I wonder again into that thought,
Where am i going with this?
Whom and what? and why? and How did it?
By ship, by plane, by train, by automobile.
By house?
What gear is it in?
And where did someone put those window wipers?
‘yay gay marriage’ yh but can we talk about the fact that we now have a marriage bill going through that allows trans* people’s spouses to veto their GRCs even if they’re abusive.
