The River Cannot Go Back
It is said that before entering the sea
a river trembles with fear.
She looks back at the path she has traveled,
from the peaks of the mountains,
the long winding road crossing forests and villages.
And in front of her,
she sees an ocean so vast,
that to enter
there seems nothing more than to disappear forever.
But there is no other way.
The river can not go back.
Nobody can go back.
To go back is impossible in existence.
The river needs to take the risk
of entering the ocean
because only then will fear disappear,
because that’s where the river will know
it’s not about disappearing into the ocean,
but of becoming the ocean.
By Kahlil Gibran.

I hope they find the kits (if there are any... it is the season and could explain the attacks) and relocate the family.

Netflix actually made a Short-Ass Movies category after Saturday Night Live sketch
The powers that be at Netflix saw a recent Saturday Night Live sketch and thought to themselves, "Good idea."
The streaming giant created a new category for subscribers titled "Short-Ass Movies" after getting the idea from an SNL sketch that aired this past weekend during Jerrod Carmichael's episode.
The pre-taped segment saw Pete Davidson, Chris Redd, Red Rocket star Simon Rex, and rapper Gunna musically muse about how they are always in need of "a really short movie" that's at most an hour and 40 minutes long. Not something like The Batman with a nearly 3-hour runtime.
"Three hours, 47 minutes? Bro, you must be crazy. No thanks, I'mma watch a short-ass movie like Driving Miss Daisy," Davidson rapped in the bit.
