Ooh, if politics doesn't kill this thing, Nothing will.

Well, I think politics can kill a thread. But only after an agonizing devolution where there is a whole lot of banghead.gif (I just wanted to use that emote... It's cracks me uptongue.gif)

So let's see if I can hijack this thread...

Bunnies!!!

And feel just as outraged that the people who teach our children often make less tan janitors. Think what some of that money could do for them.

Where's this?! I'll go work for 'em! :P Teachers here make twice what I do. They's deservin it of course, but I aint makin enough to live in the same county I work in. Course buyin new computers every school year might be eatin at my possibilities.

So vote and change it. It's the only way. My generation believed we could change the world.

And you know what? We did. It IS a better world in many, many ways-including public access to information and awareness of the rights of individuals, student rights and services, job protect. accountability. On and on. I grew up in the 50s and nostalgia aside it really wasn't a very nice-or even a very free time.

Besides-as someone wise recently pointed out to me-they even still play our music!

But do you know how upsetting it is to see the young rebel rockers o my youth now wrinkled and liver spotted?!

I do vote! Every chance there is! But that's not the problem. Your generation didn't have the attention span of a Sponebob Squarepants viewer. You could focus on something long enough to give a crap. And it's not getting better. I can't believe I'm pointing to something created by the creator of Beavis and Butthead, but he makes an awesome point with this movie. If you haven't seen it, watch it, and be very very afraid!Click here

Kelsie-I'm sorry if you took that as aimed at you. Nor did I mean to imply you don't vote.

We have different perspectives on history. I see the names of activists from my generation still active. And I see a few old hippies around being hippies still. Perhaps we are focused on different people from my generation.

If you want to criticize my generation then make it for the tidal waves of drugs for which we opened the floodgates.

I spent my working life trying to make a better world one child and family at a time-and from my perspective it is.

But each has their own values and perspectives. And is entitled to their opinion.

You're right-I'm sorry-I did misread. And I'll have to request that movie with my next order. Thanks for straightening that out for me. I've always liked you and your posts and was surprised when I misread.

Would you buy senior moment-even though I read it twice?

My own take on 500 years in the future-we'll be as socially and spiritually advanced as we are technologically advanced -or we'll be making stone tools and living in caves.

Hugs

This is the kinda thing that can't die. Even if it looks like it's dead, 6 months later someone will bring it up. And then a whole lot of people will respond to the orig post as if it were just posted that day.

awesome being awesome :D

It took me so long to learn to spell awesome correctly.

Also, I think that when a thread is killed that sometimes you may have made such a good point that people are just like "that is awesome and they know it because that was so pithy."

And now this tread dies due to my lameness.

      She stood at the world's edge, awaiting judgment Isolation judged to be an insufficient burden The skies above required a hand, precisely two To keep the heavens high and keep the vaulted sky from crushing you She bent her knee and gritted teeth, awaiting weight Mentally preparing mind and body for the grimmest fate. Her head was bent, the firmament so hard to hold, Her back against the wall and braced against a fall And all that matters is she never ever drop it There she stands.  If they weren't full, her head would be in her hands. Heroes they came, from far and from wide to gawk at the girl who held up the sky.

      Lets get this topic back on track folks.  Please spell out your acronyms for your specific meaning of the letter combinations and then re-read your own typing before hitting the send button.  We are here to be supporting each other and not stomping on someone's last nerve.  In the past we have used our DWF (Dirty Word Filter) to interpret certain acronyms and then the members were begging us to delete the posts for them one or two leaving with injured feelings.  Community Rules 7 (about posts being in clear English and Rule 8 (being suitable for people under 18) can come into play here. Thank you.

      I could be described, I suppose, as a RWNJ.   A little stereotyping seems to be going on.  Don't complain about Trans stereotypes if you turn around and stereotype others.  A lot of RWNJs are actually decent people and get called that by people who pick up on one or two alleged beliefs.  I would rather single out influential individuals of whatever camp and call them to correction.   Trans folk are a small minority, even as small minorities go.  There are probably a lot more RWNJs running around than there are trans folk.

      They cut a lot of trees here as well.  A lot of them toward the coast end up chipped up and sent to Europe to burn in power plants.  That bothers me, seems like a dumb idea.
    • Ivy
      Most likely.   Unfortunately this was expected.  I expect it will be the norm in any GOP controlled state that hasn't already done it.  So much effort expended against so few.  I certainly haven't seen my area being overrun by trans kids.   And yeah, I fully expect them to go after my HRT next. I think those that are railing against us are much more dangerous than some non-binary high school sophomore.

      Her name is Sunny and she is so much fun. But, as you said @KymmieL, it is a challenge with a new puppy. Thankfully our 13 year old Lab is taking the addition in stride and being supremely tolerant.

      It should be the league's business whether it allows trans women to play, not the park's.   (They seem to be inclusive - good on them)

      Sticking my neck out here, but that's what I see the RWNJ's doing all the time! They always need someone or something to "fight". Everything is a contest to them; there's always a battle to be had, an opponent to defeat, a dragon to slay, then another, and another.    *Sigh* if only they'd put their energy into working with people instead of against them.

      I think i became much more emotional overall.  Perhaps because use a topical E i haven't had the swings that some folks feel but i can laugh  and cry so much easier, sometimes over situations i would never have seen before.  Perhaps my age has something to do with it, but i am also much more peaceful and accepting of the storm life keeps presenting.   Hugs,   Charlize

      I think the interpretation of the question is always going to provide a wide array of answers. Do I have a rich inner life? Yes! Why? Good question!   Circumstances often dictate how we feel within ourselves. I don't have to deal with work anymore and we've been jus' cruzin ever since. I don't have to fix anything, literal or otherwise. My wife and I live a relatively simple life and we are true partners, but deep inside, I'm not answerable to anyone except myself. So, how's that going? Well, since I came out to myself, which happened before I stopped working, I have felt an inner glow that was never apparent before. It is permanent now and it sustains me. How? Effed if I know! All I know is that even if I have down days, and there certainly have been a few, my heart, mind and soul are still smiling. I think it comes from a realization that I am finally happy just to be me.

      I had to look this acronym up.  That certainly has never been part of the LGBTQ community!  Politicians simply attempt to use peoples disgust to create the hate or fear they can "fight" against to win support and power.   Hugs,   Charlize

      Congrats, @April Marie on your new fur kid. As the mom to a 1 yr old fur kid. I know what you are going through. LOL.   Back to work after a good weekend. I hope that work doesn't drag my good weekend down. However, I believe it is wishful thinking. I will do the best that I can, if that is not enough. They can jump in a fing lake.   I have another week until my therapist appointment. So I hope I can make it. it seems my depression is getting worse. Can it, is there something lower that major?  Especially when dealing with work. So, I know I have to get out of there. I have put in for the parts at the local GM. Probably, be like Ford. OH, well nothing ventured nothing gained.      Hope everyone has a good day. Hugs, Kymmie

      If what you mean by defemination  is that folks are doubting or refusing to believe your feminity i'm sure others here have felt that.  I know i have in the past.  It seems to be part of the continuous attempt by some to see us all quietly hiding in the closet.   I don't fit in there anymore.   Hugs,   Charlize
