I appreciate being brought in! Just interviewed a lovely person with a sneezing kink. Haven't talked with a burb kinkster — but makes sense. Anything that makes a person lose control of their body, even momentarily, is going to become a kink for some. We are a kink-seeking species.

As a fellow nipple shadow caster, wondering why @dansavage.bsky.social told us on The Lovecast which episode to watch the alleged dissapointing pegging scene but not the timestamp(s?) of said nipple shadows being cast so that I don’t have to actually watch the Hunter Wives. 👀🧐🤭

First, there's a pegging scene that everyone tells me I have to see. And second, men with nipples that cast shadows are underrepresented in film and television and I think representation is important and so I will keep watching.

The show is terrible but I’m going to keep watching it for two reasons.
Dan Savage (@dansavage.bsky.social) reply parent
This is why it's important to have someone in the writers' room who was actually closeted at some point in their lives. I didn't get caught sucking dick when I was closeted because I was very careful not to suck dick where I might get caught.

I mean, if I didn't want anyone to know I was eating pussy I wouldn't eat pussy in front of my huge picture window where I could be seen eating pussy by anyone who happened to drive by or by anyone who happened to look out the picture window of their own McMansion on cul-de-sac where I live.

Exactly the wrong thing to do — as we've seen in CA, housing has to be crammed down the throats of "local leaders." They have too much power, not too little.

We've been running this "hey, let's make it nearly impossible to build new housing" experiment for decades and the results are in: Barring housing construction is to the left what tax cuts are to the right: a policy that hasn't worked and will never work but they keep pushing regardless.

If not building new housing prevented gentrification and kept housing prices down... SF would be least gentrified city with the lowest average rents in the country.
