“We’d rather have you dead than incapable.” I wont say who said this in the original. It’s ‘illegal’ for me to do so. When life is worth wasting then something is wrong. Armed services personnel are continually used/abused and discarded. Many religious movements are guilty of this to. They use their members until they are…

Prisons are effectively gang boot camps. You get connected. You train. You fight. You corroborate. You learn the gang boundaries around town and basically get your full college degree in being a gangster.

Working for survival obligations like room and board bills with little or no choice on vocational, entertainment or familial matters. Slaves in ancient Egypt were often ordered to marry another with or without their own consent. In ancient Greece a professional scribe, considered a very prestigious job back then could find himself picking crops/digging ditches…

When did we become a bunch of islands that sometimes collide or collect together but otherwise hide behind our phones social…
