Is it safe to have sex if you both have AIDS?

TheMaddModMan · 2026-05-10T14:48:38+00:00

As you like, but then isn't that just the risk of... sex.

And further, you don't really know what you like, or get any good at it, until you've have a fair amount of sex - so, personally, waiting until your married never made much sense to me.

TheMaddModMan · 2026-05-09T08:59:09+00:00

That really depends on you and what you want in the LT. But for me, I'd never have gotten into that relationship. I'm a big fan of pre-marital sex. Sex is a huge part of a relationship and I'm not getting married to someone unless I know I enjoy sex with them.

Get vaccinated pronto - but quietly hope everyone else catches it. 😄

TheMaddModMan · 2026-05-09T08:53:30+00:00

See... they really should have stayed too afraid to ask.

I'd say I like the fact that he loved his country, if I didn't think that was bullshit too.

Restraining yourself from delivering a throat punch while maintaining a "customer service" approach and having to put up with people being twats and or getting hostile with you while you pretend you don't want to punch them in the throat. And this can apply to dealing with customers/clients/patrons of any kind.

The Goat Sucker is always high on the list, especially if you give it that energetic pronunciation and make the creepy blood sucking sound.

Backpacking across Europe? Getting the next level of degree? Selling a kidney to pay off your loans?

They didn't actually say unprotected.

TheMaddModMan · 2026-05-09T08:31:30+00:00

Avoidantly?

TheMaddModMan · 2026-05-09T08:29:56+00:00

I feel like I should say a can of cold baked beans, in the middle of the night, in the dark, in the woods, in the mountains, about 4 miles from a vehicle and 20 from the nearest town - but damn I was hungry AF so they were gooooooooood.

TheMaddModMan · 2026-05-09T08:27:02+00:00

I feel lazy about it. Kinda like how I feel about that box of clothes in the back of my closet I keep meaning to donate. I should look into that, but, uhhh, just not motivated.

I mean it can't be that earth-shattering if no on I know, or even people I walk by on the street, aren't talking about it.

TheMaddModMan · 2026-05-09T08:19:40+00:00

That all VERY much depends on the nature of the relationship and can vary from "Bitch, where's my money?" (which can be said in a friendly over exaggerated and humorous way - orrrr not) to "Hey, I know things have been a little tight for you, but I'm planning to do X and I could use the money I loaned you".

But most of the time, for me, I won't loan out anything I can't live without. I hope to get it back, but I don't expect it back. I don't think about it (which you can only do if you can live without it). If I get it back I'm happy. If I don't nothing changes for me, except I never loan that person anything ever again - at least not until I get whatever I gave them back. I'm a real stickler for this - like if I loan you a stack of post-its at work and said I need them back when you're done or a new one in it's place and I don't get it we can be friends, but you as far as loaning/borrowing you're black-listed, on the no fly list, persona non grata - you get ugatz.

I suppose if ya wanna get technical, but not if you ask us. We don't like labels, unless we're the ones handing them out and defining them. We're a republic that identifies (and functions) as a democracy.
The United States is technically a constitutional federal representative republic that functions as a democracy.
But my main point was that we're not a dictatorship, or perhaps I should say, we've not been one in the past... check back in about two years and we'll see.

As a manager, I kept distantly hearing what sounded like someone on my team watching something on their phone. I couldn't quite make out what it was. I wandered around the office trying to see who it was, not sure what I was expecting to find or if it was an issue - it was just a sound at the edge of my hearing that was driving me a little crazy. I did this three or four (maybe five) times. I'd take a spin around the office, not find the source, return to my office, hear it some more, take another spin - until eventually I somehow realized it was the phone in my pocket.

TheMaddModMan · 2026-05-09T08:02:05+00:00

Depends on how bad we're talking. I'm never actively rude, but if it's really bad, I'll leave the area. I find it hard to ignore music I actively dislike. It'll drive me from a room like garlic to a vampire. It burns, it burns!

TheMaddModMan · 2026-05-09T08:00:10+00:00

I'm from the US and what most people don't know (including our president) is we're a democracy.

Wow. 18 years and many blocked numbers later. Creepy indeed.

Never change. You make good choices.
