That is amazing. Awkwardness so thick you could cut it with a knife.

And you did not say, "I think you should use the word if it's the one you're comfortable using."

Why don't they just take her on as an oral history project? Allow her to remain at her base rent, with the condition that she records her memories of the neighborhood for use at the Museum. Everybody wins, nobody's a charity case.

"Why don't you identify yourself as what you actually are instead of using some vague word that doesn't really mean anything?"

I hate when the response to all the "frivolous" GoFundMes is "BUT THINK OF ALL THE CHARITY YOU COULD BE DOING INSTEAD!!!" Sometimes doing something silly is really okay.…

When I saw the first ad, I thought the "red hands" had period blood on them, which...didn't seem like an unreasonable thing for her husband to be upset about. Like, if my hands were smeared with blood, my SO would have something to say as well.

That is the face of someone who goes down on you for just too fucking long.
