I have thoughts about the big news last night that I’m not sure exactly how to express. There was a moment of relief, but I can’t say quite what I was being relieved of.

Followed by disgust at the pandering and celebration.

Followed by fear of the renewed group-mind sense of foreboding about the next shoe to fall. (If everyone is thinking it, are we manifesting it?)

I thought immediately of losing Michael Green. And missed him terribly. This doesn’t make his death any less awful. (Casualty shouldn’t have the word casual in it. That’s horrid.)

What really changed after the news last night? Did anything?
