I get that. It's not easy being told that you need to embrace the thing about yourself that people use as cudgel, but you're not mentally ill. Neurodivergence isn't a disorder, it's an alternate way of thinking - you still feel sadness, anger, regret ad joy; you still have the ability to be empathetic. Don't keep saying you're ill when you're not.

NGL, that kinda hurts.

Then you understand that women are in a no win situation. If they're not respected for their actual talents, than they're not going to be treated with respect for using the one thing they're allowed to use, their sexuality.

In a patriarchal society, neurotypical women aren't taken seriously for their intellectual talents either.

Your baking skills are unmatched, disco.

I thought you were leaving the political right, ghosty.

Don't apologize, ghosty. I would consider it an honor to be called crazy by you.

Can't have a pool bar without jacuzzi people though - they bring the muffin top cuties for the watershow.

Her toes sure ain’t.

Yes, ghosty. I know you’re straight.

Right up until that one douche spills his second Long Island iced tea into the jacuzzi.

Israel punted on the intelligence, and there’s no chance now of regaining the advantage.

Aside from the fact dudes don’t make good doms, I agree.

I don’t think starting your own country is a viable solution. Ghosty, what do you need to feel like your contributions are appreciated?

No h8 bro.

That is true. I don’t know anything about the dude. He could be a comedian mimicking hard right talking points for satire, but you’re not wrong in realizing that there are people who say such things seriously. How do you plan to combat it, Ghosty?

I think you have a really wrong idea about what BDSM actually is. If you’re thinking of a dominatrix, you’re probably thinking of the prime time police procedural version who ties up stock brokers, gangsters, and other psychopaths who lack an internal dialog. They aren’t dominating these broken men, they’re being the missing conscience and it’s not the norm for either doms or subs. A dominatrix isn’t there to control her subs, either sexually / physically or psychologically. Quite the opposite: she’s there to break control, to force the sub to release his self imposed constraints by refusing to acknowledge them. I’m not saying you should visit a BDSM dungeon, but you could certainly benefit from being released from your various psycho-sexual tics. Of course you don’t want to give up that control, even as it’s throttling your chances at meaningful relationships romantic or platonic.

I'm sure she's her usual self.

You aren't?

Do you still chat with her?

Good times, man.

Pretty sure we've had the conversation about "Photoshop" and videos here on the UEMB before...

I read that as "kicked out of Red Lobster for the most romantic date imaginable" before coming to the inevitable realization that Fuggs probably got shaky FaceTime videos from military hottie of him fucking some other chick with a cheeky "Wish you were here..." text.

Me neither.

Nice
