Day of the Two Daughters, 15th of Summer, 525 M.E. (Electra): I see in the news (inked characters fast fading on the frayed breaking paper) that the National Guard has been summoned to L.A. to counter protests against the cruel and unusual tactics of ICE agents there, and Marines have been stationed to Camp Pendleton south of L.A. and placed on "high alert." Democratic members of Congress from California and New York say that they were blocked from entering federal detention facilities over the weekend while trying to inspect conditions and check on individuals arrested during immigration raids and related protests. Greta Thunberg has been detained by Israeli forces. Sly Stone passed away last night. Russia launched  almost 500 drones and missiles at Ukraine, the largest drone assault of the war, as it tries to overwhelm Ukraine’s air defenses, which shot down most of the previous weapons. The past is over. Impermanence is swift.
