Thanks, Albert.

Sacrifice and its connotations made me remember wrestling with theology. The ghastly consequences of transactionalism  like that make me shudder, as did your words. Isolation that cuts us off from one another hurts more with every passing day, as we have been banished, exiled from our lives as we knew them. 

It truly is a matter of survival, with little help from leaders who lead lambs to slaughter with no compunction. Thanks, Parker.  

Written in the wrong place omg

Australia: Snakes crash through roof of house

A man in Australia got a shock when he returned home to find two snakes had crashed through his ceiling and were slithering around his Queensland house.

David Tate found one snake in his bedroom and another in the living room on Monday. They weighed 22kg (3.4 stone) between them.

Yikes! I hope they practiced social distancing.

Oh my brother, would that I could draw you close to ease your banishment. We are social creatures the need for contact hardwired. We need to feel life through another's touch. Is it any wonder that the number of those experiencing depression has exploded?

Sad that so often sacrifice is expected of others not the ones who deem it necessary.

Thank you as always for your words.

I wish you could too, dugh.   We are all learning the hard way  about how we are hardwired. And yes, some should sacrifice their need for power for the sake of people who look to them for help. It's hard not to feel alone in this. Thanks, bro.

Sending you a virtual hug - I know it's not the same but -  know it is sent with kindness and love.  Take care of yourself.

Thanks, David. It helps... you take care of yourself as well.

Thanks, Geron. You be safe too.  

I can feel every word.

But I refuse to sacrifice hope, yet, while I'm standing in front of my classes wearing a mask.

Be safe, Gary.

Thanks, Adi. I have no hope for some of the world's current leadership, But I do hope for change, and a righting of our course. There is so much entrenchment , though, my faith in humans is weak. You be safe too.   

No words of wisdom from me this time since Gary has said them all.  Sigh....

Thank you, dear friend. We've seen much in our lifetimes, haven't we? But this... this is a travesty of epic proportions and epic stupidity.

My heart hurts for your grief but you express it so fucking beautifully.
