Here's some good news for the Tumblr: [link]
We are about to save two million children.
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Good Luck Strix!
Stay safe and dry, Chicagoistas!
Needed to be said again.
Random thing: Did you all know we have a National Cryptologic Museum? [link]
y'all have probably figured out, but the explosion was far away from me. I do not have any personal connections of people there.
msbelle, I'm glad to hear it! I thought you weren't especially nearby, but I'm definitely glad to have you check in and say so.
What Kate said, msbelle.
Lee, yep. I pass by the sign for it every time I'm on the BW Parkway or Route 32.
I am failing to keep up with all these disasters. Stay safe, peoples!
In Me news, calling the benefits people yesterday seems to have been all I needed to do, I've got a 401k in my name now. I guess I need to figure out what to do with it - roll it over into one with my employer, or maybe start one with my insurance agent (who also does financial services). I hope there's no hurry on that.

OK, I was going to say why didn't my grandfather (20 years in the NSA) ever take me there, but then I saw it only opened in 1993, after they had already moved away.
Thank you for checking in, msbelle. Glad you're out of the chaos.
Saving two million kids is good. Otherwise? Knock it off, universe.
Also, best healing vibes to Strix.
Quick healing vibes for Strix.
Oklahoma state representative uses "Jew me down" on the House floor. Then "apologizes" by saying that Jews are good businessmen. Is this 1955? [link]
Best comment on that story:
I knew there was a time difference between New York and Oklahoma, but I didn’t realize it was 60 years.
