so prolific in the political sphere. We need more of it. Like a current day Mr. Rogers.

      A lot of us were last human when we were small children, reading and growing and laughing, then we grow up and accept fate.

        I remember an ad about that. Bunch of kids playing at the park. White girl playing with a black girl. White girl’s mother calls her over and tells her not to play with the black girl. Little girl just asks “why” and the mother can’t really think of a reason to tell her.
