I see a lot of talk about “actually check ins can be so hot” or “scene negotiations can be sooo hot” or whatever and sure, they can be, explicit consent can be hot, but also.
It doesn’t have to be.
It’s okay if your negotiations are clumsy and awkward, if you kinda slip out of your roles for check ins during scenes, if the consent discussions aren’t the hot parts for you. They don’t need to be hot. They’re necessary for everyone’s safety, and having a safe and healthy environment for your kink is infinitely more important than avoiding awkwardness at all costs.
You and your partner(s) are worth the possible awkwardness. Consent is mandatory, even when it isn’t sexy.
This is great and a reminder that if your sex (of any kind) gets awkward or silly or clumsy, it’s okay and normal and it doesn’t have to ruin anything, just go with it. Sometimes sex is clumsy and funny and gross and fun. Accepting that these moments are a normal part of sex will help you have better sex.
extremely fucking weird to have to convince leftists that fighting for a better public education system & better wages for teachers is not, like, the Lame Establishment Dem take or whatever.
It is not Cool and Radical to advocate for the dissolution of the entire public education system in favor of Everyone Doing Their Own Thing. what you’re describing is libertarianism, and a system that directly and dramatically benefits fascist right-wingers and child abusers.
the community-centered child rearing yall love to talk about exists. it desperately needs to be improved, but the bones are here, and they’re already doing a lot of legwork in the fight against aggressive nuclear family isolation.
i hate star trek because every time theyre like “oh my god the skringles have broken the crankus treaty with the skronglies which mean the flongles are starving because they cant get binkbonk berries” and every time im like “oh my god they cant get binkbonk berries…”
This post came across my dash at the most serendipitous time: I saw it while watching DS9, paused it, read the post out to my wife, we both had a mild chuckle, I unpaused the episode, only for an alien merchant to dramatically explain to Quark that she couldn’t sell him 100,000 vats of Tulaberry wine, because there weren’t enough Tulaberries on the planet. Of course leading to my wife screeching with absolute delight “oh no! Quark can’t get his binkbonk berries!”

something that rly creeps me out…..occasionally ill see videos or articles for christians or christian missionaries that say something like “what you need to do is make friends with non christians and really get them to trust you and THEN you start preaching to them and bringing them to jesus” and that is….man how much would it hurt to know that the only reason someone’s hanging out with you is to convert you to a religion you were never interested in. maybe this is a real friend, someone you really really feel like you connect to, and all of a sudden you cant hang out with them without being scared they’ll bring out the jesus stuff.
charlie youre blowing my third eye WIDE open
hahahaha like a year ago I tweeted “Christianity’s attitude toward Jews resembles nothing so much as the attitude of a man toward a woman who won’t fuck him” and people got SO MAD at me
“Christ on a cracker” well actually I think you’ll find Christ is the cracker. And also the wine. But you wouldn’t know that you fucking protestant heathen
I wish I was a female tiger because then if I was talking to someone and I was getting off topic I could say “but I tigress,” and then kill and eat them because I am a tiger
