Buffy the Vampire Slayer was the first show to use the word "Google" as a verb on TV.

Rolling Stone weighs in on 'Pillion'
"[It's] what you might get if Nora Ephron teamed up with Tom of Finland."

A mild-mannered young man enters into a dominant-submissive relationship with the leader of a gay biker gang. Pillion approaches the subject without judgment and with a great deal of sly humor. n.pr/4cbWDlc

starting to feel like there's a direct relationship between the growing obsession with lifestyle hygeine (no drinking, no caffeine, no sex, obsessive working out and looksmaxxing) and the inability to meaningful moral stands on issues of actual import
I think I need How to Get to Heaven from Belfast injected directly into my forehead yes pls
Feeld is such a glitchy app!!!!
There's probably a middle ground between trad wife and girl boss...
I resisted who I was supposed to be so strongly but the hyper independent career woman script hasn't worked out or made me very happy or well.
I'm actually really happy caring for my dad and cooking and cleaning and having a role that isn't about paid work, a bit weirded out by this even tho some of my favourite jobs have been care.
Normalise politely rejecting your dates rather than ghosting them, giving mixed messages, or saying you’re not ready for a relationship when that isn’t the truth.
It’s ok to say “I didn’t feel a spark but I wish you the best”. Your dates will appreciate your honesty and respect for them.
True relational healing doesn't come from reading all the books, listening to all the podcasts, and following all the creators about polyamory. It comes from real-life experiences where your values are tested, your emotions activated, and where there are real stakes to consider.
If you still feel jealous despite having done a ton of research about polyamory, the reason is simple: there's a world of difference between intellectualising and internalising.
Your brain might have understood something, but your body hasn't yet. Let me explain...
There is no need to compete/compare with your partner about who's "getting more" out of the relationship. Instead, focus on your own capacity, what you actually need, and whether you are feeling supported and valued in your relationship and life in general 💛
Men have to unlearn toxic masculinity (e.g. "Your wife being with another means *you* have failed as a man to satisfy her sexually" or "You should be able to control your woman, and if you can't, that is shameful, weak, and unmanly"). Untangling sex from self-worth is essential.
In my experience, men tend to struggle more with polyamory than women because on top of unlearning mononormativity (e.g. "Your partner being with others means they don't love you" or "You can only love one person")...
Polyamory is not cheating, *and* people with trauma around being cheated on tend to find polyamory more difficult.
What matters is that you are still showing up for each other in your connection, that your feelings are considered, and that your needs are met, which is what actually demonstrates the security and commitment of your connection, not what you're doing with others.
If your partner has more partners than you, reframing that from something "bad" and indicative of your worth as a person to just a neutral state of affairs is key.
It’s YOUR job to manage your own capacity, to clearly communicate and check in with partners regularly, to consider how your relationships impact each other, and do all this in a way that respects everyone’s boundaries.
People are really out here confusing “freedom” with “free-for-all”, and “autonomy” with “zero accountability”.
If you don’t want to take on the responsibility, emotional labour, and effort that comes with maintaining multiple intimate connections, polyamory is not for you.
You can’t say you want to be polyamorous and then flake on dates whenever you feel like it, have zero consideration for your partners’ feelings and needs, get defensive when they try to communicate with you, and bail as soon as things start to feel inconvenient or uncomfortable. I said what I said 🤷🏻♀️
I've started a new series about KINK on my Patreon, where every month, I talk about one of my many sexual fantasies: what they are, what makes them hot, where they might come from, and how I turn fantasy into reality with my partners. Here's a preview: www.patreon.com/posts/nsfw-i...
The best thing you can do for your non-monogamous journey is learn not to take things personally - especially when it comes to what your partner is doing with other people.
"In sum: Male sexual desire is good. It’s good because it often leads to sex, which is good. If anything, we need more male sexual desire these days.
Gender and sex-negativity are why anyone thinks it’s bad."
