Americans are a materialistic bunch and I am no exception. And now that I’m faced with the task of moving all my stuff into a new apartment, I understand why too much stuff can be bad. My lease ends in two days; I’ve already found a new place, and I’m moving in with some good friends, but moving still sucks.

Somehow over the past year I’ve accumulated a substantial pile of sh*t, and it’s currently sitting in the center of my room. I need to dig through it, sort it out, and pack it in boxes so I can schlep it across town. Really, I need to downsize my life.

Her Depot: Home Depot for the Ladies

Her Depot - Home DepotHey ladiiiiiiiies!

After a bit of web sleuthing I can now see the charms in this portable coitus cushion.

Liberator products - yes, they sell much more than the sex ramp; more on that later - are IKEA-esque cushions, couches and ramps that are used for the same reason you lay down newspaper for your dog: mess control. The last thing you need is a not-so-secretive splooge stain on the futon your mom bought as a housewarming gift.

As sex props, these pieces of sexual furniture do their job. Each cushion is designed for maximum pleasure in a particular position; the “Zeppelin” acts as a “love ship” modeled for threesomes and orgies while the “Cube” (main pic is tasteful; others are NSFW) is all about space-saving sex.
