you may not know this, but i bet your city or town or municipality has a website. i bet that website has some contact forms or email addresses on it. i bet you can use them to put together a message in about 5 minutes! i bet it’s almost as easy as signing a national petition.

which is to say: i’m noticing, like most other people, that the national level discussion on really important and long overdue issues is flagging. but the internet and news cycle is not the only battleground, and you will be pleasantly surprised by how easy it is to—

—fight those battles at home, on your own turf, with much more immediate impact, and they are so, so important.

A few guys voicing their anxiety about speeding on a street where their children play and suggesting a radar speed sign. Despite catching all of two meetings where this was mentioned, I walked back home one day and–yep–there was a radar speed sign up.

A persistent force of 3-5ish loud residents coming to zoning and council meetings because they did not want a drive through style restaurant moving into a particular area where there were already major issues with traffic congestion and safety. This eventually resulted in a Chik-fil-a having its planning proposal shot down by council such that the lot is now likely to house an Aldi. I am getting low cost groceries instead of bigotry chicken in my neighborhood because of a D&D party’s worth of regular speakers.

A turnout of residents shouting down an attempt to reduce the amount of funding for the community Juneteenth celebration until Council backed down. One meeting. Roughly a dozen people + their kids speaking about the significance of the holiday. The celebration ended up having its full funding restored.

I get what you're saying, but... canonically Fareed is "only" in it for the science. The ... possibility. That's his passion.

Human morals mean nothing to him (anymore). In fact he canonically turns humans to then kill them and uses the (then) vampiric body parts for other vampires! For example.

As per Viktor, there is the concern somewhere how Lestat might react, but Fareed is fathered by Seth, and twenty years... are nothing to Seth, and that surely must reflect on Fareed and his outlook, given he is absolutely immortal and almost indestructible right after turning, given Seth's powerful blood.

In fact, if we want to point fingers - then I would say Gabrielle should have told Lestat as soon as she knew. Because she knew and she did not exactly bend herself out of shape to tell him, on the contrary. -.-

Sex cells, egg and sperm, are what are called haploids, i.e. they only have HALF the normal amount of DNA. It's why children look kind of like their mother and kind of like their father. This is High School level biology.

Do not let them erase this. Do not let them tell you he meant "my heart goes out for you."

This man is the grandson of a Canadian Nazi sympathizer who moved to South Africa BECAUSE he thought the apartheid was just the coolest.

He has a gaggle of kids specifically because he believes his genes are superior and need to be spread to improve humanity.

He has thrown his support behind the neonazi party in Germany and the far right party in the UK, not to mention how far he's wormed up the ass of the Republican party.

He threw two sieg heil salutes back to back at the inauguration of the president of the United States and is trying to scrub the evidence off the internet.

Re: Anne Rice and menstruation.

I know, I know, we love to focus on this moment in Mennoch, but for the moment please allow me to redirect your attention, theydies and gentlethems, to Anne Rice's seminal porn works, the Beauty series, in which every other bodily fluid is mentioned, but oddly, despite the presence of literally hundreds of young, nubile "princesses," nobody ever, ever, has a period.

Wow. The patience, kindness and calm communication skills. Outstanding.

They recognized that the mother was also expressing a vulnerable truth about herself - that she felt like a bad mother because her child was expressing gender feelings she wasn’t equipped to help with - and met her where she was, a concerned parent with limited information - to point her where she should be heading, research and resources.
