I might start being a little more outspoken. There are a handful of blogs I am so grateful for, and I'm torn between the idea that there are too many words floating around already and I shouldn't add to the clutter, and thinking more or less "oh fuck it, it's not like I'm pasting anyone's eyes to the screen". I was so upset by this particular facebook post that I needed to get it out, because I know it isn't just this one person, and because I feel so strongly that what has actually happened in our economy needs to be seen and responded to - by the people most affected.<br />But did I post anything like this on FB?

I love the way you put things into words. I love you for not being lazy. I love you for thinking, critically. I love being privy to those thoughts. Thank you. xox ~ddawn dexterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18102881848358629026noreply@blogger.com
