I have never seen anything like this in NYC. 5th Ave covered from 42nd St well to the 20s. Nobody prepared for this volume. Volunteers are holding the traffic on all the side streets. No police in sight. #handsoff

@lpoolcouncil.bsky.social Thanks for ending free parking after 6pm and ramping up the prices. That’s me done going to FACT cinema or theatre on my own in the evening as I don’t feel safe walking home at night from the bus stop or train station #costofliving #culture #liverpool

Until recently, researchers didn't bother to ask men whether they had ever faked orgasms. It was assumed that they wouldn't have any need to, given men's high rate of orgasm. However, research has since found that 25-34% of men have faked an orgasm before. www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/the-...
How Many Men Have Ever Faked an Orgasm?
Research suggests that a surprisingly large number of men have faked an orgasm before. So what are their main reasons for faking it? And what leads them to stop faking orgasm?

Ever wonder what snow in the swamp would look like? This is 5 miles into the Louisiana swamps in the Atchafalaya basin... it's unreal... having lived down there for the first 28 years of my life, we never saw anything like this.

Smashed records.

Every single time that a famous person tries to blame their sexual harassment/sexual violence on autism, every single autistic person who has experience sexual harassment or sexual violence from within the autistic community screams a little bit louder into the void.

When at the ADHD Summit for Women I learned that Estrogen impacts ADHD. The lack of Estrogen as we enter #perimenopause could be one reason so many of us are getting a #latediagnosis. Also implies #HRT can positively impact #ADHD symptoms. I didn't know this. Why don't we all know this?
