I just have to ask-was a safe space designated at your place of work? Where was it? I think I would have made it either in a bathroom stall or outdoors and facing north in the winter, of course...

there was no safe space designated but a conversation was had about this microaggression BS. i have to say even the libs in my ofc were put off by it as were the mgrs having to run it. Bottom line if people are considerate and no one is going out of their way to look for offense everyone should be hunky dory. i told you at these kinds of things i have more than once stated that i am offended at the presumption that all in the ofc are of a like mind politically and all liberal and that i found it every bit as offensive as the stupid stuff they mentioned.

Good for you! It would serve them right if you filed a complaint, calling their presumptions microaggressions that offend you-I’d love to hear what they would do then...

"finally has it back. not sure how he finally got through to them but he has the phone in hand." Maybe he unknowingly had the android hitchhiking mode enabled. That works pretty well unless it gets detoured into Philadelphia.

Longing for autoschediastic revivification, the bereft phenom wept.
Such a hideous word revivification is. I confronted the word 30 years ago hoping to never see it again. Then came along autoschediasm.

"Such a hideous word revivification is." Oh, come now. It's not as bad as autochthones. Besides, it breathes new life into a discussion.

Well, I must admit that it was in fact revivification that suffered my fickle exploits.
A good topic; though — words phonetically indigenous.

Hi there, I’ve been trying to get online as time & capabilities permit… Life inside nursing home #2 isn’t so bad, considering what’s been going on lately in the outside world politically – pretty much what you make of it, actually.
