Well shittles. Today’s delivery is not settling well. Ordered local but online and while SNO’s stars hit the mark, the batik wheels fell flatter than anticipated. Also greener. It has a spectral Fibonacci charm, but it is not the binding for Basketcase. Schnikes.
The solid navy is closest but the tone is still off and the weave is thin but stiff. I don’t like it. Currently wishing I had bought a bolt of the navy Fleurish when I had the chance.

There are persons too who see not the full extent of evil that threatens them; they solace themselves with hopes that the enemy, if they succeed, will be merciful. It is the madness of folly to expect mercy from those who have refused to do justice; and even mercy, where conquest is the object, is only a trick of war: The cunning of the fox is as murderous as the violence of the wolfe; and we ought to guard equally against both.
~Thomas Paine, The American Crisis I, December 19, 1776.
