Local politics

A tiny episode happened this morning that I won't reveal here except to say that when I was younger, this sort of thing would have upset me enough to picket, petition or otherwise raise hell about the injustice of it all. Old and seasoned, I dismiss it as yet another example of a kind of deterioration in the culture I've been witnessing for some time. I have precious little energy in my aging reality and certainly don't plan to spend any chasing windmills. The episode is disappointing but also minor, even silly. I pick my causes extremely carefully these days and this isn't one of them. My sad take on the matter is, What else is new?
