I'll go first [CW racism]

"Did you know they just passed a law in Afghanistan that women aren't even talk to each other anymore?" - My Zionist cousin at Xmas dinner.

The rest of the family proceeded to spend half an hour ranting about how terrible Arabs are.

    Our Christmas is a 3 day event starting on the 23rd. We do Christmas on the 24th and we just hang out and play games on actual Christmas. I spend most of the time heavily masking or dissociating but this time I was coming back from an autistic meltdown/shutdown so I mostly just scrolled on my phone and avoided people.

    We played Trivial Pursuit since it's a yearly tradition and a question came up about "most trusted news anchor" and the answer was John Stewart. My partner's aunt said "Ewww yuck" or something like that but she gets her news from Fox and Newsmax anyway so not surprising. But that was probably the only real thing that got brought up.

    They played Chameleon after and got really fucking loud to the point that I ended up putting my Loops in and signaled to my partner that I was overstimulated and it was time to head home.
