On having to spell out things we didn’t think we had to spell out

Tags: joplin joplin tornado joplin missouri tornado tornadoes

spacebaw said: and this is significant…how?

» SFB says: Because a woman died when reacting to another person’s death after the deadliest tornado in modern U.S. history — a tornado which has turned a city of 50,000 into rubble. Sorry if it doesn’t pass muster for you. It did for us. In fact, it really affected us. (EDIT: Not to belabor the point on this, but this Tumblr is sticking by their incredibly insensitive point. “Meanwhile, nobody cares.” Really? Try losing someone you love and see how you feel.)  — Ernie @ SFB
