"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.

Awkward passive aggressive comments at 30 paces!
They need a new poster.
“BorkCon
We punch Nazis”
Any bets on how fast Jim gets nasty?
Judging by how Jim looks right now, it will get Ugly quick. I bet Jim will try some smear campaigns to put a damper on Bork Con. But I think it might backfire too because people at cons don’t like Nazis and I’m sure that incident might come up.

This is probably one of the only instances where passive aggressive comments are better than pretty much anything. Passive aggressiveness if fairly easy to ignore if you’re busy focusing on other things. Outright hostility and smear campaigns would make for a much more trying weekend.
I’m actually surprised Jim is upset at all. Lynn burned the bridge between them by committing assault and battery while working for Jim’s con, then lying to Jim’s face about it.
Was Garner really that effective as con staff that Jim resents Lynn poaching him?
If Jim runs a smear campaign it will be because he’s gotten used to getting his way and hates a challenge to his power. He hasn’t been petty in the time we’ve seen him in the strip and smearing Bork con is definitely petty.
True it would be petty but he has managed to manipulate staffers to side with him and against anyone he opposes. So he could make some attempts to manipulate con goers to not go to Bork Con. But because he right next to Lynn, he’ll probably do something very childish in my opinion because even fully grown adults can act immature sometimes.

Oh this is gonna be good.
