"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.
I’m picturing 10 more minutes of intermittent “But what if” “No.” 40 seconds later: “Yeah but what” “NO.” 2 minutes later:”Wait” “NO!” She’s demanding a lot here!
The internal explanation can also include the reasoning that they aren’t worth our time. We’re too busy planning a successful convention.
She may be demanding a lot, but this is the only good path to take. Honestly, one I would as well.
The best response to someone who is trying to game you is to not play the game. At least, not play the game by the rules they set.
While I agree playing his game is a bad idea, it seems there should be -some- official response.
Absolutely not.
Making any kind of public response is giving it credence. It actually makes it WORSE when you acknowledge crazy shit because its the crazy shit that’s looking for attention.
If it were something that Borkcon did that was fucked up, and them admitting fault, that is one thing. But this? This is another person making a seemly ‘private’ e-mail public and editing it for his own game in the hopes that he can bring down another con through a drawn out negative PR game.
No matter what you do publically it puts you in a no-win scenero, not even recovering PR. What Jim did is genius sure, but it wasn’t smart.
Because people figure this out eventually when the cards are play correctly, which is what Lynn is going for.
