The deal with blog posts is less that I am unmotivated and more that my life exploded and now I’m sick; regular posts start this week. I’M SORRY, LOVELIES, I MAKE YOU A GIFT OF MY MUCUS…?
Are You Ready to Have Sex?
sexpositive:
Ask yourself these questions, and consider all the physical and mental possibilities before having sex.
Is your decision to have sex completely your own (you feel no pressure from others, including your partner)?
Is your decision to have sex based on the right reasons? (It shouldn’t be based on peer pressure, a need to fit in or make your partner happy, or a belief that sex is...

[TRIGGER WARNING: Depression] You'll notice there...
khaleesi:
I’ve thought about doing this for months and there’s still a part of me that’s uncomfortable with it, but I’m gonna be really candid with you guys.
I love my mother. I love my father. They divorced when I was four; my dad was injured on the job when I was less than a year old and cannot work. He gets by (barely) on social security. He made a work attempt when I was 12 and failed. He...

I definitely think the effect is diluted. Most of what people do on Tumblr is scrolling anyway; seemingly-short posts get missed.

I’m thinking about doing away with the “Read More” cuts, even though usually what I write is pretty long. I do them mainly because I don’t want a wall of texts on dashboards, but sometimes I think the effectiveness is then diluted. What do you think?

New Year's Resolution #1: Love Yourself
by Kaye, originally posted at SPARK Movement
Turn off the TV for a second, if you have it on. I want to have a little bit of a conversation with you, and the last thing I want is for it to be interrupted by yet another weight loss commercial gimmick.
They crop up more and more often this time of year, don’t they? I don’t watch a lot of TV, mostly because I simply don’t have the time and I don’t...
