Saturn In Virgo: Amid Market Turmoil, Some Journalists Try to Tone Down Emotion
Outtakes and various other sundries…

yes. disturbingly so. (at least in one instance.) not fun.

I was talking about this with a friend of mine a week or two ago, and yes. I’ve been very carefully choosing my words of late, and I think it’s by far for the better but it’s … well … weird.
