Honey, there is no right way

have to leave this post in my

will to my children.

It's time to know theirs:

Boris and Sofia Gurman - Russian Jews. The first people who attempted to disarm one of the shooters. They died protecting people.

Reuven Morrison - a 60 year old Jewish man who hurled a brick at one of the shooters to distract him. He was shot and killed.

Edith Brutman - vice president of an anti-prejudice and anti-discrimination committee at B’nai B’rith NSW.

Marika Pogany - an 82 year old Jewish volunteer who assisted Jewish seniors.

10 year old Matilda. A Jewish girl who was shot and killed while playing at the petting zoo.

Dan Elkayam - a French Jew living in Australia who loved soccer.

Rabbi Eli Schlanger - father of five, who promoted dancing with joy to combat antisemitism.

Rabbi Yaakov Levitan - shot while handing out tefillin.

Peter Meagher - retired police officer who was taking photos at the events. Photography was his retirement passion.

Alex Kleytman - a Holocaust survivor who died protecting his wife.

Tibor Weitzen - a Russian Jew known as the "lolli man". He would give confectionery to the children of his shul.

An unidentified 40-year-old man was taken to Royal Prince Alfred Hospital on Sunday but died at the hospital.

Odysseus: Regret it why?

Cassandra: You won’t believe me if I tell you. If I prophecy, nobody believes me. That is my curse.

Odysseus: … I’m Nobody. Fill me in. 

*A couple of months later* 

Odysseus: HELLO PENELOPE, I AM HERE PRECISELY ON TIME AND NOT YEARS LATE incidentally I rescued and adopted a Trojan seer while I was away, she’s great, got me home really fast, Cassandra this is your new mother who’s not going to treat you like shit. 

Penelope: … I’m going to need more details, but okay, sure. 

To which I nodded solemnly, both out of agreement, surprise and also a healthy amount of awkward fear. He nodded and went, “You get it.”

I thought that would be the end of it.

Except ten minutes later he came back and told me he found out (she’s bi) and that both of us have a shot. I said “You more than me.” because he’s attractive and popular. 

My math teacher was trying to fix the rolling whiteboard and he just offhand said “This would be easier with a wrench”

I got there and her daughter or granddaughter came out and was like omg her phone died we were worried

And then the older lady said something and the younger lady translated.

"She knew she could trust you because you have pink hair"

I thought it was funny at the time. But when I think back on it I think she was basically saying "you had a visible sign of not vibing with the system I was afraid of"
