The Latest In a Long String of Sundays
Another day that has been much the same as any other day of late. I had to collect various pots and stray plants that had been blown about by high winds last night, but that pretty much exhausted the excitement quotient for the day.
As seems to have happened quite a lot recently, I had a good writing session–most of them seem to come to around the 1300 word mark before it seems right to stop and recharge the batteries. I also wrote a 1970 music post and am preparing others.
The tweet I’ve copied in (source) sums up my current view of the world we’re in and the forces shaping our lives. The problem is, and always has been, that the actions needed to address long-term problems are inconvenient in the short-term for a relatively small group of wealthy individuals and corporations. Conspiracy theories aren’t required as an explanation: greed and stupidity are sufficient.
After last night’s wind and rain it’s quite still tonight, and quite warm. A late walk led to an encounter with a fox, who stared at me for a while, tipped his hat and gave me a wink, then strolled off like he owned the place, whistling I Was Kaiser Bill’s Batman. Some of that last sentence might not be true.
