    A couple of days ago I read that there was a controversy over a school placing litter boxes in bathroom for children who identify as “furries”. The story turned out to be false, but it did make me wonder - how far are schools going along with kids who identify as animals?

    Not likely. I hate to be the bearer of bad news but this isn't benign.

    Most career criminals (versus emotional spur of the moment crimes) collect "memorials". Serial killers often take something from their victims as a reminder of the actual murder.

    Pedophiles typically use teddy bears for...

    1. Luring a child away from any adults around (ie. hiding behind a tree when the kids are out for recess)




    2. Or as a surrogate of a child to feed some emotional need to "feel close" but because they are usually very socially awkward with real people their own age, they like the *comfort* of an inanimate object because they don't have to socialize with it.

    A recent example is the case building against Gaetz. The only reason an adult would want to hang out with kids and teenagers is some kind of mental block where they are stuck at a specific age. Clearly, the first thought people have upon leaning about his possible involvement in human trafficking is "Why didn't he choose females 1-2 years older?"

    The reason is "his sexual attraction is to females who aren't "legally" adults. The **high** of the conquest also includes knowingly committing a crime and there have been several reports that he bragged about this behavior to his colleagues. That, alone, tells us that he is not mentally stable. Most criminals want to hide their crimes.

    Think about what he did. He had to have known that the people he was boasting to either had daughters or granddaughters in the age range of the females he was bragging about being with. I know several people that lost their jobs because the IT Department pinged them to be looking for pornography during work hours on their employers' computers. That has the be dumbest thing in the entire world. But, as with Gaetz, he probably thought he was untouchable. I haven't crunched the numbers but it seems that Republicans are more willing to overlook transgressions moreso that Democrats or Independents are. I mean, they elected a criminal that cheated on all his wives, had unprotected sex with a hooker and has some disgusting <whatever the hell that is> toward his oldest daughter. And, the overlooked his comments about peeping in on underaged girls while they were dressing and "grabbing some by the p****".



    3. Some pedophiles use teddy bears as s*x toys, often cutting holes just for that purpose.

    However, I am not prosecuting or diagnosing Prince Andrew or claiming that I have any intimate knowledge of what he may have done. Nevertheless, it's not really **normal** for an old man to have teddy bears or require his maid to rearrange them. For me, that pings #2 the most. He wants the rearranged so that he can fantasize that they are living beings and moving about. Studies have shown that pedophilia is one of the mental illness that has no cure and it's brazen to even make that kind of request to a third party.

    I agree. It is not benign....and seems to be something deeper thatn just being" eccentric."

    Much, much deeper.

    I have no idea where I heard it but way, way back someone told me that it was common for the royal family to marry cousins and other relatives to keep the blood line "pure".




    A loooong time ago, a customer came into the place where I was working and gave me a check to pay her bill. That was pre-scanners so I had to input the check information into the system. I started to type her last name and it kind of jolted me because it was printed twice. Like this...

    -------------------------------

    LastName--LastName

    At that time, I didn't connect the dots quickly enough but my facial expression gave me away (I do NOT have a poke face). She volunteered that her last name was hyphenated because her husband was her 2nd or 3rd cousin. I forget what country she was from but it wasn't an American (USA) last name. I've seen that a few more times since then and managed not to jolt in front of the customer!

    -------------------------------

    The only reason this connects to the conversation is the customer mentioned above that she was Catholic and in her culture it was common practice to marry a blood relative so many steps removed. I always thought it was against the law here because of the higher risk for birth defects but I don't know what the real deal is about it.


    I went to Catholic school and I got in trouble for asking my teacher who Adam and Eve married to have kids. My mother spanked me, she called one of her brothers to come spank me and my dad spanked me when he got home from work. I learned that it's a baaaaaasssdddddd idea to ask nuns those questions. LOL


    In fairness, now that Sister Kathryn is long gone, I will confess that I took a small bottle to school one day and snuck around the corner to siphon off some "holy water". I put it in whatever that nasty stuff was my mother drank (I don't know hard liquors - maybe whiskey?). I waited around the corner and watched her take a sip. I have NO idea what I thought would happen but nothing happened. So, yeah, I never confessed to our priest that I broke that Commandment (so I anoint you my confessor ;-) and I never asked an adult a question about the inconsistencies in the Bible. ;-)

    I'll tell Winnie the Poo to be on the look out and beware.

    Mia, Mia, Mia say it isn't so. Holy Water? Umm Umm Um. I suppose you lit the candles when nobody was looking. Fes up girl we know it was you. Every year for four years strait Mother Superior threatened to expel me, have me ex-communicated, fail me or ban me from the school because I brought up controversial questions to the other sisters in the religious class. They should have known that if you are going to teach silly stuff be prepared for silly questions.
