Be safe tonight, and be smart. Picture in your mind right now what you value most. Don’t lose what you see.
That’s why the internet and especially Twitter are the worst places for this, because you don’t have relationships and people are trying to show how smart they are.

Obvious, I know, but the article linked below offers some insight on just why this is and provides hope for being able to come together as Americans to move forward, together, to get out of the messes currently before us.
