And Then A Vote…

   I’m still here but I’ve been like, totally consumed by the local elections. Yeah, right. Anyhoo, I had an excitingly complex choice to make; frying pan or fire. After giving it serious thought, weighing-up all the pros and cons - and that took all of ten seconds, I voted for the fire, my reasoning being to get all the intended misery thrown at me/us in a one-off really big bucket rather than the other side delivering misery in drips leaving me/us miserably thinking between drips wot could possibly be the next misery to be dripped down.
   Giving all that no never mind, we were in a branch of that big chemists and pharmacy chain yesterday and I showed no surprise to see they have donned and laced-up their cashless boots; pun intended.
   Yup, gone were the manned - sorry, staffed check outs to be replaced with three cash or card and six card only machines. A little bit later I done did thunk about this thus; wot are the majority of cards wot are in daily use? My guess is credit as opposed to Direct Debit.
   With this in mind and the chance that, owing to the cost of living cry-sis many folk are just paying off the minimum required monthly from their card debts and thus slowly{?} accumulating the shockingly high interest rates I believe these credit cards can accumulate so it’s little wonder banks are all in favour of us down here going cashless is it? Just another ‘tax’ on everything folk buy. Cracking, no effort, little earner eh? Of course it’s not often I’m right so I’m possibly wrong again...

And Then Just A Label…

   Whilst rummaging in the kitchen cupboard in preparation for sandwich building yesterday, the labelling on the wrapper of the main ingredient jumped out at me for reasons not yet fully understood but probably triggered by the state of things out there. And that labelling was on the wrapper wot’s wrapped round the sliced bread.
   This labelling describes the contents thereof but is it, in these weird times wot we’re suffering, also a dig aimed at a goodly big number of their customers as well? And that labelling was? Soft White, THICK. There’s a message in the package eh?
   Subliminal messaging?  Try this then. Headphones advised if you're in company with any Timidadians, okay?

Quote; Craig D. Lounsbrough.

“A label locks me into a definition that people use to control me. A vision graces me with an idea that serves to release me.”

And Then All Hail The Change …

   That would be the climate of course. This late April AM, I opened the back door to be greeted by a blast of hail, hence the name change from global warming to climate change I guess.
   Found an image on the Interweb wot I shamelessly copied wot shows our final destination and should be enjoyed by all climate disaster believers...

   And then I found this that ties-in with all the talk regards spy - sorry, there I go again - smartphone ‘news’. It’s a tad old yet very new; y’all of an age, enjoy.
