So as the house gets warmed up to go let me give a few updates I found out!

Voting Present LOWERS the number necessary to win, so it SHOULD be 219 with the full house but because Spartz votes Present it's 218

ARGUABLY if more Republicans vote Present but the 20 stick to their guns, the Democrats COULD win with 212 but Republicans don't want that

Buck who left for a non emergency medical procedure yesterday may not be back

We're starting up with only 275 reps present cause it's more than half but YIKES. Though I would assume more are showing up

a Californian Republican just got up to nominate McCarthy just to see how fast he loses. He's saying it's NOT ABOUT McCARTHY. FRIENDO YEAH IT IS. Lolll he's talking about serving the country with "Pure and Selfless intent~" and like idfk if any human can do taht.

ughghg the Republicans also keep bringing up fentinol overdoses and immigration and how it's going UnChEcKeD while we vote.

oh interesting, he thanked the national police (happily everyone got up and clapped for them) to pretend like Republicans care AT ALL about them.

... Sir why we talking about China, I don't think this is gonna move anybody you wanna move???

Jesus, he's trying to scare ppl into voting together cause the world is in DANGERRRR but like, THESE ARE THE PPL THAT REFUSED TO WEAR A MASK CAUSE IT MADE THEM UNCOMFY while people DIED. So loll ur talking for nothing sir. Hahahaha he's like, I agree w you shits but I WOrk w OtHeRsss and that's how you gotta WoRk!!! lolll

Oh here we go, telling the Dems they're on the EDGE of a VERY IMPORTANT VICTORY. Loll sure you lil dipshit. OH OH RUDE he just said, looking to the Dems I realize i haven't met many of you cause you're not here, voting by proxy. WOW, rumbles in the crowd and then the Clerk had to bang the gavel and be like HEY, UR SUPPOSED TO DIRECT COMMENTS TO THE BENCH.

Ur useless dude, this is too long of a speech. And stupidly blaming all of it on the Dems

South Carolina Rep is up for the Democrats

Awww he thanked the Clerk who's been running this circus and all the Dems rose and the Clerk smiled and mouthed thank you.

He's talking about learning lessons and working to be a better govt but flowery-er. Ah okay he's bringing up Jan 6. Resiliency. USA was made for liberty, justice, and freedom. Pointing out that it's the first time in over 100 years that they can't figure out who to vote for. The goodness of the american people is at stake??? Jeffries is a good dude i guess lol.

Oh lord almighty Gaetz is up and saying HE TAKES EXCEPTION TO THE CALIFORNIA REPS STATEMENTSSS. LOLL oh shit and he's saying that McCarthy is only speaker if he GETS THE VOTES and he DON'T HAVE THE VOTES. And he's saying it's vanity making McCarthy keep going. LOLL AND I THINK THE DEMS CLAPPED FOR THAT. hahaha ppl are yelling at him and order had to be called. HAHAH Gaetz just called him LaBron James but that would mean that McCarthy was a WINNER AT SOME POINT.

Oh dude don't fucking bring up PURITY you lily white fuck. Damn he's just calling out his own party. He's saying their intentions when trying to negotiate w him weren't PUUUREEE. Again humans, nothings gonna be pure my dude.

Mr SQUINTS IS BACK!!!

Bottom line, they don't trust McCarthy, saying it's for the ppl

WOAH WAIT HE JUST NOMINATED JIM JORDAN AGAIN, NO

Boebert is up to nominate Hern. She keeps pointing out that he was unanimously voted as chairman for something and that he's gonna be united. Blahblahblah inflation, republican talking points. Oh yay quickly ended

OH SHIT AND WE'RE VOTING ROUND 12!!!

[theirloveisgross]

Ooooh, rumours that he'll be at Seth Meyer's show tonight. That's where he is, in those photos. Annndddd... The show is at the time the countdown ends. 12:35am EST/9:35pm PST.

