And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I'm so sorry, meara.

I’m so sorry, meara.

There’s no right or wrong way to do this.

My condolences to you and your family, meara.

Thanks y’all. A few hours later, it still feels weird and also unreal. But then my mom passed two years ago and that still feels unreal sometimes (because I hadn’t lived in the same timezone as her in like 20 years so…surely I just haven’t called recently?)

Our wings are not tired.

You were your father's daughter your entire life, this is a couple of days. You'll do the things you need to do and all the decisions you make are the correct ones.

Very true. I'm so sorry, meara.

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

{{{meara}}} It is super weird that the world just keeps happening

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

Condolences, meara. It's always sudden.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

I'm so sorry, meara.

"already on the kiss-cam with Karl Marx"-

My condolences, Meara. And I'd say don't feel bad that you have to do things today. I could picture that, when it happens with my father that I might not know for a while...we're kind of not talking.(We had Divorce Christmas, though, but months go by routinely.)
