PSA:

If or when I mention politics or political parties in this journal, I do not mean you. I don't mean your uncle or your aunt or your grandmother. I am very angry at the direction the US is taking, but my anger is directed at the architects of that change: Rove, Bush, Cheney, the Democratic and Republican senators who did nothing to stop it, the "free" press that did no investigation.

HOWEVER. In the course of the last few years, I have heard my relationship compared to fucking animals. I have been called a child molestor, a destroyer of our country, a traitor. My mom's lost access to her medication. My partner lost her health insurance. In the current election, the Republican party has run a campaign that seeks to deny me adoption rights, marriage rights, access to the medications that keep me from bleeding to death every few months because the pharmacist objects. The political is very personal, and I am angry. I will not apologize for being angry. If that hurts your feelings because you feel I'm being too harsh on your party, then I'm sorry, but I will continue to speak. I suggest you get thicker thin or stop reading.

As always, every day is defriending amnesty day.
