Wow, pretty amazingly rendition of the national anthem

"If you're going to watch one video today - let it be this. The beautiful sound of freedom.

Today, 4th of July, as the United States of America celebrate the Independence Day, let us remember all the brave warriors who fought for: 'life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.'"

It's 2024 and I enjoy being able to take a day to cook.

Three different types of salads made with quinoa pasta!

Yes, I do care about the human rights of my descendants.

Why don't you just say your rights in your next lifetime which for all you know could be tomorrow or it could be in 10 years or it could be longer than that. But anyway I think that will get you to feel more motivated maybe.

Making cupcakes today!!!! Need some background music.🎵

Because why would that be good for Humanity???

I don't think the patriarch should be treated SO much worse in the next lifetime when he comes back in a different body.

That's life when you've got a tiny independent streak, I suppose.

I really do wonder how some parents, children and grandchildren can be way way way way way way way way way way way way way way way way way way way way way way way way way way just plain old NICER to "the others" than they were trained to be?

Imagine using your freedom to force a 13-year-old rape victim to give birth, AND not letting her go to the library. SO that's what you do with your privilege!

Maybe choosing gross ignorance just to gain social acceptance and a temporary sense of comfort isn't actually a great excuse for the harmful effects of that flavor of self-absorption and cruelty.

So strangely uninterested in the diverse populations of their planet.

Those "genetically privileged" people (according to xyz) who seem to get so much pleasure from acting like others are worthless to society are only carrying out the instructions they inherited from their ancestral forefathers in exchange for materialistic comforts, or something?

On the way to an Idaho library in Our Great Nation, married ladies of means, who can own credit cards now, (unlike back before 1974), explain why you'd be SO much more valuable to society if you'd inherited a different physical model than the one you're currently learning so much about navigating!

To celebrate our independence!

Quirky wacky rich dudes explain why their nipples will never be as obscene as yours, and that's why they get EVERYTHING!

Wow, it's the 1930s by way of the 2020s...

They think a nipple (only a female one) is "obscene."

I wonder what they think is good? And why? Who taught them to be like that?

"Section 18-1514 – Idaho State Legislature"

https://legislature.idaho.gov/statutesrules/idstat/title18/t18ch15/sect18-1514/

"TITLE 18
CRIMES AND PUNISHMENTS
CHAPTER 15
CHILDREN AND VULNERABLE ADULTS
18-1514. OBSCENE MATERIALS — DEFINITIONS. The following definitions are applicable to this act:
1. "Minor" means any person less than eighteen (18) years of age.
2. "Nudity" means the showing of the human male or female genitals, pubic area or buttocks with less than a full opaque covering, or the showing of the female breast with less than a full opaque covering of any portion thereof below the top of the nipple...."

Lists could be made.

"How to act as if I enjoy being discriminatory towards others, which might include my very own descendants, who will not have my exact same genetics, but also doing it in a way that really gratifies and feeds my ego, which got warped by Patriarchal Culture."

The meanness of ignorance.

Really, the repetitive discriminatory patterns make me feel quite sick sometimes.

Just because patriarchy trained some people to discriminate more against certain kinds of women more than other kinds of women does not mean I should feel like I have to turn myself into either: A) The woman with supposedly superior genetics according to their cultural standards or B) A man with supposedly superior genetics according to their cultural standards.

Discrimination does not feel healthy or good for Humanity ~ me

Just because the patriarchy trained certain parents to be insensitive and discriminatory towards certain kinds of people doesn't mean it's a really good pattern to repeat for children or grandchildren or really any age of human being.

I don't think being so insensitive and discriminatory to others is all that great for the children, who will grow up and possibly continue those patterns.

Maybe some people really don't need to be as insensitive and discriminatory and egotistical as what the unwell patriarchal culture wanted.

The gynecologist posters say you should make babies or you're worthless, but then you have to deal with other parents.

The patriarchy really has trained some parents to be truly self-absorbed and terrible to certain members of society.

Breast is best to feed a baby if you're at the doctor's office, but obscene if you are in a library in Idaho?

Why aren't male chests just as obscene as female chests according to

The life...is now.

The universe may have arranged it so that I do believe in multiple lifetimes. However, I do think that there's something about being who you are now that is unique and irreplaceable.

People deserve to have really good lives.

It's been a weird day and a weird time. I hope the good life comes to more people soon.

Do you like yourself???

So you don't like x type of people and you don't like y type of people and you don't like z type of people.

Who do you like?

So much details.

It's weird how I like cilantro, but I also understand why some people don't like it.

I wonder what gene that is.

I had some soup with cilantro and now I'm considering a freshly baked pastry.

Chill outfits. Cool music.

Be more truthful.

What about "How to bravely stop acting like everyone who didn't have as many privileges as you got from the patriarchal white supremacy is worthless, even though that's what you were trained to do and that's what you got accustomed to doing."

That is patriotic!
