CIRCLE WITH A DOT

@MostlyHarmless the long explanation and sarcasm makes it a little more &ickish than I would like. Much better to have a clear, large print sign that just says, "no dogs above this height permitted inside" and just leave it at that.

So my mom had lived happily with a racist husband for all her adult life, thinking the only thing they were missing was kids. She eventually got divorced, because of her outrage over an infidelity, but being married to a bigot who probably did a great deal of damage to innocent people's lives was not a deal breaker.

And I could never forgive her after knowing that.

My parents were divorced when I was young. But I had to live with my dad for a year and a half during middle school. He was both an ex-cop and a racist. He didn't talk to me much, but when he did he said racist things to try and casually indoctrinate me into his disgusting beliefs and bias. I was too old and suspicious of him for that to take, fortunately.

Here's a thing - I was adopted, and my parents had a 15 year marriage with no kids before I came along.
