So brother  Ever want to learn another language

Another language?

                      You’re confusing me.

Im confusing you

             

                   When I was a kid I wanted  desperately   to learn Latin

Why would you want to learn that?

 So many English words are rooted in Latin I figured that reading as much as I did that rather than going to the dictionary when I was stumped on a wordcoudnt contextualise it or phonetically had to sound out to find it in the dictionarythank gawd we had phonetics

                                                      I figured Latin woud give me a legup save me time

I did not know that.

Ja

      Wanted to desperately

Well, what happened? You’re usually so aggressive when you want somethingargued.

Fuck

        I woud have to have gone to Catholic school

Jaysus.

    I barely survived Holy Communion

I didn’t know that.

Had to let it go

                         We had French in junior high  I did well in tha  You

I sucked.

Then had Russian in high school in order to fulfill college requirements which  duh I had no intentions of attending

I didn’t take a language.

I didnt know tha

No. I knew I was going into the Marine Corp.

I didnt know thaya never said

I did not.

Why

Wasn’t your business was it?anya had a stick up your ass regarding the military. I didn’t want you all over me trying to change my mind.

I wanted to enjoy hanging with you, being your brother.

When you enlisted you floored me

You cried.

       You broke my heart supposed to get an apartment together when you graduated

Her parents her little sister  all deaf

    Why would you date a deaf girl?

Because I knew some day Id meet you an coud count on you to ask asshole questions

                                                                             Christ

I learned signing quickly

Became awfully adept so she said

She taught braille to the blind

Which  Im sorry to say   I struggledhardly picked it up at all

                                                                   Maybe

Because I broke so many fingers tha  wha   nerve damage  they werent  subtly receptive

    I have no idea, man.

 

 

Helen Keller

Yes. I had to look it up.

The dictionary said it is a social class characterized by precarity, a constant state of uncertainty, lack of security.

The article had referenced, precariat, an identifier, to some of the people who voted for Katie Wilson, mayor-elect, of Seattle, a socialist, little s.

                       Progressives pounding the snot out of establishment democrats

Yes. About time. And she won with fiftyfive percent of Seattle residents voting; Mamdanis New York election, a dismal fortythree percent of New Yorkers voted.
