It seemed real weird to talk about the parade and not mention Michel since he's the only gay character mentioned up to that point but I just assumed he doesn't actually live in Stars Hollow proper but it seems more likely that they just don't care as much about keeping things consistent as the viewers do.

I can only come with a vibrator and I honestly never considered it masturbation when I use it as part of sex with a partner- it's still "coming during sex" for me. He just helps me out, in whatever way I need. Maybe if you approach it that way it will be more natural for both of you.

That seems like a reasonable response. I don't understand people taking this advice so seriously- the Quickies are always tongue in cheek and not super serious. Not having orgasms CAN sometimes be a mental block and some people react to pot well and it would allow them to be more in the moment BUT that is certainly…

I mean, it just depends on the person. I couldn't orgasm for many years and I still considered myself as having many pleasurable, fun sexual experiences. And there wasn't any particular dire reason I wasn't having them aside from needing a very particular, very strong vibration I hadn't found yet. I didn't consider it…

I'm the opposite- I don't like how I feel high if I haven't had a couple drinks. To each their own!

My husband showers twice a day (you can imagine how dry his skin gets but he's very greasy, he and his family all get "grease attacks" if they don't shower often enough) while I haven't showered since Sunday. Kind of gross, but I just do dry shampoo/wear my hair up in a bun/deodorant and some perfume. BUT if sex feels…

I've had okay turkey (fried injected kind) but my fam does just a regular roast one now and the white meat is dry and bland and the dark meat is gamey and I just don't care for it. We also have brisket and sometimes tamales so I can get my protein on elsewhere, luckily.

No one else seems to rep mac and cheese but I'm weirdly not a fan of the main Thanksgiving faves (dressing is just like wet bread with celery in it, our family gravy has like egg chunks floating in it which is just gross to me, green bean casserole is whatever but canned green beans make me so mad when fresh green…

We will have a turkey and a ham but my mom usually likes to have a beef option just because she loves beef and we have a big family. I don't particularly care for turkey or ham so this suits me just fine. We get a big ass delicious brisket from a local BBQ place and it's great.

That hint of threat was what made it feel so real and intense but I was also so relieved it didn't go there because he just doesn't seem like the kind of guy who would do that.

I mean, yes, she's being a backwards dummy, but I wouldn't go as far as to call her a threatening homophobe. You know she would be the type to "love her gays!" (in that annoying way women sometimes say such things.) She just is turned off by the whiff of bisexuality in her partner which is of course rooted in fucked…

I generally agree that it doesn't need to be narrowed down so fully on a regular basis (male, female, genderqueer or gender non-conforming seem to cover it in most cases) EXCEPT in the context of dating, that might be the one time when getting it all out there makes sense. It's not a government form, it's a hookup…

I usually can appreciate "offensive" humor if there is some kind of intelligence/commentary in it but he just really is almost so broad that it becomes niche! Seeing him be normal and kind of charming made me think that perhaps once he gets the message that his loud/tasteless/gross brand doesn't sell outside of…

Booyah!

We're just too big of a state (has any Texan ever said this?!) We have 4 huge cities (3 of which are in the top 10 biggest cities in the US) and then just too many miles of not-cities in between! But it seems like people think Austin is the only part of Texas with progressives in it and that's just not the case.

I do assume that. I refuse to jump to the absolute worst case scenario. Will Republicans do their usual voter suppression, obstructionist bullshit? Of course, but things will balance out like they always do. There have been fairish elections since GW Bush (and that situation was certainly fucked) and I have faith…

Hey, Texas is gonna go blue eventually, we had less votes for Trump than Romney and my city (Dallas, which only relatively recently went blue) is getting even bluer (and that blueness will fan out to more counties, likely.) We're trying to be less terrible!

My husband and I have a very similar way of coping- sort of analytical and dispassionate- for the most part so we've been very simpatico. Until last night when he told me he won't see his grandmother at Christmas because she voted for Trump and I was like "come on, bruh." She's old as hell, her husband died this year,…

Agreed, that shit is goofy. That's one thing about beer that's great, is that there are so many styles and things to nerd out on, no need to act like there's only one kind.

I see what you mean. I drank about a billion local microbrews while I was there, too, so that wasn't so much my concern, Olympia is just a regional cheap beer that they don't have in my neck of the woods (much like my Lone Star isn't as cheap or readily available there) so that was my interest with it.
