    Yeah, I sent him a picture a few days later, of the scab on my nose, just to give him shit about it. But then, he had to wear all his shirts buttoned all the way up at work for a week to hide the hickey I gave him, so I guess I shouldn't complain, lol.

    A couple weeks ago I posted about me and my poly roommate, and how I'm happy for her but sometimes her multiple partners makes me feel even more lonely and hopeless. How I'd never been kissed or had a real date, etc.

    It could be a sensory thing. My aspy brother is really sensitive to certain stimuli. The buttoned shirt could be about the fabric touching parts of his body in a way that's comforting. Or it could just be the routine of it/needing every button to be buttoned (OCD).

    For everyone wondering why a therapist might recommend looking to date someone that much younger - Aspergers affects social skills very dramatically (depending on where you're at on the spectrum). When my brother was diagnosed in middle school, his social abilities were equivalent to that of a toddler. Not his

    Actually it's more of a "people with mental and developmental disorders have romantic desires too but often have a near impossible time trying to connect with people because of their disabilities and maybe we should use National Autism Day to raise the profile of a specific guy and at the same time raise the issue of

    Asperbers is a developmental disorder. The social skills of people with Aspergers don't develop at a normal rate (or at least that's how my Aspy brother's therapist explained it to us siblings when we were younger). So in theory, dating someone that much younger than him would mean being more evenly matched in terms

    The level of crush I have on Dillon Casey is possibly not healthy. We've exchanged tweets several times. I always have to coach myself not to respond with "can I lick you".

    Now playing

    I got hooked on Of Monsters and Men lately.

    So, I'm single. Always have been. 24 yrs old. Never been kissed. Never had sex. One date, with a guy who turned out to be a Social Darwinist Republican.

    Now playing

    Slightly OT, but if y'all haven't checked out the show Nikita on the CW (the mentioned Maggie Q starring show) you should. There's a new episode tonight. The first two seasons are up on Netflix. I know the CW gives most people pause, because yeeeaaah, they have some awful shows. Nikita is not one of them. It

    In the end, equal to.

    This is why I get so pissed off whenever I see a showrunner defend their lack of LGBTQ characters with "we don't want to be an issues show". As if the only way you can have a gay character is if every episode deals with their gayness in a Very Special way. No, just fucking write your damn character like you would a

    Agreed. May I submit actor Dillon Casey as another specimen who should be appreciated? Exhibits A and B.

    I just watched all 98 episodes of the Lizzie Bennett Diaries in less than 24 hours.

    Oh horse shit. The article is making the point that since rapists can't realistically be locked up for the rest of their lives (in most cases), we as a society need to think ahead to what happens when they get out, or we're just setting up more women to get raped by men who are psychologically worse off than they

    I become ridiculously emotionally attached to fictional people and worlds. Quite often. When that happens, I often seek out spoilers intentionally because getting upset over something bad happening that I wasn't ready for can actually trigger my anxiety disorder and send me into a tailspin. Which always makes me

    I heard 'balloon knot' and immediately thought this was going to be about male sex dolls and an inflatable knot for their fake penises. God, I have way too many furry friends.

    I'm just going to keep leaving this on any story involving people being fucking horrible, awful asshats about this case, or really rape in generally.

    Off topic but I just downed a quareter of a bottle of vodka on an empty stomach because my Day SUCKEd and now I'm all wibley. Does anyone have any suggestyions for food to eat when food doesn't sound good but you want the room to stop spining?

    It's hard to tell if that's supposed to be a DOB, since the middle circle cuts it off. If you read the full thing, though, he says he had to wake his dad to make sure his insurance was squared. It doesn't actually say his dad drove him to the ER. Although, you know, still a bit weird if his birthday really is in
