"Lost In the Clouds..."

[psalm_onethirtyone]

To-day I got things done somewhat, and also got attacked by a Confederate reenactor from Maryland who talked about social injustice and manufactured slavery.

And talked to a boy whose great-grandfather had been in the civil war, and got his leg taken off by Confederate soldiers because they were trying to take his boots. And they couldn't get them off. So they pulled his leg off.

And war is always atrocious.

Dang that's really gross! Just for boots? *makes note to self to never wear boots again* In Maryland? Did you visit Antiedam? I've been there twice!

I think the moral of the story is never wear boots.

No, but for real. That's grotesque.

Isn't all slavery manufactured, really? No one's naturally a slave.

Stupid war.

That seems...quite excessive.
