    As a poly person: no, it is not a “affiar-tolerant monogamy”. That is an open relationship.

    Polyamorous partnerships are far more committed. Also, sex is not always a part of it.

    Of course there is the concept of a primary partner, but there are lot of poly folks that thislike this idea.

    But what all of those relationships have in common: there is no case where only one partner is poly. All is about communication and consent.

    And to the core topic: There is this thing like a polycule. A network of people with somehow connected relationships. Breakups in those structures are often consensual and no big fuzz. But if it gets dirty, at least in my experience, the offending member of the polycoule gets shown the door. And most of the times, those are the new ones. People that think the could convince their partner to get monogamous because they are the only one that is needed.

    Sorry for the long post, you hit a nerve there ;)



  • We are leasing our cars.

    Regarding the feel: The car does feel surprisingly light. Besides his 2.2 metric tons.

    At least here in Europe, the Tesla superchargers work with the car.

    Not sure if this generation is already available in the US. I am german, so BMW is a natural choice ;).

    Currently, BMW is using the same base for combustion and electric cars to safe costs ans be more flexible how to fit the chassis. That may be a reason for the success.

    Nor sure how the price in the US is, the list price for my nearly fully equipped i5 is around 90k€. The only thing I am missing is the pneumatic dampeners. They come only with red or blue breaks, and company policy does not allow for “racing looks”.
