Timelies all!
Continually depressed by the news.
Ben: I didn't ask for any of this. I just want to be normal. Gronx: I wanted to be an underwear model. We play the hand we're dealt.

Natter 77: I miss my friends. I miss my enemies. I miss the people I talked to every day.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
One thing people can do if there are guns in your family is ask for the guns in the event of family dying/downsizing and then have the guns destroyed.
Not likely to prevent the AR15 murders, but might prevent a suicide or domestic murder.

I can’t even with these shootings. I hate our political system.
Also, I have an event starting tomorrow that is usually the highlight of my year (dance convention in SF). It hasn’t happened for a couple years, obviously. And now a friend i hung out with (outdoors, but nearby and some in and out of the house for drinks) on Saturday told me she was v sick with covid Sunday and Monday. Why she waited until today to tell me I don’t know. And now I’m super paranoid that tomorrow when I have to show a negative test to register for the event I’ll pop a positive and not be able to go or have to just hole up in my hotel room all weekend while everyone else has fun? Fingers crossed it’s not so. I did test negative earlier today but who knows.

I've seen a real surge in people getting COVID around the Bay Area lately. I'd be cautious, especially with a group event where people are coming from all over.

Yes it’s definitely a huge surge—the friend with covid is the one taking care of my dog! …probably it will be more her partner, and they have a big yard and our dogs love playing together. But I tested negative again this morning so am at the airport masked up and on my way!

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

Our wings are not tired.
Have a wonderfully fun and safe trip, meara. No licking doorknobs!!

Coding and Sleeping
Gallup polling and election results indicate there is no political pressure for more gun regulation. Makes it hard to see how anything can ever change.

Tested negative yesterday, flew to Virginia. Tested positive this morning. Fuck everything.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Goddamnit, Dana. I'm sorry. May it be mild and behind you soon.
