earlier, again

“I got sent the live link by some­one, and when I saw the ti­tle of the link it didn’t cross my mind that it was some­thing that was currently(ish) hap­pen­ing. Watched five sec­onds of the cold­est video footage I’d ever seen.”

Me, to an­oth­er friend who brought up the terrorist’s man­i­festo be­fore I’d had a chance to see the news:
“Wait, is this about a new shoot­ing or a past shoot­ing? Also, the fact that I have to ask that ques­tion means we live in the worst time­line.”

Re­mem­ber how WUNO was a dumb fuck­ing thing ex­act­ly this time last year?

Me, last year:
“So, peo­ple who sup­port WUNO, tell me: Which six year old was re­spon­si­ble for be­ing nicer to Adam Lan­za so he wouldn’t kill 20 first graders?”

Can’t wait for that con­ver­sa­tion to start again.
