The news is so heartbreaking.
Natter 76: Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Foaminess
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.
The current president tweeted something stupid about how if the synagogue had had appropriate defenses this wouldn't have happened, but I am willing to bet money that the synagogue had security, probably off-duty cops, because every synagogue I know well always has security for services for exactly this fucking reason.
oh Vonnie. hard to be so close. be safe.
Vonnie, I'm so sorry take care.
Thanks, all. The shooter is in custody -- he sustained injuries and was sent to one of the local trauma hospitals. Ugh, can you imagine being assigned to provide medical care to that piece of shit.
I think I'll try to venture out rather than tying myself into knots staying inside.
Timelies all!
Ugh people...
Got some errands done. Mr. S got a haircut, Gary did early voting and I got passport photos taken. Really don't like the picture, as the "neutral expression" makes it look like a mug shot.
Vonnie, all love and comfort to you. It's good to see your pixels; I just wish it weren't for such an awful reason.
Laura, I fully support you in stepping away and getting some air.
All of you are very much in my thoughts. I wish I had more and better words to say.
Thanks for checking in, Vonnie.
I had planned to Get Stuff Done today but the stabbing pain in my right eye says no to all that.
Spent some time swimming and reading outside to clear my head.
{{Vonnie and neighbors}} Sending all kinds of ~ma and peaceful thoughts your way.
I'm sorry, Vonnie. I don't know what to say or think anymore. Nothing is useful.
I did read the latest Strike book, if you have. Or do you wait for the series? If you want to talk about it, feel free to ping me in Literary or email or any other platform.
