When the Cause of a Sexless Relationship Is — Surprise! — the Man

We’ve been led to believe that men want to have sex all the time, so sexless relationships must be the woman’s fault. Turns out it’s a lot more complicated.

What I need is physical affection, touch and communication.
Some help in staying a member of society and not frightening other people will be needed.  I find I can deal with celibacy though I do not like it.  If your needs are great we may need to resort to toys or chemical help.

For Starters, Snoop Dogg and Neil Gorsuch

The couple’s contrasting political leanings allowed for healthy debate on their way to marriage.

Sooner is better.      As soon as you can is best.

Faith is not a subject for debate.
I will have to start with the foundations as will you.
Most people can understand facts are not debatable.
Admitted opinions are debatable.

British Investigators Visit Graves of Russian Ex-Spy’s Wife and Son

Days after Sergei V. Skripal and his daughter were found unconscious in Salisbury, England, chemical weapons specialists erected a tent around his son’s grave.

The Russians are digging their hole deeper.
Putin is leading.  Trump is an ally.

The son was cremated.

U.S. Allies Jostle to Win Exemptions From Trump Tariffs

Countries mixed appeals to friendship with threats of retaliation. But the lobbying frenzy risked undermining the ground rules of world trade.

Paul Krugman makes the point.
