Tbf. Ray Dalio had been saying we’re in a bubble and it’s going to burst about everything for the last 10 years.

Debt descends like a hurricane Taking your roof and your car Life sucked up on the whim of a wind The spiral of disbelief In the eye of self recrimination The debris of who you were Is a lemonade stand Dumbfounded children gaze When all is gone with the storm Rebuild #vss365 #hurricane

We need students of western fashion and the pillars of good wardrobe choices. Leaders who understand that a gray 3-piece absolutely does not go with a pair of cognac loafers. The power and freedom of not having his spray-on tan be the exact same shade of shoe leather.

Tom Watson, former Labour leader, has joined Palantir, the data analytics firm that has become integral to the UK's national security and surveillance strategy. #TomWatson #Palantir #UK #surveillance #politics www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2…

Tom Watson’s move to Palantir is the latest sign of how far the rot has spread in UK politics | Clive Lewis | The Guardian
When a former Labour deputy leader joins a firm built on surveillance and military targeting, it deepens public cynicism – and democracy depends on trust, says Labour MP Clive Lewis

She first thought him the height of conceit Flamboyantly shirted hedonist Exhibitionism in a lounge bar snug It never left her, he never left her Marriage nor children could button that shirt On the support act’s exit She asked the universe to send her passion And it did #vss365 #passion

"Police are observing for now." The bravery evident when they're manhandling old women at Palestine protests is conspicuous by its absence.

Mentality. You can’t test for that, they crumbled in the moment. That’s a personal thing. Probably more 80 than 70 tbh. But whatever, the abuse they are getting is totally unacceptable.

This is truly heartbreaking. Dolly Parton was an extraordinary person and an irreplaceable champion of the working class. We are a better country because of her.

No one handled a comb like the Fonz Look him up or ask your elders Jeans, boots, white T and a leather Stops in front of a mirror in the hall Hair slicked back with motorcycle oil Flourishing a comb to make a correction Doesn’t follow through You can’t fix perfection Ayyy! #vss365 #comb
No one handled a comb like the Fonz

Look him up or ask your elders 
Jeans, boots, white T and a leather 

Stops in front of a mirror in the hall
Hair slicked back with motorcycle oil

Flourishing a comb to make a correction 
Doesn’t follow through 
As You can’t fix perfection

Hey?!

A true story - #vss365 #matchbox #poetry #cyranovg
As a small boy
I was taken to a neighbours house
An old lady lived there alone 
It had an open fire

My brother threw in a sweet wrapper 
From the mantle 
I picked up an empty matchbox 
Mounted near by 

As I tossed it
The adults pushed past 
To save it from the flames, 
To no avail 

The matchbox had once contained an engagement ring 
Given to the old lady by a man who went to war on a train 
And never returned

#vss365 #Remote
Farflung is where I holiday’d as kid
A day’s travel over land and sea
Along the spectrum of greys to greens    
The back of a beautiful beyond 

A ferocious ocean pulled up to its shores,
A blanket in my tiny fingers
Sung me to sleep 
Tucked in at the edge of the world. 

Now I can fly drive there in hours
 
Now, as word of your death has reaches me old friend 
It feels more remote than ever
