I don't think they realize that they stick out like a cockroach perched on a bowl of cherries.

I really don't think that trolls popping in here know that they're very much thought of as sheep in wolf's clothing.

There's a difference between sharing your point of view and continuously schooling someone as if they're clueless or as though only YOU know anything . One is positive, it's interesting and productive. The other is just intensely annoying.

The republican party trying to sue Google because of SPAM filters is hilarious. We just aren't that into you GOP. We filtered your hateful rhetoric and begging for money OUT.

“Ten years. A lifetime and a blink,” she wrote. “Ana Grace, we used to wait for you to come home. Now you wait for us. Hold on, little one. Hold on.”

Like some other victims' relatives, Jennifer Hubbard saw the memorial in a private appointment before this weekend. Her daughter, Catherine Violet Hubbard, 6, was one of the children who died in the shooting on Dec. 14, 2012.

“It took my breath away in the sense that to see Catherine’s name and to see what has been created in honor of those that lost ... the families, those that survived — they’ve lost their innocence," she said. "And the community. We all suffered because of Dec. 14.

Sandy Hook memorial opens nearly 10 years after 26 killed

A memorial to the 20 first graders and six educators killed in the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting opened to the public Sunday, a month before the 10th anniversary of the massacre.

Morning thought:

It's not that evil isn't real or can be disregarded; it's that when you orient your entire life to opposing what you think of as evil, you define yourself by it, and you have no meaning left in your life when that thing you oppose is gone.

Any worthwhile kind of Good should be able to offer a sustainable, meaningful kind of life even in the absence of evil.

Everyone is surprised there wasn't violence at polls or ballot counting centers.

I'm not.

Vampires are predators and parasites. They kill whomever they feed on. They don't respect a human's right to live. But no vampire wants all their prey to just suddenly all die and be gone. The object isn't to just kill people. Vampires know that if you kill all of the people, then vampires will also die. This makes vampires, who are monsters, better than the average gazillionaire.

I get the feeling that nobody has ever explained to the uber-rich that if they get what they think they want, everything they actually want will evaporate.
