All the Doctor Who yesterday got me thinking

I think he may have influenced what I like in a guy:

Wise like 1
Playfully musical like 2
Authoritative like 3
Quirky like 4
Sensitive like 5
Loves animals like 6
Has a dark side like 7
Have a carpe diem attitude, like 8
Willing to do anything for what he cares about, like the War Doctor
Can dress down and still look classy, like 9
Can pull off a suit, while keeping it playful (eg sand shoes) like 10
Can tie a bow tie, like 11

Upon this realization I got very excited about meeting 12, to see what gets added to my list

Been gone, will be back

I had planned on getting some posts scheduled for yesterday while I was off gaming and drinking and such, clearly I failed in that plan. I considered doing some scheduling to last until I get back from church tomorrow, but frak it I am tired.

I will be back, and post an excessive geek, Christian, Equality, and Free-Thinking images, quotes, etc, at some point in the afternoon. In the future I will consider doing the scheduling before the 8 hour board gaming day.

For now

Good Night all

For so many reasons, but on this day of family sucks, were is more booze I love his take on Thanksgiving

A bit about me

I love Sexplanations.  Dr Doe has gotten me to think about my sexuality from multiple points of view.

I will now have a quick discussion on my attractions.  I call myself pansexual, because I find so very many different sexualities attractive, but that really does not describe me well, like at all.  I have joked that I am Pansexual and Asexual, and while that is closer to were I am it just confuses.  I am attracted to different things it different ways, and with different leanings.

Intellectually
Intellectually I am Pansexual.  A persons biology and social gender definitions do not play a role in whether I am intellectually attracted to them.  Boobs and vag have nothing to do with the brain, neither does circumcision or intact.

Emotionally
Emotionally I lean straight.  I am mostly attracted to metrosexual men, and, well, gay men.  I know, I know, gay men will never find my sexually attractive, but I do not care, I am not wanting to fuck them, I just emotionally find them a really great fit for me.

I do not find women emotionally attractive, dyke, butch, femme, none of these are commonly good fits for me.  That is not to say that there is not some woman who is a perfect fit for me emotionally, I am sure there is, likely a good number of them.  I have only met one, and so I say lean straight, at least in this one respect.

Physically
I am totally Pansexual here, well, Captain Jack type of Pan.  I find all different things physically attractive.  Boobs are awesome, I love boobs.  Penises look, well, icky, as do vaginae.  Amusingly enough I think foreskin and large labias are hot, I cannot explain it, I just do.

Sexually
And now it is time for the Asexual part.  It is only a part of attraction, but it is the part most people connect with, sex.  I am not against sex, I just am not interested in it, at all.  If I were dealing with someone that wanted to have sex with me, and I felt I was getting something I wanted from the deal, I would not say no, but as I have not found someone who does not want the sexual to be in the forefront of a relationship, and am not interested in a friend with benefits relationship ...

That is not to say I do not find pleasure in orgasms, I do, I just do not feel the slight bit interested in forming a relationship around it, or, well, having physical intimacy with anyone.  The only way I do things with others involves mutual masturbation.

I find anything sexual with someone else to be about bringing enjoyment to the other person, and not sex.  I am, at this point, rather confused that so many people need sex to get enjoyment, and that just causes issues for even starting a relationship ...

Conclusion
I am me.  Words are good for both clarification, and confusion.

I love Sexplanations, and am so glad that watching has gotten me to feel less weird about my weirdness.  Sexplanations on Subbable, if I had any actual money I would totally give money, doing my part to help myself, and others, always a good thing.

The deep emotional bond between people, especially those separated by distance or death

I went to see a friends band last week.  All the groups playing were great, but every single band had some point during their set that multiple people were messing with their phone, not taking pictures/videos, but posting on FB, or messaging people.  I wanted to punch people.  If you want to be online stay home, if you want to be out with people, put down the damned phone.

I have been away from my computer

Apparently that caused a panic for some of you.  Got 15 emails from people I have never met, worried about me.  It was nice to see people cared.

Been fine, just not online.

