"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 feel the urge to make a multiplane camera joke, but I can’t come up with one.
I like playing with multiple layers of depth and trying to mimic different types of camera effects. i do it a lot more often in Crosarth
It’s definitely an appropriate effect for an anime con, seeing as how, in the pre-digital age, multiplane shots were far more common in TV anime than in American TV animation (I’m working on Otakon’s Classic Track right now, so this sort of thing is very much at the forefront of my thoughts 😉 )
Also – the jokes,
“Ruth seems out of her depth”
“Sometimes it takes a minute for things to become clear”
“Barnes would be a great staffer if he could just focus”
Hey look it’s Harry
‘Not much bad can happen right now.’ …really, why does anyone ever say anything like that? It’s like taunting the Universe.
Pre-reg is kind of always the stress-free shift, for us. We know no matter how bad it might go, it’s still pushing through people so much faster than On-site.
..especially this year, when the reg computers had grand fail. From one line of code. For a facebook like button we forgot to pull.
Not my department anymore!

You just had to say it, Ruth…
