    You don't have to back the project to be able to buy one though: you can preorder from the second production wave on their site currently. It isn't as if they are only selling to b…

    Unconditionally consent? That's insane. I have conditions on my consent every time I have sex. My consent is conditional on the fact that protection is used with my secondary partn…