Time for another personal post

I have never hidden my sexuality, and other ... entertainment from anyone except my parents, so me posting more now should really not be a surprise.

I have started getting more social recently, sometimes in sexually open places, but still have not had sex again.  I did however cuddle, well fail at cuddling, at a sex club.

Smoking cigarettes is bad, smoking pot, not so much.  Being a complete pot head is bad.  I went from the extreme of pot head to not touching it at all.  Now I am back, but the high CBD type for pain, and a pinch of THC when being sociable.

I had stopped masturbating as much, feeling I had gotten to the point where I needed it multiple times a day. Some good things had happened, ok, not really, I no longer feel the need to masturbate, but otherwise I had not noticed anything.  Then last night happened.  I entertained myself, I slept amazingly well, my pains have lessened.

My first try of alcohol was a sip of something my mom was drinking.  My first buzz was when my and my dads Hot chocolates got confused.  My enjoyment for booze has never gone away, even when I did stupid things like drinking around people that are not are safe, or this past New Years Eve when I drank heavily on an empty stomach.  I did however learn some important rules for myself and alcohol intake.

I had become obsessed with quite a few things.  None of them were bad, in moderation, but I was doing them more than is healthy.  Addiction runs in my family, I have kept myself from any real addiction (other than cigarettes) because of the fear of being an addict, more recently seeing my sister (full blown pill addict), and my niece (who has been clean for a little more than a year).

Life is a balancing act
Sometimes I forget that
Sometimes I just fail at it

What do you have to be scared of?

It is easy to take off your clothes and have sex;

People do it all the time,

But opening up your soul to someone,

Letting them into your spirit, thoughts, fears, future, hopes, and dreams

That is truly being naked

Think left think right and think low and think high

Oh, the things you can think up if only you try

Do not fear death

Fear an unlived life

The more that you read

The more things you will know

The more that you learn

The more places you'll go

You cannot hang out with negative people

But

Expect to live a positive life

The truth is still the truth

Even if no one believes it

A lie is still a lie

Even if everyone believes it

I do not flirt

I just seduce with my awesome awkwardness

Make sure it is inspiring

What Sex Education Should Have Taught Us

Seriously, go read it, it is worth your time.  There is not a point when you have learned all there is to learn about anything, even something you do as often, enjoy as much, etc as sex.

Malibu Spiced Apple Crisp

4 large red apples
1 1/2 cups Malibu Island Spiced
1 1/2 cups old fashioned oats
1 cup plain flour
1 cup packed brown sugar
1 cup cold unsalted butter
1 Tbsp ground cinnamon
1 Tbsp ground nutmeg

Peel and thinly slice apples, soak in Malibu Island spiced for an hour.

In a large bowl mix oats, flour and sugar. Cut in cold butter until the crumble mixture has a sandy consistency.

Since you will use the Malibu Island Spiced in another step, take the sliced apples out and layer with the crumble mixture twice over in a 9"x4" pan. Pour the Malibu Island Spiced over the top layer of crumble.

Bake at 350F for 30 minutes

This recipe thanks to Malibu Rum. I love a company that comes up with recipes for its products, usually you can use a different companies product instead, but showing extra options is great.

A quick bit now that the shutdown is finished

You don't like a particular policy or a particular president?  Then argue for your position.  Go out there and win an election.  Push to change it.  But don't break it.  Don't break what our predecessors spent over two centuries building.  That's not being faithful to what this country's about.

~President Obama

A quick update on why things have changed

There have been a few times when I could not try to plan ahead to keep the random geeky coming.  For example when I ended up in the ER.

I have been looking at post no more often than 30 minutes, but never more than hour and a half (because that is when I start getting 'are you ok' messages).

Today I tried to sit down and put more into the post, have them a little less random, hopefully that makes up for posting less.  Then I remember I am off to fight the Aspergers, which is to say I am going dancing.  Private club I used to go to all the time, the Wetspot was an amazing place, hopefully I get the same comforting feeling walking it to it tonight as I did many, many, many ... moons ago.
