TPT#450 - The Drainage Department

As a blended family, we have never celebrated a holiday on its assigned calendar date. (ACAB = Assigned Calendar At Birth?) We had lots of holiday queerness in all senses of the word, from a visit by Cousin Vinnie for LGBTQIA+ holiday outings, to adjusting our traditions now that the kids are grown.

TPT#449 - Naughty Dog Stories

The boys have lived elsewhere for over a month, but we're still their parents. We also had been pet parents, but we recently lost Bob and so we're down to one dependent mammal.

TPT#447 - It Was Manageable Suicidality (Mental Health Treatment, Pt. 2)

We continue our discussion of George's mental health care over his life, from his first access to anti-depressants during grad school, through to more modern behavioral, somatic, and pharmaceutical strategies that have helped him.

CORRECTION: At 17:35, Jess references a book that should be correctly titled "You Are The One You've Been Waiting For", not "looking for".

TPT#445 - Friend In Law

We went to a friend's gay wedding, saw another friend, and hung out with a bunch of weird straight people. Or maybe straight weird people. Or maybe we're being redundant.

TPT#444 - Where I Thought I Should Be

We live in the american inter-mountain west. Many queer and trans folks, as well as members of other marginalized communities, have had cause recently to consider emigrating from the US, so we discussed some of our friends' and acquaintances' stories, as well as our current mindset on this topic.

TPT#442 - I Didn't Think You Were Serious (Evictions, Pt. 1)

Some months ago, we gave our adult children a set of expectations they needed to meet in order to continue living with us. They did not meet the expectations, so we needed to enforce the consequences, but we still care about them, so we tried to be kind in doing so.

The second part of this story follows next week!

TPT#441 - Go Play Amongst Yourselves

Cousin Vinnie was over as they prepared to take George to Hawai'i on vacation. We discussed their recent adventures in gender, being about as far into their nonbinary transmasculinization as Jess is, but living in a much bigger city, and neither possessing nor desiring passing privilege.
