A Little Sick In A Number Of Ways
When we sent the staff to rifle through the photo archive for a cheerful shot that might improve the ennui brought on by a virus so mild that it may never reach full bloom, we came upon a cheerful shot from the flea market in Budapest, which was, an otherwise bleak experience since an outdoor flea is hardly fun when the temperature is below twenty. The toy vintage motorcycle is quite jolly, but under close examination, the poster above is one preserved from the Soviet occupation of Hungary, a dark period indeed. Therefore, we were not as cheered as we hoped to be
Speaking of dark periods, looks like surveillance is coming to a city near you. Actually it's already there according to the Anonymity Experiment. Torture is also here to stay, as is the new and improved Supreme Court, so we have just about everything we need to establish a police state.
Photo note: Outdoor flea market in Budapest iin the dead of winter.
