Happy birthday, Hil!

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
My Facebook feed is pretty much fine. I really don't know anyone who voted for Trump. I know a couple of people who were really into Bernie, and I'm not totally sure who they voted for in the general election, but one lives in a state where it really doesn't matter, and the other lives in PA and is horrified by Trump, so, I really don't have anything to block.
My FB feed has way too many conservative relatives and high school classmates to be a good place for me now
It's actually not people who voted for Trump who are making FB hard for me; it's all the folks like me who are rightly horrified that Trump won. Right now 95% of the posts on my feed are talking about their fear and anger, and sharing articles about the potential horror of the coming 4 years, and I just don't have the emotional bandwidth to process all that horror and fear. I have to back away until I can handle it.
That makes me feel weak and shitty, but it's all I can do right now.
And, I just got into an argument with someone on someone else's thread. He's lecturing me about how he doesn't like arguing with uneducated people who don't understand the difference between asserting something and proving it. I was about to walk away, but really, this is going to be fun.
Oh, oh, start your comment with "Well, actually..."
I'm walking away from that argument. It's on a post that one of my favorite teachers from high school posted, and she says that he's a distant cousin of hers who only comments on her posts when he's got some political point to make, and I just don't see this going anywhere productive.

So lovely, WindSparrow!
Many happy returns, Hil! Enjoy asserting or proving or whatever. walking away.
I had a lot of stuff I would have liked to have gotten done today and did not. Just had no will to do anything except cocoon with my stories and make soup. At least I have soup, now, I guess. And I'm going to take a peek at the moon now and again n the morning, official full moon is at something like 5am here, and while I don't really know how the precise time will differ from other times tonight, it's easy enough for me to hit it so I might as well.
Happy birthday, Hil!
I'm here to plead with y'all to help me stop my rage blackout from the Bannon news. Seriously, I have to back away tonight.
Will the latest Star Trek movie keep things light and fluffy? Suggestions?
It was pretty fun.
It really was. Highly recommended.
