I very much agree. It is held up as this wonderful parable of how you should live. It’s the sort of thing that the powerful use to take advantage and abuse the weak.
This kind of puerile shit is bad for children and is just like a lot of the Jesus crap that gets pounded into kids.

He sounds like a pretty awesome dude. Thanks for sharing. Also sounds like he has you pretty well trained, he gets to ride and sniff.
We don’t have a small dog right now, our elderly Chihuahua reached the end a couple years ago and my wife is still raw.

I never really figured out you had to drive as fast as possible and that the fuel level was actually a countdown timer. I was crazy about the cartoon and remember being so disappointed with the game.

That’s really funny to me. What was his name and what was he like?

What cheap woods are the most impact resistant for splintering and splitting?
What is the best way to cure wood to prevent splitting without a kiln? Slap a heavy coat of latex paint on a log/burl/root and let it sit 6mo/year?
What are the most machinable hardwoods? (In particular as regards tearout, warping, and tolerance of thin sections)
In your opinion, what is an available underappreciated or interesting wood to work?

Are you actually a wood scientist; and, if so, can I pick your brain?
Nice saw, BTW!

I’ve always heard this. Helped with pit on a friend’s dad’s drag car when I was a kid. It makes sense, but I’ve never looked into how large of an effect it actually is.

This right here.
I’ve recently been seeing a lot more of what I’ve heard called Blue Anon. I am seeing it get argued against. Shit could get real ugly if it takes hold.
I’m having to repeatedly remind my family to check sources, think critically, and not jump to conclusions.
It’s imperative we remain skeptical and analytical.

I’ve always heard: Respect is given, not earned. Trust is earned and easy to lose. Don’t confuse politeness with respect.

Alcove in blue. It didn’t extend into her intestines or anything, it was just a small pocket in the back wall.
- Comment on Like a heart 4 weeks ago:
It was in the back wall of the vagina, a little bit before her cervix.
- Comment on Like a heart 4 weeks ago:
I actually dated a girl who had a chambered pussy. She was born with mild spina bifida, and there was a scar on her tailbone.
Anyhow, she loved doggy style. I’d get going good and then pop the head of my dick into the alcove, she’d cum her brains out.
Fun times.
- Comment on Cory Doctorow New Book: Enshitification 5 weeks ago:
His ideas are fantastic. Execution and characterization are spotty. Been a while since I read anything of his, but IIRC, he has a tendency to dip into surrealism or absurdity that feels cringey instead of his artistic target.
In some ways, it’s similar to a lot of Golden Era SF. You read it for the ideas, not the story.
I do have a favorable opinion of him and his work. I’d really enjoy Doctorow being paired with a traditional fiction author and both being rode herd by a hardass SF editor.
- Comment on 9,000 years ago. Wonder if even way back then it was referred to as doggy 5 weeks ago:
The Posterior Fornix can be stimulated during doggy style. (Anterior Fornix in missionary.) They are similar to the g-spot, with some people preferring fornix orgasm to g-spot or clitoral stimulation. You aim above the cervix with the tip of your dick or fingers and stretch that area.
This depends on the anatomy of both partners. It’s also a skill that needs to be trained. However, if you can make it work, and the recipient is sensitive to it: fireworks! Like, grunting, moaning, and prayers from a bad porno level of good.

Dated a girl with a BMW and the turn signal was real fucky. Didn’t click right, had no feel. You had to look at the dash to even see if it was on.

You’re trying to chew on the wrong people. No one here is defending anything. Context is being provided.
Organized religion is mostly a poison, especially the fundamentalist version. Also, I get the rage. That shit ate my family.
That being said, I think it’s important to be as accurate as possible in our criticism. Lot’s daughters were offered for gang rape as his visitors were male aspect angels. Warped perspective given modern views. It’s about the duty to visitors and the evil of Sodom. I don’t know the historicity of Sodom and Gomorrah, but the story is almost certainly mostly fictional.
What’s really fucked up is trying to apply Bronze Age morality to the current age and cramming it down children’s throats.
You’re so angry about this shit, but, maybe you should make sure you’re directing that anger at appropriate targets.
- Comment on Now I finally get it 1 month ago:
You’re nine kinds of warped around the axle about this and being pretty nasty to someone who seems to be chill.
Also, as an agnostic atheist raised in some ugly fundamentalism: you’re applying modern views that are out of context to the period. Women and children were basically property. A similar modern view would be towards livestock.

Don’t get me wrong, I’m all about informed consent. (Active in the BDSM community.) I’ve negotiated a lot of sex. However, some things, like a first kiss, I prefer to communicate without talking. Most functional adults should be able to negotiate a kiss without saying a word. Especially if you’re on a real date. You just have to ease into it.
Hell yeah. I still love the trade. Did management and consulting but have found I’m not happy if I’m not working with my hands. Working with my hands includes modelling and programming.

Lemmy sometimes. It’s like a basic human thing. Someone gives you the look, you get closer, they get closer, you gently touch lips and then go from there. Some of this functions at the level of biology. You can actually see the other’s pupils dilate. We’re not talking random heavy tounge kissing and groping or negotiating kinky sex.

Damn skippy! Your old man is taking care of you, even if the delivery was rough.
If your hobbies/pastime are mostly gaming, don’t talk about it much other than a casual mention. Do talk about books, if you read and she’s receptive. Assuming US, try and stay away from politics, unless your dad tells you her political orientation; and even then just insult Trump. Talk about pets, animals, hiking/camping/outdoors. Some science talk can be good. Let her lead.
Kiss her when she gives you the look, you’ll know the look. It will make you very nervous. Do it anyways. Go with her when she asks, “you want to get out of here?” Suggest her place if you need to.
When it gets down to the get down, let her lead. Check in and ask if she likes what you’re doing. It’s okay to be inexperienced, she’ll be expecting it and will accept it as long you’re teachable. If you pop early, laugh, make fun of yourself. Very important, say something like, "welp, at least I’m 22, gimme like 15 minutes and we can try again.’

Your old man knows what he’s doing. She’s 27.
Go on the date, try and be cool. Let her do most of the talking. Given the age gap, it probably won’t ever be anything serious.
However, she’s 27. You’re getting laid on the first or second date as long as you don’t turn her off. She’s looking to get lucky.
Cut your fingernails, shave your balls, keep some gum or mints in your pocket. Bring rubbers. Be cool.

After increasingly cussing the TV as the level of stupid rose higher and higher, we made it to the part where magic purple witch spray was used. I paused the TV and my girl and I just looked at each other, we were done.
Also, who the fuck writes in a fucking basement in New Orleans? Not motherfucking Anne Rice. So stupid.
We’re finishing up the second season of Interview with a Vampire. Other than a bad Southern accent in the first season, it’s excellent and super queer. Highly recommend.
