NORTHBOROUGH — Algonquin Regional High School has seen an increase in reported instances of hate since the start of the school year.
Northborough is considered to be in Central Massachusetts. More Trump supporters tend to be found there than in Eastern Massachusetts. The state’s housing of immigrants generated some resentment in that region.
What interests, and concerns, me here is the racism and abusive bullying being engendered in kids. The President of the United States is a cruel person who openly expresses hostility towards all non-Whites. Kids see their parents openly state their support for him. This has been going on for ten years, since Trump announced his candidacy, so the first wave of kids exposed to this mentality are now teenagers and 20-somethings.
DougDoug Ends, DOuG Carries On
Until Christmas day, I had never heard of DougDoug. He has 3 MILLION followers on YouTube, but he’s just announced that he’s quitting the channel. I’m late to the party that’s coming aparty!
Seven years? I’m in my 20th year of doing this weblog. Next year, the blog can legally get drunk.
The occasion of my becoming aware of DougieDoug was receiving a copy of his self-published book, that someone ordered Amazon to print on demand. (Being DOuG myself, I’m sure that Doug wouldn’t mind me calling him Dougie.)
The book is all DOUG, and Doug, and Doug Doug, but there’s nothing about DOuG. But, then, I probably have half a dozen regular followers to his three MILLION, and one of the six is offline in the hospital.
Chapter 6 of Doug’s book is a good read. Especially if you read it while holding your breath, so you get dizzy before the end.

The Lennon Sisters always expressed their thanks to Lawrence Welk for giving them their start. But Welk owed them something too. After their first appearance 70 years ago, Dee Dee, Peggy, Kathy and Janet quickly, if not instantly, became the most popular performers on the show.
