Oh he's definitely a huge rear end in a top hat! It's just that he's often getting involved with other, much bigger assholes so it kind of works out for the best :)

All ancient folk heroes are dicks. My favorite is Beowulf. He kills like two whole monsters (one of whom he didn't respect enough to learn her name due to being a woman) and this entitles him to be Mayor of Christianity for like 30 years, until he finally has a midlife crisis and decides that serving the Christgod isn't very Geatish of him and then dies on his shield fighting a monster he had no business fighting even 30 years ago. If he'd come along a millennia and some change later he'd be in the Rare Pepe trade on 4chan but instead he was born in like 900AD Sweden so he is a great king of the age of the Epics.

okay, lockdown is official starting next week. The area I work in will be quarantined (but where I stay isn't... yet), so I'll have to work from home until (checks notes) April 14 goddamnit.

just found out that dogs can't get the lovely virus. Best news I heard all day.

Eldest boy forgot to take his ADHD meds this morning and decided to fight the entire school. Defeated a bench, a desk but the lockers proved to be too much of a challenge. He's been sent home for the duration of the day.

drrockso20 posted:

Call me stupid, but what does "enthusiastic consent" mean, first time I've heard the term

It’s phrasing to describe the importance of consent as a continuum that can be broken at any time, basically.

Basically, as I’m sure you know already, both parties in sexual intercourse should be super excited and eager the whole way through. If either party at any point is like, “gosh, I don’t know...” or the like, consent has been rescinded and everybody should respond accordingly.

Enthusiastic consent is imo a phrase to use with people to clear up the muddiness that some people, mostly men (and particularly YOUNG men) experience with whataboutisms when it comes to sex.

I was stoked to hear the same about cats glad our buddies are safe.

And Dang, sorry to hear about your boy, glad the school had the wherewithal to handle it without cops, in my area schools will use armed officers to deal with kids and it’s just loving egregious, hope they feel better soon.

My early morning involved me making GBS threads out my bladder and wondering if it was the onset of Covid19. No other symptoms have emerged. I feel fine right now, just a little dehydrated. Will keep track but was probably just something I ate.

Ugh I flew ACROSS THE DANG OCEAN for a wedding in Austria which has been canceled. It was supposed to be on Monday and if they'd chosen Saturday or Sunday we'd have made it just under the ban.

So now we're off to Munich from Paris tomorrow morning and I don't know what's happening after that.

And the mercy seat is awaiting,
And I think my head is burning,
And in a way I'm yearning,
To be done with all this measuring of proof.
An eye for an eye
And a tooth for a tooth,
And anyway I told the truth,
And I'm not afraid to die.
