Probably True

Words

Season 9, Ep. 5

Part 3 of the Love Languages miniseries looks at Words of Affirmation: How to craft a compliment, how to make it all about them, and how to take (a compliment) like a pro. 

Also, Jurassic World, Americans, and getting addicted to saying nice things about people. It's like heroin, but not actually like it at all.

---

Stories of queer life and even queer-er sex. 

The repeatedly award-winning, slightly filthy storytelling project tackling LGBTQ issues in a fun and engaging way. Created to remind all of our queer siblings that we are none of us alone.

Much like its creator, it’s a smutty-but-charming collection of personal misadventures working to make the world a better place, one silly, sexy story at a time.
