I feel um anyways so I was so bored this week and I was just like uh I'm going
into a negative
funk here I have got to do something positive so I actually went up and I go
you know after I
started reading about Cincinnati I was like maybe I'll go to a museum so the
closest museum was
this museum about the underground railroad the underground not like that that's
what the uh
Swedes call their uh call their subway the underground in England they call it
the tube
you know look at me fucking world traveler I know how to say grilled cheese in
five different
languages um oh god my brain's so fucking tired come on Bill you can make it
you can make it here
we go what am I talking about here so I go all right go to the underground
railroad now usually
I don't like going to shit like that okay I understand how evil white people
are and uh I've
seen enough shit in my lifetime that I really don't want to be reminded I go on
YouTube I see
all the shit that people write it's fucking you know it's depressing but I'm
figuring this is the
underground railroad there's a happy ending after this shit right starts off
with the slavery but
then there's freedom right and there's going to be a big you know we are the
world thing at the end
you know so I walk in there and they give me this little radio and I go all
right and I go it's one
of these museums where you start at the top and then you wind your way all the
way down
and I walked in there and it was fucking horrific it was horrific just seeing
they stacked them up
like fucking wood and these goddamn ships now people's families getting
separated and it was
just in every fucking picture just had some black dude a woman just getting the
shit kicked out of
them and then some evil looking white guy and uh I quickly realized that was
one of the only white
people in there so now I'm looking at black people and I'm feeling like an
asshole like yeah yeah hey uh
yeah sorry about that I kind of got a little out of control it wasn't really me
it was my ancestors
and I just want to get the fuck out of there right so I was it was brutal I
could only I could only be in
there for like half like half hour 40 minutes and I was like I already know
this shit I know this shit I
already know this shit this is fucking it was horrible it was fucking horrible
and I just basically
fast walked down like five flights of stairs to get it wasn't even stairs it
was like a round thing
you know I should have just been going I'm sorry all the way down right and
when I fucking went to
leave this is the best part I handed my radio and I'm so full of white guilt at
that point
that I'm trying to be friendly as possible that when I hand it to the lady the
lady behind the
counter this black woman she goes she goes how did you enjoy the museum and I
was so trying to say
something positive I went too big I went it was great
that I felt like an asshole I sounded like I enjoyed it too much and I want to
be like great
like like informative great you know not great like you know woo slavery
slavery on two on two
ready break um ah yeah it was fucking it was brutal it was brutal so I don't
know that's it and
