Given the size of that donut shop I have no doubt the cops torched that car. 😅
Ariel shot of an LA intersection. In the centre is a burned out car. One corner has a large donut shop & 12 police cruisers are parked nearby.

“… dancers that dance upon injustice”. 🎶
We’ll dressed upper class people in a ballroom supported by peasants underneath the floor straining to avoid being crushed by the weight. From beneath the floor a raised fist has burst through which seems to be causing some concern.

28 years ago we said "I do" and started an exciting adventure.

Looking back I know now I couldn't have imagined at the time that this would have led where it did. Also looking back now, I can it turned out even better than I’d dared to dream.

Love you so much @barby.bsky.social.
