    If you can’t joke about death then what? I made jokes with my mother about having lost two toes to diabetes. Just couldn’t count past 18 anymore. She loved the manicures and pedicures insurance paid for. She was twisted.

    My joking helps with coping with traumas. World’s greatest defense mechanism.

    And I’ve been shaving my head for decades so I’ve heard jokes since the 90’s. All of them.





  • Well put. I am also not young. I remember the hate and the use of that word as well. It really does weird me out at times that the queer community is as accepted as it has become. I hope it will one day be a normalized part of society. Many of my old friends and family would welcome that.

    As for that woman you wrote of, I agree with you except for her being pitied. She deserves nothing other than to be remembered for her actions so they will hopefully not be allowed to happen again.
