Interesting and gross, but not unexpected, I guess. Do not use antimicrobial wipes though, please. Unless you cycle properly between disinfectants this is a good way to produce resistant bacteria.

Crab is significantly better, despite being more work.

I don’t truly understand how that is a straw-man argument, the willing participant portion is what’s tripping me up. I’m not trying to be incendiary here, despite my poor choice in wording there.

Dude, don’t worry, its OK. It gave me a lot more compassion for people who’ve faced shit like I did, in different flavors, and I wouldn’t be sharing here if it was still too much.

I actively pursued the gentleman who raped me, too. And bragged about it afterward. We had ‘consensual’ sex later, too. It’s a broken way to have ‘power’ over yourself and your situation, or at least in my situation it was.

Thank you, love. I wouldn’t be sharing it so cavalierly here if it still had a huge weight on me, but thank you for the well wishes, they are always welcome <3

I bragged about bagging the hot dude at the bar, too.

I bragged about dating my rapist.

CeraVe was my first foray into sciencey skin care, not just prestige brand skincare, so I have a soft spot for the brand lo.

That’s what I’m thinking I might need to switch to if I went with the cosrx, so you’ve kind of confirmed my suspicion. And thank you for the recs, I love hearing other people’s routines/favs

thanks for the mini reviews and rec! I totally took a quite peek for the Acura on Canadian amazon and it was $272 lol. So I might need a different source. the cosrx is not expensive at all which makes it tempting.  

What do you use regularly? I follow with a micellular water so I’m hoping for something kind of creamy/milky/balmy

Also, because I was at work and my prev response was more to help get you out of the greys and sucked - You feel how you feel. And it’s justified. It’s ok to be pissed. Or conflicted. Or both. Or neither. This guy sounds like a complete shitheel in how he behaved, it wasn’t ok. And berating you for not having sex with…

Have you tried CeraVe’s hydrating cleanser? I’m dying to know how they compare.

I use it as a ‘mask’ and sometimes force my boyfriend to use it as one also. Mostly because its ‘gritty’ and ‘tingles’ which i like to pretend is manly and therefore a good enough reason to use vit-C (this line of non-reasoning has only worked semi well).

i’m really sorry you experienced that.

grey area and probably depends on your jurisdiction. a case for indecent exposure or harassment could be made if it was unasked for, but ymmv.

no, its cool. the police like to keep busy. Hotel room identified and finding a dude with his dick out has to be an easy apprehend.

nope. and there’s a kibosh on flirting with underagers AND administrative staff that report to you. whatever will the next generation do to meet people?

I thought that the writer was trying to pull in how the industry as a whole abuses actors. From the studios who abused his body, to the producers that abused his image for profit (Ratner), to the execs who thought his body was theirs for the taking.
