My Co-workers are going to be on the 11 o'clock news.

Just raised the largest pride flag in Seattle over our corporate headquarters. Security was unobtrusive, and the turnout was huge. Pushing a good 500 people.

Anyway, there was a live performance of John Lennon's 'Imagine' after a moment of silence for Orlando. A song near and dear to me for related reasons.

In a world without our religions, events like Orlando, Paris, 9/11 would be virtually non-existent.

Can I imagine a world like that? I sure can.


Too bad we have so many that put their religious beliefs ahead of their fellow humans by refusing to accept that it's their religion responsible for motivating the monsters that perpetrate these horrific events.
Doesn't matter the religion, they're all equally guilty.

For the past week, has added something new to their screens. In the upper right-hand corner is the single word "Orlando," over a white ribbon.

Good for them. Though I pretty much only watch that channel for its true-crime shows - "Snapped," "Snapped: She Made Me Do It," "Killer Couples," etc.
