    Hmmm, same as it ever was?  Problem what problem?   Our institutions and the citizens are operating the same as every generation before – is that what you’re trying to explain to me?

    Look at how great society is humming along.  Who says children needed to be raised by parents – they’ve got a new app for that, I shouldn’t be such a luddite.

     

    I’ve been listening to that sort of advice all my life too.  Fortunately, I’ve learned to compartmentalize so I’m not a 24/7 bummer and go along with the smilie face.  Still when I stick my head out and survey the general societal global situation, holy fuk, this is supposed to be normal?!?!    Oh yeah, now you remind me, in a few days I leave this cabin and wonderful little patch of land for the Valley of the Sun megalopolis and another dose of the USA Reality Show.   Love the time with the little one, takes me back to humanity at its finest, the time alone with him is precious and wondrous beyond words – but the adults scare me, they live in a bubble of contented comfort, blind to all and resentful of any attempts to spoil the rosy.   . . . . .  well, get out of the way, the game is on.     cheers.     so much rambling to do so little time.   see ya.
