Sounds of sex bring tennis match to a halt - News

During the round of 32 match between Americans Frances Tiafoe and Mitchell Krueger play came to a halt due to the sensual sounds of adultery.

AUDIO ON! NSFW (probably ok - but don’t chance it) 

Honestly- at first all I could think was fuck- this could be me ( If i was in Florida the other night)…and then I wondered if maybe Tink ( my ex gf) was on vacation in Florida!!!! This is TOTALLY her. 

[stacynothername]

Absolutely yes it is totally me, my vibe. Hahah

Sadly it wasn't actually me because I refused to enter the US during the Orange Bastard's first term (except for that one business trip with my husband).

I'm still not travelling to the US, a much larger more horrifying dumpster fire now than it was pre-Covid but @annikablushingkiss would be welcome here.

I had a choice: I could either let the darkness of the world swallow me, or I could do what I could to help make the world a little bit brighter.

This is a much more poetic expression of my personal goals. It's why I practice law. It's why I chose to be a parent to our kids and to their high school BFFs. Fighting to break out of the darkness is instinctive. #70smicropreemie #miraclebaby #lovewins

Curlers are so hot when they yell hhHHAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRDD

[stacynothername]

Omg yes. I met my now girlfriend Peach at curling. She often skips and so yells this with gusto. 🔥

[wonderful-emoji]

[stacynothername]

Have I mentioned that I've taken up curling? It began as a way to find 🌈 community, first when I moved away for work then after I moved back.

A lot clicked for me when my mom said the reason she was so reactive towards me as a kid was that she assumed intent behind things I did, rather than recognizing my behaviors for being normal kid behaviors or normal autism behaviors. So I got treated as if I was an adult who was intentionally doing things to upset her. She'd react to me like I had the maturity and wherewithal to do things in a cruel or manipulative way, making her life harder, when I was just existing. Just trying to learn how to cope and be a person myself. When she told me this I stopped in my tracks trying to process. Why would anyone's default assumption be that a kid is trying to antagonize them instead of like, struggling with something they're experiencing? But she was also raised the exact same way, treated like everything she did carried the weight of adult responsibility, not seen as a kid.

[assaultsofthought]

As a child therapist who focuses on audhd kids THIS!! So often parents put intent behind kids actions when it’s just “kid trying to feel safe and comfortable”. babies are not trying to “manipulate “ you, kids and teens are just pushing back to figure out the boundaries of their world, if a kid doesn’t like something don’t force it on them. Stop expecting better emotional regulation from your child than you’ve ever shown them.

[stacynothername]

OMG. I feel this.

this emerged in my head when I was trying to drive

May I propose the fill ins?

#i am undiagnosing myself with 'adhd' and rediagnosing myself with 'cursed by wizard'

[stacynothername]

Cursed by wizard sounds pretty bad ass. I'll take that!

Friendly reminder that Graham Chapman was out and talking about bisexuality on a national late night talk show in 19-fucking-82.

[stacynothername]

Woah. I did not know that. Props to Graham Chapman (and thanks to David Letterman & production team for letting it happen!)

just remembered last summer when one of our old lady neighbors realized i was on testosterone and asked me if i liked cars and when i said no she was like “oh haha you will”

[3000s]

hormone that makes you like cars

[stacynothername]

If you're a Canuck, hormone that makes you like hockey hahaha 💉🌈🏒

[lesbianfujoshis]

I wasn’t born gay. I watched Elton John host the muppets when I was six and that was that.

[stacynothername]

Hmmm for my kids it was having the Fisher Price (Little People) Noah's Ark with the rainbow flag when they were little... playing with it then storing it IN THE CLOSET 😎😁🥰

[nomornersnofunerals]

If you're single and bi does that mean you're on standbi ?

[stacynothername]

Ha! This is so good I had to share!

[mysar-cophagus]

Me any chance I get:

IM GAY

Me around my family:

*is gay but quietly*

[autumn-asters]

my aunt at the family dinner: so i heard you got a boyfriend?

me: uh yeah i am currently in a relationship with someone...

my mom: do we get to meet him?

me, a wlw:

[stacynothername]

Hahaha I can relate. I respect the heck out of chosen family as a concept, practice and IRL but it would be nice if my family of origin "got real cool about a bunch of stuff really quickly". ...sigh.

Awe reminds me of the time just after I met (was dating?) my Freddy and he made chocolate dipped strawberries for his coworkers.

Now I am really craving chocolate and lucious things in my mouth and my Freddy. 17 sleeps until I see him

Sigh.

[stacynothername]

Follow up -- seeing my Freddy was great, doing it as a solo trip to the other side of the planet was great too! No romance was rekindled :( our friendship was strengthened :) and so I guess that's what makes it a situationship (as dubbed by my Bonus Kid S)😁😁

Freddy is doing so well and I loved being able to see where he's living, what his workplace looks like, meeting his colleagues....and having some time on my own.

It wasn't all smooth sailing, we had some rocky times and misunderstandings. There's one particular incident I'm having trouble shaking off, but I believe that's more a reflection of some of my own anxiety /issues than an actual Thing IYKWIM.

Boys and men cover their heads at synagogue. Usually wearing a kippah but in a pinch any hat is acceptable, so long as the head is covered. Anyway, context out of the way...

Shout out to the kid at synagogue testing how far the rules bend by wearing a shark hat to services. You're doing great, sweetie.

[stacynothername]

This reminds me of the time my friend's toddler / young child insisted on wearing a tiger costume to church, weekly. Also iirc to school.

the good thing about black yarn is that it hides your mistakes. the bad thing about black yarn is that it makes you make mistakes.

[stacynothername]

So true! I made a blanket for a family member in their school colours and nope, not going to do many thousands of stitches in black ever again.
