ALL FIXED! THANKS, POLITICS! (video)


In which I don my jester's hat in the hopes that humor will cure part of the raging frustration headache I get when surfing the news. Perhaps you can relate?




The above picture is one of several anthropomorphic paintings or prints that hung in a nearby antique store. I have no idea if they are there today. Here a couple others.

Marmaduke: circa 1580.


Stay thirsty, my friends.


Be seeing you,

Wise Words, Parallel Worlds


Sometimes when I am in need of words of encouragement or wisdom I turn to one the many unseen, yet real,  parallel realities that surround us. Here's something I found by a, "...young and promising voice in contemporary social commentary..." in a universe I noticed while pumping gas.

       
Whoever fights with "monsters" should see to it that he or she does not become one                              themselves. And when you gaze long into politics, politics gazes back into you.                             
                             -Friedrich Nietzsche, Beyond Good and Evil and Labeling (2017), Aphorism 147


According to his biography he is an only child in that universe, so his legacy is (hopefully) safe.



Be seeing you,

Sam
