I try to cut Americans slack in these trying times but the negativity and defensiveness can be much, even with my sympathies running overdrive. Don't shoot your allies, please.
Every one of us is stressed. I guess a drowning man can't help but drown the first responder, but it's getting hard in a few cases to remain friends.
In bleeding, humble solidarity just now I got called smug and then apocalyptic too. Both? Never mind, there's no answering some kinds of need. Let's just sit. I'll make tea.
