Why is the sky blue?

And would you, if you could, perform random surgery on an unsuspecting stranger?

Ah complex, hey?  Which was more problematic for your family, switching religious status or switching gender status?

Oh, those were both fun moments. Coming out as atheist caused a long argument with my parents that they eventually never wanted to bring up again. Coming out as transgender got me entirely blacklisted. We don't talk anymore.

Sorry to hear that.  Sad .. for them too of course.  But only they can fix it now.

The sky is blue because it is filled with little particles that look like this:  Shake Fist

And no, I would not perform random surgery on an unsuspecting stranger. Not after last time.

Yup, that's on them. I can survive without them. They seem to be having problems without me though. I'll let them figure it out in their own time.

Disabled military veteran. I'm currently enrolled in an internship program as a housewife that may get me hired full-time.

How can you tell they're having problems w/o you? Do they attempt to communicate?

There have been attempts. Usually they aren't trying very hard to get along, though. I get most of my information from my brother, who is the best brother in the world.

Naughty 

And only if my cat is being a brat.

Like if it peed on your mat? Or tried to wear your hat?
