"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.

She is just about the most adorable drunk ever.
Captain Cute to the rescue!!
This entire arc reminds me of NebrasKon one year, where an attendee (cosplaying in Racoon City riot gear) went into a bank with his fake guns…
Cops were called, guns were verified as fake, he was let go with a warning. Some people just don’t think of the “outside world” or “mundanes” when they do stuff like this.
I remember doing a play once where I was Jesse James (long story). I’d also come down with a cold (which I do whenever I do a play at the same time I’m working a 40-hour week, something about over extending myself) and I’d decided to get myself an orange juice at the bodego next door. In full costume and make up (western outfit, three day growth of (fake) beard and two six guns). The next day I went into the same bodego BEFORE the performance to get the orange juice and the owner said; “That was YOU last night, wasn’t it? Man, I almost kicked your ass out of my store coming in looking like that!”
I can sorta understand it. You’re just doing your thing and don’t think how it looks to other people. Couple years ago, went to see a movie on halloween. As I came out, took a moment to figure why people were looking at me funny. Had forgotten i was in costume.
Con i went ti this weekend had a booth next to the general lee at the entrence selling confederate flags…. ill trade them
