Maybe they would get more sleep if they backed off on the rioting & looting.

it’s not systemic racism, it’s concocted racism.

On a scale of 1 to 10 of stupidity, with 10 being the most insipid, Teen Vogue is a 12.

So, because of slavery, which is no longer a part of the USA, they propose to let non-Whites sleep on the job, with pay, paid for by those evil oppressive Whites who will keep working.

Teen vogue is not about fashions for 17 year olds. It is a manual for destroying Western Civilization.

“We inherited this exhaustion.”

Sleep deprivation is an inheritable condition? Oh no, that means I’m at severe risk, then, since both of my parents did without a lot of sleep during the years that they were working extremely hard to establish themselves economically, while raising six children.

I’d better go take a nap, just to be on the safe side.

Yep, six. The first five of us were born in six years, with my youngest sister being the afterthought, four years after her closest sibling.

I’ll bet you were a bit sleep-deprived, once in a while.

“Yes, they experienced a lack of sleep, but they were specifically experiencing a generational fatigue familiar to Black people and people of color.”

Really? I experienced a lack of sleep, exhaustion and fatigue from working 60-80 hours a week.

Although I have heard of this generational fatigue. It’s what black women cite as the reason for black men who are non-achievers; exhausted from doing absolutely nothing but having that exhaustion passed down in their genes.

"This is just staggeringly, blindingly, unfathomably stupid. I mean industrial-scale STUPID."

Now, my white ancestors are responsible for their sleep habits and dreams? This sounds like a sci-fi story between humans and aliens when the aliens disrupt human circadian rhythms. Someone should write a short story about that invasion. Everyone needs to sleep all the time while the aliens take over.

Why not just get a job at the DMV if you want to sleep all day?
