this not a trickle but a wide-open firehose that is not meant to douse flames but to disorient the American people leaving us reeling feeling discounted disregarded overlooked overwhelmed overpowered and overthrown (overthrown?) unquestionably and categorically overthrown and now so unrecognizable my country looks far more distorted than even what I see through my wrinkled retina and make no mistake this firehose is intentional gish gallop in its inundation and devastation and
How can one stall a
strategic tsunami with
a spoon and a sponge?

Perfect capture of our current environment! Scary times. I SO feel this… and am glad it popped up as I didn’t see it (didn’t see much of anything) during the whirlwind of April PAD. ❣️
And I’m just now seeing your response! Thank you, my PSC! Yes, scary for sure. In so very many ways. We need to be supportive of one another. ❤
