I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

I did not turn on mac's internet before going to the gym (he only gets 2 hours a night due to grades). I come home, see he has done a chore, turn on his wifi, and find him asleep in a chair. He is so tired all the time, and without visual stimulation actually fell asleep by 6:30. I am not waking him up.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Bombing Syria.

Nauseated with anxiety and sadness. I can't even make any sense of what I've been reading.

Bombing Syria.

Less than 3 months in office. Jesus.

I could argue a good case for intervention in Syria, but under this nightmare I cannot imagine there will be any nuance or good outcome.

Oy!!! I've been heads down with work and then was at the gym. My only internet had pretty much been here. Now I'm afraid to look further afield.

I dunno, striking a military target after Assad performed a chemical attack doesn't seem all that extreme. If Russia was informed, I imagine that the airfield was notified and there probably weren't many causalities, if any. Using cruise missiles minimizes risk to U.S. personnel and removes the chance of an air-to-air altercation with Russian aircraft. This feels like Trump wanted to do something and the military prepared a low-risk option. Not that I'm not concerned about what happens next.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

This feels like Trump saw a convenient distraction from the Russian connection investigation. If he cared about Syrians, we'd be taking in refugees.
