Please share if you see this.

I have to get the oral surgery before the hernia, and they want $1200 upfront to
schedule.

I really have been pushing lately to get this money ASAP so that I can be fully recovered before the holidays.

The GFM has more details on the surgeries.

This is a reminder to all black men.
Our life expectancy is 71.

71 means 35 is your midlife.

Get to being intentionally proactive about your health if you haven't been.

We deserve better but we must also be better.

My 2 cents that noone asked for.

I think the most. . . boiled down thought I've ever had about death came to me at 8 yrs old when I found out my cousin died.

At 8, all I could think was "I thought I would see her again."

And, I realize. . . that's really the whole thing.
33 years later, I'm sad that I really never saw her again

Very bad: OSU unilaterally cancelled the registration of grad students attending the joint conference of the National Society of Black Physicists and the National Society of Hispanic Physicists. And OSU won't fund recruiting at the Society for Advancement of Chicanos and Native Americans in Science.

NYT - Hamas holds hostages, while Israel holds prisoners. The racist dehumanization of Palestinians in the NYT is so deeply embedded that the paper would probably spontaneously combust if its writers and editors treated Palestinians as human beings equal to their Jewish Israeli counterparts.
