Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
I have two sets of sheets with sage and a paler, softer sage green leaves and grey stems printed batik-style on cream fabric. And a set of sage green sheets, and a set of pretty dove-grey sheets, all in fairly high content cotton. Which get mixed to one grey, one printed pillowcase, grey bottom, printed top sheet, or printed bottom, grey top sheet, and ditto the green. I *love* the print, and don't mind always having it on the bed in some configuration. Soothing and familiar, and clean, mmmm. H doesn't care much, as long as it's horizontal.

OH GOOD THE HOME THEATER INSTALLATION GUY HAS ARRIVED AT OUR NEIGHBOR'S HOUSE. ASK ME HOW I KNOW.

Our wings are not tired.
Tell us, Dana, HOW DO YOU KNOW?

We are desperately, desperately hoping it's just that loud for calibration purposes.

OH GOOD DANA'S DOG FOUND THE CHAINSAW.
You can pretend the dog ate the sound system when you somehow mysteriously sabotage it? If the level isn't just calibration, that is.

The status is NOT quo.
People. Some white dude married to an acquaintance of mine who I've hung with casually a couple of times at parties and such just reacted VERY BADLY when I commented that, no, people of color can't be "just as racist" as white people. I tried putting it into historical context. I explained I've been studying this for 10 years and seeking to broaden my own perspectives and suggested a couple of books he might want to check out. His response was the most condescending, arrogant, mansplaining and insulting dismissal of my intelligence and education I have EVER experienced. Dude, I KNOW YOU. I WILL SEE YOU SOCIALLY. TRY to at least be civil. I really had to walk away before I ruin my friendship with his wife, but I AM SO PISSED.
Or emotionally exhausted. Also feeling that.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
Pix, that sucks.
Not enough wypipo get that racism isn't simply prejudice. There is a big divide between those of us who understand that it is is social/political/econonic power plus racial prejudice and those who do not. until we can get it into their heads that the power component is a necessary element of racism, discussions involving "reverse racism" will be as productive as trying to convince vagina guy that vulvas are a thing.
