Please watch a phenomenal movie called “Women Talking.”

All best, Davi Chabner

Still remembering the day of meeting you.

Glad to hear someone else liked “Women Talking”. That is what we do. We don’t go out and kill the first thing we see or try to hurt back. We talk. We seek a solution. We care about others. We act on our love for children. We are sane in an insane situation.

Please don't be grudging with that "we"; some men are in on all that too. Perhaps "we" are "the community formed around HCR," or even "progressives, broadly defined." But I must cop to sometimes getting insane in this insane situation. "Makes me want to holler/ And throw up both my hands." - Marvin Gaye (1971). How long, O Lord, how long?

A kind and loving man August took the minutes and was clearly a friend.

I’m glad you mentioned that, Joshua. You expanded on my initial thought. -->Perhaps "we" are "the community formed around HCR," or even "progressives, broadly defined."<--

This community feels more and more like home.

Yes! I agree! Find, nurture , and hold on to those precious men who are like August.

My son and I came home tonight from a soccer match. My wife said she had watched "Women Talking," and she couldn't stop talking about it. I must watch it.
