How do you guys read threads? Do you go top-to-bottom? Bottom-to-top? Do you follow a single chain of replies to its conclusion, read all the replies to a post before reading any of the replies to those replies? Just read posts in the order they were posted and reference the quoted post number to keep track?
No. 2287046
>>2287043Why are you making me analyze this.
But I read from top to bottom sometimes and sometimes I read from bottom to top, depends on how old is the thread. But also sometimes a reply catches my attention and then I follow the chain of replies.

>>2287132If they're married or have a serious relationship and you have their address, write out a love letter to them. Make sure that you write it in a way that's different enough from your own handwriting. In the letter, refer to previous dates that you went on with them, while avoiding specific dates or times ("I had so much fun with you last time we were together, I can still feel your lips against mine," etc.). Put the letter in an envelope addressed to the moid you want to take revenge on, but under his name write something like "sexiest man alive" or some other flirty thing. Make sure you don't add a return address to the envelope. Apply red lipstick, and kiss the outside of the envelope so that the stain of your lips is there. After you kiss it, take a cotton swab and lightly brush the mark so that it's a bit "blurry" (your lip print is unique like your finger print, so you want to blur out the creases and groves so it can't be traced back to you). Pop the envelope in an outgoing mail box: don't go to the post office with it. I did this twice before and both times it ruined their relationships. Sometimes you have to send more than one letter, since the goal is for their spouse or girlfriend to find the letter and to read it.

i can’t decide my stance on yaoi / bl. more specifically, i can’t decide what i feel towards women, especially SSA women, who enjoy yaoi. on the one hand, i think it’s not inherently bad or anything, even though certain shippers can be annoying or cringe. if a woman is happy, reading content made for women from another woman, then sure, i am happy too. but on the other hand… how is it different from just consuming porn? is fiction ≠ reality? i genuinely don’t understand, not trying to start a fight or anything. genuinely curios, how is it different from males reading hentai for example?
No. 2287348
>>2287327>how is it different from males reading hentai for example?Do women commit %98 of all sexual crimes? No. See how it's different for women to engage in their lust and it's not
problematic because we're simply not rapeapes or pedos?
No. 2287349
>>2287327it is just as harmful as pornography imho. it rewires the brain to be turned on by things that may be harmful for the person seeing it, such as depictions of violence, sexual assault, ~bdsm~ bullshit, and so on, which a lot of yaoi content tends to be saturated of. porn also makes people, especially very young ones, very confused on how they look at other people, and it's why you see scrotes becoming sexually violent after viewing porn, and women thinking that they're asexual or are a certain sexual orientation but they're really not in the end. back in the olden days of the 2000s, majority of yuri stuff was unrelatable to the female audience and more geared towards males instead, so yaoi started taking the reign in popular media consumption. that said, there is a slow increase of very good gl stuff out there, especially made from korean artists.

I also think written/drawn porn is different than filmed porn. I've read a lot of accounts from porn actresses where they were abused by costars or directors, but 0 from fictional yaoi men because they are not real. Hope this helps.

No. 2287419
>>2287387You didn't do anything wrong. There are a lot of dorks who come to this site to start infights because they don't like fujoshis. One of the main arguments that sets off infighting is whether or not fujoshis can be lesbians, because yaoi is two men having sex.
It is the responsibility of anons to not infight or take bait, and to report infighting or bait posts. You don't need to apologize for using threads correctly, just ignore any obvious infighting and know when to step away from a thread.

