Consent

I've been reading some stuff about consent recently, and it's all about spoken consent and how that's super important.

Here's one of the articles I'm talking about:

I like e-mail the best - although the advantage of IM is that you get instant feedback - so the whole conversation sticks tightly to the curves of what exactly you're both interested in. But it doesn't tend to be as deep. Mostly I notice there are so many more things I can say when I'm writing instead of talking.

I've brought up ideas in writing that are much more complex than what I typically speak. Due to the fact that any given syllable can not come out - even though I've sent the signal to my mouth - or it can come out bass-ackwards.

Weirdly enough - actually knowing the other person a long time makes it easier.
