As a cis-male, I recognize that I’m terrible at this. My remedy for it has been to live alone for the past several years, where I’m ‘forced’ to deal with the day to day minutia of maintaining a domicile and controlling my own space. Not having the crutch of a live-in partner to clean things up or to maintain order has…

I think it’s time we start seriously asking why we have sanitary regulations at all when it comes to food handling. I mean, neither solution is really acceptable. Gloves for the reasons you outline, but excessive handwashing is REALLY bad for skin and leads to all manner of dermatological disorders for the handlers.
We…

Until we can remove humans from both areas of work and let sterile machines do all of the handling, we just need to accept potential poisoning as a cost of business for not doing things ourselves.

While I typically try to refrain from any correlation between economics and relationship theory (because gross), the Economic Loss Aversion Theory does seem to make a lot of sense from my own personal experience and from the experiences of others.

I guess I’m going to have to be the asshole here and say that, for some people, knowing that a potential partner is from a bad family is, in and of itself, a dealbreaker, since that often means that person is holding a raft of emotional wreckage that they may not feel like managing in a potential partner.

I think for me, it’s the romanticization of such acts of daredevilry as though it’s some sort of baseline of genuine human experience and that, if we’re not risking our lives on some damn fool endeavour or another before breakfast every day, then we’re wasting our lives.

It sounds from the timing that it’s exactly his plan. It’s oddly heroic in it’s own way that he’s falling on his own sword just to avoid yet another destabilizing shutdown, which, ironically will actually ‘help’ the Republican cause next year since they won’t have several a fresh shutdown in voter’s recent memory…

Carly Fiorina is like that token member who’s OKCupid profile starts with the same generic pablum about “I’m not one of ‘those’ women. People just see me as one of the guys. I get along so much better with men because I don’t do drama or emotions. I just bro it up with my bro brethren like one of the other bros, but…

Which was even more bizarre with the smug air of assumption that ‘we all know’ what this is without even being told. Today was the first time I’ve heard any of those terms before, and I don’t think I’m ‘that’ out of the loop.

No, that only happens if you take pleasure from it. As long as you lie back and think of England, your Rose is fine.

So we’re apparently cats, now.

If we're talking about 50-100 years down the line, shouldn't we be looking toward the notion of eliminating implantation altogether rather than continue to stick women with the burden of pregnancy?

also, isn't the term usually 'Judeo-Christian'? Did she really flip the phrasing JUST to put 'Christian' in the lead position of that word?

For the record, I did my part and voted. But I understand the complaints of those who despair about the system and refuse to participate.

Entirely possible. These days, with the way streaming licenses flip on and off almost daily, one never knows how long a thing may be legally available. I've learned to take a carpe firm approach, watching stuff as I find it before it goes away.

Just pulled up my CR viewing history to confirm it's still there. Seems to be filed under it's Japanese name: Hourou Masuko Wandering Son. Still there, it seems. :-)

Also it would seem that there's an official YouTube channel:

Revolutionary Girl Utena has been on my list for nearly two decades, now. Anyone know the best way to see it, as I don't see any streams through any of the legal avenues. Am I looking in the wrong place?

Do it. Wandering Son is moving, emotionally affecting and hit me right in the proverbial feels. I'm straight, but the reviews I've read by those who actually do deal with issues of gender identity/identify Trans seem to indicate that it's also authentic.

Fellow Portlander, I presume? :-P
