Card-Carrying Member

So is your card from the NRA or the LGBTQIA? It depends on the card; sometimes, “Get off my yard!” is all that one needs to say.

My card is from the DAR. I let them know: No, I am not non-binary. Tee-hee

There was a time, around 1945 when the greatest pride was reserved for your ability to survive. Now, as it seems, with ink and a sign... our worth is announced by corpus art and colorful hair. I feel ya, mang!

Hmm...I'm not a card-carrying anything, I don't think. Well, maybe a card-carrying liberal!

Hmmm... I often wondered what such a card looked like. I thought I saw mine once, but by the time it came in the mail, after opening the envelope... I discovered I was behind the enemy's line and was shot by comrades. To survive, as a liberal, I discovered, I had to be quick on my feet for the next target.
