This might be the first loss for a lot of people... so keep in mind it's sometimes worse later, like in a car accident. It hits you later. So be there for your friends for the next few days/weeks as people process what's going on.

Hugs to all of you today.

Everyone.

You're all precious and loved.

I shut down my bots. Would be nice if y'all awooligans could keep shitposting off the public timeline for a while, too, thank you

The world is better with you in it (yes, even you), and it would be worse without you (yes, even you).

This is an article of faith for me, and I'm not trying to guilt you into agreeing, I'm just standing up to (hopefully) be counted as someone who believes it.

Hey friends. I see some anxiety about typing out hugs and other physical comforting actions being performive and stuff. It's not. We gotta make do with the format we have to comfort one another.

Hang in there, friends.

I want the ep where some villain blows up the school but everyone makes it out and the Salem Center Islamic Center shows up with dinner and volunteer trauma counselors.

Basically, I want a show about kindness and heroism, not a bleak thirty seconds into the future reflection of the worst of the world outside my window.

sadness and support 

I have little to offer anyone beyond being absolutely more-than-willing to listen to whatever you have to say. I am not an expert at comfort and consolation, I do not have answers, but if you need someone to cry or vent at, I will gladly volunteer. I will acknowledge, I will respond, and I will not try to force on you solutions you did not ask for.

I may not truly -know- you--nor you know me--but I love you all the same for who you are. Take care of yourselves.

suicide prevention 

it is well documented that a suicide in a close-knit community can "ripple," especially in the painful, difficult times immediately afterwards. please, please take care of each other.

NOW IF A CUSTOMER CHOKES ON A DOUGHNUT
that ain't right
THE LAW REQUIRES THAT YOU ASSIST THEM

Pooka is yelling at us to go to sleep already, so... goodnight awoo. <3 to all of you.

I don't use the word "hero" very often. But you, customer support employee, are the greatest hero in American history. twitter.com/TwitterGov/status/