Delay: 1h 30Min

Driving home for Christmas 

Before I even left home I was notified that my second train would be arriving at my destination 1 hour late. First train departed 10 Minutes late. Fine. Can deal with that. Made it to cologne relatively easy. Decided to take an alternative train to Essen there since my mandatory train connection was lifted thanks to the big delay. The suggested alternative doesn't have any information as to what track it will be arriving at. Since I don't have the time to go and ask an employee before that train would leave, I look for the next alternative. 5 Minutes before that alternative was set to depart I get notified that it won't be stopping in Essen anymore. I look for another alternative, roughly 10 minutes later. 5 minutes before the departure of that train I get notified that one won't be stopping in Cologne after all. I look for an alternative again. The first suggested alternative is apparently later than expected and set to arrive in 4 minutes, now there is information on what track. I run for my life. I make it to that train. Miraculously arrive in Essen 4 minutes before I was set to arrive in general. The train I had originally booked makes it to Essen 1,5 hours late.

Sueños

Lunes 12 de julio del 2021 a las 6:05pm

Esta semana escribiré y dibujare las cosas que sueño, como sueño a diario me servirá como practica empezando desde hoy; todo empezó cuando entre a una tienda de cerámica y móviles, la tienda estaba en frente del mar cuando entre yo estaba comiendo una paleta y llevaba una cobija roja porque hacia frio, me senté en una silla dentro de la tienda viendo como unas personas dentro empezaban a romper cosas de la tienda por accidente, ese fue el primer sueño el segundo era que se rompía mi pecera mientras dormía, me voy a la sala y encontraba dos peceras unidas era raro parecía como si se hubieran bugeado, había más peces de los que tengo incluso habían cangrejos yo estaba tipo me gusta pero como la pecera se bugeo así.

Martes 13 de julio del 2021 a las 7:03pm

Este sueño creo que fue muy corto, yo estaba en un prado de rosas, estaba recolectando estas flores para hacer un té que servía para curar algo no es el que lo demás que soñé fueron cosas sin importancia aunque recuerdo soñar con un río, mar o algo con agua pero no lo recuerdo bien.

Miércoles 14 de julio del 2021 a las 10:35pm

Todo empezó con que yo estaba persiguiendo un fantasma de una tipa por un callejón después alguien random se me acercaba para llevarme a una fiesta sorpresa al parecer era mi amigo, en la fiesta habían como 200 amigos más waa tenía amigos, la fiesta era festejando mi cumpleaños, el lugar era como si fuera un mundo de cubitos con esos cubitos me construyeron cosas random todo era risas y diversión también me dieron regalos cuando termino la fiesta llegue a la casa donde antes vivía para abrir mis regalos uno de ellos eran macarrones con bombones de patitos eran una combinación rara entre patitos de hule, con estampas y comida no sé cómo explicarme.

Jueves 15 de julio del 2021 a las 7:30pm

Yo estaba en una tienda donde vendían joyería, estaba viendo unos aretes no sé si los quería robar o comprarlos, no me decidía entre unos morados o rojos  y en eso suena la alarma de la joyería al parecer alguien se me adelanto, entonces cambia la escena a un bosque donde estaba con otras personas creo que eran los mismos que robaron la joyería, nos perdíamos en el bosque cuando de repente encontrábamos una taza de baño me decían que esa era la salida y que buscara el túnel correcto, me metía a la taza y los túneles eran como toboganes de agua cuando salí estaba en un tipo laboratorio secreto o algo así, me escondía en unos baños pero me encontraban, me estaban persiguiendo cundo de repente no sé si cambio la escena o unas de las salidas daba a una escuela yo ya tenía el uniforme de esta, estaba enojada porque me habían descubierto y en eso llega un tipo mamadisimo y me dice que me tranquilice, al final salíamos de la escuela y nos fuimos a comprar cosas a una plaza con otros amigos aparte del tipo mamado.

Viernes 16 de julio del 2021

Todo empezó como un sueño normal yo estaba en donde vivía antes viendo el celular sentada en una banquita y de repente empezaba a llorar de eso cambia el sueño y ahora yo estaba como en un mundo de cubitos otra vez, yo y un amigo empezábamos a dar nuestra opinión sobre la casita de otro amigo, le decíamos que cambiara los bloques, él no quería entonces nosotros dos empezábamos a remodelar su casa y eso es todo creo.

Sábado 17 de julio del 2021

Empezó en una escuela de noche estábamos haciendo un convivio con unos amigos, todos estaban sentados en círculos, pero me aburrí así que me fui a ver las estrellas con uno de ellos, eran muchas estrellas y brillaban mucho después de íbamos a una tienda de mascotas yo me entretenía viendo unos cuyos y hámster, estaba pensando en comprarme uno de los dos, la tipa que atendía la tienda me daba recomendaciones yo estaba tipo si a todo.

