When did people become unimportant and inconvenient? I despair of this world. I recall reading, some time ago, about someone being goaded from atop a high-rise by people filming on their phones. I struggle with the concept of God and heaven and hell but I sure hope there’s a special place somewhere for this type of human excrement.

Hope all is well with you and yours, Sister xoxo

Romeo – Hahahahahahahahaha. My bad.

Nephew Notwolf – Well, your sister introduced me to those pages but some are more egregious than others. I did enjoy a little exchange with a mean girl named ‘Starlina.’

Janet – SHE DIDN’T JUMP after staying out there all night!!!!!

Sam – Yeah, the girl on the cliff.

Dj – Donald Trump seems like a safe bet actually. I’ll try to focus on him.

I try – not terriby successfully – to balance remembering that bad things happen everywhere and always have with some kind of recognitioin that there can be some kind of importance in knowing at least some of what those bad things are

It can’t be right to wilfully ignore the world – but lord sometimes it’s tempting.
