eyesquash, 
Competitive treadmill, where the daily word is disasters, natural and man-made, people f*cking up and lying, and now, sports and weather.
Where a few excel and are awarded comfort, most don't, and then we all die, having made things just a little bit worse. Most don't know or don't care.
Any escape would be welcome.
And the company of like minds.Here's some dogwood.
