A fully-drafted post that disappears with an errant click is a tiny nuisance, this week of all weeks. But it is so late Wednesday evening as I’ve been working to pre-schedule the Thursday post, and I am so heartsick, and I have so much else to do and take care of and think about (regarding both the ongoing catastrophe and the elements of “ordinary” life that I’m still responsible for dealing with). Please excuse the absence of a regular post—even if, of course, it was never going to be “regular.”
And, if you’re so inclined, please check out this thread on the platform that I still call Twitter.
Shabbat shalom. Am Yisrael Chai.
Heartfelt commiserations and sympathy, Erika. The mind of anyone who could commit such acts is beyond my understanding as is the mind of anyone who seeks to justify what has been done. I grieve for all the innocents who have died, who are dying and who will die because of this situation, one deliberately engineered by Hamas and its backers.
Thank you for your comment, Clive. I share the sense of grief for all of the utterly unnecessary suffering and death—all, as you say, deliberately engineered.
