Do you have a boyfriend?

No. I don’t have a boyfriend and i don’t have a girlfriend. I don’t date children.
(Folks, feel free to use those terms yourselves, it’s not my concern; i just choose not to myself.)

But, anyway, to answer your real question: i am currently dating someone and he’s pretty neat. 

What is your favourite body part?

Generally? Brain, of course. 

In terms of what i notice/like in people i’m attracted to? I like a nice pair of arms and shoulders. It’s hard to pin down what exactly. But i like what i like.

On me? 
Well, this is interesting. There’s actually only one part of my body that i like at all and that is my left arm. Call me arrogant (i would laugh; it’s not remotely true), but my left arm is probably the best-looking arm in the world. I’m not exaggerating. I really love it. It’s the fucking best.

Can we see your arm please?

No. Sorry, but I can’t do that. 

I know that if i posted a photo of it i’d be totally remiss not to put a trigger warning. And there’s absolutely no fucking way i’m going to trigger-warning my own body.

I leave you the mystery.

Hey, i enjoy your blog a great deal. it’s irrelevant to what you cover, generally, but it comes up occasionally, so i’m curious- what sort of health/body stuff do you have going on?

Uhmm… 

I have cerebral palsy, which also causes joint pain and all sorts of crap; I have vestibulodynia (which you can read all about here); I have history of various psychiatric problems, which both informs my scepticism for contemporary attitudes towards mental illness and wellness.

I also have a bit of acne from when i was a teenager that still won’t quit. Although it has cleared up a lot since i stopped letting the dog lick my face.

My question is, what are your favourite disney characters?

I’m not going to list them all in order because that would take ages. I’ll only list the first 100 or so, okay?

1. Roger from 101 Dalmatians
2-102. The Dalmatians
103. The wolf from The Sword in the Stone
104. The girl squirrel from ” ” ” “
105. Winifred Banks
106. Ursula 

Is that enough? I think that’s enough.

Have you ever seen a dead body? 

Yes. Why?

Can you do a Xmas tag?