TONIGHT on ME-TV @ 12:35pm EST, one of the GREATEST episodes of Rod Serling's THE TWILIGHT ZONE: "NUMBER TWELVE LOOKS JUST LIKE YOU" (written by John Tomerlin, directed by Abner Biberman, originally broadcast January 24, 1964) This Twilight Zone episode, an adaptation of Charles Beaumont's 1952 story, "The Beautiful People," boasts a bounty of sublime touches that illuminate much more beyond the confines of the story’s setting, a futuristic hospital where patients cheerfully undergo “The Transformation” into vacuous lookalikes, prefiguring Ira Levin's The Stepford Wives, the book (1972) and the movie ('75), by a decade: The casting of the real-life supermodel of the day, Suzy Parker, as the mother; the suggestion, when her maid is condescended to, that despite having the same supermodel looks as Parker, class differences will always trump physical differences; the panacean drug of choice, "Instant Smile"; naming the doomed daughter “Marilyn” (Monroe died a year and a half earlier) and her girlfriend, a proto-Valley Girl, “Val” (who recites The State's anthem, “Life is pretty, Life is fun, I am all and all is one!”); the original meta mid-episode commercial for “Thrill” dish detergent that offers women “a new pair of hands”; poetic, philosophical dialogue like, "When everyone is beautiful, no one will be; because without ugliness, there can be no beauty"; and finally, Twilight Zone creator Serling’s concluding, clairvoyant voiceover: “Portrait of a young lady in love—with herself. Improbable? Perhaps. But in an age of plastic surgery, body building and an infinity of cosmetics, let us hesitate to say impossible. These, and other strange blessings, may be waiting in the future, which, after all, is The Twilight Zone." arlenschumer.com/twilight-zone #rodserling #twilightzone #thetwilightzone #arlenschumer #tv #television #tvhistory #televisionhistory @dgareps @nyadventureclub @the_richardsyrettshow @adamschumer https://www.instagram.com/p/CnhbXxQLsjR/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

8 "Kinds Of Sex" All Married Couples Should Put Into Rotation

Let us be your motivation.

Shellie R. Warren

Jun. 12, 2020 05:35PM EST

The 90s is my favorite era of R&B (fight me, if you wanna). There's no time or space to get into all of the reasons why. For now, I'll provide a song example of why it's unmatched. As I was sitting down to write this piece, a song that came into my mind is the 1990 jam, "Show Me" by Howard Hewett. While the song certainly stands on its own, what I really like is the fact that his wife (at the time), Nia Peeples was in the video. His lead was his spouse. He used his visual to not only honor her but his marriage. To me, that is beyond dope infinity. And because I've always been aware of the fact that the video featured a husband and wife pairing, I always revered it with a kind of honor and, even sacredness, than a lot of other songs and visuals.

For many reasons, I see married sex the same way. When two people make the conscious choice and commitment to share the rest of their lives with one another, it just makes me respect their sex life on a whole 'nother level. That's why, as a marriage life coach, I am such an advocate for husbands and wives to participate in as much coitus as possible…as often as possible.

One time, while in a session with a couple, they asked me if there was "just one way to have sex". They weren't speaking of positions and technique. Nah, what they were referring to is should there be different ways to approach that type of intimacy with their partner. I found that to be a very insightful and profound question. While there are probably a dozen more ways than the eight that I'm about to share, I do think that in order for a husband and wife to feel truly fulfilled in their sexual intimacy with one another, there are the "kinds of sex" that need to happen on a consistent basis. If that doesn't make sense to you now, I'm hoping that it will by the time this piece is done. (Oh, and feel free to throw on some 90s R&B in the background, while you're reading, if you'd like.)

1. Morning Sex

media.giphy.com

I can't tell you how many married couples have sang the praises of morning sex to me before. 

There is one husband, in particular, who cracks me up, every time I think about what he digs so much about it. "I'm telling you, if I'm able to get some head before the day starts, my wife can hit me up about wanting a new pair of shoes, her mom coming for dinner, or her maxing out a credit card and I'm basically going to be like, 'Yes Dear'."

