Thank you for sharing the story, Allyson.
I'd rather stay home and watch television. It's often funnier than killing stuff.

Allyson, you did great under horrible, impossible circumstances. Thank you for giving us that report.
Hugs to everyone. I wish I was anywhere near LA to help.
I wish a lot of things.

I feel I have so little to say. The words aren't coming yet, and so many others are wording better than I can right now.
Look out for each other and take care of yourselves, and love those around you.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear
Allyson, I don't think anyone is ever qualified to make that call.

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
So much love to you, Allyson, and Paula, Kristen, and Burrell. You were in no way inadequate yesterday. You performed a great service to ita and her family. One that is truly appreciated.

Our wings are not tired.
Thank you Allyson. I know how painful it is to type it all out, but it helps to know.
All of you, please take care of yourselves. Grief takes a toll in so many ways.

Guys, let us know if we want an ita thread. I think for now, we're OK in Natter, but we'll probably want something in the coming days.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Thank you so much, Allyson. And Kristen and Paula and Burrell and Lori and Kat. I'm so sorry it had to be you, but so glad that it could be.
Ah fuck. Now I start crying. And I have to go into a meeting.
