The trailer for the new Freddie Mercury biopic came out and I'm pissed - there's no mention of his HIV/AIDS or his queerness. Let's talk more about Freddie's REAL life and how it weaves into the HIV/AIDS crisis. (TW death, queer erasure, queermisia)

TW: Medications, death, grieving, and I cry for like ten minutes. Yay?
I’ve talked a lot about arthritis. For nearly the last decade, it’s the bulk of the work I’ve done. On my other site, notstandingstillsdisease.com, I’ve worked on not only talking about my own health but how we can improve healthcare systems. Today, though, let’s stick to arthritis facts since May is Arthritis Awareness Month.
Now, if you’ll excuse me, I have ...

Content note for mentions of suicide, sexual violence
First, I discuss O.School and why a lot of us are leaving it or were forced out - they don't actually support sex workers.

Endometriosis is an incredibly painful condition where the lining of the uterus grows outside the uterus. It's vastly underdiagnosed, undertreated, and assumed to just be 'bad' period pain. This can cause excessive bleeding, pain with bathrooming, pain with sex, and much, much more. Endo affects approximately 176 million people worldwide.
Today I'm talking with Isabelle Lauren - a blogger, writer of erotica and sex toy reviewer. S...

This week, I talk with photographer, writer/author, and general badass: Lene Andersen. As you will hear, she is one of the reasons that Chronic Sex started. She is a wonderful advocate, activist, and pal. Keep in mind that this episode was recorded over the summer of 2016. That said, we mention a contest for SYLK that has since run and ended.
