Thoughts, post ideas...

Climate change: our human societies are constructed around certain climate patterns; changes will affect populations. Don't be an asshole.
Little John saying he thought it would be great if a certain percentage of people in Africa died of AIDS. I grew up with my fair share of disenchanted kids with too much leisure time and expendable income; don't go all fucking JD Salinger on me.
Best sporthorse registries, creating the best sporthorse registry; Continental SH? Photo inspections and cheating, color requirements WHAAT?
Greengate lady's comments (Good ol' boy system), Interstallion efforts
Just because it's well-reasoned doesn't make it true; horse books and conformation
Pretty and marketability, that TTouch lady and face shape and prejudice
Comparative conformation and movements (hunters, Arabians, QHs etc)
Non-selective registries; diseases in WBs vs diseases in QHs, Arabians, Tbs, etc.
White horses, cream horses, colors, reviewing reviews
Ideal horse for me
ADHD horses
Defining ADHD
Science science science
Dinosaurs
Child-rearing, public school, anti-Wikipedia, recess
Politics
Books; Harry Potter
Future life, mortality/immortality
Great teachers: Mrs. something 7th grade science, Mr. Carlyon 9th grade physics, Mr. Waldinger AP Bio, Mr. Johnston band (God bless you!), Dr. B
manners, values, weddings/marriage, metabolism of sugar/thyroid health, "sensitivity", evolution, human evo., Raffi tapes & Mr. Rogers
The unfortunate Jon and Kate + 8 GSD puppies
Quiet = nice?
Embracing fluttery silliness, a la Smitten Kitchen. "My affections are fleeting, alright?"
Stupid vs. % stupid activities. The human mind is beautiful.
"You believe that people are inherently stupid and bad, and are pleasantly surprised by individuals. I believe that the human race is a beautiful thing, and tend to be disappointed by individuals."
Beauty vs. art. Beauty = expensive. Loving beauty.
Seeing the world through pony-colored glasses.
Emotional Mad-libs, emotional inertia
