I have had a stressful week.

Issues regarding family (I cant go into details) have caused a great amount of sadness (and stress), Sharon has apparently injured herself and is currently not able to work, and two different news articles have really brought me down.

The first one involved a second suicide attempt by Chelsa Manning, currently in a male jail despite being trans, the second involved the Progressive Conservative party of Alberta making as part of their platform a rejection of gay-straight alliances for LGBT kids in schools, and a rejection of trans kids being recognized and protected.

Sigh ... I will be in my blanket fort if anybody needs me ...
