Sitting around playing it safe is the way to not make everyone else's jobs potentially harder and I fully respect that, believe me, but I can't keep not doing things.
Are there non-punchy/stabby/blasty things for people to do to help? My apartment is open to anyone who needs a shower or a nap and doesn't live here but that's not going to help that many people? What about food? We still have power here and I know all about what it takes to feed a crowd. I don't have a crowd's worth of food in my apartment, but I'm willing to use what I do have?