No. 2287433
>>2287423You're right, I just feel I should try and help earnest autists integrate sometimes since nobody responds to questions in /meta/ anymore and admin is so absent. It would be easier for them to integrate if moderation was consistent, but I see so many anons left unbanned. I've even reported alogging and nothing has been done. So it seems no newfags will be able to understand what infighting or bait is, and all the most aggressive anons being left unchecked will lead to the newfags eventually get chased off the site. But this is counterproductive because we need a steady influx of newfags to sustain the site population.
I don't know, maybe anons are right and the farmhands are trying to slowly kill the site.
No. 2287439
>>2287433Yeah, I get what you mean, but you have to remember that it's not our job to help newfags integrate. It's their responsibility to lurk, and it's the farmhands responsibility to moderate. Unfortunately, everyone has begun to shirk their responsibilities. Even as we're having this conversation between you and I, retards are flinging shit around us for no discernible reason. This site has gone to the dogs because farmhands refuse to do the jobs that they signed up for, but we're all supposed to be peachy keen about it. It's frustrating for everyone.
>the farmhands are trying to slowly kill the site.If you check out the LC hate thread on CC, something interested was posted there about this.
No. 2287444
>>2287439Truly, and I almost gave in to asking them to stop kek. It's so frustrating because I really enjoy the conversations I have with anons but everything is constantly derailed with retarded spergouts and vendettaposting. Somebody mentioned the site was so different when you look at old threads, and I do miss that degree of politeness and unity. Now modern socmed antagonism has started permeating everything and it filters out the more stable anons. It really sucks.
I remember when "cerbmin" first took over and opened farmhand apps, a lot of anons were reporting back that they were not contacted at all, despite admin saying they did not have enough moderators. But I remember looking at the form and didn't see anything that should have been filtering so hard.
Thanks for the heads up about the thread btw, I will check it out.
No. 2287454
>>2287444Yeah, even just comparing 2024 to 2023 LC you can see how much its slipped. I knew it was starting to get bad when we were denied the chance to have town halls. It's really just too bad because it feels like the latest admin is squandering the site's potential. The problems with LC are really easy to solve, but no matter how many times they're pointed out, we're met with silence.
>Thanks for the heads up about the thread btw, I will check it out.Yeah, there's no point in talking about it on LC because the conversation will always just get derailed by shitflingers. CC has its issues, but the LC Hate thread is important because it's a place where we can honestly discuss the issues that we're having without being met with decorative red letters on the bottom of our posts.

>>2287457>every time we bunk the same nonnas that I talk to here just magically become nice?The thing is, it's not the same anons. The bunker threads are always really chill at first because it's only the anons that genuinely care about the site and community that know about the bunkers and seek them out. The people that use this site to bait, fling shit, infight, etc., they aren't the ones that know about the bunkers. It's why for the first few days of the last long outage, the CC bunker threads were so friendly and fun, because none of those retards knew about it yet. Then after a few days they started showing up, out of desperation that they had been unable to troll for so long, but because the mods on CC don't play around with bait, they weren't able to derail the bunkers with their bullshit. You're 100% right when you say that the farmhands enable the worst posters on here to continue to in their retardation.
>>2287462Try to go back through the threads and read them. There's a lot of information posted about Cerbmin and the moderation team that is usually censored and deleted here. Not everything posted in those threads is interesting, and there's a bit of bullshit, but it's easy enough to discern which ones are important.

I remember there being a Koala exhibit I think cause they’re kinda rare to see in the bush, but yeah I don’t think there were any Roos.
There was a whole smaller place that did have all spiders and lizards and snakes and stuff though, went there on a school trip.

>>2288536Long term effects of extraneous estrogen in men is not fully known or studied. Because until recently men had no desire to take these drugs. Many report feelings of “euphoria” initially but it inevitably leads to a crash. Moob growth, ED, increased risk of blood clots and breast cancer. The worst outcome I have heard is a man having a stroke due to the blood clots that HRT caused. Otherwise the worst outcome for them is that it does absolutely nothing at all.
Keep in mind when you read things like picrel or men complaining about their moobs hurting that it’s just an act they play up as part of their fetish. And even though they are at an increase risk for developing breast cancer, it is still not comparable to the risk women have for the same disease.

>>2288987>t. someone who isn’t anorexicSo what about the lesbians that are anorexic? They’re doing it for men too? I just think it’s so bizarre that for this mental illness specifically people are obsessed with calling them pick-mes. Wtf? If anything there are more anorexics who want to desex themselves and not be seen as sexual. Both cannot be true at the same time. You don’t aspire to a BMI of 12 to be attractive to men you retard. I fucking hate how people love to make shit up about anorexics. The “”anorexic”” (self-proclaimed) attention-seeking cows are not representative just like how the autistic cows are not representative of autistic people.
>2010s when in 2009 Kate Moss did her most famous line that's lasted till nowLiterally no one knows that including me kek. That’s not exactly what people think of when we think 2010s beauty standards.
I’m saying this as a formerly anorexic person, who has been in ED spaces before anorexia started to become trendy on TikTok recently, anorexia is about control, and when it’s to do with vanity it’s almost always about how clothes fit or certain subcultures. People who are sexually abused often resort to restriction to make themselves
less sexually attractive and proclaiming the opposite and shaming them for being pick-mes is absurd. BMI 20 coquette girlies who listen to Lana Del Ray are not anorexic even though they say they are just like the zoomers who claim they have ADHD or Cluster B aren’t, so why are you feeding into their fantasy? It’s the people who are getting hospitalised who are. And it’s disturbing to me how people love to shit on anorexic people specifically, then turn around and say they have it easier than fat people/people with binge eating disorder. Yeah right. Women have unnecessary vitriol towards you by default for some reason and men either shame you for your body or see you as a freaky fetish.

