I covered my first school shooting in 2001. First reporter there, I talked to a student the shooter let live, and the mother of one of the dead. Covered my second 17 days later. That was 21 years ago. Every one guts me. Thank you for your words, @ebruenig. theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/…
In 2018 in a new role as editor of @sdutOpinion, as a parent whose oldest had told my wife that she feared she would be the first victim in a school shooting because her desk was by the door, we wrote a six-word editorial. Zoom in. See the names. The ages. Read my column on why.

Thank you @alt949sd for playing the top 100 alternative songs from the last century today. It is just the escape to another time and place I needed, the release for a lot of pent-up emotions in my tired brain and body. “You’ll find sanctuary/and the world drags me down.” 🤕🥲🎧❤️
I don’t say this *just* as someone from the Boston area, but “Where is my mind?” at No. 40 is toooo 👏 damn 👏 low!
