the crimson and the clover

once set to push the boulder
eternal hill to climb
I knew that it was over
it seemed that it was time
the rot had taken over

The fact that four hostile drones tried to hit Zelenskyy’s plane & it’s barely a blip in the news cycle should terrify everyone. We’ve been dragged so deep into the chaos era that an attempted strike on a world leader doesn’t even break through. When this becomes normal, the world is in real danger.

Four unidentified military-style drones breached no-fly zone to target Zelenskyy's arrival in Dublin
Gardaí are investigating whether the drones took off from land in Dublin or from an undetected ship.

You know something's wrong when in the richest, most powerful country in the world, the President is refusing to fund SNAP and instead, actively weaponizing people's hunger.
