Frottage is the act of thigh-fucking, wherein the man places his penis between his partner’s thighs and thrusts to orgasm. Sometimes practiced by gay men, was actually a common form of sex between prostitutes and their clients in the 19th century and earlier because you could avoid disease and pregnancy.

I want to live in a cottage named Frogmore. I would sit on the toadstools and talk to the bunnies every morning while I drink a cup of honey and run my bare feet through the wildflowers.

Omg my sweet little Italian greyhound was the best sleeping partner ever. She slept all night under the covers, head on the pillow in the crook of my arm. I still haven’t slept well since she’s been gone. Sometimes my kitten will sleep on my pillow and purr next to my head- that is the next best thing to a cuddly dog. 

TRUTH, right here.

There’s also the fact that the students from my city got subsidized or free lunches so we stood in a DIFFERENT line from the other kids to get our food. They had booths and Round Table pizza, we had 2 long tables and styrofoam lunch trays with pizza that was pretty gross, honestly.

What (even “liberal”) white people will do to keep children of color out of “their schools”...I mean, they’re very methodical. I went to school in a very wealth, white suburb because they HAD to accept some students from the neighboring poor, majority-POC city (where I lived). I didn’t realize it at the time, but the w…

The Starbucks Christmas cups are still not sufficiently Christmas-y.

This isn’t the first time. There’s been some real WTF moments in here lately.

I know I enjoy how “supportive” and “smart” all the articles here about mental health issues are.

Could do without the snark re: Amanda Bynes. If you read the whole article, she talks about her more general issues with body dysphoria. I have nothing but sympathy and compassion for a woman who grewup on screen while women’s weights and appearances are being constantly picked over and scrutinised. It sounds…

Also Lauren, using the one image that Amanda Bynes had issues with that sent her into a body dysphoric shame spiral seems a little unnecessarily cruel, no?  

Ms. Holloway seems like an interesting and well-spoken person but it’s silly to present her as a “typical sex worker.”

I should add, I don’t think anyone should be trying to retrieve his body.  His family needs to live with the fact that their son died being incredibly stupid, and that putting others in danger (including the very residents of the island) to retrieve the body is selfish.

Fuck this guy and fuck anyone that wants to retrieve his body. I’ve been fortunate to work with a variety of indigenous communities (in strictly non-religious contexts, and sometimes in direct opposition to the local religious nutjobs) and don’t feel a shred of sympathy for anyone that supported this selfish,…

Here is a thing I wrote yesterday about this very article:

Yes, Jez! Please, cover people like Jameela Jamil more, and the shitty Insta shills less. Please!

But people won’t listen to women who are NOT conventionally beautiful who say this stuff (because trust me they are) — they don’t have her platform. She has this platform because she’s talented and smart but also beautiful and thank goddess she’s using it to make this kind of positive noise. I have no problem with her…

It’s even worse when women who’ve just had a baby are selling those weigh loss scams. You shouldn’t starve yourself after giving birth, ESPECIALLY not if you’re nursing. Starvation diets are not good for milk production. But even if you don’t nurse, the body needs to heal. It’s not just the vagina, your skeleton,…

I thought maybe she is just trying to get out from under her sister’s shadow....
