In the telecom rooms at work, often, like multiple times a week. In the boardroom at work. In my cubicle at work after hours while waiting for a delivery.
In the back of my truck in every garage around the building where we worked. In my truck in a Walmart parking lot at lunch time. In my truck parked on a busy street in downtown Ottawa at lunchtime on a weekday.
In a stall in a busy boarding stable while people were coming and going.
In her pool in her backyard in the city in the middle of the day.
In the parking garage at a mall on Christmas eve.
In the public bathroom in an office building while people came and went.
You are reminding me of parking lots, people walking by, knocking on steamed up windows.
Probably the worst, and most regular, was a couch in my parents’ living room. Spooning under a blanket can turn into clandestine sex real quick. All while watching cartoons.
I’m an asexual, so if by that you mean classic, two-way bodily mingling, then nowhere besides my dreams, and I’m not even sure about that. I’m not averse to it, which is a miracle considering past experiences, but I don’t look forward to it either.
As someone on the aphantasia spectrum, I have a weak relationship with dreams as is, but it does happen, and they do feature that, yes. If I am dreaming of something like that, it’s typically for some kind of in-universe agenda, or if I’m dreaming of events resembling the second thing I mentioned above, there’s a snowball’s chance it’s not a nightmare, but none of that has happened recently to my memory, as my piece of dreamland is preoccupied by things I miss.
Ironically, as an asexual who happens to have turn-ons (the term “asexuality” refers to attraction to humans, it can exist as a label even if attracted to non-life), I have actually tried often to build up my feeling of attraction by not indulging myself in the daytime, which in turn I hope would pressure my dream adventures into not being nostalgic. For brief periods, often it works, albeit you might say it’s way more ritualized for me in my dreams.
I am likely asexual as well and I only had a sex related dream maybe once in my lifetime. Never had sex either, although I’m not necessarily totally opposed to eventually trying it.
My man, those “pills” are coming and they won’t be unique usage (like some Genie provides them).
But they wont be as blunt either, it will be rejuvenation of your retina, kidneys, liver, skin (that doesn’t mean you’ll look younger), back muscles, heart, etcetera.
If you have cancer type 352 and we got a “pill” to treat it (a treatment, with a high probability to fix it) will you take it and extend your life by 20 years?
We’re in a biotech revolution, not in a Santa Claus situation.
Check out D&Q the first senessent cell clearance treatment, it’s not that expensive.
Also, governments (except the USA it seems) will help getting everybody in good health, the economic benefits are enormous.
I’m so tired with this nonsense that only the rich will be getting it, it’s not true. Check out all other treatments, who are for the ultra rich only?
If you can reverse aging, will you only sell it to a bunch of billionaires, or to billions of people? Of course you’ll earn more money selling it to basically every human being on the planet.
Same. I would take it now, so I could go back to being 20, but this time I would not fuck up all my joints because I know I’m not actually invulnerable.
You can use an RSS client like Read You and aggregate news sources yourself. Most news sites, as well as blogs and some social media sites support the RSS standard. Chris Titus Tech made a nice video about this: www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y1Ho_RrF_9I
1 problem with standard RSS readers though is that posts are sorted in chronological order so you might miss most popular articles of the day. Can recommend Inoreader, have used it for 8 years and really like it. They cache articles on their own server side so it allows hot/trending section which I assume is based on clicks from other users. You can read your feed also through browser / PC.
I used to use Inoreader, before I switched to self-hosted FreshRSS + fivefilters-full-text-rss-docker. I run both services in a Fedora Server VM on my NAS with Safing Portmaster + SPN for extra privacy. This setup should already hide all ads, but if you want be 100% sure, deploy some DNS filtering solution like Pi-Hole or AdGuard Home so your FreshRSS server won’t even be able to connect to servers that host advertisements. This is the superior way of consuming content on the internet.
Edit: I kinda forgot to mention this, but you can either use the FreshRSS web interface, or connect it to a compatible RSS app like (like the previously mentioned Read You)
Any chance you have any experience with FreshRSS’s web scraping ability for sites without RSS feeds? I’ve been dabbling with RSSBridge lately, but it seems like having this altogether might be a decent idea if I’m going to be mucking around with server-software stuff.
Could be that there is a law against storing data outside of the EU that might pertain to your school situation, so you might have a right violated. Though fighting that is quite a bit of work. You’d want to escalate things with your school first, but in order to do so be knowledgeable on the issue which requires a big time investment and in the end if your school doesn’t care they are probably gonna bet on you not seeking legal recourse. Which is such a ginormous amount of work they could be right depending on the resources you have.
That’s not to say its a battle not worth having, but its quite the battle if the school doesn’t care, because they can just stonewall and its up to you to overcome it.
As an alternative I unfortunately don’t know of any except a self hosted moodle solution which is a hefty amount of work for the school and might be reason enough for them to deflect or stonewall on the issue. So I wouldn’t go into that with them, let them do their own research on alternatives maybe they can come up with something since they have different resources and connections than you do.
Public school in general are place out of time and out place. The majority of people, the princpals do not have a clue about anyting pertaining these fields. Most of the teachers don’t feel the privacy issue as a major problem and often talk to each other and with students via what’s app. It is a mess, a big one. No strategy, no plan whatsoever. Not even the need to learn and become slightly litterate about this matter. what’s look cool and American, siliconish valley is right and felt as modern.
50s. Getting back to one’s 30s you’re still old enough for people to take you seriously, but the creaking bones and exhaustion hasn’t really started creeping in yet.
Ha yeah had that not with a sneeze but i made a mistake by taking a drink from the fridge, and there it went. Dumb thing is i can carry “heavy” stuff and be fine but i look at a sock wrong and my backs out and walk like a duck for a week.
I threw a head high kick in a kung fu tournament and landed weird, it’s never been the same. I probably tore something but I didn’t go to the doctor on account of the fact I’m American, but I manage the pain pretty well with medical marijuana and walking barefoot, at least in the warmer months.
Drunkly got down to it on a very empty train… But someone saw us cause the police were waiting for us at the station. Fortunately there was no cameras where we were, and no corroborating evidence, so we got away with it. But both of us had to go to the station and get questioned… Definte drunken stupidity, and now we’re a bit more circumspect.
I think there’s a certain power dynamic that comes with looking and acting older. If you look the same age or younger than your kids, that power dynamic is most likely going to slowly shift. It’d be like if you’re in your 40s working for a guy who looks like he’s in his 20s. While possible, I imagine it’d be a challenging arrangement. Not to mention how your kids would feel about your decision as a parent to take an age reversal pill.
Out-of-sync not only in lifestyle but you’d now be young enough to possibly outlive your loved ones. Thats a special hell, I’d imagine, burying your parents, wife, and children all because you took a pill to make you younger.
