I hear you. I live in the city and there are moving picture billboards about the place. It's impossible to not have your attention captured by them and they seem designed to provoke emotional reaction for whatever it is that they are advertising, whether it be cellphone plans or condoms. It feels invasive, somehow, and I starting feeling like I don't want to take a walk when I have to walk past all that crap.

I hope it is a passing phase, with the bad news. The news seems to swing in roundabouts. Sometimes it seems so depressing I just can't take it anymore. Othertimes things seem more positive. Not sure that it is just me - I think they do go through phases of focusing on things that are uplifting, or not so much. I hope all goes well and your advertisements go back to... Pharmaceuticals and belly fat, or whatever.

Bob did a wonderful thing in protecting us from advertisement. Mostly. Babblers were... Really rather different from whoever it is that is driving the internet these days...

Mememe. III. I seem to have forgotten how to interact with people. Mostly. I'm glad to see you here. I'm sorry that you are having a hard time with having your social spaces invaded by bad vibes...
