There are horses everywhere, so obviously there will be horses asses everywhere. It is normal in the south. It is an exception in civilized places.
Don't be sorry for my childhood; it was quite educational. I learned not to hate; it's too fucking expensive in personal terms. I learned to fight rather well. I still surprise my trainer occasionally. I'm quite at home being alone. I don't need to be, but it is fine if I am. I love and I am loved.
The south was a very adversarial environment for me; I'm out of the cesspool for the time being. I can deal with the south now without taking it personally. I don't really care what they are up to down there, I am concentrating on being a decent mammal today. Have a great day...