>BMI 20 coquette girlies who listen to Lana Del Ray are not anorexic even though they say they are just like the zoomers who claim they have ADHD or Cluster B aren’t, so why are you feeding into their fantasy? the only person i knew irl who was pro ana was exactly this person and she picked up the habit after years of other attention seeking posting online. this is why i am kind of bitter about them changing the bmi requirements, why do we have to treat girls like that that don’t even have an underweight bmi like they have the psychology of someone who was sexually traumatized and avoidant and ACTUALLY QUIETLY DYING. denial about having an eating disorder and trying to hide my eating habits was literally as significant a part of my diagnosis as being under a bmi of 14 and losing my period longer than three months.

victims. the you’re not dolores, you’re humbert post rings so true. they don’t have actual anorexia. i would love to see a woman like that with an actual bmi below 14.

>>2291259I don't believe in "acting masculine". I think that women will attempt to behave like men, but there is no inherent masculinism or femininity when a woman performs certain actions. For example, I don't believe programming or weight lifting or construction to be "male behaviors". I think those hobbies or professions can be male
dominated.
When someone says gender non-conforming, I understand this to be a visual/presentation related description. A woman who knits, cooks, tradwifes, whatever people consider to be excessively female will still be gender non-conforming if she cuts her hair very short, wears no makeup, and dresses like a butch. Does this make sense? Conversely, a loud mouthed woman who is aggressive and gets into physical fights would NOT be considered gnc if she is dressed in clubwear and heels.
And it's not quite "this one thing = gender non-conforming". For instance, there are republican women with very typical short hairstyles who are not gnc. You mention a strong "protector" woman who is strong and quite tough. I fit your description when I wear a dress, but I shave my head and wear no makeup, so I'm instantly gnc to others despite wearing the dress.
Did I answer your question or is there something else I am still missing/did not cover? Other anons will probably have a different opinion than me, of course.

With the gnc thing, I think it is not useful as a general category, so much as a way to discuss social dynamics. There's another thread getting overrun with infighting right now over anons who are attracted to "gnc" women. Other anons are saying being attracted to certain "gnc" traits is the same as being attracted to men, but I think "gnc" can't really apply to sexual preference, if that makes sense? Many traits exist at an intersection, and I think "gnc" as a whole should be used to discuss society forcing regressive roles onto people.

>>2291402nona, thanks for being so intelligent with your responses

No. 2291450
>>2291405I can certainly try. Let me know if anything I say is confusing, please.
In terms of "gnc" we were listing individual traits earlier such as not wearing makeup or having short hair, or not wearing dresses. But even signifiers like this exist along a spectrum. I would never call Hillary Clinton gnc, but there are right wing aligned people who I consider very extreme who would say she is extremely mannish. Consider when a woman wears "natural face" makeup and moids are cooming over her natural, no makeup face. But when a woman who is butch and not in a dress wears the same style of makeup, the makeup does not save her from being "gnc". Another example can be Anok Yai who many people see as mannish for modeling suits with her slim figure and short hair, or Serena Williams who was widely considered mannish for her muscles. I remember even lesbians were saying any woman who found Serena Williams attractive was "definitely straight"! But to me, both are very attractive and unmistakably women. Even in other non-American cultures, long hair on men and short hair on women are not considered "gender non-conforming". So really "gnc" depends entirely on whose perspective you are looking at the person from. This is useful to us because we can say "the average American male considers a woman gnc if she does not want to be pregnant and do full face makeup every morning and do her nails every weekend and maintain elegant waist length hair. The average American male is retarded."
The annoying idiot shitting up the thread with low effort aggressive bait brought up a woman "wearing frilly pink dresses" at a construction site. This is obviously stupid and a strawman, but this shows that even the same woman could be considered "gnc" in some situations just by wearing worksafe clothing and pinning her hair back at her job, but considered extremely feminine in situations outside of it. It's funny, does "GNC" apply at home when I am naked?
That's why I think it is useful when talking about the way others perceive women in relation to the gender roles expected of them. But you also have to define the demographic you are talking about, otherwise you descend into retarded troonerism like
>>2291398 mentioned. Trannies love "gnc" as a stupid gotcha to convince people that what they are doing is perfectly normal. "See how even CIS people are gender nonconforming? Sex is a lie because women can wear pants!" It's a pathetic cope. Yes, men can wear dresses if they want, but that doesn't make him a woman and never will.
>>2291388I hope this answers your questions as well? Let me know. Or were you asking for examples of what can be considered gender non-conforming traits for men? I can try to list some of these out as well.

