In reply to the discussion: Congratulate me. I got uninvited for Thanksgiving! [View all]BH liberal
(35 posts)21. Far too many families...
will be going through the same drama over the holidays. My sister's side of the family is overpopulated with cacklin' righties who are true cult members. My sister is the lone liberal. Her husband, who was a regular Limbaugh listener back in the day and an initial Trump backer in 2016, went mute during Trump's first term after the cold political light of day began to break for him. Their children, who refused to get Covid vaccines and wear masks, have infected my sister and bro-in-law three times. Their last bout resulted in three days of intensive care for both of them. I will not visit when their family gathers. It is a sad situation.

Odd how some are willing to listen to the conman all day long but close ears to family members

Hey, Kentucky Woman! I just moved to a senior village and yours sounds great. I wish ours supported low income seniors.

Your planned Thanksgiving sounds beautiful. You've been "disinvited" to suffering to be invited to real joy.

Congrats! "Pissant". Heh. Sounds like a hopelessly (and willfully ignorant ) lost sect.

I remember reading of a guy who only see relative at TG, show up, eat, and leave. Not talk to anyone.
