My male lover is mad at me for standing up to his sexist, racist beliefs.

Jolanta comments on Dec 1, 2020:

Is he an ex, or do you still see each other for sex?

@LiterateHiker Good on you.

Jolanta replies on Dec 2, 2020:

Well David, he is my ex brother in law. So It definitely was contempt of court in his case.

I'm no fan of religious symbols, but this was amusing

Leelu comments on Dec 2, 2020:

Cute. Never thought of Santa as religious.

@yvilletom It is all that milk and cookies, he probably needs to go behind a big tree a lot of times during his ride.

I know several people who love to tout the left is gonna take away your guns or I support the 2nd Amendment lets see how many are brave enough to share this. It always cracks me up and I can't help but respond. I'll say, I support the 2nd Amendment but be honest how many of you have been at the ...

@silverotter11 Yes, every time I have been to the US I am surprised how very seldom one sees black and whites together and I am not talking about couples but just friends.

Jolanta replies on Dec 1, 2020:

@David_Cooper He spent six years in prison not because he would walk naked but because of contempt of court, each time, nothing to do with religion. There are no laws against nudity in the UK. Only if someone objects to it while there are children around. His contempt came when the judge told him not to do it with people around and he would not listen.

If you can clean up after her, why on all earth do you have anyone coming around to do it?

@LovinLarge It’s not a judgment, don’t get your knickers in a twist, it’s a question.

Two hours sleep last night. This day is going to be tough one.

Why?

Jolanta replies on Nov 30, 2020:

@FrayedBear Probably some days I do not activate either my body or my brain anymore. That must be the problem, or answer.

Is it ok to affirm someone's untrue beliefs?

Jolanta comments on Nov 29, 2020:

No, it’s not, however if your life depended on it, lie through your nose like there are no tomorrows

Jolanta replies on Nov 30, 2020:

@FrayedBear Come on, come on you would do the same.

He is just jealous because Mr Rogers is so loved.

@Canndue I only ever seen snippets of him as I do not live in the US and we did not have him here as far as I know, but I always thought that he spoke very nicely.

Morals Without Religion? How?

Leelu comments on Nov 30, 2020:

The Golden Rule which predates the bible and Abrahamic religions. "Do unto others as you would have others do unto you." It's really all the morals/ethics/laws you need.

Jolanta replies on Nov 30, 2020:

I don't think that would work for psychopaths.

Jolanta comments on Nov 27, 2020:

Oh what a silly woman she is. She would be ever so surprised if she knew that a lot of her friends do very naughty things in the bedroom that are not conventional.

Jolanta replies on Nov 27, 2020:

@Canndue I would but that is just far, far too personal.

Happy Thanksgiving, y'all! I've found that the less I expect, the more thankful I am.

Jolanta comments on Nov 27, 2020:

Not sure that thanks giving is a thing one should celebrate. It is somehow very insensitive to the Native Americans. Maybe it should be changed to something els.

Jolanta replies on Nov 27, 2020:

@zeuser Wow, Black Friday, what does it tell you about how they feel about Native Americans. There doesn't seem to be anything positive in that.

I visited the Herring Museum in Great Yarmouth (Norfolk, England) with my brother & sister-in- law whilst on a visit to them last year. They live in Norwich, the county town. It was a huge industry at one time. This is the Shoals of Herring sung by Ewan MacColl...I thought you’d find the ...
