So far just Gregory, Julie, and I have added something. That's just baffling and sad. Is it because I've tried to get y'all to add something that you resist? Well that's even more baffling. Can't be. Something is rotten in Denmark.

You don't need to post your own poem, you can post a favorite poem by a black poet. Ralph has already said he didn't see any problem with that, and it would be in the spirit of the thread.

Only 10 days left.
Um, Bill, just a thought: maybe people are busy? For instance, GT is the only section of the Sphere I've been looking in on lately. I'm doing other stuff, and I imagine other people are too. Shite happens, ya know what I mean?

On a lighter (blonde highlights!) note, is it me or does Donald look like it's referring to him when Melania says, "And Thine is the Kingdom, the Power, and the Glory, now and forever"? See her reciting the Lord's Prayer at the rally in Florida the other night, at about 0:50.

(Wait a minute, wasn't this a political rally? Might there be a hidden agenda in reciting the quintessential Christian prayer at it? Hmm.)

Its a few days back now but I thought the interview here with Warren was amusing enough to post:

Don just explained his Sweden misinformation by tweeting. In the tweet he makes it apparent that he is being steered in his thinking by watching Fox news. He said this as a defense of his stupidity and doesn't even have a clue how alarming that is.

It turns out that Trump was right but in the wrong way: there was an attack in Sweden a month ago, by neo-Nazis on a refugee center.

Quote:
Three suspected neo-Nazis were arrested in January after a Gothenburg Asylum centre became the target of a homemade bomb attack, leaving one person seriously injured.

Security services said all three suspects had previously been members of the Nordic Resistance Movement (NMR), a group that openly promotes racist and anti-Semitic views and has vocally opposed non-white immigration to the country.

Hooray, somebody smart and experienced and capable and principled actually agreed to become Trump's national security advisor! I'm sincerely happy and hopeful about this. Of course, Trump still has to have enough sense to listen to him, but hooray anyhow.

Milo Yiannopoulos is having a bad day. Apparently, free speech does have limits, after all.

This crap is so disgusting, I wish it WAS all "fake news." Unfortunately, the news is as real as ever. I hope sunshine is as great a disinfectant as we think it is. Then again, doesn't pond scum thrive on a lot of sunshine?

I know I promised I'd butt out. I think Milo makes perfect sense in this bit:
