  • I don’t know how it was in your school, but I feel you on the A.R program. My school had maybe 20 books qualifed for A.R in the library.

    It was an absolute slog of the same uninteresting books year after year, and every time they wanted to ask how to make it better, they shrugged off “Get more varied options”. We could see the fucking list in the program we went to take the tests in. There were fucking hundreds.

    Not everything can be framed in a way to make it easier on everyone, but it’s so much easier to teach people when you can frame it in a way they’ll enjoy.





  • She told you right, though. Have had a lot of medical personnel in my family, have heard the stories. It’s a biological thing that happens for reasons even the person with a boner can’t always explain. So long as you’re not being a problem with it, it’s just a part of the job, especially if they’re doing anything that involves interacting with sensitive areas.

    Especially sports-related. They have to deal with awkward teens getting physicals.






  • It’s vague, but I have some memory of when a dog attacked me when I was 4. It’s less the complete event, more flashes of parts. The initial bite, being in the back of the car with a towel wrapped around my head with my mom crying. Bits and pieces of my time in the hospital after(being woken up by some piece of equipment letting out an awful noise, getting served Cheerios in a styrofoam cup) come through, too.
