I watch the ripples change their size
But never leave the stream
Of warm impermanence
And so the days float through my eyes
But still the days seem the same
And these children that you spit on
As they try to change their worlds
Are immune to your consultations
They're quite aware of what they're goin' through

Linkee-poo alligators stole my homework

Very busy day, so not much.

"The Duke and Duchess of Sussex — also known as Prince Harry and Meghan Markle — have announced that they will step back from their duties as senior members of the British royal family." They intend to become "independently" wealthy, although I'm sure if they need a loan they know who they can ask.

So how's those other healthcare conspiracies going? "It's been ten years since the people of Juneau, Alaska succumbed to conspiracy theories and voted to ruin their kids' teeth by removing fluoride from the drinking water… A BMC Oral Health study by Jennifer Meyer (U Alaska), Vasileios Margaritis (Walden U) and Aaron Mendelsohn (Walden U) found that, on average, the families of unfluoridated kids of Juneau paid an extra $300 to have preventable cavities drilled and filled." (Grokked from Jim Wright)

"'There was no way I was going to be treated fairly,' (former Nissan CEO Carlos Ghosn) said. 'No sign that I was going to have a normal life for the next four or five years. So I can tell you that, I mean, it's not very difficult to come to [the] conclusion that you're going to die in Japan, or you're going to have to get out.'" Yes, that's called having consequences and facing them for the crimes you committed. Tell ya what, Carlos. Why don't you go to France, which has already said they won't deport you to Japan. Oh, wait, that's because you also face criminal charges in Japan.
