T-Rex, get it on, I am almost afraid to tell you this is from 1971. Well those were the days
And in 1840? It is universal, timeless, tender

And the lyrics so perfect
A dirty girl…

Get it on
Bang a gong
Get it on

I wonder if SM was thinking about this song when she wrote this perfectly lovely finally at the end of 14 months seduction

And this immediately brought to mine the musical accompaniment of this group T-Rex and the song get it on
I am going to play it now

Finally, in a snowstorm, at his boarding house – they get it on

And further
The four woman were not a murder of crows
They were a distraction of belles

Why are you wearing black, Duchess? Are you planning to be widowed?
One must always be prepared

If it’s Parliament and the yard together?
We take it to the people

But what if it is Whitechapel as well
Corruption has always been where power lies
London especially no matter whether 19th century, 20th or 21st
In America are 21st has seen more corruption than even in the 1890s
A sad sadness we all live with & above is

Quis ut Deus
A haloed man robed, holding a sword and shield

is the traditional battle cry of Archangel Michael
Who is like God?

Does your truncheon strike a different kind of blow? Does your whistle sing a different note?

Not only ICE but our military and our police are now suspect as they were in England in the 1840s

In London there is the West End and the east end and the east end has no protection from the police Thomas detective inspector of Scotland Yard remains a peeler. A cop on the beat not to be trusted.
And so it has been with the poor and the protection which is not for the poor

And in 2026 we have ICE, masked men who pray upon the poor, the not so poor, the not white

Fire in London was the hand of God, superseding every other concern, no matter how dire.

SM knows how to set up a mood

Ecclesiastes says there is nothing new under the sun. The endless search for power pervades every moment of history. But this particular corruption of this particular administration is beyond the pale. And the Supreme Court is truly the handmaiden of Donald Trump

And finally, finally the kiss they both wanted. In the situation normal, he was a common place and she was a lady. And he was a detective, and she was a disruptive. A match made in heaven. The specialty of SM

I wish I had somebody to say fucking hell to
And the nerve to say it

Enter the bare knuckle bastards
That was quite a good series
But it is tiresome to have to rely on rereads to escape Trump, he has forced me to read so many books requiring no intellectual motion over the last 10 years

We all need a place like ‘The Place’
(
If you were looking for a place to live out loud, and you could find it, the place would have you, however you came, whomever you loved

There were actually venues such as interwoven in SM plots that existed in Victorian England, on the sly. Underground, dangerous passed by word-of-mouth. See the bare knuckle bastards

Deep dish scandal
Three businesses (of women’s essential concerns ) hiding secret, revolutionary activities going up in flames, one a month.
It Scotland Yard is behind it there’s someone paying for it
