That's...more good things than I thought I was going to post when I started typing. Wow!
You like ships. You don't seem to be looking at the destinations. What you care about is the ships, and mine's the nicest.

Goodbye and Good Riddance 2020: Do Not Taunt Happy Fun Year
Take stock, reflect, butch, moan, vent. We are all here for it.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Although I do appreciate that we had a long tradition of hating years before it was cool.
Ha!
I'm not going to think too hard about the ramifications of that

Our wings are not tired.
Focusing on the good. We've been pretty healthy this year. We were in a business that wasn't hurt by the pandemic, although things were pretty hectic for a while there while my doctors were trying to figure out how to function.
My eldest child spent the summer with me in Otter Lake, and I didn't kill him. He ended up getting a job he likes, an apartment he loves, and is happier and more stable than he has been in a decade or more. And he sends me pictures of snow because he still finds it a shiny new experience.
My younger son bought a house and moved out of mine, and he and his wife are making me a grandmother in January. Our relationship is very strained at the moment, but I believe the issues are the piles of stress in his life so I am just responding to him when he communicates and letting it be for the time.
OMG, I don't have to move to Canada! The damage that still can be done before January 20th is a daunting thought, but an end is in sight. There are effective vaccines being rolled out, and although there will still be so many thousands of people who will become ill and possibly die, there is an end in sight.
I'm very grateful that most (alas not all) of my loved ones have taken this pandemic very seriously and remained safe and healthy.

KB, I hate Donald Trump as much as the next person, and I know you probably didn’t mean to be hurtful. However, the term Diaper Donnie is very ableist and hurtful to those of us with disabilities. I do not know if the DT has incontinence or not, but if he does, it is not one of his many character flaws.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
Hey, Laura, that's a perfectly reasonable joke, but maybe not the moment for it, since treating people with disabilities as parallel to toddlers can feel like infantilization, which is a major form of ablism.

Laura, that may have been the case in this instance, but I can assure you it is not the case in many many instances I have seen in the media over the past few years. And I find it very hurtful that you are being so dismissive.
