Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Cass, look for a dojo that promotes self defense. There are many out there and it is a good introduction to martial arts. From my experience self defense dojos pull from various martial arts. Once the student has a better idea of what she likes, then she can find an art that best suits her.
Just pulled an apple crisp out of the oven. I'm trying to wait a bit before breaking into it. Don't need to burn my tongue no matter how tasty it is.
My sleep psych asked if I was gay. What's the polite way to say that "Since there is no sexual interest in either of us, and it's not bothering my sleep, my orientation is irrelevant."
Um, WTF? Good lord, woman. "Yes, I'm SUPER gay, but I am SO closeted I can't even tell YOU! OMG you solved my sleep issues! Like magic! I'm in love. Marry me?"
OH GOD, NOT AN ORGASM! NOT THAT!! ANYTHING BUT THAT!!!

BTW, here is an essay from an outraged scifi novelist about the Penn State situation. I really liked it. And the fiction shout out at the end is really perfect.
I read Scalzi's essay earlier, le nubian. If I were in charge of the world, everyone would have to read "The Ones Who Walk Away from Omelas," but what I thought of at the end of his essay was how few people in the story walk away.
Now I'm going to have trouble sleeping, as I ponder what relationship there could be between martial arts, stoicism, gayness and sleeplessness.
PS: Orgasms? Don't solve chronic insomnia. They just feel good.

BWAH! Okay, you seriously just made me snort.

One would not want to offend your clearly delicate sensibilities.
Unrelated to absolutely everything before, I just read this article on the stereotyping of Asian men as weak or villainous.
As someone outside the Asian community, I think that Asian men in media are portrayed sexily, but unsexed. They are often really attractive, but are third in line (behind white guys and black guys) to get the girl. I'm not going to say there's not a problem with weakness or villainy, because it's certainly not my place to comment, I just thought it was really interesting and it's something new to look out for.
I have wondered if she'll suggest orgasms at any point.
But she will call them "Snoregasms".
