TPT#436 - There Was Gendery Fun Stuff

While George was wandering himself all over the western US, he encountered a lot of folks who were doing a lot of gendery stuff.

TPT#428 - Sandwich That's Been At 7-Eleven Too Long

When westerners call the generational status of caring for children and elders simultaneously "Sandwich Generation", Jess thinks that makes it sound like flavorful fillings in an easily handled form, but we have found it to be far from tasty.

TPT#418 - I Wanted It Fixed For Everybody
