Glam, what's the deal? they want you to sign up to see it.

Spike's Bitches 46: Don't I get a cookie?
[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.

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister

So if I, as the minority, have to be the one to educate the minority, I will have to do it ad inifinitum. I may be the only minority the majority person has ever encountered, but I have encountered many many of her.
It's nowhere NEAR the same sort of thing, but I'm in a similar space. I have pretty much set myself up as the spokesperson for Goth, and yet, there are times when I get tired of explaining the same thing over and over, having to tell people that I'm not wearing a costume, and no, they can't touch me, please stop.

Yes, this. I have zero interest in educating every stranger I meet on disability or to the their children who they send over to ask me question. People can ask really personal things, and I'd rather live my life and not think about any of it any more than I absolutely have to.

Oh Nonian, so sorry you're still sick! Yeesh! Immune system, activate!
Please remind me I need to step away from Facebook and not keep responding to my cousin's post that's happy there are Planned Parenthood clinics closing in Texas.
oof. I'm so glad I don't have hardly any friends or relatives on FB who post that kind of thing (a few of them are definitely way more conservative than I am, but they tend not to post political things)

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
It's a life, not teaching material. Treating it otherwise is continual othering, and can be quite rude.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
I have helped a friend move, gotten a temp library card and checked out two books, and am back home. I did *not* stop by the library book sale, or check out all the cool shops near my friend's new place, yay me. I need to vacuum out my car and do a million other things, but since I didn't sleep well last night, I think a nap may have to come first.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
I have briefly abandoned Jilli at her supersecret Goth project to come home and medicate Kittenish and do some straightening around the house (including redoing everything under the kitchen sink now that my garbage disposal has been replaced and everything seems to have dried out.) before it warms up today.

I had breakfast and worked out with my trainer, but feel like a weakling and like I"m not getting any stronger. Argh.
Now trying to decide what to do until dinnertime. Besides go buy more bandaids.
Things I really should do: clean house, it's a pit. Lutherans everywhere.
