Wow, you've really mastered the power of positive giving-up.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

I’m sorry, msbelle.

I’m glad the California coast cohort is doing ok.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Always Anti-fascist!

Timelies! Not much to say yet, but I did just write up a ramble about some of the odd things I've been watching.(Still nothing to write fanfiction about, I don't think. I might be done with that.)

I’ve been trying to do work, but I had some stuff taken off my plate, which is great, except now I’m paralyzed by having fewer urgent tasks? Ugh.

Oh, msbelle, I'm so sorry.

Hi friends. I'm still here, and alive and OK as can be with everything that's going on and is so heartbreaking and soul crushing. I'm typing from here [link] which is a very nice place if one wants to remind herself of the nicer parts of humanity. I'm not sure if you hear this in the news, but there are a lot of protests everyday on a wide range of issues (though all war/government related). To the point where I'm checking the news every time I have to go from a to b which roads are closed now. The people, how should I say it, really don't like this government. I join the protests when I can.

Anyhows. Remember my US trip this spring? It's starting to take form. More details in the Google doc in my profile, and I'd be happy to hear potential dates/suggestions from you so that I can arrange things (places, attractions, where I'm staying) accordingly.

I love you all.

Our wings are not tired

I'm down in Irvine to teach today, then it's back across LA to keep working on other projects. I'm run down and feel like I can't get ahead of anything, but I'm just getting up each day and taking it on as I can.

Shir, glad to hear you are still doing OK. That's exciting to hear about your US trip shaping up. I hope we get to see you!

Shir looks like you’re maybe set for Seattle but let me know if not, I have a guest room!

{{ND}} Likewise. I'd be very happy to see you and Pix again.

I'm just getting up each day and taking it on as I can.

Very relatable for completly different reasons. Hang in there. Today I was too angry at my government in order to concentrate at my work for about two hours.
