[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.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
Ugh. I got so upset I gave myself a stomach ache. These are already the inlaws I have a tenuous relationship with. The fallout of this is going to be bad. I didn't start it. D's stepdad started it on purpose knowing my political beliefs. The things they were saying were just so horrible. No Mexicans work they're all just gaming the system. And hearing a man of Jewish descent say that no one Muslim should be let in this country purely on the basis of their religion is just mind boggling to me. It's equally as mind boggling to me when my Italian relatives say terrible things about immigrants.

Fuck this shit! TCG and I were quietly having a conversation about this stuff in the market, when some asshole overheard is and was obviously not happy. So he asked TCG what country he is from?!?

Ugh, sj. I'm sorry you have to grapple with this.

Jebus. Letting the racists off their leash is leading some ugly places.

Oh sj, that is just insane. I am trying to stand up to the crazy I encounter, but really I just want to run away to Buffista Island and never see or hear these people again.
I have friends that disagree politically that I can discuss things with without it getting personal and ugly. Far too few. Mostly it is just name calling with zero facts. And just depressing.

Thanks, everyone. In sorry to drag this in here. I just needed a safe place to vent. I'm home now. Still a little worked up.

No apologies. Sorry to say that we are all encountering more of this lately and it is more than a little upsetting.

Thanks, Laura. Facebook keeps reminding me how long it has been since I have seen you at the Providence F2F. I miss you! You must come visit and meet ltc.

Yes, sj. I am still in Florida because my mom hasn't been well enough to travel and it doesn't make a lot of sense for me to go north when she can't. Brendon really enjoyed our time together in Providence with you and TCG and wants to meet ltc too. I denied him having a daughter and he has baby girl envy. He always wanted the opportunity to glare at dates coming to pick up his daughter and it isn't quite as much fun with sons.
