"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.

Well then. Jim’s level of unprofessionalism just keeps getting worse, doesn’t it? Also, I’m kinda trying to wrap my head around an alliance between Terrence and Jim… I mean, wow.
I’m disappointed in Jim. Not entirely surprised because people used to power can get awfully petty when they are challenged and lose, but disappointed nonetheless. I liked his low-key style and this isn’t low-key. Sure he’s a calculating social manipulator. Running an organization like Unagi Con, where they hold elections for con posts, that’s practically a job requirement.
Running a FB group and putting numerous posts into it, is time he isn’t spending on Unagi con.
Plus, how hard is it to set up a fake FB account to post from? That’s just lazy.
I’ve seen in happen in real life.
Only asking because I’ve seen this come up IRL for a con… is this anti-Bork Con FB group using the Bork Con logo? Because I’m assuming that Bork Con has their logo trademarked, which means this FB group can’t legally use it without authorization…
Does Jim realize that Terrance is the guy who showed up at UnagiCon in a Nazi uniform? Because even if he’s really, really pissed at Lynn, someone with enough social smarts to stay Unagicon Chair for a decade ought to have given some thought to the potential blowback that could come from palling around with a guy that likes to dress up as a Nazi. Because that’s bound to come out at some point.
I think it’s been established that Jim doesn’t have a problem with that.
Honest to God, I thought it was going to be Gardner and Terrance ganging up on Bork Con. Who knew?
