Traffic atop my fridge.
Most of my model cars are from the 1950's.
Granted it was a fucked up time.
Still I was a kid, and more or less if not happy
Healthy. Which is not something to take for granted.

Been in lockdown for 562 days.
Through these centuries I passed the time 
like everyone else.
Going slowly deranged.
That, and endlessly cleaning painting plastering
my digs. Also making little stuff then taking 
snaps of them. I'm doing paper card dolls again.
I'll post these in a few days.

I posted 700k Perished from COVID.
NPR had some Doc on that said 
in reality it's closer to One point two Millions.
1,200,000 Perished.
This because of mis-counts. 
Also officially suppressed numbers in some states.
Given the divided times.
 The higher number won't be 
acknowledged for maybe a generation.

Given this I play with scale models, and cut paper dolls.
 I watch old black, and white DVD movies.
Just watched "Gunga Din",...again.
 I write swell pacifist rants.
A cool one a few posts below.
That'n generally watch the season pass.

If this had happened in the 1980's.
I'd be doing piles of speed coke, and chocolate.
It would pass the times so well.

Stay Tuned.

 


 

"...Folks around my digs"








 


 

"...primal"

 


A social revolution at any time in any place in any circumstance. Such a deeply primal event should be based on loving kindness. That forgiveness, and an appreciation of all the contradictions, and wonders within, and around us. 'Seems a reasonable place to start from. One based on rage, and vengeance is just more of the same.

"...Plague Years"



Day 560.

This Republic has today passed 700,000
 perished to COVID/Delta.

It's been suggested that 
an actual number would be closer to 
or at One Million.
If the accidentally or deliberately uncounted are added.
This if proved would make no difference 
to a third of the country.
Those that believe COVID/Delta is like the Flu.
That or nonexistent.


 


 

"...Vast"



Closeup of Dusk at my kitchen window.
Framing is a bit off.
Was too tired to drag out the ladder.

We are all part of something
Vast, and Wonderful.

 

“…Bedazzled”




Young adults in Europe are finding ways to beat facial recognition software by covering up or shading specific points on their faces that the software tracks. Companies spend billions on this technology and its being defeated by Young folks in face paint. In both World Wars ships used "Dazzle" Camo to disguise their outline. Thereby confusing attacking submarines.

Thanks to Geneva Hagen for the heads up.

"...Fire Sale!"
