I get the feeling this BBC journalist waited their whole life just for this moment.... 🀣

A little Christmas Eve millet. (We celebrate Yule at least as much as Christmas, but the #cockatiels aren’t picky about when treats happen.)

I've wrapped my head around the idea that this is their problem, and I can't fix it. But it's also my problem to deal with. So I do. But it still makes me angry and sad.
I'm the one with the parrot.

Second post-
Once a year or so, one of them will drop me a text or e-mail, to remind me that if I just change my ways and look at things from their side, I can rejoin my family. Despite spending time with them being like death by a thousand paper cuts, I miss it. Not enough to go back, but yeah. Which sucks, and sucks more during times like now.

TL:DR - General whining 

First post-
Background: Raised Mormon (an ultra-conservative flavor), big family. I'm gay, so that didn't work. Tried for 35 years to show that I'm a decent, successful, productive human - being gay invalidated everything else. Finally got sick of it and wrote them out of my life, about 10 years ago.

It's 33F (1C) outside and raining. The streets are covered in Satan's own slushie. But I just spent an hour stomping around to all the bakeries in a half mile radius, collecting the best of their remaining pastries for breakfast tomorrow, and you know what? It was delightful. #joinIn

What if, now stay with me here, we invent a gun that fires thoughts and prayers?
