Nothing changes everything.
Everything changes nothing.
We're all about change
for a while then not; times
are tough, then that's enough
of not
are tough, then that's enough
of not
enough. Change nothings
everything. Metal will never
evolve into life,
no
no
Metal however
precious
will ever
will ever
evolve into life.

Money, lifeless, circulates freely but not people.
Debates on immigration over here are particularly toxic at the moment.
Great to see those Charles O'Rear photos again.
