You already know who i am.

I definitely have BO, but I can’t smell my own, typically. however, I also just don’t find the smell of sweat/BO particularly offensive.
I’ve started using not an antiperspirant, but a substance that acts like a deodorant, because my partner is VERY sensitive to smells and mine apparently sets her off pretty badly.
Obama was all into war crimes in the middle east too, so I can’t pretend I’m surprised.
hmmmmmm
my partner felt much the same way you do - she had never had a boyfriend before we got together, when she was 28.
we met through a dating site - OKCupid - don’t know if that makes a difference to you.
I’m no fan of hamas, but what Israel is doing is just insane.
not everyone in fucking gaza is a fucking terrorist.
I’m from NZ. I was very surprised to learn that our gun laws were quite lax up until the relatively recent mosque shooting in Christchurch - the assault-style weapon the shooter used was quite legal, including the special modifications he had made to make it better for killing people.
in the wake of that tragedy, things have gotten a lot stricter, though I’m afraid I can’t provide specifics - while I love guns, my collections are confined to the virtual, and I really have no interest in owning one IRL.
op hasn’t provided any pictures, they might just be being matter of fact, eschewing false modesty?
he’s not really one to talk… but he’s also, unfortunately, not wrong.
“i love my pet so much, I want them to be with me forever, bereft of everything I loved about them”
I’ve never understood taxidermy. I keep some pictures of one of my dead cats in the wall/as a wallpaper on my phone, and it still is sometimes upsetting to see him and remember that he’s gone.
I used to hate early access - why should we pay to test an unfinished game, when that’s an actual job that people get paid to do?
but I’ve come to recognise that it’s am important avenue for funding for many developers, and tbh, I don’t think any of the early access games I’ve played have felt “incomplete” - perhaps lacking polish, perhaps in need of more content, but that’s true of many full releases, and early access not only gets you these games at a reduced price, it effectively guarantees a large amount of free DLC as the game gets made more complete.
my only real complaint now is sometimes I like early access features which end up getting cut from the finished game.
I can’t say I’m surprised. I was wondering whether I should jump in on day 1, since I played C:S 1 pretty heavily, and want to support the devs, but this definitely means I’ll be waiting at least a few patches.
I don’t know about what they’ve done, but some of the lyrics in songs by The Offspring are pretty questionable.
“I wish I could fix you… and make you how I want you”
or there’s an entire song called “she’s got issues” - which is a fucking jam - where the singer is complaining about how his abused girlfriend thinks SHE’S the victim when HE’S the one who has to put up with her.
not the greatest look.
you don’t want to start. trust me on this.
I wonder if the verb Google will stay with us when its origin is lost in history
I’ve seen lots of people who say they’re from China, but they all look just like Japanese people, can I really just take them at their word?
well, I mean, it’s no skin off my neck either way. I have no problem with being he/him, but I certainly wouldn’t be offended be xe/xem (or for that matter she/her 😅 which was a mistake at least one person made during the mask mandate, when my beard wasn’t so visible)
I’d just like to do what I can to make life easier for those who are faced with more everyday difficulties than I am, especially when it costs me so little.
I’m not the op, but like them im a cishet male. is it useful (to the movement, to non cishet, to LGBTQ+ people in general) to adopt pronouns other than what would be expected, perhaps to normalise them in much the same way that “partner” has been?
or would that generally be regarded as, well, something akin to cultural appropriation? or as malicious adoption, like “i identify as an attack helicopter”?
Jung’s work is too derivative. If you want to be taken seriously, coach it in terms of Freud’s theories.
