Is this a VOTING DISTRICT? The red looks more like paint got spilled on the floor again right next to the wall and is dripping down a knothole.

Is this a VOTING DISTRICT? It looks like a boot with a tassel on the back. Not sure if that little blue puck at the bottom is a toe poking out of the boot or its own, um, district.

Is this really a DISTRICT? Looks more like ..... a volcano erupting! And it's surrounded by dots of magma!

I’m reading Imperium (1994) by Ryszard Kapuscinski. He’s describing workers trying to organize a strike. They don’t know how! Could this be a future us, if we don’t succeed in stopping the fascists?

This from Joyce Vance. Even if it was only temporary (I can't verify), it's a bit of a slap in the face to fascists..

I spatchcocked a chicken once. It was surreal—like a Dali distortion! It was a blast! (but in a weird turn of fate it took *longer* to cook—more surrealism)

Happy Thanksgiving ALL

Poem seen in Cahors, sw France.
That, then, was happiness.
We didn’t see it coming.
We only realized it when it was going away.
