Shir, that's absolutely horrendous. I hope you're OK. It's good to hear you're going to talk to the feminist group about what they might recommend.
Stop means no. And no means no. So . . . stop.

Spike's Bitches 45: That sure as hell wasn't in the brochure.
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Our wings are not tired
I suppose they've already tried cranberry supplements?
It's way beyond that. Mom can't walk and is pretty much confined to a wheelchair or bed. She's up over 200 pounds in weight so we have a lift to be able to move her from bed to her wheelchair and from her wheelchair to her chair in the living room. Part of the issue is that he bladder doesn't drain completely and she can't get to the bathroom, so she has assistance to change her diaper. All around a lot of things to keep on top of.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

I figured so, but had forgotten details if I knew them. How frustrating for her and all of you.

Thousands of years of religious patriarchy and "democratic" country which is turning a blind eye?

I agree.
And now, trying to take a shower and praying the whole process won't hurt too much on this bruised body. Joy.

Sorry not to respond to anyone other than Shir. It's been a helluva day (I have wine now so it's getting better). Vendor won't budge on a £3000 reduction on our asking price due to the place being a mess, including needing electrical work and building work. We went to Derby and back for a meeting with disabled students' services that made me cry (I have to learn not to do that - it doesn't scream 'professional'). And I've just realised (rather late to my own party, me) that I'm having a 'low' month or two. And I refuse to go to the doctor because I hate that medication treadmill. So I'm going to ride it out. Take THAT, depression, you wanking buggery bastard. Yes.
In nicer news, did I mention I have wine? And now actually reading the board.

move out and draw fire
That particular group has always annoyed me in theory. Now they've pissed me off in practice by assault-and-battery on a 'ffista.

Shir, you are living in the wrong part of the world.
Not that I think there's a right part of the world for people like us.
