 In other news, Ryan tells me that after I left the migrant-bashing conversation on Friday night, my parents later characterised my brother’s right-wing politics as “not Conservative enough”.

I’d really love being a changeling right about now. 
 @2307797a I think if my in-laws actually spoke their mind, they would be very much like your parents. There's a lot of it about 😔 Don't let them put you off wearing your new coat- sounds amazing! 
 @ea2ed5f7 Thanks! When I’m wearing it, I don’t think about it.

My brother is always rude about what I wear, but it didn’t occur to me that it would be my coat that set him off!

(He has basically worn nothing but black since 1992, even though he’s not a goth.) 
 @2307797a His loss! He sounds like a very unhappy person. 
 @ea2ed5f7 My family breeds them.
