apparently transgirl praxis is knowing Robert's Rules of Order (from serving on a city commission) so now the PTA is drafting me to be parliamentarian?

One week. Cast your goddamn vote y'all. Up with Prop 50 in CA! Put Democrats in office if that's relevant to you in various other places!
It's the simplest and easiest thing you can do. Oppose the Republican Party—that's the single moral imperative of elections right now.

The world turns, day turns to night and day again, and they in turn become weeks and months and years.
And eventually the trans girl gives in to her yearning and goes purple haired in a cocktail dress to her cousin's wedding. And is cherished no less thereby.

On my way to be a respectable normie parent and do the meet and greet for new families at Tiny's new school. Funny how time both flies and drags.
