The thing about bottom surgery is just all your nerves get super fucked up and numb and weird and as they heal the nerves will reach back out to reconnect with each other one by one and when they do they have to do like an emergency broadcast drill test signal calibration thing that's like hitting every single key on the piano all at once while cycling through every single instrument in the orchestra except it's your nerves so the instruments and keys are like CUT WITH KNIFE, BURNED WITH FIRE, PRICKLED BY CACTUS, STUNG BY BEE, BROKEN BONE, ROUGH SAND, RUGBURN, FROZEN TO ICY POLE, CUNNILINGUS, CAR CRASH, ELECTROCUTION

And you'll be falling asleep and your mind will wander to a sexy little thought that prompts one nerve to reach back out to another nerve and you just suddenly wake up in the middle of the night to one extremely intense high pitched brief moment of KNIFEFORECACTUSBEEFRACTURESANDRUGICETONGUECOLLISSIONELECTROCUTION

And you have thousands and thousands of nerves in your clitoris alone and many others in the rest of the lower half of your body and they've all been impacted and this happens every single time a single nerve wakes up whenever it wakes up

So yeah anyway I'm very awake suddenly hello cohost I am here until I recover from my flaming car crash cunt first into an electrified deli meat slicer enough to get sleepy again. What's up west coast. Posting hard or hardly posting?
