I love that idea, Sophia!!! I would have loooooved that when I was Matilda's age.

Poor Matilda. Hope she can find somewhere cool to go, or something to earn some spending money (mother’s helper for the many folks who also are missing out on summer camps and plans this summer?)

Oof, glad ltc is OK. Ouch.
David, that is a really crappy, bum deal for Matilda. I'm sorry.

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights
Wow, having caught up on the last couple days' posts, I'm afraid if I hand out all the hugs and ~ma I'd like to I'd leave something out. But I'm definitely sitting here sending out all kinds of love and hope for better things Buffistas-ward.
In Seattle, last I heard they're offering students/families the option of going back to in-person schooling on 4/19. We're leaving it up to Alex to decide what he wants to do, because he'll be 17 next week (eek!) and is old enough to make such choices, but given that he goes to an alternative high school halfway across town and has to take two city buses each way to get there, we've expressed our preference to wait till we're all vaccinated, which probably wouldn't be till nearly the end of the school year for him, if not later.

What is even happening?
I'm glad ltc is okay, sj. That must be painful, though.
I'm so sorry to hear about Matilda, Hec. The past year or so has been so rough on her. It's well past time things turned in her favor.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Hugs for all Buffistas and Buffista-adjacent folk who want/need them.
Me, I'm tired of matzo and tired in general.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
My parents' county has made vaccinations available to everyone 16 and up. I heard from my VP of People. That continues to be weird.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
VP of People is weird. I want there to be a VP of Animals and a VP of Inanimate Objects.

I favor having a VP of Places and VP of Things, then they could all have a theme song: [link]
