Becoming a duller shade of magnolia by the day...

My one exudes 'don't fuck with my boss', he only needs to growl and people get scared which he will do at the slightest hint of trouble for me.I would really love a Belgian Malinois. Any dog that can be trained to answer a telephone is pretty awesome anyway; but one that positively exudes Don't Fuck With Me is even more awesome -- particularly when it's on a stout chain held loosely between finger and thumb.
Sobriety didn't last long. Visited a mate and had a few lines. Now the wine is open. Oh well at least i didn't stock up myself so its just the cabernet with me tonight. I find it hard to go without the wine. I often dont drink enough to get pissed but I just love wine so much its hard to totally go without.
My problem is i have spent many years collecting wine so i have a lot of really good booze always at hand. And i really love my wine. Its a passion. So going without never works. I stopped at one bottle tonight. Going to bed now. I could keep drinking but i am taking the sleep option. Plus i have shit to do tomorrow. Enjoy your vodka bro.Well it's week two of Ramadan for me :/ - liquor store is closed for a month, bars are all closed, cafes/food court etc are all closed during the day, everyone is fasting so no coffee, smoking driving is a fucking nightmare as everyone is asleep.
Thankfully I stocked up prior (400AU$ for a case of vodka)
For G because sleep finds us all and we'e all black sheep.
We are brothers and sisters alike.
Love you mate xx
The angels jump and play all day long,
They even have their favorite songs.
The angels are joyful all through the day,
Cause at night they know its time out for play.
So they settle down with one another,
Sister to Sister and Brother to Brother.
All of a sudden they all start yawning,
The sun is out and its Playtime Morning.

The Civil Rights Movement won great things for the nation's minorities, but these victories came at a tremendous cost for the people who won them. For years, black communities suffered through protests, riots, and, let's say, "vigorous" police enforcement. And there's an even sadder case of discrimination from this time which almost no one knows about; one which put a lot of black men into mental hospitals.
Prior to the 1960s, schizophrenia was thought to be something which only middle-class women suffered, like the vapors or plodding missionary-position sex. Its symptoms, as understood at the time, matched what we'd now call depression, and it was typically chalked up to pressures related to housework and motherhood. But that all changed in 1968, with the publication of new psychiatric guidelines which reclassified schizophrenia as a disease which manifested via outbursts of ultra-violent aggression. Before, schizophrenia was treated with compassion and pity. Now, it required containment.
Guess how that turned out.
OK, we'll tell you. In the years that followed, schizophrenia diagnoses in "angry black men" skyrocketed. Moreover, a specific type of schizophrenia was suddenly discovered: paranoid schizophrenia, sufferers of which were typified as having "delusional anti-whiteness." Which sounds laughable; considering the lynching and segregation and bombings and arson and goddamned medical experimentation, it'd be delusional for a black man not to be anti-white.
The psychiatrists who changed these guidelines probably weren't being explicitly racist. But in the words of the psychiatry professor who identified the sudden trend, this change "reflected the social tensions of 1960s America." Far from being a cold, clinical decision, the new diagnosis procedures were heavily intertwined with the cultural values of the day, or at least the cultural values of white doctors, leading them to create what was essentially a modern version of "drapetomania" -- the old "illness" concocted to explain why slaves so often fled their masters.
