My circadian rhythm is totally out of sync.

Also I can hear my neighbor snore. The walls are so thin in this building that I sort of have to consider them as a roomie.

I don’t really mind. It reminds me of my dad; he could snore so loud it kept everyone awake. Not me, though- it’s always had a calming effect on me. Like a white noise drone.

🤔 Humans can inherit great wealth but not wisdom, empathy, patience, or compassion...

#LateNightMusings

👑 The White Supremacist King's
Rancid, Decomposing Brain
Surveys the Country
through Eyes Diseased with
Viruses Gluttony, Misogyny, and Paranoia,
Perceiving Enemy Shadow Figures
and Imagined Threatening Factions,
He Boldly Stumbles and Fumbles,
Limp Bruised Hands Fluttering
as Commands of Retaliation
and Violence are Issued,
Terror Spreads across the Land
in Waves Rising and Falling
Where once were heard
Sounds of Mirth and
A Promise of Freedom.
The Insatiable Dark Soul
Craving More Fear And Apprehension
Turns a Face like that of
Dorian Gray's Portrait
Toward the World Beyond
The Borders
And 218 plus Court Jesters
Applaud and Grin as they
Manically Dance
Through the King's
Delusions of Grandeur.

#Fascism

Power, not morals, determines legality. Slavery, apartheid, and colonization were all legal once. Just because something is legal doesn't make it right.

#latenightmusings

What remains is the ancient Latin legal tactic used by the statesman and lawyer Cicero in a renowned case during the late Roman Republic: "Cui bono?" Who gains an advantage from this?

#Latenightmusings

The sunlight drips off of smooth damp stones in a secret airy refuge sheltered from the world by the arched stone bridge carrying the foot traffic overhead. I find myself listening to the burble of water, the quiet demand of a distant bicycle bell, the hazy murmur of conversations passing me by in an amiable flow that only heightens the serenity of this private place. It’s somewhere I have never been, until tonight — when I find myself there behind my eyelids, drinking in its chipper promises of an unflinchingly uninsistant peace.
