  • Seriously. I bought some dirt cheap full grain leather biker boots 3 years ago; I have given them exactly 0 care, abused the snot our of them daily, and they are still holding up strong. These weren’t even boots meant for working and they still survived trudging through the various slops of all 4 minnesotan seasons for 3 years.

    As long as you are buying actual leather and not “genuine leather” then whatever you buy should easily last several years even if not cared for. Well cared for leather goods can last decades.



  • I’m assuming that this is a joke but just in case it isn’t you need to stop. If you’re seen doing this then you will be labeled a sex offender as you should be. Noone consented to being involved in your fetish. Noone is going to be aroused or stop and help. They are going to call the cops and you are going to get arested.

    Just to repeat it, do not ever subject anyone to sexual acts without prior explicit consent. Go get therapy now.

    Hydroxazine is an antihistamine (in the same family as diphenhydramine) which is frequently prescribed for anxiety relief and as a sleep aid. It is safe and usually well tolerated. While there is addiction potential like there is for diphenhydramine, it is far far less addictive than benzos. An adult can safely take up to 100mg up to 4 times per day for anxiety relief. I can’t find dosages for insomnia anywhere but that probably because most people get completely knocked out by 30-50mg let alone 100mg. For reference, I’m a 260lb dude and 50mg will take me from anxiety attack to entirely unconsious in less than 30 minutes; a friend of mine says 25mg is enough to knock them out. Being an anticholinergic drug it isn’t great for long term use but it is still a whole lot better in that regard than benzos.

    I know from my mother who is a nurse midwife that high dosages of hydroxazine are frequently given to women in labor when it’s going to be several hours until the baby actually starts ariving to let them sleep through most of the labor. If it can make someone sleep through labor pains I can’t imagine insomnia it couldn’t handle.





  • It’s usually epididymitis which is a swelling of the epididymus which is the sack attached to the testicles that stores sperm. Basically, after the vasectomy, sperm can’t be expelled in the typical manner anymore but the body will keep producing it regardless so it has to break it down reabsorb it; if for some reason sperm is being prodiced faster than it is being broken down then it starts to back up and cause swelling in the epydidymus which is painful. How painful it is is going to vary a lot depending on the person. I’ve had a vasectomy and I ocasionally get pain from it. Just every once in a while (averaging about once a month) my balls ache with pain that rates between 2/10 and 4/10. Usually it doesn’t even last a full day but sometimes it lasts up to a week. Even knowing about this I still would have chosen to get a vasectomy.
