@nprpolitics
Our usual gang of relatives are all like-minded albeit ranging from moderate Democrats to very liberal. Talking politics at the holidays is a way to bond, to feel the comfort of like-minds, to acknowledge the big bad world while appreciating our companionship.
I'm weeping watching
@CapehartJ
interview
@Chasten
and saying "I need to know where you got that shirt" - OMG, that's so sweet and so gay and so heartfelt and so so so rare. Thank you both for normalizing the realities of gay & queer men everywhere.

My partner and I celebrated our 16th anniversary on Thursday. To celebrate, we took our dog to the vet, spent $400, and then stopped at Dairy Queen.

Don't focus on President as a viral transmitter, but focus on him as a transmitter of inaccurate information and people who listen to him will spread the virus

We nursed our sick foster

in residence in our bathroom.

My partner stayed up most of the night putting cool compresses on her the first night. She's amazing.
@glaad
Got my 2x Moderna vaccine on Tues. Side effects have been awful - I'm still in bed three days later. Still a win b/c I don't have COVID-19. A win because side effects are not sickness.
Last night, the LGBTQIA+ Commission of Pittsburgh voted unanimously to stand with

@Teamsters
by sigining their

Our foster kittens are making progress with socialization. It's a lot of incremental work. Hope they'll be ready for adoption soon. Names are Spencer Cassadine & Stefano DiMera.

80's kid here. We didn't have keys until high school. Earlier years, we had to swing ourselves up from the awning to the dining room window, get it open, step in OVER the china on the buffet, then open the front door for sibling.
@glaad
Our former foster kitten escaped his home, was on the lam for 8 days, and returned home at 4 AM on Tuesday. He's fine. We were very scared for him.
Wow
@CapehartJ
must be exhausted - he's been on the front burner all week. An

having his work acknowledged (and hopefully getting some rest to guest host again soon)
