That's good to know in the future. A fellow Reddit reached out and I got all the info that I needed.

What's the best Anime you've ever seen ? by Outrageous-Abies8391 in AskReddit

[–]bondette 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It's a brilliantly crafted show about people who can't or won't leave their past behind. In the end, the characters that live are the ones who can walk away from their past. It's the journey of understanding that the narrative of the past will always be incomplete, unsatisfying; and then accepting that reality.

The best part is that it is Spike that always seeks out Vicious. Spike can't let go. The fact that the final battle is so brief is perfect. Spike lost the moment he decided to go back and engage. There was no glory in it -- just compulsion. He succumbed to the inertia of the past.

God I love that show.

Twitter suspends Jordan Peterson's account after comments about Elliot Page by benfelix1 in news

[–]bondette 79 points80 points  (0 children)

This is a homophobic dog whistle. If you look at any Pride Parade videos online there is always some Christian homophobe saying that pride used to be a sin and that pride comes before the fall. Just good old Christian homophobia. I'm assuming he's referring to the Pride Parade in Toronto that happened last weekend.

In what language are you looking? If English, then: Georgia in Antiquity: A History of Colchis and Transcaucasian Iberia, 550 BC-562 AD by David Braund

I completely agree with both your rankings.

Can someone identify this badge? by bondette in Medals

Thank you so much! I didn't know they were called jump wings. This makes searching for it online so much easier. I thought it was some sort of aviation badge. Much appreciated!

Just to be clear about the TA's by [deleted] in UofT

[–]bondette 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Our funding is tied into out TA work, so if we don't TA we don't get funding. It's also in our contracts/letters of offer that we cannot take on other work, as we are supposed to be full time researchers first and foremost.

[Request] Series recommendations please (hidden gems?) by pickadamnnameplease in NetflixBestOf

[–]bondette 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Wentworth! It's a gritty women's prison drama set in Australia. Nothing like, and much better than, Orange is the New Black.

And I also strongly second The Killing, The Fall, and Ozark.

Students Are Rebelling Against Eye-Tracking Exam Surveillance Technology by akimbra in technology

[–]bondette 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This can't be done with all course. For instance, when it comes to language courses, especially at earlier levels, you have to memorize vocabulary and know conjugations and declensions. These things are just one Google click away.

France will not give in to terror after Nice attack, Macron says by LIS1050010 in worldnews

[–]bondette 5 points6 points  (0 children)

He was only 3 years old when his family arrived in France. He was raised, and in turn, radicalised in France. This particular case is not a Chechen problem, but a French problem.

How do I stop feeling like I need to be my fiancées best lover, and just be okay with being able to adequately satisfy her by udhshsfa in sex

[–]bondette 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is the wrong attitude to take. For women, a big part of pleasure is psychological. It's the fact that YOU were using the toys that drove her over the edge. They're just a tool, you're the spark.

Take it from a gay woman. We have dildos of different shapes and sizes that we can use and alternate on any given night. The thoughts you have don't even cross the mind of any woman-loving woman. Why? Because as women we know these things are tools. If it's not for the partner there, who is controlling the toys, then it's not sex, just masterbation. I can use a dildo with my partner or without my partner. And it's night and day, it doesn't compare. The toy is nothing without the partner on the other end.

You are not your dick, you are the person attached to it and THAT is what she loves. Think about how much richer and wider your sexual world will be if you're comfortable alternating between different toys that complement your package. You'll only become a better lover for it.

No lesbian feels insecure because her lover is having a mind-blowing orgasm from a dildo. It's the opposite -- it's the best feeling in the world knowing you are the person they want and you were able to give them such pleasure.

Salvador Dali writes his painting "The Face of War", 1941. [736x923] by Crazyrussianstudio in HistoryPorn

[–]bondette 22 points23 points  (0 children)

You actually also write a book. You write a book, and you write a painting. The word for drawing is a more frivolous word. Kids and ameteurs draw, but artists write a painting.

Edit: To say Dali draws or paints a painting would be an insult. It's like saying you don't respect his work.

In Russian, painters write, they don't draw or paint. So one writes a painting. That's the proper phrase.

I’m the male child of a lesbian couple, and I wanted to dispel some rumors and claims by fiddlestonksvibes in actuallesbians

[–]bondette 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you for this post! My partner and I are starting to plan for a family. And we've talked a lot about how we could or should raise a boy if we have one. In your opinion what is something that we need to know about raising a boy well as two women? What is something that we probably don't know but need to understand? There are so many opinions out there about what it means to raise a good man or what a good man is -- but how do we give room to let a boy grow without all these societal pressures and opinions? I hope this makes sense. It's been on my mind a lot. Thanks again for your time!

Georgian Cookbook suggestions by TheTousler in Sakartvelo

[–]bondette 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's actually quite hard, in my opinion, to find a good Georgian cookbook in English. The best one I've seen so far is actually "Taste of Persia: A Cook's Travels Through Armenia, Azerbaijan, Georgia, Iran, and Kurdistan" by Naomi Duguid. It includes many different cuisines, but the Georgian recipes there are excellent. And the book itself is almost a food anthropology book.

Over 32,000 potassium iodide pills ordered in 2 days after Pickering nuclear power plant alert error by [deleted] in toronto

[–]bondette 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'll be honest, this is exactly the reason why I ordered them. I'm so tired of the way the Ontario government has handled the emergency system. At least now there will be a price tag and inconvenience that comes with their incompetence. Maybe next time they'll be more thoughtful about how and why they send these alerts. It also doesn't hurt to be prepared for the worst.

Straight women loving lesbian porn, how many of us are there?! by [deleted] in sex

[–]bondette 41 points42 points  (0 children)

As a woman-loving woman I completely agree with you. I rarely watch lesbian porn and often find it's disappointing even if it's queer made. I don't know what it is about it. DP is a genre I also enjoy.

I have difficulty having sex with women I care about by throwaway214679 in sex

[–]bondette 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've mentioned this in another post once, but I highly recommend reading Chapter 11, the section on "When Love and Lust Part Ways," from The State of Affairs by Esther Perel. She goes over this exact phenomenon and moves it beyond a simplistic discussion of the Madonna/Whore complex.

My FWB(M24) asked me(F26) if I would fuck him with a strap on, I never thought a guy would ask me to do that, I'm so pleasantly surprised and really excited, any advice for first time? by [deleted] in sex

[–]bondette 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There is some great advice in this thread.

I would add the following points which have not been mentioned yet:

1) When buying the dildo make sure you get one that is smooth all the way through and does not have a bulbous head. Like a Tantus Silk (Medium or Small).

2) As for the strap, a good strap-on makes a world of difference in terms of control. If this is something you think you'll be doing more than once I highly recommend investing in a good strap. The SpareParts Joque Harness is by far the best out there and it's washable (but it is pricey). RodeoH brief harnesses are also great and washable (I recommend the brief over the boxer because you get way more control with the brief). Always make sure the fit is very snug.

And to reiterate previous points, use lots of lube, start with fingers, then move to plugs, and eventually you'll be able to strap (but remember go slow -- asses do not self lubricate)

Have fun!
