Sorry -- not a memory I want to return to, either.

Disenchanted as I am with the current crop of politicians -- and kind of pissed off with the party I must vote for to keep the Tories out of my constituency (and, hopefully, help keep them out of government) -- jokes aside, you will take my right to choose between the rock and the hard place from me over my dead body.

Suffrage is a fundamental right, even when I don't much care for the current choices.

Eh. There’s easier ways to disenfranchise people than legal ones.

The largest is China.

But California's the longest, and doesn't even have that much weed.

And? Expand it. Electrify the lines again. Upgrade the trains. It's cheaper then the constant failed attempts to expand highway infrastructure that will never be able to cope with demand.

It's meant to be a slow dawning realisation, we will have to recalibrate.

All cinemas are closed today.

I couldn’t watch Doctor Sleep.

However, I got a few good League games in. I’m going for a walk by the harbor now.

Later on, I will have some Spaghetti, watch Walking Dead, and see if I can wrap up my Elle Fanning drawing.

I’m considering trying to draw a Walking Dead character next...

Who’s the best/most interesting looking character in the show?

I’m considering Daryl
