Created Equal: Clarence Thomas in His Own Words

A few prompting questions from an off screen voice. Thomas talking about his life, with relevant photos or video clips. We'll done just Justice Thomas who is a great story telling and a voice for it.

So.  The rumor is that DC schools won't get back to normal school schedule until NEXT FREAKING YEAR.

I've already got a drink, thanks.

We have a RINO governor, and a Democrap legislature.

Massachusetts RINOs make other RINOs look Republican.

But we are opening up again, slowly.

No word at work about going back to work on site, though. Looks like it will be slow, which is good. I have to go in, and I really cannot stand wearing a mask for long. (Allergies, hard to breathe, etc.) and I can only not wear one if I'm alone in the office. If the other person in my office comes back, it will get difficult.

If the rumor is true, I have no idea what DC-area employers (like my own) will do.  If they try to reopen, it'll be utter fucking chaos, with employees trying to figure out what to do about child care.  So far my own employer has given no indication of when we're going back to the office.  Little OR's mom says that the unofficial word is that her own workplace will be teleworking until next spring, which I find insane, but at least (if true) offers the option of her taking weekdays with Little OR and me taking weekends, if my work opens and hers doesn't.  But I do NOT like that idea; we're doing great - and most importantly, Little OR is doing great - with our week-by-week custody sharing arrangement.  If it ain't broke, don't fix it, says I.

And yes, I just poured myself another strong Belgian beer.

I have to say, at my age, I like the older Stevie Nicks in this jukebox

Yes it is!  Thanks for posting it, JCM.  

Considering the unbiased presentation, it's hard to believe PBS produced it.

I was very pleasantly surprised. The Antia Hill part is presented, from Thomas' perspective.

No editorializing. I did enjoy watching Biden and Kennedy squirm when Thomas called them a lynch mob.
