@GreenFlashlight Very unexpected.
I couldn't be sorrier.
@chibichibi My heart aches for your loss. I'm so sorry.
@chibichibi I am so sorry to hear this. It's utterly heartbreaking.
2020 needs an undo button.
Strangers who come up to me while I'm in a store, minding my own business, put their hands on me(on my shoulder) and say "I feel so sorry for you" because I choose to wear a mask in public.
@ZombieGenesis I would be reacting violently.

If that is not legal grounds to rabbitpunch the person in the throat, then it bloody well should be.
In Kentucky that is technically Menacing. You might have a hard time making it stick, though.

Here, it's just regular ol' battery.
Racism isn't Tinkerbell. It doesn't need you to believe in it for it to exist.

I went to U.T.S. it seems a lifetime ago.
I know some people in the bureaucracy. I may be able to help.

@Ganymede I finally got a reply and they finally took my money! And it was half of what I thought it was going to be! It's just... oh, U of T, you never change, you ponderous monstrosity.

I am going to go off on the next non-resident of the greater Seattle area who tries to tell me that the city is a war zone/third world country.
While it lasted, the CHOP/CHAZ was a 6 block occupied zone in an 80 square mile urban sprawl.
I could drive into downtown Seattle this minute, take photos standing in various places, and show evidence that it's just fine.

NUH UH.
I played The Last of Us 2. I know better!
Sad/happy. Snappy? But it really hit me that I just have two more weekends until Eldest leaves for college. Excited for him but I'm going to miss him a lot (and have already decided I will limit myself to me-initiated text once a week unless he specifically asks for more!)
We went from record breaking historic heat and it raining heated ash while the sky was covered in a thick cloud of smoke to recording breaking historic colds for this time of year with it snowing and freezing in 24 hours.
My plants are mostly not to going make it! I tried to wrap up tomatoes plants in blankets which fell ontop of the plants along with the cages from the weight of snow!
2020, wtf!
@kk Perhaps its time to remind people that this movie was set in 2020 and we still got a couple months left.
So my state is on fire as well. Gallery of images I've snagged from a few places below. None are taken by me.
