Cuddle Party

[ysabetwordsmith]

Everyone needs contact comfort sometimes.  Not everyone has ample opportunities for this in facetime.  So here is a chance for a cuddle party in cyberspace.  Virtual cuddling can help people feel better.

We have a cuddle room that comes with fort cushions, fort frames, sheets for draping, and a weighted blanket.  It has a basket of grooming brushes, hairbrushes, and styling combs.  A bin holds textured pillows. There is a big basket of craft supplies along with art markers, coloring pages, and blank paper.  The kitchen has a popcorn machine. Labels are available to mark dietary needs, recipe ingredients, and level of spiciness. Here is the bathroom, open to everyone.  There is a lawn tent and an outdoor hot tub. Bathers should post a sign for nude or clothed activity.  Come snuggle up!

Yeah, the wider society is not very welcoming. And then they wonder why so many people are anxious and unhealthy. Well, duh.

Yeah. So much is caught up in money these days it's insane. I didn't realize how much of that was the case until I started trying to be an independent contractor, and the doctor said it was a good thing that they're going toard licensing of massage therapists, not just certification )Whatever the difference was; I never can relly know, to me it's all the same, really). So...yeah there's that.

Totally okay. People often need confirmation afterwards, if they're not used to having safe emotional space.


He's getting there, but he's not quite there yet. Cassie and I give him what he needs ad do most of the rest of the family who know (And those who don't are kicked out so those who do can), but he's still got a long way to go.

I had no idea until recently that moving was this hard on the poor man. :(

They probably want to ban it altogether for everyone who lacks a license, which will destroy massage the way they largely destroyed midwifery. It keeps the cash cows from escaping the pen.

Yeah...that's what it .looks like. I'd have to look at the IPLA site but that's what's happening with most states I think.

Ug...:/ To me that's another tep in taking out rungs. I mean, like you said somethings need a specialization-medical massage does I would think-but the rest? Come on man.

On a sort of related note-even the term 'sexual harrassment' is new. I was hering stores from a woman in the sixties where they were playing around in the office and...well, they wouldn't be ablt to getaway with half the stuff she talked about today. It's just nuts how much freer society was back then.
