Morning - hope you find today's OT thought provoking.
farewell to this long-lived and loved community of friends and teachers who have contributed to so many facets of my personal growth and understanding. I’m sure I will continue to read and listen to the evening blues, as well as other essays, and continue to also be inspired by the photography, music and humour here. But for now I will enjoy a period of cosy hibernation. Cheers all

I keep wanting to connect the dots with Trump, the real estate mogul and his principal capos Witkoff, another RE mogul, and Kushner, a wanna be RE developer of the future Gaza Riviera. Clearing the land of "entanglements" is the first negotiation, probably with Israeli oil companies.
It's all about making "deals".
