@Stella_Blue: Differnet people process shit in different ways, I can't find it inmyself to judge someone who just lost her fiancee. Can you? Really?

@The Real Janelle: Letter of the law, yo. It means that the laws need to be amended, because they are overbroad. Think of it more as a criticism of the way laws are written, rather than a statement of sexualization of children.

@GGobsessed: How on earth do you not know any guys who aren't jerks? I know far, far, far more guys who aren't jerks than guys who are.

@Flackette Goes Retro: well, when I'm not wearing my earings, no one can tell my ears are pierced. Plus, I can change the earings to whatever the hell I wants. And, while I was about six when my ears were pierced (after my parents listened to me whine about wanting it for months) I actually couldn't FEEL the…

So, I made chicken broth today, from the carcass of yesterday's roast chicken dinner. Gotta say, the feeling of accidentally squeezing too hard on a piece of vertebrae or other thin bone and having it just... crush between your fingers... is fucking creepy.

@InABook: Also, we have a safety word, and we've experimented with light bondage— we've decided rope bondage is a little too complex for heat of the moment, but specific, pre-made collars or restraints would be awesome. and thanks for the advice of starting out with something more... solid, before moving into leather…

@ameliabearhart: [lovelettersinhell.blogspot.com] of course i['ll follow yours!

@pileofmonkeys: I lived there for one summer, and did a lot of stupid shit, and didn't get robbed. Don't go into midcity at night, don't be oblivious in tourist areas, and generally pay attention to your surroundings, and you SHOULD be fine. Check out the music on Frenchman, though!

@Scoldy Lox: Teh terrorists wants to killz americun babbies, so don't you be killin them urself?

@ZombieEmpress: Boston is.... fun? but remember that a lot of places don't allow pets. So def check on that.

@sundanced: Meeeee Tooooooooo. I LOVE the slightly repressed twee schoolteacher look.

@Understater: I have only done it once, and I wasn't the stranger, but it was a TON of fun. If you do it and are not the stranger, I think it's important to have the stranger leave before sleepy time, so that the pair with the bond get time together to reconnect. Other than that... practise safe sex, and lay out…

So, I'm tipsy, and wouldn't normally go here on a public forum, but.... any recommendations for collars/floggers? Boy and I have been talking, and I really want to be all tied up/bound, and hurt. So, really, any recommendations are welcome!

@SUNNY1: If that is true, um, know any good Kushiel's Legacy fanfic?

@strangelittlegirl: Drunk driving is inherently different than drinking in public though. The comparison just doesn't work. And i DO get upset about those who drink and drive. But that isn't what this post is about.

@scottthesot: And therefore, we should also ban all medicines or art made by misogynists, or racists, or polluters!

@emckenna: Smoke gets in the way of my enjoyment of alcohol. If I'm spending $10 on a cocktail or beer, I want to be able to smell it, sip it, and examine the flavor complexity. I get that a lot of people drink shitty things, but as far as my bar going is concerned, not having a full ability to taste would make it…

@dequeued: Actually, it does make the clothes smell— you've probably just deadened your own sense of smell enough that you can't tell.

@raincoaster: Keeping the good booze in the smoking room wouldn't make sense, would it? Being around smoke diminishes your ability to taste— one HUGE reason it's terrible to have smoking in restaurants and bars.

@yamish: I got a giant polar bear from a boyfriend for Christmas at 18-19. Loved it. Lots of other girls i knew got stuffed animals as presents the first couple years of college and loved them. So yeah, probably age appropriate, even if not appropriate for everyone of that age..
