i look forward to getting home
after a day of fun and laughter.
things get a weird kind of serious
as i watch reel after reel of supposed
news. until i realise I'm watching
a clown show and it's all back to
hijinks and japes. the clowns they
just keep on coming, they tickle
me with their stupidity.
long may they continue to reign.

Today’s Daily Stoic poem:

Accepting What Is

The event cannot be changed
But your opinion surely can
It’s the art of acquiescence
Amor fati makes us human
