Well. I ordered a bark collar for baby girl pug then went back into the yard. 

It's sad to think of our dogs watching us and worrying.....
"I know you're watching the fear box."

That's so sad.

OK.  The dog shooting discussion on neighborhood message board devolved into a caveman vs indignant posters using words like psychopath and active shooter......
"discussion."

Political, of course.  Some of it funny.  Most of it tedious and designed to poke rather than find understanding. 

The update is.... there's a police report and detective on the case.  Hopefully, they'll find the person who shot the dog, and arrest them.  I have to tell you.... the court system here has been shut down... or it was when I last checked.  I assume they'll let the person out on bond, then what?

Things are unlikely to get better on their own, particularly with all the nutsy rocksy statements being made.  I think a lot of it's racial, to be honest.

I'm not worrying.  I'm looking at it with eyes unclouded by hate and it's not a good view.

Oh... did I say I ordered a bark collar for baby girl pug?  I did.

A man pooped in the woods near a ritzy neighborhood... .wooded area with trails, then started masturbating.  Cops were called.  A man shouted at the guy (caucasian, 40s or 50s) and sent him running. 

A naked man (caucasian) was arrested near the same area, not sure if it was the same man. 

People are really losing their minds around here and we're not in a big city.

This is the most devastatingly beautiful-while-horrific piece of journalism on the coronavirus I've read yet.

This newspaper leaves me speechless sometimes.

These sort of situations bring out the best and worst in people, and unfortunately the worst get a lot more press coverage here than the good actions.  Kids have been making face guards on 3D printers  - domestic violence deaths have doubled.  NHS staff are dying because they don't have the right protective gear - politicians are claiming it's because they're misusing it.  Horror and glory side by side.  Madness.
