I get that a family lost a loved one but I just don't care?
Why should I feel sympathy for a QAnon freak who would kill me?
Oh she's definitely in Valhalla. The only person who died in battle yesterday pretty much gets scooped up by default.
In today's lecture I will explain why Valhalla is not heaven and why you don't want to go there (it's full of psycho killers)
"Yay, I went to Valhalla!"
"OH GOD ALL THEY DO IS FIGHT TO THE DEATH WHICH NEVER COMES IN AN ENDLESS CYCLE OF PAIN"

I think there were a couple heart attacks too
