I saw this somewhere the other day, and I don't have time to look up where at the moment. I think Reddit or something. The comment itself is nonsensical, but the truth that it brought home to me is that race is something that we made up, and it just isn't working out. It definitely isn't working for me, and I can just choose to get off this bus. I've always been confused about race, and now I'm realizing it's because it DOESN'T MAKE ANY SENSE. I'm thinking this is something relatively new. We've got nationalities. That's the big thing. But then there's also the thing I remember hearing about caucasoid, negroid, mongoloid. If that's race, then I guess it's valid, but I don't think it is. Is it ethnicity? I don't think it's that either. Body type? I don't have time to fact check any of this right now, but I wanted to do a brain dump, and that's what this space is for, right?
