What else is there to do? COVID rages on. Certainly showing no signs of going away. Remember when the lunatic told us it would go away? Hot weather would stop it? Under control? No problem? Actually, the major problem is the ancient problem of stupid human beings-- Homo SAP rather than Homo SAPIENS. If we had no examples of Homo SAP among us, COVID would have been much easier to control. We would be in much better shape. Oh well. It's nature's way. It's nature's way of telling you-- something's wrong. "Spirit", the Twelve Dreams of Doctor Sardonicus. Good album!
It's a little too hot to enjoy the garden right now, but that will change. Change is the one thing you can bank on. Nothing stays the same, and in the end, nothing will remain. Nature again.
I find it comforting to know that everything is temporary.
If you are in a public place, you can easily see who's sane and who is not-- the sane people will be wearing masks.
Right now Lubbock is suffering a heat wave. And it hasn't rained in any significant way in a long time. Many wells suck at the ground water, but that water is a non-renewable resource.
Meanwhile, COVID rages on and the crackpots still call it a hoax/conspiracy. Bolsonaro, Brazil's Trump analog, has it and plans to dose on chloroquinine. Oil of snake, for a snake. We'll see how that works out for him.
Wouldn't that be nice? This is the best I can do.
I took most of these photos over a month ago. Look what's happened in the last month!
It'll be interesting to see what things will be like when the schools reopen. A little over 60,000 new cases per day at last count. Dr. Fauci warned of 100,000 new cases per day. Dan "shit-for-brains" Patrick said that won't happen. I think Dan Patrick is going to be wrong, primarily because Dan Patrick has-- well, shit for brains. But we'll see.
After that, in the garden for a while.
I'll miss this place.
For that matter, I miss the world as it was before COVID. But nothing stays the same.
Next time I'll finish it. By the way, it does seem that as delusional systems collapse, most people will become crazier rather than saner. I think that's interesting.
This alley is good because it is what it is, and everything here is very simple and mostly inert.
Even though these images have been modified in various ways they are a fairly accurate mapping of the real external world into a two-dimensional image space, and should not be in any way controversial. Unlike the image below.
I did not create this image, but I approve of it. Probably controversial though.
