students, curious onlookers
until someone handed them
a sign and a crisp $20 bill
so they joined the festivities
and chanted the catchy phrases
and glared at the men in blue
who seemed cautiously amused
by such a ragtag ensemble
of suburban undergrads
who had paused on their way
to pizza and pitchers of golden
lager at a nearby pub:
Storm the Bastille,
one shouted, Down with
Tyrants, Start the Revolution,
raising his beer koozie
in a solemn toast, adding,
I should like to be
in the gutter by nightfall.

This is my little protest of the current issue affecting Flickr users. This week I noticed I was not seeing all of my contacts' recent uploads, nor were they seeing mine. I notified Flickr staff who said it is a known problem and the engineers are working on a long-term fix. They also said they didn't know how long it would take. Good grief, sharing photos is the heart and soul of Flickr!
They were able to "rebuild" my Activity Feed so it is currently showing my contacts' uploads. Fingers crossed it stays that way and they can fix the site-wide problem ASAP.
ETA: I'm still not getting all of the new uploads in my Activity Feed. I'm having to go look individually. : (

Violinist and music student Arshak Makichyan, born in Armenia, has been an FFF individual protester since the end of 2019.
With his 'school strike for climate' he is to Russia what Greta Thunberg is to Sweden.
He started it when he was detained for 6 days after returning from the 2019 UN Climate Change Conference (COP25) in Madrid.
