Uuuugh. Guys? I am way behind on answering comments and emails. Like, this is ridiculous. Please be patient with me, and if you really need something, go ahead and poke me. I truly won't mind. I'm just . . . not keeping up with shit at the moment. My apologies.

For the moment, have things that have been amusing me.

Literally the most entertaining terrible porn I have ever read. This person's friend found a three-ring binder under a sink in the basement of her new house, and the contents are unbelievable.
