Hi, I’m one of those people who is late to every fandom (all the better for having fanfic to read)! My name is pronounced like “yak.” I use any pronouns and identify as aro/ace/cisn’t. Hablo español. My floof sideblog is @were-jak. In my offline life I work in healthcare, I sometimes talk about that here. I occasionally post 18+ content, interact at your own risk. I practice Ship and Let Ship and kinktomato. I collect fandoms and am a serial commenter on AO3. Give me fic recs please - I’m always up for fic suggestions! If you read this far, let’s be friends.

...what is the "sex is just rock climbing" category
It was kind of a joke between me and a friend ("you wouldn't judge someone for having gone rock climbing with a bunch of different people") but honestly the more I thought about it the more I bought into it unironically because:
It is a physical activity done with one or more partners
You should only go rock climbing with people you trust to not let you fall
You should not go rock climbing with someone who is drunk or currently incapable of rational decision-making
Some people get super super super into rock climbing and do not shut up about all the places they have climbed and how many are left on their bucket list and these people are usually men between the ages of 20 and 35 and like it's fine dude I'm glad you're happy but I don't know what most of those mountains even are
While many consider it a fun activity, pressuring someone into climbing when they don't want to (or ignoring their feelings and just dangling them off a cliff,) could cause both psychological and physical trauma
There is no moral value to it whatsoever. Who you have gone rock climbing with (or whether you have rock climbed at all) has no bearing on who you are as a person. Imagine telling someone "it's not that heights make you nauseous, it's just that you haven't found the right person to belay you!" or "you need to save your first time rock climbing for someone special." That would be absurd.
For some people it is a deep and moving personal experience.
historically I have not asked myself "will this aggravate my hip flexor injury" before participating when perhaps I should have 😔

Physical therapy is wild because they're always like "hey do this weird little movement" and you're like "hmm my brain doesn't seem to know how to activate that movement" and then they'll like trick your brain into doing it by making you do other movements first or making you resist against them moving you or some shit and your brain is like oooooh ✅ new movement unlocked. And then they tell you to do that movement 20 times a day and you do and it makes some part of your body you didn't even know was related hurt less. What the fuck.

I adore this recent trend (if that's the right word) of letting an orchestra play classical music on a festival. It's magical to see thousands of festival-goers going absolutely wild on Beethoven. Mosh/circlepits, crowd surfing. It's wonderful to see the orchestra and the audience having the time of their lives.

One cool fact that I think more people should know is that, in the late 18th and early 19th century, it was Quite Trendy for people to take their maiden name, or the maiden name of one of their ancestors, and use it as a first name for their daughters, which is why Henry Portman of Mompesson House, who married Anne Wyndham, had a daughter named Wyndham Portman, and is also why Seymour Fleming (she of Scandalous Lady W fame) was named after her grandmother, Jane Seymour, and is also why
I have a direct ancestor

Overheard in the office hallway between two older businessmen:
“Don’t you dare pull my shirt up, I have a meeting.”
