Cross post for TLL & Frank in support of 8AGAINST8
I live in Oregon. It’s right above California. Generally Oregonians hate Californians. Why? Well, the feeling here is that these rich-ass wacka doo California natives come here & buy up all the affordable properties and pollute our air with their fruity extra fluffy foam latte attitudes. [...]

A co-worker asked me this today. Which is harder, more challenging, more, ya know, difficult? This person is one of those well meaning types that I love & loathe at the same time.

Do you remember the Ching chong incident? If not let this refresh your memory. After she made her ching chong mockery she remained wholly indignant on the matter until she watched a video by Beau Sia. Only then did she get it but still needed to plead victim & compare with her own issues around [...]

Great topic. Safe sex that is. I remember when I came out 16 years ago HIV/AIDS was still a cause celeb and safe sex as a topic was as common among us queers as anything else we’d chat about. I remember many years ago watching a supposed lesbian sex sex porno. Though it was not [...]
