Equality and Stupid Facts

I am in an internal struggle whether or not to post the most recent things I think about, which are more relevant (sometimes), or some of the ten pages I already have written. This may or may not result in an increase of average posts per day. another thing to note... I actually will not be using Times because Blogger is an idiot. The sizes are smallest, small, normal, large, largest and if I use Times, it's either too big or too small. In addition to that, the default font is either Georgia and I won't remember to change it all the time, so this is easier.

I can never get enough highlights. I live for dumb facts and stupid highlights… I think it might be one of the reasons I don’t really ever read full articles (unless I’m really interested in them) but just skim and look for highlights. That’s probably why I know 84 digits of pi, I watched the top 100 web videos recently, and I love ESPN’s top 10. I don’t really need substance, anything that interests me for a short amount of time is good… that said, I think I’m going to include any random facts that I know or learn just for fun.

There are more Puerto Ricans in New York City than there are in San Juan, the capitol of Puerto Rico.

I have come to realize (through an assignment I was asked to do recently, coupled with some T.V. I have been watching) that nobody really wants equality, rather nobody wants real equality. Not only does it suppress our problems, but it acts against diversity, democracy, and the ideals of individuality. People aren’t meant to be treated as equals, if they were, every human would be created exactly the same. There is a reason men don’t file sexual harassment claims against other men (they don’t file them against women either, but that’s a completely different story) it’s because most men (I think, I’m not actually sure if this is proven) don’t have sex with other men. Now I’m not saying it’s ok for anybody to walk around and call blacks (those of us with darker skin) n***** (excuse me), but I am saying we shouldn’t ban the classic American novel The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn because they say n*****, or we shouldn’t change the spelling of women to W-O-M-Y-N so that it doesn’t imply that we are simply adding on to the suffix of MAN. That said, I'm not racist or sexist and I'm not trying to say white men are the superior beings on Earth, merely observing that absolute and true equality of all beings is not the solution.
