i am fascinated by the “believes supermarket petrol stations primarily set the price of petrol but isn’t themselves hugely to the left of every john mcdonnell manifesto“ mentality but doubly so at the moment to express it: have you not put on the news at any point in the last couple of weeks ??lobstereo.bsky.social · source

O Me! what eyes hath loue put in my head, / Which haue no correspondence with true sight. / Or if they haue, where is my iudgment fled, / That censures falsely what they see aright? — Shakespeare
O Me! what eyes hath loue put in my head, Which haue no correspondence with true sight. Or if they haue, where is my iudgment fled, That censures falsely what they see aright? If that be faire whereon my false eyes dote, What meanes the world to say it is not so? If it be not, then loue doth well denote, Loues eye is not so true as all mens: no, How can it? O how can loues eye be true, That is so vext with watching and with teares? No maruaile then though I mistake my view, The sunne it selfe sees not, till heauen cleeres. O cunning loue, with teares thou keepst me blinde, Least eyes well seeing thy foule faults should finde.William Shakespeare, “148”