No. 2291535
>>2291477This is much easier because males are extremely insecure. Almost anything can threaten their masculinity. If something would get a man called a faggot, then you can consider it a signifier of "gnc". So: "long" hair, wearing colors that are not neutral, any makeup (note how they must call it "guyliner"), any hobbies that are not to do with computers or aggression, tight fitting clothes, hygiene, flowers, jewelry, expressions of affection. The list goes on forever and ever.
This is also why anon mentioned this way lays troonery. Compare trends in male fashion before the modern era and the etymology of the word "dandy". They constantly move the goalposts in order to maintain a sense of superiority over each other, lest they are found to be metaphysically sucking dick. This is why some men will go so far as to not wipe their asses for fear that any interaction within the vicinity of their own anus is the equivalent of shoving a vibrator up their ass. There is a reason some anons believe all men are faggots to a degree, because they are always posturing for other men.
Consider reading up on the "metrosexual" trend, which will enlighten you to the depths of male mental illness in their quest to avoid being seen as "womanly".

Reposting from /g/ because advice thread is slow:
Is it worth it to make a separate blog or sideblog specifically for my art? (I know other blogs just add "-art" to the end of their main) I planned on making one and reblogging to my fandom sideblogs, but will posting art directly to my main be easier and/or get more recognition?
It's filled with random posts and vents right now but I have some small funny engagement, I want to post cute fanart but also want to draw nsfw of my husbando, is tagging everything appropriately and putting nsfw under a read more alright?

>>2293398NTA but plenty of tp followed by baby wipes followed by blasting with the handheld showerhead followed by bar soap. I should be clean before the soap gets anywhere near me, so theoretically a rag or something would be fine. But I use a loofah mainly for limbs and torso because it covers more surface area, and bar soap for pits and bits because it's more precise, less rough on my skin, and I feel like soap stays clean more easily than the loofah, since lathering removes the top layer entirely.
Anyway arguments about hygiene are frustrating because calling someone dirty is so below the belt that everyone gets aggro over it. It always devolves into one side claiming others don't do enough to be clean, then the other side saying you must be extra dirty if you need to do more to be clean. If you aren't getting sick, have no ph or skin issues, and don't have any reason to think other people find you smelly or gross, it's probably fine.
No. 2293552
>>2293235Cool! So you should absolutely get some hobbies. It can be hard to "get into" something if you weren't "taught" how to, but you can do it. Probably the biggest obstacle will be discipline, but you can work on that.
The main thing is setting time aside for whatever you're doing. You can start with an hour a day. If you find you aren't delivering on that hour, you can schedule it (for example, one hour at 2pm, one hour after breakfast, etc).
The next step is to actually DO the hobby. I assume you're asking questions here because you aren't sure what to do. You can go about this in two ways: identify something you want to produce, or find an activity you enjoy doing. If you're in the Sarah Spaceman thread and think "why does she suck so bad? She clearly knows sewing basics, if only she tried a little harder or worked to improve" look up sewing basics and tutorials! If you see a cute granny square heart sweater on etsy, look up how to crochet. If you're watching a YouTube video and like their outro art, you can start learning to draw. Alternatively, you can do an activity because it is fun. I mostly play guitar because it is physically fun for me to do, not because I necessarily want to be a songwriter. Many people don't start blogs to become professional writers, but because writing your thoughts down about the things you're going through can be cathartic or satisfying. And the same can be said for the anons in the smallweb thread! A lot of them just enjoy working with html and experimenting with their pages/sites.
There are plenty of resources out there for beginners and hobbies in general. There are a lot of good youtube tutorials for casting on when knitting and signing up for ravelry is always a great idea. If you read the op for the Art Salt thread in /ot/, they link resources for learning how to draw. There is a yarn arts thread and a sewing thread in /g/ that you can look at to see what other anons are doing. And there are lots of hobbies I haven't covered, like scrapbooking, photography, keyboards, server hosting, tatting, beading, miniatures. The list goes on! Let me know if you have any other questions and I can do my best to answer them. Or if you need advice for other related isses you didn't mention.
Quick aside, I do not and will never recommend hiking as a "beginner" hobby. This is one of the most common things I see on lists of activities, and I really wish people would stop listing it. I'm not talking about walking, walking around your neighborhood, city, or in parks is great. I am talking about hiking in the wilderness. So many people do not know basic wilderness safety, and this is not their fault, but it makes the activity so much more dangerous. Yes, you should never approach wildlife. But I'm also talking about safety like never ever leaving the hiking trail. So many people are found only feet away from the trail and it is a horrible tragedy every time. Many people don't know the best thing you can do when lost in the woods is to STOP MOVING so rescuers can actually find you. If you do want to hike or spend time in the woods, then I urge you to take safety and training seminars and follow their instructions. The woods can be fun and really beautiful, but they are literally the wilderness and can get you killed much more easily than people think.

