20. This is quite worrying for me on at least two levels.

Maybe more, but I'm choosing not to think more about it tonight, let the meds start working and just turn out the light on today. Literally and figuratively.

So, the two worrying levels. One level is the obvious one - the Dirty Tricks with capital letters. Just an appalling way for an alleged government to behave. A government in an ostensible democracy, at least.

The other level is personal. My "ability", if you can call it that, to be shocked, stunned, surprised, even disgusted is becoming very blunted. As awful as this story is, especially to the people involved, part of my reaction is to shrug and move on..In another year of two of this - God forbid - I probably will do just that.
