I hunted high and low for an image that I wanted to make a "sad" icon with, because sometimes I just don't have a suitable icon for whatever depressing thing has happened lately. And then I found an image that I actually already had hiding on my hard drive, and now I've got one. Go, me.
Because sometimes things happen and all we want to do is squish our stuffed lion.
Totally gankable if anyone wants the thing.

I am holding...

the .pdf proof for Darwin's Evolutions Vol. 2 No. 1. In which my story "Who's Afraid of the Big Bad Wolf" is appearing.
And it's shiny, y'all. OMG THE ILLUSTRATION. It's by the handsome and talented Karl Nordman, and it's SOOOOOOOOOO PRETTY.
I'd forgotten how much I love this story. I'm so happy it's seeing print.

And the Ft. Hood shooting hits even closer to home. Pvt. Aaron Nemelka, from West Jordan, UT, (which is the city I live in) was one of the first people killed by that UTTER FUCKING ASSHOLE yesterday. Pvt. Nemelka was nineteen.
Hanging is too good for Hasan. I refuse to dignify him by mentioning the rank he no longer merits.
And of course it's a fucking act of terror. He may have acted alone, may not be part of a cell--but no one thinks that the Oklahoma City Bombing is anything less than an act of terrorism, and Timothy McVeigh only acted with one other person. Lone nuts are perfectly capable of terrorism, and we're fucking delusional if we don't think that. If the killing of an abortionist by an idiot fanatic merits the word "terrorism" (and don't you dare tell me it doesn't, because I see that all the time), then this certainly does. The body count is certainly higher.
A tsunami is a tragedy. An earthquake is a tragedy. This was a cowardly act of cold-blooded premeditated mass murder, by a guy who yelled "Allahu Akbar" before he opened fire on his fellow soldiers. Don't tell me I'm jumping to a conclusion. The conclusion leaped out of a dark alley and mugged me.
Apologies for the R-rated language, but I'm beyond furious and maybe Ben's rubbing off on me a little. He wouldn't have any patience for this kind of sugar-coating bullshit either. "Tragedy" my ass.
