I'd like to think it's when enough people are known to be LGBTQ, because they don't have to hide, that people realize how many there are...

How about a day when no one has to "come out"? When there is no assumption of straightness to be removed?

Yes, I appreciate that it is a fair trade catalog. I'm just not a crunchy sort of person. This year, she got stuff from just a novelty catalog. bas bleu, for the record.

They clearly love you! Those are expensive and sell out! Good stuff!

Liked him even better as Forrest Bedford

At that age, or even mine, you are looking for incremental changes.
We are supposed to be close, but as I get older I realize that means I "get" her.
I am lucky to have her, but Christmas hits some childish part of me.....

My mom is 83. I am struggling to accept that I am lucky she is still with us, but it hurts to get stuff she got out of novelty catalogs, not bad stuff for someone else, but not "me". I know I have specific taste and style, and she doesn't, but I did have my husband suggest a nice bottle o'booze, which my dad got me. I…

Shasta, too

Klosterneuberg Abbey is redundant. A Kloster is an abbey....like saying Schloss Neuschwanstein Castle....
Carry on

I have spent many panicked minutes waiting for dogs to return from chasing deer. My nearly 8 year old bitch Weim would turn on a dime and return, but our new rescue one year old boy stays on a leash. Makes for a much more peaceful walk, though I miss the running and frolicking.....

I think actual facts matter not one whit to her. She just knows what's right; Jesus is her Wikipedia!

Thier too totally differnt words!

I don't think you can characterize her many misstatements of fact as lies. They are not intentional, merely negligent, reckless....she displays a reckless disregard for knowledge!

Love Allison Brie, but she does not star on Mad Men. She plays a recurring character.

Naw. Must clearly be that she's pregnant AND GOING TO RAISE THIS CHILD ALONE! Watch for the headlines!

Y'all might want to check out the films Ray MacKinnon and Walton Goggins produced as Ginny Mule Productions. Their goal was to show the range of ordinary, middle class Southerners. Some are smart, some not so much. Y'know, like regular people. The Accountant won the short film Oscar, and my favorite is Randy and the…

I grew up in SC, and went to work in Chicago. People assumed I was a bigot, although literally one of my besties in high school is black, while they never knew a black person by name before they came to work in the Loop.

Civic activism and outdoorsy stuff

In SC, you have to have a hearing to get divorced, and it isn't final until the judge signs the order. Even with one all ready to sign, a few judges won't do it while the litigants wait. I always warn them not to remarry until the order comes through. A colleague had a guy attempt to remarry directly after the…

I wonder if you can pop popcorn in bacon grease.
