Thank you for posting them. I particularly liked the Thanksgiving scene where the little girl was complaining about the cranberry sauce and the dad said, "...sorry, I made it a couple of days ago when I was sobbing uncontrollably". Boy I can relate to this. I just can't get this pit out of my stomach. I still truly can't believe he is going to be president.

I've been talking with a group of women who I was very politically active with in the 90s, Lesbian Avengers and such and we've been like... wow... we need to dig out the old tool kits. The re-surfacing of that energy- timelined with DTWOF and Hothead Paisan. Digging into the fuel. I think a lot of things are going to be resurfacing.

Anya and easygoingfemme, thank you so much for posting!
Anya I can totally relate to the salty tears and easygoingfemme we definitely need some lesbian avengers and other activists out there! I have just had my head in the sand but hope to come out of it. I am pretty sure Alison has moved onto other things. It would be awesome to have more, but it was great for her to give us a Thanksgiving treat!

new to the thread.
Howdy y'all!
Am an old leatherdyke. Marched with the Leather Contigent at the 1987 March on Washington for gay rights. I use the term "dyke" as a reclaimed reference to being a lesbian like POC reclaim derogatory terms within their individual groups. Thanks for posting the links, but couldn't get on them. Something about exceeded bandwith. Will try again later. Need a good laugh.

Hey cathexis, as I am writing this the site is back up! I hope it is when you try it. Just goes to show there are a lot of damn dykes to watch out for! We go around crashing websites, lol.

Thanks, we dykes must be watched lest we corrupt and/or destroy the whole world. lol
Great site. Hope she will draw even more. We all need a bit of cheer after that election, Anya. He has caused much fear and dread without even taking office yet. Hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving. I had a good one except that the Colts lost horribly! Partner is a Steelers fan so a little good hearted tension at first. Not a peep about politics at family meal, had a great time chatting about else for distraction.
