Some Halloween

Hurricane Melissa did a lot of damage, but I read on Bluesky that Jamaica has a catastrophe bond that will pay, so hopefully they will get a lot of aid quickly. World Central Kitchen are setting up too.

Meanwhile it's Halloween, and Governor Pritzker asked Kristi Noem to pause ICE operations (because they already ruined a Halloween parade last Saturday), but Noem refuses. It's so sad that they think it's ok to just terrorize neighborhoods like this. And the government shutdown continues, with SNAP ending on Saturday. How awful.

I've been on vacation this week, and I wrote a new Holmes story, but I am feeling sad about everything else. Even political satirical humor isn't much help. I did manage to vote, though.
