"Don't waste any time mourning. Organize!"
-Joe Hill
My brother texted the family group chat this quote before he went to work today. I'm not in a good place this morning, but we can't lose ourselves to despair. I know I have a lot of anger right now, but getting into whose fault that is won't help anyone.
Dwelling on the people I will never forgive won't help anyone.
I'm not that optimistic, but hope is a choice we can still make. It's a hard one to make this morning, but I'm still going to do my best. We are where we are, and focusing on yesterday won't change that. We can only move forward, and save as many as we can along the way.
There will be a tomorrow because we're going to make sure there's a tomorrow.

…unless Unagi con has something you desperately need in which case it’s better to buy one.
A case of where Lynn needs to call up Jim and go, “My dude, are you currently running a group/message-board titled “Bork Con Sucks?” And are you running flack for the Neo-Nazi you refused to remove from your convention? You know, the one two members of your staff had a restraining order against? The same one another staff member asked to leave your convention?”
And if he says “yes”, we get into asking if he’s still doing it after Lynn had her momentary talk post previous convention (Trae didn’t make this explicitly clear in dialogue).
And if he says “no” she confronts him with the “I’m looking at the posts right this moment, and if it persists Bork Con will have to rethink it’s equipment sharing agreement with UnagiCon”.
You not idea how often this stuff comes up in Florida conventions; not the whole Neo-Nazi thing, but one Con-Runner casting shade at another convention even when they have agreements to share things and play nice.
