While Paris burns, I discover another kind of hard reality at the Bom Bom bar. #ChasingTheSun
As reported* in the Guardian, the woeful, socially and environmentally suicidal––not to mention corrupt and half-assed––preparations for the Rio Olympics are proceeding apace. This is not isolated, but within a long tradition of short-sighted SNAFU Olympic preparations dating back a century. Three-time Olympian Megan Kalmoe offered an entitled apologetics for the tip-of-the-iceberg "brown water" situation I will row through shit for you, America. To which I commented:
​
"If the athletes banded together and created a consensus declaration that Olympics preparations must be done in a sustainable and financially transparent  way, countries would have no choice but to listen. Then the athletes we admire would have accomplished something for the greater good."

#‎endwriter #‎fabric

As you can see, the #endwriter tag** is now pretty fixed and stable, probably getting a few dozen views daily through Twitter, FB, and journalistic comment sections. The others come and go depending on the topic of a particular post or blog article. #fabric, #AriPark, #Even, and #ChasingTheSun are the three that seem to have evolved. #Cowachunga may come after I reach the halfway point of the Arisugawa Park (oh wait, there's one more) #CloudNovel project.

Speaking of which, the next section of the cloud novel should be coming in a few hours. I am taking time to make sure that each section feels somehow new and complete. I really enjoy spending time with each character, at points in my day between  coffee, tea,  flute, pale pilsen, books, daydreams, and beach jog swims.

*My FB comment on the original article: "Seen from a certain perspective, the Olympics are an excuse for corrupt developers to go in and make land grabs and create white elephant project and "gift" communities for civil servants. Eye opening."

​** Short for #endurancewriter and also representing a group of earth-shaping cloud writers (and multi-media creatives) who will shape future history in the multi-level literary concept EVEN.
