Yeah, shit is really hitting the fan now that it looks like NOLA's electrical infrastructure took a massive hit.

I don't know if it'll even be possible, but I might have to get @anthracite out of there, hole up with her in Ohio for a while, and find someone to feed any remaining cats. (We have at least two strong maybes, which is a relief.)

I suspect I will not be able to fly home on Thursday. If I do, I have no idea how I'll even do my job.

We're definitely gonna need your assistance soon.

@zebratron2084 @anthracite Just spread the word when you decide on how to start gathering funds, y'all. 💙

@LexYeen @anthracite Yup, much appreciated hun. *hug* Right now I suspect what I'll really need between now and Thursday is truly heroic levels of emotional support and practical advice on how the hell to solve the increasingly convoluted logic puzzle of how to inspect and clean up our house, get someone feeding any surviving cats, and either get @anthracite safely to Ohio or both of us somewhere with power so I can keep doing my day job...
