"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.

A fair plan, but never overlook the potential terror of a manic pixie girl coming for your eyes. Tiny is terrifying.
No ****, there we were… there wasn’t an inch inside the redoubt that wasn’t covered in glitter and pastel blood. Dying comrades, wands embedded in there bodies, glitter choking them. The staccato buzz of approaching wings – no matter how many we killed, there were always more. Few of us remain – that terrible day shall forever live in ironically cute infamy.
We shall remember. We shall rebuild. We shall put screens on all the damn windows.
