Navigating The Hellscape
The Red Sox are trying to win
their first series of the young season.
Israel is carpet-bombing southern Lebanon.
I had a smoked salmon sandwich for lunch
and chatted with a friend,
then sent another friend a note
hoping his family in Lebanon are okay.
What even is “okay”?
Roman Anthony is up to bat.
He’s gone 0 for 2 in this game.
Iran has withdrawn from negotiations with the U.S.
because of the bombing of Lebanon.
The cat is asleep on the bed behind me.
Six minutes ago, Mosab Abu Toha posted:
“Israel has just shot a Palestinian woman
in the head in Mawasi Rafah.”
The sun is shining.