What is it about morning sex that is so…refreshing? For one thing, since men, on average, have five erections that last 25 minutes each throughout the night, if they wake up with morning wood, sex is a fantastic release. Also, for both men and women, morning sex is an awesome way to de-stress, reconnect and also get an energy charge before the day begins. So, if you're married and you can't remember the last time you let your genitalia rather than an alarm clock awaken you, try and be more intentional about participating in a lil' bit of morning coitus. It beats the hell out of a cup of java. No doubt about it.

2. Quickie Sex

media.giphy.com

Whenever I think of quickie sex, necessity is what comes to mind. Although I'll be the first one to say that married sex serves a myriad of purposes (check out "10 Wonderful Reasons Why Consistent Sex In Marriage Is So Important"), let's not act like sometimes we just don't need to "get that thing off". Quickie sex isn't (always or necessarily) about being romantic or engaging in a lot of foreplay. Quickie sex is more in the lane of, "I'm horny and I need to handle this so that I can relax and/or focus and/or get on to the other stuff that I need to do."

Unfortunately, because some people think that all sex needs to look like something out of a chick flick, they don't allow themselves (or their partner) to enjoy quickies as often as they should. If you're one of those individuals, I'd encourage you to look at quickies from another angle. Shouldn't one of the benefits of being married be that sex is more convenient? Because your partner is easily accessible, you don't have to do a lot of planning and preparing. Plus, (hopefully) you both know how to get each other off, so pleasure is a surefire thing with them. Since this is the case, while brushing your teeth, sitting on the couch or preparing dinner, you can pull stuff down (or move it over), handle your business and go on with your day. To me, that is not a "problem"; that is a blessing, chile.

3. Scheduled Sex

media.giphy.com

While some people hate the idea of scheduling sex, I don't. In fact, whenever the topic comes up, what I usually say is all scheduling sex is about is prioritizing it. While it would be nice if all sex could be "random" and "spontaneous" (more on that in just a sec), the reality is that most of us have pretty tight to-do lists. So, if we don't make it a point to plan certain things out, they would never happen. Now, no one is saying that scheduled sex means that you've got to be as tight and rigid as Mrs. Elena Richardson (Reese Witherspoon) was in Little Fires Everywhere (in her house, sex only happened on Wednesdays and Saturdays; her poor husband). But if you and yours have so much going on that scheduling sex is gonna be better than having no sex at all, pull out your Google calendar and designate when your private parts can get some quality time in. 10-15 percent of all marriages are sexless ones. I'd venture to say a big part of the reason why is because couples aren't prioritizing their sex lives nearly as much as they need to or should.

4. Spontaneous Sex

media.giphy.com

Everything in life is about balance, right? While scheduled sex certainly serves its purpose, so does spontaneous sex. The thing that I like about this kind of copulation is, another word for spontaneous is, impulsive. To be impulsive is to participate in something that is almost involuntary. In a sexual context, it's like you want your partner so bad that you don't even think about where you are or if it's a good time or not to get some; you've got to have them and so you're gonna make it happen. If it's a public place, so be it. If it's in the middle of the day, it's all good. While life might not make it possible to be spontaneous in this way all of the time, partaking in this type of sex is a great way for your partner to feel loved and lusted (which is "a passionate or overmastering desire or craving"). It also can keep a married couple's sex life spicy and interesting.

6. Hotel Sex

media.giphy.com

Not too long ago, I watched All Def Digital's Squad Cast talk about why they prefer to have sex at home over having sex in a hotel room (it's at the 1:25:07 mark). To be fair, a lot of them are touring comedians, so they spend a lot of time in hotels (even KevOnStage said that hotels have lost their allure because of it). But as someone who used to have quite a bit of hotel sex (back when I was having sex) and also as someone who puts married couples in hotels, free of charge, from time to time, I am a HUGE FAN of hotel sex. Hotels provide a change of scenery. If it's a quality one, the beds tend to feel amazing. And, you can oftentimes find little "perks" to make you feel pampered (like room service, couples' massages or jacuzzi tubs). While I do think it's healthy for couples to plan romantic trips at least once a year, sometimes budgets and other life demands make that a close to impossible feat to pull off. But something that almost every husband and wife can do is spend at least one night in a hotel room. I personally haven't met one couple who doesn't come back from hotel sex feeling renewed. If you've never done it, at least try it. I'd be shocked if you didn't like—no, absolutely love—it!

