And again, on the bad boys call, I want to highlight, but I can't read because it's too long, but I will direct everyone's attention to No Cute Names comment about the same caller on this week's show. Again, too long to share here, but it is a really good critique of my advice.

And No Cute Name identifies a blind spot of mine, maybe a blind spot that everybody who is out there giving sex and relationship advice has and one we have to guard against. No cute name, read your comment, took it to heart, recommending others, go and give it a read. All right, for more listener feedback, check out Struggle Session every Thursday at savage.love.

Reading a sex advice column at a time like this to say nothing of writing a sex advice column at a time like this might seem a little pointless, but I've lived long enough to know that seemingly pointless distractions, small comforts, even guilty pleasures, have the power to sustain us in bad times.

Taking a moment to read or write a sex advice column or listen to or make music or watch or make porn doesn't mean you're complacent, doesn't mean you're complicit. Because those little things, the little joys, the small pleasures, even especially the guilty ones, they have the power to keep us sane, to keep us connected, and keep us going.
