February 27 is National Retro Day: A day to celebrate nostalgia and past fashions/trends.
However...
*climbing onto soapbox*
Folks,
We will NOT turn back the hands of the clock.
We cannot recreate any society that once was.
I personally refuse to live in a backwards-facing political climate.
The present is current; the past is GONE.
Pull up your adult-ass britches and jump into the NOW.
Thank you.
*jumps off soapbox, hurts knee*
Oof.
Therefore, although old-timey styles and events are fun, let's get retro in another way.
Baby pics of MOI!
Okay, the hair looks the same, and I think I still have the pearls.
Pensive, solemn, quiet...nope, I grew outta that, and am wild, loud, and colorful!
The modern version that you all know and love, at a peaceful demonstration in 2025.
The sign I showed to passersby read: "The Whole World is Watching!"
TGIF, y'all.
😹😹😹

ReplyDeleteAmen, that was some first rate use of a soap box.
ReplyDeleteAs I once heard someone say, if you wore hot pants the first time they came around, please do not wear them again!
