A screeching halt, part 2

Published by Brillig under Blogginess

There used to be a different post here. It was a post about my indignation at some of the horrendously inappropriate responses to today’s tragedy at Virginia Tech. I think that perhaps my indignation at those responses led me to… well… respond inappropriately. So, while I stand by what I said in my original post here, I’m removing it for now and tucking it away somewhere safe for future–and more appropriate–times. This wasn’t the moment to bring some of that stuff up.

For tonight, let us mourn with those who mourn and comfort those who stand in need of comfort.

I’m keeping the comments from those of you who already commented here, because what you had to say was absolutely appropriate. Thanks. I have the greatest e-friends.

a screeching halt

Published by Brillig under Blogginess

This blog will come to a screeching halt today. I have nothing funny to say and I can’t find it in my soul to be insightful. I’m horrified by the news and I pray for the victims and their families. Thanks to Jessabean for letting me know. In this bubble I’ve created for myself, who knows how long it would have taken for me to hear.
