Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Wow, the Florida Marlins really do ruin everything.

Our wings are not tired.

So nice to read, Hec.

Hey. New board.

Kids activity:

GoNoodle is good. We have a Nintendo Switch, and we use it a lot to play Just Dance, which is great. There are other ways to play Just Dance too (even like Apple TV, holding a phone) so maybe look into that if you don't want a switch or can't find one - they are out of stock a lot of places. Matilda likes "how to do _______ dance" videos on YouTube.

Absolutely insane. I haven't really read any details, but you would think they had the $$ to safeguard the team and staff, and yet. 14 of them infected. Crazy.

My SIL told DH that 177 of her fellow MTA employees have died with Covid, so far, that they know about.

Now tagless for your comfort.

my brother is a lost cause. He gets more insane by the day. His health is very poor and his memory pretty awful at this point so my sisters are hoping he forgets that he swore off baseball.

Laura, my DH said he'd quit watching if the National League instituted the designated hitter and yet, here were are. Still watching. And he was happy as a cat who got the cream with the baseball we're getting.

Although, THANKS A LOT MARLINS!

Actually, though, there's no way we should be having sports at this point. The best sports opening plan for COVID is Roller Derby and nobody listens to roller derby.

We are still waiting for whether our schools will open in six weeks. I can't stand the waiting.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Also she is absolutely indignant that she has earned no shows and no treats so far today.

In her defense, that describes how I spend most of my days.

14 of them infected. Crazy.

Four more have now tested positive.

Who could have guessed that Covid-19 passes most virulently through butt patting?

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".

Buffistas, may I ask for some unspecified~ma for the next month or so? I started rolling something tonight (well, the email was sent tonight, the plan initiated six weeks ago), I have zero idea how it will turn out and I do not have any spoons until mid August to handle it if it'll turn big and ugly. And it may turn big and ugly.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Something~ma, Shir. Best of luck.
