More thoughts on Question Time

Explaining: I booked a seat above the Government, so that's why I switched sides around 1:50pm. It was warm, so I took my jacket off. Plus I feel really good about that dress, and I'm totally behind my armpit hair: those plus the mutton chops are my eccentricities. That's a size 12. That's the advantage of my fem body: regular clothes look good on me, which is a massive privilege for a trans person. 🏳️‍⚧️ - I feel like I probably would have scored it differently from above the Opposition, so that's something to consider. The Press Gallery would be a more objective viewpoint, but whether that's the purpose of the game isn't really clear yet. The scores add another layer to my satire, but I'd really like it if people started forming teams and playing too. I'm likely attending on Wednesdays, as that's when I get my dole money. I'll give everyone 50 points for the first session.👍

More fashion: I lost my belt in the move to Johnsonville. Mum had one, but it wasn't my size. I felt like I fit that dress very well, though, so though it might have accentuated my bust, that dress already does. Also, I simplified the scoring. I could have taken 2.5 points from Ayesha, but that's slightly silly. MPs on the team = points. 👩‍💻 I'm open to suggestions; these are my ideas after that first session.
