Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

We are Buffistas. This isn't our first apocalypse. -- Pix
You know, I'm resentful that someone who did so much damage and hurt so many people as Scalia did -- who is in fact responsible for the deaths of multiple people -- got to die peacefully in his bed after a party. I feel petty but. It pisses me off that my father's passage won't be anywhere near as pleasant.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand
I don't know, while I abhor Scalia's political positions it's worth noting that his closest friend on the Court was Ruth Bader Ginsburg. I can't imagine that she's a poor judge of character, so he must have had some redeeming features that weren't apparent in his official stances.
He also leaves behind a ginormous family: wife, 9 kids, and 28 grandchildren. That's a lot of grief to feel sympathy for.

That's a good observation, Matt.

Well, a man can be nice and still have no business anywhere near the Constitution.

Yes. This. I have people very near and dear to me who hold view similar to his. I'm sorry for those who loved him, but I will say I'm glad he's no longer on the Supreme Court.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I'm too sick to exercise but not too sick to grade
Oh, that is sad! i had a good practice today, so you can have some of my chi if you need it.
I still have not watched the Great British Baking, but I think the upcoming 3.14.16 pi day is going to require many pies, and possibly practice pies before. I have been googling "breakfast pie" in the hopes of coming up something both bizarrely comprehensive and tasty. WIP
I now qualify for older adult housing complexes of 55+. Yay?
Yay! I am kinda looking forward to when I do, some of those are pretty sweet. And happy birthday! Have a wonderful time in Vegas!
Yikes, sarameg! That's pretty cool that they notified you.
People have been saying the "bad winner=revolution" thing for ages
Like at least century by now, right? I figure if you are in a good enough situation to be able to contemplate how things getting worse might be good long-term, you're gonna be up against the wall.
Yay vw shower!
Yay books!
I do not know how to react to Scalia's death. It's a big stew of complex emotions. For one thing, I can remember some of his decisions and minority dissensions that were pretty righteous - not recently, but they happened.
