For those just "meeting me" I'm a very tolerant person until you either hurt my friends or family, then it's gloves off.
No hate speech, misogyny, racism, sexism, ageism etc
Whether you are gay, straight or any point in between, you are welcome
Trans friends are also welcome.

The most notorious fucking liar in politics is claiming he has an obligation to sue.
I swear to God if this goes ahead, there should be a few thousand defamation cases against Trump for the constant stream of utter bollocks that comes out of his mouth.

I'm starting to wonder if Lord Brannan has been handling some archive documents that have some interesting mould cultures on them and forgot to follow safe handling processes. :)
Tbf he only gets his leg eaten by a shark? I assume he was brought back in to be a steadying influence on Dalton-Bond as they’d had a mentoring relationship before, and the previous Felix had got sacked after being caught shagging in a coke binge in Algiers
Except for the one who gets eaten by sharks, who is randomly the same one who'd worked with Moore-Bond on that San Monique voodoo case nearly two decades earlier.

I felt strongly that Newsom had good arguments being used against Trump and his media team were really taking it to the Mango Mussolini, but completely agree that Newsom's opinions on the Transgender issue were entirely wrong.
Transpeople are PEOPLE first and foremost and deserve equality.

I'm ready for apologies from pundits and politicians who showed their bigoted asses and suggested we needed to abandon trans people in order to win.

I've been reviewing the records of an Episcopal parish in Baltimore that closed in 1903 for genealogical reasons. I've found some of what I wanted, haven't found two things I expected.
It's weird seeing a parent in a baptism in 1862 listed twenty pages later for a funeral in 1871.

This has been a problem for a few years. A lot of the issues do stem from drivers who "Upgrade" their bulbs from halogen without changing the lens cover.
