The Rituals

  • Tragedy

The Onion posts their "'No Way To Prevent This,' Says Only Nation Where This Regularly Happens" piece.

Someone links to Jo Walton's poem "Moloch," and someone else to Cheryl Wheeler's song "If It Were Up To Me". Maybe someone links to Chuck Wendig's parable "The Doormakers Will Make No Doors". Someone quotes Dan Hodges's tweet "In retrospect Sandy Hook marked the end of the US gun control debate...."

And someone links to Kieran Healy's essay "Rituals of Childhood".

“Social science also teaches us something about how rituals end, although not enough. The most important step is to kindle a belief that there are other ways to live, other forms that collective life can take.”

— Kieran Healy.
