imagine if all these historical figures I’m studying knew that after all the work they did in life to preserve their legacy, the endless march of history has led up to some guy (me) flaming them as characters in my novels

Cursed Concert

I went to a Voltiare concert, and was in the disablity area with the seats. I was sitting next to my mom, who was in her wheelchair. This was a hotel concert, these are hotel chairs. Someone comes down the row in front of me.

I have one leg over the other, crossed at the knee. This person comes down the row and falls. Falls into the chair. The chair, weighed down with large human, falls backward. It lands on my knee.

Ma and I have to leave the concert early, to check my injury in the light. I cannot stand, collasp when i put my own weight on my leg. Sit on ma's lap so she can take me out of the ballroom.

And it sucks because I love Voltaire and i wanted to stay, to enjoy the concert. I am so disapointed.

It could've been avoided if other people were more careful of their surroundings.

If you go to an event please don't rough house around the disablity seating area.

It was written before the current…

Republican should read Voltaire

Because this obsession with states rights and lack of taxation is just a new version of the holy roman empire
