Cis-LGBTQ woman.
IT'S THE GUNS!
Happy Pride Month!
As a pansexual older cis-woman partnered with a cis-man, I am often viewed as an older hetero lady, but that is not me.
We live among you :)

I am so sorry. On Saturday we will be saying goodbye to our 17 year old dachshund with kidney failure and dementia (Saturday so my son can be there)
Your post is helping me, we are having a hard time.
May your memories of Buffy be a blessing

yes, this is the truth, I had one tell me I was inventing my dead friend, and stories in my own family of problems accessing hospital care for Non-covid emergencies due to overwhelmed hospitals. Accusing me outright of lying.

My parents hosted exchange students from Italy many years ago. One called my now elderly parents to beg them to stay home. I am happy to say it made more of an impact than us kids warnings to them

Wait until he figures out that it will increase the birth rate much more with POC. White women are more likely to have the resources to travel for abortions. Imagine thinking criminalizing abortion is a better incentive for parenthood than robust social supports

My dog has been sick this week w/ gastro issues & today we gave her a bath. It noticeably improved her spirits. We pampered her. Shampoo, trimming hair, blow dry. She finally slept after a long week of crying & restlessness & attacked her dinner w/ gusto.

In 2007, a former coworker of mine sought a tubal ligation. She already had two children & didn't more. The doctor required a permission note from her boyfriend! (Father of her kids). I was horrified. We talked her into changing doctors and she did.

A close friend had an ectopic pregnancy carrying twins, one in the fallopian tube, the other in the uterus. Without emergency surgery, she and her future daughter (now 18 years old) would have died along with the embryo. This is horrific.

One of the disturbing things I discovered doing genealogy about the Spanish flu, is that I owe my existence to it. My grandfather lost his first family to it. Wife, 2 kids. Dead. Remarried to my grandmother. My birth mother born in 1924. Don't know how to feel about this.

My best friend was pregnant w/ a much wanted child. A few weeks in, it was discovered that there was a previously unknown twin ectopically planted in her fallopian tube. Emergency surgery saved her & her now 19 yo daughter. Both would be dead without this surgery. Pro life, huh?

She lived in a studio apt, knew she needed a bigger apt to satisfy the welfare workers. They said they couldn't help her until the babies came home. Then after the birth, they wouldn't let the babies come home because she didn't have a "big enough apartment" Catch-22

One of the biggest maddening falsehoods I hear from the right is that it was "proven that there was no Russian Collusion in 2016" Drives me nuts, just because Barr lied about the report and that's what the media honed in on. (the lie)
It continues and the GOP is in on it.