7. Comfort Sex

media.giphy.com

I remember once going to a bridal shower and someone asking everyone to offer up sex advice for the bride-to-be. When it came time for a senior elder's (of a church) wife to speak, she said, "Don't deny your husband unless you're deathly ill." When some of the women turned up their nose at her response, she simply said, "I've been married almost 50 years. A lot of you are divorced." (Geeze.) While I'm definitely not the woman who thinks that people should have sex when they don't feel like it, I do think it's important for married people to treat sex like it's a staple in their relationship and not just a…hobby.

However, the reason why I'm even bringing all of this up is because I think it's important to remind some wives that when you don't feel like doing it, oftentimes it's how you refuse your husband that can potentially put a wedge between the two of you. It's so important to remember that a lot of men feel totally vulnerable when trying to initiate sex, so when they are turned down in a flippant or cold way, that can cause them to feel rejected—not just physically but as if all of them is being dismissed. 

It's not talked about enough that sometimes husbands want to be with their wives, not because they are "horny" so much as they want to feel loved, accepted and yes, comforted. Listen, I am all about Black love and it's hard for Black men and women out here. If there's one place where any spouse should feel soothed, consoled and reassured, it's within their marriage. Sometimes that comes in the form of being as close to their partner as possible. Comfort sex isn't talked about, nearly as much as it should be. It's needed though. A lot.

7. Reconciliation Sex

media.giphy.com

Reconcile is a dope word. One of my favorite definitions of it is "to bring into agreement or harmony; make compatible or consistent". While I'm not a huge fan of the phrase "make love" (because, as I oftentimes say, sex should celebrate love not create it), I do think that choosing to love someone, each and every day of your life, (hopefully) for the rest of your life, requires extreme time, effort and energy. Because a marriage consists of two flawed human beings, there are going to be times when husbands and wives are not "walking in agreement", when they aren't exactly in harmony with each other. Sometimes, one of the best ways to get back in sync with each other is to partake in what I call "reconciliation sex".

While, on the surface, that might seem like make-up sex, it's not 100 percent the same thing. Oftentimes, make-up sex is relied upon as a diversion or a coping mechanism when couples don't know how to properly communicateand/or resolve their issues. Reconciliation sex is more like…what a couple does to reward themselves once they have figured out how to get back on the same page about something. It is a physical act that affirms and confirms that they are back in agreement and harmony again. Because sex is such a beautiful, powerful and intimate thing, when two people feel like they have mentally and emotionally reunited, it can do wonders for the relationship to acknowledge that by engaging in physical intimacy. Hot, steamy, sexy, "nasty", totally mind-blowing sexual intimacy.

8. "Holy" Sex

media.giphy.com

I picked this GIF on purpose. It's from the 1940s classic filmCabin in the Sky starring Lena Horne, Ethel Waters, Louis Armstrong, Duke Ellington, Eddie Anderson and a host of others. If you've never seen it before, the love that Petunia (played by Waters) had for her husband, Little Joe (played by Anderson) was nothing short of spiritual and supernatural. That woman prayed for that man to break his bad habits as if her very life depended on it. It's a cinematic reminder that marriage has a sacred component to it; and so does married sex.

That's why, to me, whenever two people are married, I most definitely believe that sex is an act of worship. What I mean by that is there is a reverence in the act that is very special within a marital union. It's because of that that articles on our site like "Ashley Graham & Her Husband Say Prayer Is The Ultimate Form Of Foreplay" make complete and total sense to me and lyrics like "You're the blessing that I never thought I would get/And to the Lord I humbly bow my head" from Usher's "Here I Stand" seem like they would be the perfect kind of background music for a sex session. 

If you're someone who believes that marriage is a spiritual union, then surely you must believe that the Most High is a part of it. To me, "holy sex" is about remembering the foundation and Source of your love. It's about approaching intimacy in a spirit of pure sacredness and gratitude. It's about acknowledging that, so long as your spirits are in sync, your bond is close to invincible. 

Hmph. Let me tell it, if there's any "kind of sex" that a husband and wife should have the most often, this one would definitely top the list. Let the Church say, "Amen", y'all. Now what kind of sex are you and yours gonna have tonight?
