Today is either a day off for Christmas or a day off for Boxing Day in much of Africa, the South Pacific and the Channel Islands. In Poland it’s the National Day of the Victorious Greater Poland Uprising, a day created recently to commemorate the 1918/1919 uprising at the end of World War I.
I think this needs posting:
"If you are neutral in situations of injustice, you have chosen the side of the oppressor. If an elephant has its foot on the tail of a mouse and you say that you are neutral, the mouse will not appreciate your neutrality."

ARE YOU OLD?
If you know what this is used for…
If you know what’s under this doll…
If you’ve eaten dinner at a table like this…
If you’ve ever cooked a delicious meal in one of these…
If you can just HEAR this sound in your head…
If you’ve ever used two keys to run a car…
If you know exactly what song you’d put on if you saw one of these…
If you can think of the exact person that used to smell like these…
If you’ve ever used this tool…
If you can still feel the burn from this…
If you are familiar with where you can find these…
If you can smell the smoke from this…
If you’ve driven in a car that had one of these…
If you know what this tool is used for…
If you know what this is used for…
If you know what this button is used for…
If you know exactly where these things are located…
If you remembered any of thesethen
Congratulations … you are officially old.
