You take care, too. Hope you sleep well. Try not to worry too much. Peace.

I am so sorry @ralph_vonholst. I’ve been away from the computer for most of the evening and just now decided to check the Hive before heading in to bed. Please know you have my deepest care for your daughter and for you.

Maybe we could rent a royal family, and they could step in like someone who writes a eulogy based on quickly done family interviews and does a pretty creditable job. It wouldn’t take much to be an improvement. I thought she did a nice job, seriously, although Angela Merkel did a truly moving one. We don’t need a monarchy. We just need to know someone understands.

I only thought I missed Barack Obama before.

I’m here for ya my friend

@shade
Thank you both so much. She’s tough. You guys stay well. You too, @darrtown.

rucleare · April 6, 2020, 3:50am

Hey @darrtown. Can I hit you up for a face mask, please? (I can pay you with hydroxychloroquine.) LOL

rucleare · April 6, 2020, 3:54am

I mean. It hits me in the gut every time there is another moment of degradation of the role and function of that Office.

Ralph,

I always enjoy your comments and ways of seeing the world. I wish the very best for your daughter. As a citizen of Seattle myself, please take comfort in knowing she’s among a group of conscientious, responsible, intelligent and compassionate people who respect and honor science, common sense and the wholeness and well being of us all.

I am generally a forgiving man. trump has used it all up. None left. None.
I will hate him and his family for the rest of my life. Blood all over this man. not just his hands. And he cares nothing for us. No empathy… none. Not one word of caring for this who are sick, Not one word for families who have lost loved ones … NOT ONE FUCKING WORD. Coldest bastard who has ever lived.

darrtown · April 6, 2020, 4:04am

I am with you buddy. Keep me apprised if you feel you should. PM back channel is always open.

darrtown · April 6, 2020, 4:07am

My dog has become very possessive of that mask once she understood what it was for.
I have 4 dust masks. That’s it. Oh also a bandanna. It’s tie dyed.

left_in_washington_state · April 6, 2020, 4:08am

Night Ralph, know that you and your daughter are in the thoughts of a lot of caring people!

left_in_washington_state · April 6, 2020, 4:09am

I second that!!

rucleare · April 6, 2020, 4:11am

I am NOT getting in a tussle with that beast over a face mask, that’s for sure…

kovie · April 6, 2020, 4:11am

Ah, forgot about those. What about alien probes? Has there been a security breach at Area 51?

emiliano4 · April 6, 2020, 4:29am

I am so sorry. My Blessings

mattinpa · April 6, 2020, 4:30am

What have you got to lose?

emiliano4 · April 6, 2020, 4:36am

Matty, I am sorry I happened to see this…Just seeing the context and IT. IS. JUST. SICKENING.

And it is the Trump Crew which makes this possible. Trump would be an outpatient at BEST on a very limited “pass” if he were not being used BY his Crew.

Let NO PERSON EVER forget that Trump and his entire Crew have a symbiotic relationship.

Tommie Lee is channeling our own @mattinpa. Awesome rant.
