Well, Dara’s got a fun new party trick.

Been an eventful week here in the states. I generally try to keep this space apolitical, but unfortunately that’s the only thing on my mind right now. What I will say on that topic, dear readers, is be bold, and be safe. I’ll also just leave this here:

All that is gold does not glitter,

Not all those who wander are lost;

The old that is strong does not wither,

Deep roots are not reached by the frost.

From the ashes a fire shall be woken,

A light from the shadows shall spring;

Renewed shall be blade that was broken,

The crownless again shall be king.

― J.R.R. Tolkien, The Fellowship of the Ring
