Snapshots On A (Fast!) Downhill Journey

You, me and a coupla million others, chief!

This time I sat on these pictures for a while cause I have the bad habit of releasing photographs unto the world before they're fully cooked. Usually, it's just the excitement of seeing something new, particularly after a long wait between pictures. Sometimes they might also be particularly timely. Unfortunately, it doesn't give me the proper time to actually notice all the unseen imperfections that remain (as opposed to the ones that I don't see at all). And it makes my editing prowess appear even less than the rudimentary level that it is.

Just a few snapshots in San Francisco of a day in April when millions across the entire country decided to step up and voice their discontent at a cult that that has needlessly launched said country into a completely voluntary disarray of self sabotage and incompetence. I really, truly do not know how any of what Trump and his admin of yes men are doing is going to lead to the betterment of our country. A man who was voted in to fix our economy on the first day of his presidency, has instead chosen a course that most people, more knowledgeable than his "very large- a brain," agree will instead, sink, doom and seal its fate! We find ourselves at the mercy of a master plan concocted by someone with... multiple bankruptcies- a man who was literally forced to sell his name as a way to evade debtor's prison; 'advised' by the likes of a financial genius who is nothing more than an anagram of a fellow flunky and criminal.


What I do know is that I plan on retiring end of this year, and don't know if I'll have to return to the workforce when I'm even older than the seventy I'll soon be. My Social Security is less and less secure with each and every passing day, as MAGA millionaires and billionaires circle the wagons licking their lips, salivating at the chance of pocketing that needless "entitlement." And it's demise might be the one, the only thing, the final straw that finally frees the MAGA minions from the numbing mind meld of a trance they have willingly capitulated to...
