Dogbert plays solitaire (Doug Adams cartoon):

Panel 1: I can't remember the rules for solitaire.

Panel 2: I'll just put the cards in random piles and then declare myself the winner.

Panel 3: That was surprisingly satisfying.

If prospective adopters are unable to acknowledge an infant/child's bio parents, I suggest they adopt a Pet Rock instead. 🥚

A white-grey "Pet Rock" sits upon a nest of what appears to be excelsior packing. Behind it is a booklet bearing the title "PET ROCK" above a picture of a dark-grey rock. Also depicted is a cardboard box labeled "PET ROCK" Maxwell Rock Farms.

There is a cautionary statement on the cardboard box, but it is not legible.

individualism Text from the podcast, "Seeing White," S2 E10: Citizen Thind

Chenjerai Kumanyika: It's like, the experience of living as white is a lot about being an individual. And to even be lumped into the group, that's, I think that's part of why when you call someone white, part of the injury is not just that whiteness is understood to be evil, exploitative, whatever, but also just like, Are you putting me in a group? I'm not part of a group! I'm me, I'm an individual, you know.

John Biewen: Exactly.

Chenjerai Kumanyika: It's interesting. So the people who have whiteness, they're like individuals. Other people look at it and go, oh I got to get into that club, you know. So I can be, so I can be a full human.
