Part 1 - Prologue
It is a story of two minds' colliding.
And no matter how it ends - the outcome will be the same - the world will collapse.

I had on my "To Do" list writing an essay on the myopia of MAGA. All of the powers taken by & lunacy spouted by Trump eventually from a President that MAGA does not like. Even down to the craziness of SCOTUS granting broad immunity for the official acts of a sitting president and doing so even after the acknowledgement that this would enable the President to order the assassination of an opponent.
Dan Carlin beat me to it and did a great job.
Thanks Dan!

Common sense is genius dress in its working clothes.
-- Ralph Waldo Emerson
I have a theory that too much learning unbalances the mind. So much effort goes into squeezing in knowledge that there isn't enough room left over for common sense.
-- Iain Pears
“That the media chooses nevertheless to focus on young men illustrates the male gaze that continues to dominate society, which not only means that whatever men do or think is deemed inherently important and worthy of both academic and #political #attention, but also sets men as the norm.
This ends up strengthening the #FarRight’s political prospects: given that #men are the norm, what they supposedly do or think is deemed “normal”, which means that all #politicians should come up with “#commonsense” #policies to cater to them.”

Neither Simple, nor Intelligent parking system for disabled drivers.
So, you park, get into your wheelchair, wheel yourself 100m to the building where the scanner is (inside the Medical Centre), scan your badge, wheel yourself 100m back to the car, return the badge, wheel yourself 100m back to the Medical Centre for your appointment.
Could it be ANY more disabled unfriendly?
