Your pictures are often too interesting to ignore. And sometimes, the way your mind works is purely amazing. What an interesting topic tonight. I didn't tell you this when you did the retraction (of sorts), but I found nothing wrong with you speaking your mind. And if people couldn't handle that, then it was their issue, not yours. I get you not wanting to rock the boat, but sometimes, if you write long enough, you'll likely find that stubborn streak inside you to simply say, "Too bad, so sad," if someone doesn't like what you wrote. I've gotten more opinionated in my posts from time to time. It was damn near impossible to stay quiet during 2020. And trust me...I didn't. I didn't pontificate. I stated my opinion with fervor and then I moved on to the more Mary Poppins topics I explore. lol In any case, keep it up, Mark. You're handling this nightly writing thing pretty damn well!
Thank you so much Chuck, you caught me up late tonight. I tried to be careful and thoughtful with what I said in the politics post but wanted my opinion out there because I had not heard that perspective about the City and State going through a whole lot but not short-circuiting the necessity of trials. When I saw that picture I knew I had to make a story around it. I love elephants and have another post upcoming that led me to tonight's post. I think if I need to do politics again it would be in a separate Newsletter so people can pick and choose. Thanks for taking the time to comment.
