  • I have a good friend whose wife drinks borax water every day. They spent just about everything they had on in vitro and lost the baby. I love them to death, and I’d never, ever suggest to them that something they did is why they lost the baby, but sometimes I genuinely wonder if it’s because she drinks borax. To clarify, I did tell them not to drink borax when they started, I’m just saying I wouldn’t specifically point out losing the baby with the borax connection.

    I get the inclination to not trust things at face value, to do your own research, et cetera. Especially in the US, we’re bombarded with new meds we’re supposed to “ask our doctor about,” but there’s a pretty thick, fucking mile wide line between researching the meds you take and listening to Becky on tiktok and deciding to drink a literal poison that even the victorians knew probably wasn’t the best for you by the end of their run.







  • My mom was an animal groomer when I was a kid. We had fabric shears, fabric scissors, shears for hair, and paper scissors, kitchen scissors, craft scissors, scrapbooking scissors… So many scissors. I never really understood until I started sewing in my 20s. I knew not to use the wrong scissors on pain of death, but I never really understood why.

    Now? I will cut a bitch (with the appropriate pair of scissors for bitch-cutting) if they so much as look at my fabric scissors while within 5 feet of a sheet of paper.


  • So, NSFW story time…

    !I used to hook up with a dude who precummed (precame?) a lot. He also had really bad tasting jizz. I am also that person that totally loses interest in sex the moment I cum. For at least 10-15 minutes after I get off I have no interest in sex. So whenever I would to over and he would blow me, I would have some excuse why I couldn’t recip. To include discreetly setting fake calls on my phone to ring right after I came. I feel really bad now for using him the way I did. I’d have let him top if he’d wanted to, but he never wanted to, and he never wanted to let me blow him first (which I wouldn’t have wanted to do, but would have powered through probably). I was young, and didn’t really have the nerve to discuss taste and stuff with him. I’m not that douchebag now, but I still feel guilty about it. !<
