Strike Off Those Fetters, Dash Off Those Letters
Forgot to Turn on Comments for this One: But I have now remedied that. Let the healing begin. That Old Bisexual Problem: “And don’t give me any nonsense about relationships having to be limited to two. Being bi necessitates either alternating serial relationships, or a standing relationship that involves three at a minimum. This is …
That’s What She Thinks
Always More Letters
Roe Stuff: I’m not so sure overturning Roe would have that effect. To be sure the pro-abortionists will curse and howl, and march and boycott, but it would not have to make interactions between states more difficult.
