Yikes. Reports of multiple shootings at the Capital Gazette newspaper in Annapolis.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Oh, fuck.
No official word on casualties but a reporter there tweeted that at least some people are dead.
Official confirmation of fatalities now.
Dammit, I was coming over here to share a dumb problem. Well, I'm going to anyway: I have been invited to tour a construction site tomorrow. You have to wear heavy pants and boots. It's going to be hot out tomorrow, and I may end up being too busy to go on the tour anyway. Should I just plan not to go, or should I risk being hot for no reason?
Plan to not go. Unless you are really interested in seeing the site, but it doesn't sound like you are.
I don't know how to react to shootings anymore. I'm just exhausted.
I am interested! But probably not tomorrow, I think you are right. Phew.

This one is really getting to me. I don't want to speculate before there's some real information, but I think everybody suspects the motive.
Jesse, can you wear regular work clothes, but bring boots and pants to change into should you decide to go?
I'm on the exhausted bench.
Y'all, I hate this. I've been an activist all my life. When I couldn't do things physically, I wrote, and I contacted people, I argued and encouraged, drove people to the polls, made signs, contributed.
I know this has been their plan since inauguration night, and I hate it's succeeded with me, but I just... I'm worn out. I've got no more reserves of outrage and...just rage. I'm hoping this hiatus I'm trying to take will help top up my reserve tank, because I really really hate feeling both apathetic and impotent to withstand and work for change.
Sorry. Barriers are falling, too.
Jesse, can you wear regular work clothes, but bring boots and pants to change into should you decide to go?
I could, but that seems extra not-worth it. There will be another opportunity!