I wish mods would ban aggro losers and people who respond in kind.
I agree, so long as someone doesn't smell and uses soap they're probably fine. I do much the same as you, except I apply liquid soap onto my hand or loofah (I do not use a loofah between my legs.) and scrub. Don't you feel a weird film left on your skin after using soap bars? That's why I don't use them. Maybe it's just me?
The bait about letting water run over your feet is funny to me because you clearly said high pressure water. If they came from a country with bidets, then they would know the difference and not have asked this question. A lot of people who use toilet paper don't realize debris is always left behind even if you can't see it, that's why it's important for us to shower often even if we don't wash our hair.

No. 2293664
>>2293641Oh, okay! So I would ask for what your hobbies are so I could get more specific, but another two ways are logging and planning.
You can log what you're doing in order to keep track and help your motivation. I made a knitting "log" where I track my knitting projects and list details out (like which size needles I was using…) so it's easy to remember and go back to them without starting over. And for the more complicated ones, I attach a file where I've been writing down my progress or what I'm doing (here's the knitting pattern, here is how many rows in the sleeve I am, here's the video I used to make buttonholes…)
By "planning", I mean plan your improvement. So identify areas you want to improve on and then make a plan to get better, and then break that plan down into even smaller steps so it doesn't feel overwhelming. Like if I wanted to improve my embroidery, I'd identify needing to improve my drawing skills, and then I'd need to identify why what I draw isn't coming out the way I want, and focus in on that.
Honestly, the most straightforward answer is to spend more time on your hobbies. If you find yourself turning away from them, they may not be stimulating enough on their own. For example, some people watch tv while they crochet, but I can't so that, so I listen to a podcast instead. Or try a new hobby!
Was any of this helpful?
Respectfully, it also sounds like you may have self-esteem issues? I know what it's like to want to spend a lot of time with someone to the point where it feels embarrassing, but you mentioned work and school. So unless you're taking the bare minimum of classes and shifts, it seems like maybe you already spend a lot of time doing other things? I don't know the specifics of your situation obviously, and you would know best if you were actually being excessively needy. But it is healthy to want to be around people, so I would look into why you feel as though you're being clingy. Maybe instead of trying to be
away from people, you spread your attention over multiple friends so the single friend doesn't feel overwhelmed, if that is the problem in the first place. You will never be rid of your need for companionship, and trying to will only harm you in the long run.

