"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.

Max is officiating the wedding? Lol. They’d honestly be better off with a monkey, at the very least it’d be less inclined to fling its dung at the bridesmaids.
It’s more or less what we did, though in reverse. We got a JoP wedding early because we were buying a house and then later had the family wedding officiated by a friend. A friend who happened to also be a former Worldcon chair.
My brother got married at the courthouse before he went off to Afganistan, then had a big wedding when he came back, officiated by our grandma.
I legally witnessed one such wedding.
