I mean, this week sucks, but I don’t think it’s anywhere near almost every week during the Civil War.

No doubt about that. But it definitely tops the list of weeks where unrelated tragedies seem to occur.

April is the cruelest month, breeding

Memory and desire, stirring
Dull roots with spring rain

Two paragraphs on the tragedies that happened April 14-20 and you don’t mention the assassination of Abraham Lincoln.

Oh, I forgot, on this website that was considered a good thingz