>>2293664Yes, it was very helpful, thank you nona. I haven't really been planning my hobbies as much as I plan for school or routines but I am very fond of lists and schedules and such so maybe it'll help me. I specifically enjoy drawing, painting, reading, creative writing and hope to also get into scrapbook journaling next year if that helps. The rest of my hobbies seem to be outdoors and it's too cold for them.
>self esteem issuesYeah, I'm trying to work on it and not to vent here but lately I feel like I sometimes am too desiring of attention from this one friend of mine to the point they have joked about me being needy and there's an ongoing thing about me being their little puppy.
>>2293669I mean I enjoy my hobbies a lot, I have been drawing and coding all day, for example. It's just that eventually I guess my desires for projects or stuff relating to the hobbies are really ambitious and the amount of work weighs on me when I start and I become distressed because I really still want to do that project but it takes me multiple days and I'm impatient (like a long animation, for instance) I want to like my hobby like other people like their hobbies, to where they go all in and create so much, like there's this one artist I know who made figures of their characters for example.

>>2293777That really sucks, I'm sorry to hear it, nona. I wouldn't put so much weight on virginity if I were you. Yes, first times can be special and memorable, like the first time you went ice skating or camping. But it was one instance of sex and you will have positive experiences with other people in the future.
On the one hand I understand why it can be important to women, but I also feel like giving it so much weight is giving in to moid insistence on virginity being something special and irreplaceable. I don't know, my mom obviously isn't a virgin but it doesn't affect the way I think of her.
Sorry I can't be more helpful, nonna. I hope you feel better soon and find a new boyfriend who treats you well and is better in every way. I guess maybe we should be glad he revealed his true colors now instead of later.

Is it an overreaction to feel wary and to think it's weird that people with oral herpes are…okay with giving it to their own kids? Don't babies get sent to the hospital because of oral herpes infections? Why do people with herpes keep saying, "oh, but it's rare of babies to get that sick with herpes. They'll be fine"? Or this idea that it's not fucked up just because the kid is contracting it from a parent? I'm aware that most people in this world have some form of herpes, but is it normal to still find it weird that people are okay with kids getting it too?

>>2295386Save up your period blood, you'll need about 10-15mL. Next, get a pair of his underwear. The underwear has to have been worn by him without having had been washed before you take it. Wrap a red string around his underwear for however many months you've known him, so for example: if you were introduced to him in October and it's December now, you'd wrap the string around his underwear 3 times. Tie the string tightly so that the knot can't be undone easily. Put his underwear in a glass jar, and pour your blood into the jar. Make sure that the blood is soaked into the fabric of his underwear. Put the lid of the glass jar on, and on top of the lid light a long candle made of red wax. Let the candle burn completely, so that the red wax has covered the seal and the lid can't be opened without breaking the wax. Then, bury the jar in a place that he is often nearby, like the yard of his house, or nearby his place of work. It will keep him tied to you for as long as he's around that jar. If he should move away, or be far from the jar for long, it will stop working, so you must choose a good spot for it to be buried. If the jar is disturbed or broken, it will stop working, so make sure you dig a deep enough hole that it won't be found.

Yes, what you are describing does not sound like avoidant personality disorder, because as far as I understand those people are still pants shitting while actively in a social situation. Either you are not being fully honest about your symptoms, or the psych may have been mistaken and you should see about reevaluation with a different doctor.

Any nonnas here who barely wash their hair?
I was researching historical hair care and decided to try to lengthen the time between hair washes as much as possible. I have curly hair so before that I'd wash my hair every 6-7 days, with 3-4 days of good hair days in there. I also suffer from sebhorreic dermatitis my entire life, and after 6 days my scalp is full of crusts that itch like mad, so I'm almost constantly scratching my scalp and wounding the skin.
Well I stopped washing my hair and started brushing it every day instead. Something about distributing the scalp oils along the length. This allowed me to go around 9 days without washing my hair, and fixed my dry ends problem. Except that I've been sick for a couple of weeks and I just realized that I don't remember the last time I washed my hair anymore. It must have been over two weeks ago. Yet my scalp doesn't itch at all, and doesn't feel dirty? My ends are a bit oily, but nothing too serious. What is even going on?

It's another tactic on their part. Amongst the misogynistic men it's very in right now to paint women as promiscuous and hypergamous (which is actually more true of males), so in turn, they paint themselves as those le wholesome guys who just want a loving wife, that's all.
It wouldn't fool anyone, of course, as we know that men will cheat given thr possibility.
It also has to do with them being disillusioned with "whores", so they imagine this dream scenary of their perfect trad wife. They don't think long-term (like actually being loyal and committed and raising kids), it's the idea of a married woman that is appealing. Kinda like a fetish. Same with them wanting kids. It's less a desire to have kids and more a twist on breeding kink. If any man says he wants a family, it's probably a fetish to him. A fetish of having a submissive woman and breeding her. The family life is just part of that sexual fantasy.

