Well, hell.
Can't even shout, Can't even cry. The Gentlemen are coming by. Looking in windows, knocking on doors. They need to take seven, and they might take yours. Can't call to mom, can't say a word. You're gonna die screaming but you won't be heard.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."
Oh fucking hell.

Richard Adams, who wrote Watership Down, has also died, and there's a tweet going around that almost made me break down.

"The Senate today have voted to make me a god in Palmyra. They'll put a little statue to me in the temple, and people will bring offerings to me, asking me to bring rain or cure their father's gout. Tell me, Livia: if I'm a god, even in Palmyra, how do I cure gout?!" Augustus, "I Claudius"
Seconding, Jesse, Consuela. It sounds like your dad was a great guy and at least he's at peace.

In mordantly black humor, all I can think is "I chose 2016 as the year to get sober?!"
Yet in four days, it will be a year.

You've got a backstory deserving of them.

It's as good a year as any, Strix. You've seen that if you can make it through this year, you can make it through anything.
Suela, I'm so sorry.

It's actually been a really hard year, when you stop and do the math. Eliot would cry, too, if it didn't take him seventy minutes of therapy, two cocktails, and a Sondheim medley before he can experience a human emotion through the haze of his PTSD.
Yet in four days, it will be a year.
Dang, Strix, that is GREAT!
