You know, I forgot you could trick out a diatribe so expertly. Thank you for reminding me. Awesomely rendered with superb imagery and a haunting, damning poignancy I still argue with.

Cassie58 said:
Young people have much to be upset about. It is almost impossible for many to buy a home these days and rented accommodation is in very short supply and very expensive. Why? Politicians again. Supply and demand. If you don’t build houses and you have mass uncontrolled immigration, guess what? It affects house prices and availability of homes. Kids are staying at home longer. I have three twenty plus year olds at home still. Build homes, at affordable prices social and private. Will they? Don’t be daft, we are going back to the 1950’s. Leave your home to your kids, inheritance tax will mean they have to sell it, they won’t be able to afford living in it. Great, ain’t it. Just thought I would chip in my penny worth Dave. We have a massive shortage of housing. Everyone deserves a roof over their head.

Pluck 45. Pluck 47. 86 is his number (we can 86 him, right...at this point, can he be 86\'d 🤷♂️ And yes, the number is a play on Neville\'s excellent counting skills. Oh...This is American me realizing that may not be a phrase everywhere...here in the USA it means to fire someone. 🤣). Sorry I came late to this, was a rough week this past week! But hey, I\'ve joined in now 😅

Well, Neville is surely right about that. But not everything is meant for everyone to like. As for me, I love anything that speaks truth to power. Well done on this, Dave! 🌹👏

The rich get richer and the poor get poorer and politicians are there to keep it that way. Another stab at the back of Caesar Dave? A good read that needed to be said. Economics rules all.

Okay?! [I did notice our favorite Trump supporter skedaddled out of here long ago in January, as if the inauguration signaled a nightmare here he was sensible enough to avoid; whereas you know me, haha, I haven\'t changed since my toddling years where my mother was appalled to watch me walk through messes as if they did not exist.] That said, thank you very much for your beautifully phrased assessment of perceived reality, rendered excellently with nigh exquisite imagery and a veritibly haunting poignancy.

A good write, Dave.
To all my friends: when you view America, don’t just look at individuals. Look at the whole of us. We divide ourselves into two groups: quality folks who matter and those who don’t. We are a narcissistic people with a bipolar disorder. We’re experiencing a psychotic break. Look at the symptoms: wild flights of ideas, manic responses to unwanted questions, feelings that everyone is plotting against you, threats of violence, visions of grandeur.
You’ll need to figure out how to do it on your own.

There is a lot of hard and sad truths in this write, and it\'s worrying times for the world as we currently know it. The biggest warning signs to me are his refusal to condemn the aggressors as that is what he is and wants to be, example does the world think he would of treated Putin like that and got away with it, well written and thought provoking write

I\'m too close to see the eventual outcome of all this. I feel like I\'m the blind man feeling the elephant\'s tail thinking it to be a rope and not knowing that I\'m about to be sat on. Maybe in a thousand years, if we survive as a race, we will know better if he was an Augustus or a Nero.

Charming. Academia declaring poetry was practically the ravings of madmen, inviting any soul who felt a touch of the same to join the ranks of the former poets, triumphs the same modern idiocy as the latest in this genre. Since I refuse to accept that I join the ranks of my esteemed predecessors, IF I\'m allowed to even be numbered among the least of them, and write what the masses don\'t care to read yet am content thus. But enough of me. Beautifully rendered with excellent imagery and a haunting, forbidding poignancy. Thank you for sharing!

Aww, I\'m so sorry! Your O\'Henry wry twist in concluding roused a chuckle which must be stifled for the more weighty reality bearing down on me. Alas she smiled for lack of vision. Superbly rendered with excellent imagery and a playful yet painful poignancy haunting it. Thank you for sharing.
