You corner my mother, talk down to her, then tell me I should be ashamed for not being able to separate from 'politics'...politics that DETERMINE MY RIGHTS...and I'm not going to try to phrase things calmly anymore. I tried calm. I tried citations. I tried respectful.

No, I will not Agree to Disagree over human rights and policies that will get more killed. I will not agree to disagree about the candidate she voted for being a felon rapist and that she considered him the 'Christian' pick. Fuck it. I'm done trying to be civil.

And of course, if you love someone you get them diamonds or whatever and so you are set up for feeling your holiday hasn't been CHRISTMAS enough and you are missing out. When you think back to the origins, whether Pagan or Religious...how did we create this monster?

This is the stuff that would have made my college tuition actually worth something. Miscellaneous facts. That and cooking, sewing, and other How to Adult things. I'm saying I would have loved home ec in college, okay?!?
