Entrance to a Three Day

[degringolade]

 
Post-Impressionism / Pierre Daura/ Fall at the McCorkle's Barn

Not super interested in going in today, but there really isn't any reason not to.  I will do the bare minimum.  More than a lot of folks are managing to do even less than that.

Hard to say anymore what is actually going on.  The data is corrupted and disfigured by the competing narratives.  Each seems intent on talking its book.  The data presented seems to have been focused by an ideological lens in every case.  Maybe my idea of a lens is not the appropriate way to look.  A lens implies focus, but most people fail to understand that the focus of a lens usually does narrow the scope of a view and doesn't show the entire picture, just the focus.  Perhaps the expression of an ideological filter might be more appropriate for the data and "news" being presented to me.  A filter is specifically designed to only let specific wavelengths through.  With a filter, you accept the reality that you don't see all the light.  

It doesn't appear to me that this whole process will have a happy ending.  There is going to be a lot of hurt coming out of the hurt locker.  

I hope I don't get my fair share.
