I grew up in Seattle. My mom remarried a man who had a brother who was a King County Sheriff's Deputy. His name was Terry and he was gay. 1/x

Eleven years ago, I wrote to Tom Stoppard to ask about this coup de théâtre from 1949. It took me down an unexpected rabbit hole - in memory of Stoppard, here's what I found.

Late Sunday afternoon and it’s crafting time for me.
1. Working in the ends on a project for a secret Santa. Done!
2. Sewing up and working in ends on a project for a little present for someone. In progress!

Time to go after the poverty-wage, zero-hours employers and the slum landlords, the real welfare scroungers.
70% of the additional spending from removing the two-child limit will go to families who are in work. This is targeting support for low-income working households who are being priced out of a decent standard of living despite doing everything asked of them.
