Mass shooting in a grocery store in Arkansas. Nine hit. Casualties unknown at this time.
@BrazenlyLiberal My lovely morbid imagination and anxiety have meant that since I was a teen I've been afraid of minding my own business and getting shot. Like, a little old lady will pull up next to me as I'm walking and I think she's snapped and is going to pull out her dead husband's revolver and pop a cap in my ass. I've had to calm myself down by reminding myself how unrealistic that is. It's becoming so much harder to do.
@holon42 So glad groceries can be delivered. Not that I really feel much safer in my trailer, especially after someone came through with an assault riffle about a year ago, shooting at homes and cars at random. Sigh. Yay, America.
guns😱 that must have been terrifying.
i get my groceries delivered too. gave up my car, and there's naught close by, so it's convenient and more climate friendly —i hope.
i rarely leave the property. quite content about it✌🏽
@holon42 Yeah, that'll be me soon. Joe's already looking at properties nearby, so we can get the trailer out of here. I have to keep reminding him that I don't drive anymore (my movement disorder makes me a hazard), so I have to be kind of close to a city, or I'll be isolated when he goes out of town. I like that isolation though, so we don't have to be too close. Like, if I can rent a car to a place where I get everything I need within a couple of miles, it's all good.
I know what you mean. I don't drive alone at night anymore. It's just too stressful.
@tippitiwichet
i totally get it🙄
i mean, getting groceries? i think once again i prefer bears.
