Very much so, and thank you. I was spared all the direct trauma because I don’t live on that side, but it’s still hard knowing some friends are gone forever, and others are trying to rebuild something with what help we can manage while all the official action takes place in the burn zone. I don’t even keep up with local news right now because it’s all stressful and there’s little to nothing I can do about most of it, and the comments are filled with conspiracy idiots pushing ridiculous theories that have zero evidence, just really questionable nonsense. There are plenty of legitimate concerns without branching into Jewish space laser territory, but here we are. The aloha here was already at an all time low after the pandemic and now it’s just… idk. If only the water flowed as well as the projection and insanity. I hoped people were better than this.
