[Serious] Best Pee Strat
Sorry if this is the wrong place to post this, but I need some advice. Tomorrow at 16:00 I need to pee into a cup at the doctor’s office for a drug test and I am a very shy pee-er.

I travel a lot, and talk to a lot of different people. I’ve noticed that while people certainly do have differing opinions, it’s not as extreme as what I see online.

While I was documenting myself to create a romantic work between two women, I made a little detour and read a Manga (Love Hurts, by Kiriko Nananan) that made me wonder if the idea I initially had for my story is too idealistic to the point of bordering on childish. It’s just that the manga portrays interpersonal relationships...

What Do You Use Your Personal Website For?
I’m stuck at a crossroads between what to do with my own. Not sure if I want to make it more of a documentation/wiki style site for everything I’m interested in or if I want to treat it more like a blog.