If it's that serious, you would make it official instead of letting your "wife" stay being what's technically a girlfriend, and letting your own children be bastards. If she's your wife instead of a girlfriend, her right to see you in the hospital can be protected by the law if the rules are strict.

The people who are truly aroused by their own family members (and not just attention whoring about it on the internet) are typically in a dysfunctional family and every time I've heard of it, they were molested. I'm sure there are exceptions, but typically there was sexual abuse involved.

>>2301952I'm also lactose intolerant and already ate such little meat that I ended up going vegan years ago.
I use avocado and olive oil instead of butter. I use an oat milk that has only three ingredients (oats + water + salt). Picrel is my fave though it's pricey. Oatly has one that's good, too. Some people swear by soy and almond, but I haven't found one I like yet. Just make sure to avoid any that have a ton of additives and oils.
Personally, I don't eat a lot of imitation cheese, ice cream, or other dairy products because they're full of seed oils and other crap. I'll make my own cheese sauces using nuts and banana nice cream at home (you'll need a good blender for that). When I do indulge, I like Bandit cheeses if you can find them (they're US-based). They're as close to the real deal as you can get.
I'm not sure if you're trying to go vegan or just get help with GI issues, so I won't sperg out on all the other non-meat alternatives. This is by far the easiest time to find good non-dairy options!

Or they see that a person is upset, but they don't understand why or how it happened and can't relate. However if you tell the autist "I'm upset because of this and that reason" they're able to show sympathy by going "oh I had no idea, that really sucks, sorry you have to deal with that".
A person who has empathy but lacks sympathy would react to you saying "my beloved pet died last night, I'm devastated" by getting sad and crying as if it was their pet who died, taking the day off work to recover while offering no or little support to you but instead taking it personally. It's more emotionally driven.
Of course most people are a mix, but you can lean more towards one or the other and it's good to know which way you tend to lean. Therapists should be proficient in showing sympathy rather than have too much empathy, you don't want them to burst out crying from sadness when telling your tragic life story. You instead want them to be able to recognize your struggle and support you through it with sympathy and understanding.

>>2304097You are responsible for yourself, if someone uses a medical term insultingly and you suffer medical issue it’s on you to be offended or not. If someone’s too retarded to understand I can accept the responsibility of not
triggering someone with a child’s mind into feeling bad but it’s on their tard wrangler to contain them from out and out violence, not mine to hold my tongue.
Like you said, new words will crop up regardless of what we do. The answer is in handling our own emotional responses like adults, why would anyone want to give some rando that level of control over their day? And if the social convention shifts and words fall out of fashion because they become offputting, that’s fine. I’ll accept people thinking I’m a jerk for casually using retarded because again, I’m an adult and am responsible for my words/actions/feelings. Will I stop because it might offend someone not present? No! That said I’m not going to run around calling people who are retarded retarded as an insult or downsies retarded, that’d be retarded of me.

>>2304132>>2304128Adding to that, an internally underdeveloped and immature person will automatically become hostile towards anyone whose behavior makes them question their own values and standards, because they integrate these behaviors and appearances into their ego and feel them as part of themselves, something that defines them and often that gives them value rather than an action they are taking. A person who makes them question something they've built their identity on is seen as potentially damaging. Some people even literally feel like they are going to die when their ideas about themselves are put into too much question or proven not real, or they go into hardcore denial. You can see this everywhere, not just in this specific group of women. Please now keep in mind that a lot of people don't even reach emotional maturity in their lifetimes and often people in their 60s are very underdeveloped.

>>2304130Puzzles, highly recommend. Set one up somewhere out of the way and just do it whenever you’re bored.
Memory games, start with 3x3 and time yourself. As you become consistent or bored increase the amount of cards. You can probably even find an app for this.
Poetry, make a little notebook to keep on you and write. You just want to rhyme and spell, encourage those centers of your brain.
Conversation. If you’ve got people in your life just hold convos, you can use your little notebook for this too. Take notes after the convo to see how much you can recall.
Practice recall. Just practice remember what you did that day, conversations you had. Use you’re little notebook to jot things down. Recall positive things frequently to encourage your brain to view remembering things as a positive experience.

