The world is a strange and arbitrary place, one in which the rules can suddenly shift on you, and common, everyday occurrences can leave you scrambling in confusion as you try and go about your day. This past week in the US has certainly been... something, and I fear it will only get worse from here, and those arbitrary rules will continue to shift and swirl into something that will resemble our old way of life in some sort of close but not quite right Stark Trek-esque alternate reality.
