Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
I know people who deal with the universe. JPL and Caltech is on it, Maria. We're going to go kick the universe for you.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

I'm so sorry, Maria. I've looked into the abyss and I'd like to help if I can.

I don't have much else to offer, but if you need an extra hand with restaurant cleanup once the water recedes, I'll be there.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift
He had a 95% chance of being in the fucking clear. We all told him to focus on that. Now it's 100x as hard because he had hope. And he's in the goddamned 5% that's not lucky.
I'm scared. For both of us. What the hell did we ever do to deserve this?

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I'm so sorry, Maria. I don't know what to say.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Nothing. That I can guarantee you. All kinds of shit -- good and bad -- happens to people who don't deserve it.

Nothing at all. Shit just happens.
And yeah, hope can be a nasty bitch. But it is still there. Just requires recalibrating your frame of reference, but takes time to mourn the previous expectations. Let yourself, and him, do that. And you know what? It's ok to fall apart for a while.