>>2304173You’re not “falling off”, you’re failing to and/or forgetting. I found half the challenge of sticking to a routine was in not treating it like this do or didn’t do thing when in reality it’s more like a reverse recovering addict.
The goal is to just keep doing the habit again once you remember you were trying to get in the habit. You want to practice saying to yourself “I’ll do it now”, instead of “I’ll do it later”. Like the reverse of an addict.
Once you learn to cajole yourself into the habit you can start fitting the habit into your day, make it even more likely to happen by associating it with good things/thoughts. You have a sip of water; “that was so refreshing, I love this, I’m so glad I can drink water whenever I want”. You’re brain will eventually start picking up what you’re putting down and you’ll find yourself wanting to do it.

>>2304173You could fill up a big water bottle and generally keep it near you, so that you're reminded of your new habit every time you happen to glance at it.
I keep a post-it note on my bathroom mirror for good habits when brushing teeth (brush the tops, sides, gums area, use floss and mouthwash).

>>2304180it'll take a while to get used to but thank you for laying it out like this, especially with the tip about associating the tasks with the positive rather than the negative. i think this might help a ton since i usually view these rather simple things as a chore

Has anyone here gotten good results from an internet group meetup, like ones based around hobbies or just a general ideology/"vibe"? As in, have you had any positive experiences with them, like a new friend, a genuinely good time or a new interest/book, interesting conversation, etc.? Or is it the type of thing you should never do even if you're quite lonely?
No. 2304272
>>2304244I’ve definitely had good results with Meetup, in fact I think most of my current friend group can be traced back to groups around our hobbies. It’s very hit or miss though because it all depends on the organizer of the group, not the app itself.
I would never go to a meet up of people from an imageboard or Discord or something like that though, simply because they’re more anonymous and there’s no way to quickly glance at the attendees to get a feel for what kind of people are going to show up.

>>2304310I used to meet up with an anime fan group as a teen, and have met art and gaming groups as an adult.
Some of the anime people were cringe and weeby as all hell, but I made some friends I still know to this day and they all grew out of the cringe when we stopped being teens, we're just casual occasional anime enjoyers now. I have seen a few of the people who were already adults at the time and they're still the same cringe weebs tho kek
The gaming group is focused around a certain game/francaise and has been full of well-adjusted adults from the start so I really enjoy hanging out with them. They're just the right amount of nerdy and fun. Art groups hung out in an art space doing art together, that was really nice too. Wish we could do that more often but we all live too far apart to make it a regular thing.
I also semi-regularly go to local anime/gaming conventions where they typically host various meetups for whatever fandoms, I sometimes go to those and it's been enjoyable too. Sometimes weirdos turn up though, there's an infamous autistic transbian going to a lot of conventions around here. He doesn't even try to pass and is not only fully brainwashed with woke, he has his own bonkers conspiracy theories that he fully believes are true and is addicted to lesbian porn. Whenever I see him I honestly just hang around in the distance to make sure he doesn't bother any teen girls because I think he's actually dangerous.
And the reason I don't think hanging out in an ideology based group is simply because they're always batshit fucking crazy people. It's one thing to just casually hold a political belief, but the ones who seek others out and get group validation from it always turn into weird extremists who cannot handle a single "wrong" opinion from anyone else. See the above transbian guy for proof.
The exceptions are if it's a support group, or if they're a legit organization that works to make changes to the world, such as the LGB alliance trying to stop the trans ideology from mutilating more kids.

>>2304678There is actually a way, and it's to alone watch horror movies and/or playing through horror games. This lets you in a safe and secure environment get used to jump scares and high tension scenes. Eventually you will get used to it and you'll get less jumpy as a result.
Any time you get too scared you can pause and take a few deep breaths. Think about how it's just a movie/game and it's not real. Afterwards when you've gotten through it all you reflect over how you really did it, you made it through, you survived and you didn't react outwardly to any real person. You're still safe in your home. If a scene jumpscares you so you scream, verbally or physically react - watch it through and pause it. Immediately go back and watch the scene again a few times until you can watch it without having a physical reaction. If you're not used to horror movies and they make you feel sick from portraying scary kinds of violence then don't forget to take breaks, maybe aim for one movie a week.
