My office is closed, and the City of Cambridge woke me up to tell me to stay inside. Jesus. I said last night I didn't want to go to work, but this was NOT what I meant. (Also, personal crisis: I only have two cigarettes in the house! I want them both right now.)
Could just be a hoax, though. I fake some headaches, everyone gets used to poor helpless Spike. Then one day, no warning, I snap a spine, bend a head back, drain 'em dry. Brilliant.

Yeah, the name of the deceased suspect has been released.

Chechnya? I would not have guessed that in the US. Of course, it might not be all nationalism-crazy, just plain crazy.

I love NPR for many things. Breaking news is not one of them.

I think they are doing a pretty good job on NPR!

I'm listening to local news, which is getting super-local with where the cops are.

Yeah, hell of a wakeup here. The MBTA is totally shut down. No order to stay inside here in Somerville.
My roommate probably knows the MIT officer -- it's a small force so she's interacted whenever there's a library problem that they have to come out for.

Also, my mother just pointed out that we went by MIT at about 10:30 last night. So that explains the emergency vehicles we kept pulling over for.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Please, please, stay safe, people.
USA Today is reporting that the at-large suspect is 19, graduated from a Cambridge high school in 2011, and the younger brother of the suspect who died. Nineteen. A high school wrestler. Just a stupid, childish, stupid kid, who murdered another kid and two other people and blew limbs off another hundred or so. Fucking hell.
