Hey there, and welcome to your Savage Lovecast review for the week of October 10. I don’t talk about sports often here, but I wanted to point out that the US men’s national soccer team failed to qualify for the World Cup for the first time since 1986. This failure became official after a 2-1 loss to Trinidad and…

Hey there, and welcome to your Savage Lovecast review for the week of October 3. Congress is flauting Roe v. Wade by introducing a 20-week abortion ban. Never mind that this is an awful bill that will not reduce abortion rates but will endanger women’s health, the legal bills from the inevitable challenge to this bill…

Hey there, and welcome to your Savage Lovecast review for the week of September 26. I hope everyone’s week is going better than Luther Strange’s, who, for all his faults, is not as outwardly hostile to LGBT, women, and non-Christians generally as Alabama’s next presumed senator, Roy Moore.

Hey there, and welcome to your Savage Lovecast review for the week of September 12. Now that we know Ted Cruz’s pr0n predilection, I need some mind bleach to erase the image of Cruz jacking off. So, to the extent you’re comfortable with sharing, I want to know what’s in your erotic imagination right now. What’s…

Yeah, nobody would have commented until the morning even under the old regime if it posted at 4 instead of midnight central.

Hey there, and welcome to your Savage Lovecast review for the week of September 5. I am writing this from a sports bar because my new place has not connected me to the internet yet. I am squeezed in between a private party and a live band, so if I miss something important, I am slightly less at fault than I usually…

Six months sounds to me like a good rule of thumb for this. If she’s still in a place where hearing about her ex’s new girlfriend causes her to fall apart, she’s making herself vulnerable by not cutting off contact for a while.

As a former law student myself, law students are not highly regarded for their ability to adult.

Hey there, and welcome to your Savage Lovecast review for the week of August 29. I wanted to start with a personal note. After fighting really hard for a long time, I am separating from Ms. Launcher. (This is the only way I’m like Chris Pratt.) Thanks to everyone here for your support since I first mentioned it. If…

I’m here, but I’m wondering where the rest of the comments went.

She wanted to be independent on her terms, and her terms included me being there only when she wanted me. I needed to step away from that, and I finally have.

it's part of a pattern of manipulation that I've been trying to see my way through.

Missionary. Rely on your good arm to keep yourself up and give the good side hell.

I'm in the process of divorcing my wife. I paid all the bills during the relationship, and because of that and various other reasons I always felt like I contributed more to the relationship than I got back. Now she's faced with the prospect of paying bills herself once I move out. She's accusing me of not caring…

Are there unwritten gay rules?

cool, I was following without even realizing. I will have to pop up more often. MLA hasn't kicked me out yet, and I dropped a reference in this week's recap to stay on her good side.

I'm a n00b and don't know what Avocado is - got a link or an explainer?

english is a weird language

That's plausible. If that's the case, she does him no favors by continuing to see him. He needs to learn that trying to translate his "edgy" side into hate will cost him relationships.
