My cousin, Georgina

I recently visited with my cousin, Georgina, whom I hadn’t seen in a long time.

While she visited, we saw a program about vaccines, which triggered Georgina’s anger.  She was very upset that people don’t trust the science of vaccine safety. 

When I complimented Georgina for not being distracted from the scientific evidence, she diverted to criticizing people who claim that the 2020 election was stolen for Donald Trump with voting abuses.  “People believe what they want to believe” she bemoaned, “regardless of the facts”.

I complimented her for focusing on reality rather than conspiracies, as well as acknowledging truths that seem irrefutable to me.

While encouraging, it was a bit incongruous to hear Georgina make these comments.

Georgina is my aunt Laura’s child.  I remember seeing Aunt Laura obviously pregnant before Georgina’s birth and seeing her breastfeed Georgina.

I also remember that a paternity test confirmed that Harvey is Georgina’s father, as Aunt Laura had maintained.

But Georgina does not accept that Laura and Harvey are her parents.  Georgina claims they were assigned as her parents on her birth certificate, but he knows that Taylor Swift gave birth to her and that Travis Kelce is her father.

When I asked her how that could be possible, as both Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce are younger than she is, she got exasperated, saying that no matter how much I wanted to deny the truth, she knew who her parents are.

Her parentage beliefs are even more interesting because she identifies as “African-American”.  You can imagine she wasn’t happy when I observed that Laura and Harvey and Taylor and Travis are all Caucasian.  She responded that you can’t trust the racial identity that was assigned on her birth certificate or on their birth certificates. 

As further proof of the inaccuracy of her birth certificate, she told me she was born in Liberia, not Boston (as printed on her birth certificate).  The deception of her birth certificate is exposed, she said, when you realize that the doctor assigned as having done the delivery never even set foot in Africa.

As everything on her birth certificate was arbitrarily assigned, you can’t trust her supposed birth date either.  The inaccuracy of her assigned birth date suggests to her that Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce also have inaccurate birth dates.

I can’t imagine how she got to be so big if she was born fairly recently, but she maintains that she was a giant baby whose birth weight and length was made up because the doctor didn’t think anyone would believe that a baby female could be so large and heavy.

Oh yeah, one more thing: Georgina’s birth certificate shows her given name was “George”.  Although I remember seeing the appropriateness of her gender “assignment” when “she” was bathed as an infant, she maintains, of course, that her name and gender were assigned with no scientific justification.
