It's just too fucking heavy. The weird thing is that I'm not normalizing. I'm not recovering. The shock just keeps running deeper. The stunned feeling grows more pervasive. I can't even say I feel anything in particular, just shaken. I didn't actually start to write to share any of this. What originally made me think to post was Red Geisha's post about donating blood. From what I hear, lines are running out the door at most blood centers. Give someone a call and see if they can even take you today but if you don't go today or this week still go. Blood supplies will be depleted for months after this. I don't know what else we can do. I fear the aftermath more than anything. There will be some serious scapegoating. Rest assured, the U.S. is gonna bomb the shit out of somebody real soon and they'll call it healing. It probably won't even be the right people. The racist propaganda is already starting; the news is showing footage of Palestinians celebrating on the West Bank. How does that help? -Rinaldo _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com/intl.asp +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister@missprint.org.
