Honestly? Not really. I haven’t seen them in about 4 years, and the last I really checked in one was super into reading fantasy novels and the other one like Lego. Lol. They’re family friends, not children of siblings.

You can do that‽ Oh hell yeah. Cool uncle status achieved!

Hope no one minds me asking here, but does anyone have any suggestion for games on sale that a 13 year old boy might like? Need a cool uncle gift for the nephew

Iirc, we used honey to stick it
- Comment on Get with the times, grampa 3 days ago:
Yeah, just the outer most layer. You gotta be careful because it’s so crinkly it will break if you’re not careful. Stick it with honey

I’ve done this. It works pretty well, no onion flavor.

Thank you! I’ll check out discord, too. I haven’t left that one yet. … Should I?

Use a water reminder app on my watch, but my problem is that I try for a gallon a day, and my options to add water to the app are limited. Either I can do 250ml at a time, in which case I have to try and mentally count how many sips I’ve had, and add it when I think I hit 250ml, or I can lower it to around 20ml, or a sip, and I can only add 99 in a day…
Either way, it’s a PITA. I just got a 4 liter metal water bottle, and try to make sure I drink the whole thing in a day.

Tell me about it! I wish I remembered it. I learned it pretty well for a while, but had no one to speak it with and it just… Fizzled away. Is there a community on Lemmy, do you know?

Its my lower back for me. My balls are extremophiles, they can handle hot and cold. But my lower back is like some sickly victorian child who needs constant care
- Comment on Anon tries to be attractive 1 week ago:
If it’s blue you’re likely not using enough lube and you probably need to ask your partner to go a little slower and be more gentle. Anal shouldn’t hurt unless you want it to.

I’ve never had that sort of bro-y guy group, but it’s also not something I long for…I’m glad you’ve got it, though! It seems super valuable to those who want it. I just can’t watch football. Lmao
- Comment on If billionaires and CEOs feel like they need to start paying for large security details, would that be an example of trickle down economics? 1 week ago:
Hang on, recently told the story and I’ll link it.
- Comment on If billionaires and CEOs feel like they need to start paying for large security details, would that be an example of trickle down economics? 2 weeks ago:
Granted, I’ve never done security for a billionaire CEO, but I worked security (including personal security) for well over a decade. And I can tell you without a doubt there is no security in security. Nothing we do matters, it’s all entirely for show. Now, at that high level CEO security detail type it may be different, but a security job is basically “be the one who call the popo,” and no one I knew in security, save one jackass, ever considered the job worth a damn to do anything over.
- Comment on Anon plays spin the bottle 2 weeks ago:
silly at times
That’s one I can’t do. I feel like I have to be stoic all the time in person, because I’m a big guy, and I’m unattractive so I have to maintain something to be, idk, respected? I have to really know a person before I can allow myself to be silly around them. My last “boyfriend” cemented that in, too. He dumped me and said he couldn’t deal with the “cutesy shit” took me a while to get past that one. Not the guy, so much. I felt like I had found something I never thought I’d have, and then ending it by saying that… Cut deep.
And I’m lucky on the friend front. I have a lot of long term friendships online, but I also have a few very close IRL friends, and I’m extremely close with my family.
Do you have anyone you can be passionate about things with?
- Comment on Anon plays spin the bottle 2 weeks ago:
I’m sort of the opposite, honestly. People tend to like my personality, but I get a sort of “villagers with pitchforks” reactions to my appearance. Haha. It’s incredible how judgemental the world the is, and how you have to meet so many expectations to get through it. Any little thing off in the wrong direction and you can kiss that traditional life plan goodbye.
What kind of things do you enjoy that you’re unable to engage in to have a good time?
- Comment on Anon plays spin the bottle 2 weeks ago:
Honestly, kids can be horrible little creatures. They learn it from their parents, all those little prejudices that the grown ups hold but hold back on to be polite or to fit into changing worlds, they get magnified in children who don’t know who and what and why, only that authority figures have taught them through their actions and the words they don’t even realize the kids are paying attention to.
- Comment on Anon plays spin the bottle 2 weeks ago:
I can. Been there. Couple times. My foster brother and I used to hang out with a bunch of other kids from ages 8-14, and whenever someone had a bright idea for a game like that, completely unprompted would come “but I’m not kissing Dharmacurious.” Shut fucking hurt. I never asked to play those games, never tried to join in. Would try my best to excuse myself before someone suggested a game like that. I didn’t have my first kiss until years and years and years after I lost my virginity, because I only ever did hookups with random strangers online, because I never felt like I was even capable of being desired in anyway other than a quick lay. Being ugly sucks. It truly, honestly does. I shower religiously, I brush my teeth (which, somehow, I still managed to get fucked in that department). Still, I send a picture online, blocked. I’m not an Incel or anything, I don’t think I’m owed a damn thing, it’s just the reality of the situation. I’m a fun, interesting person, with a good sense of humor, thick skin, intelligent, caring, loyal to a fault, and all the other things my shrink has helped me realize. But no one gets to know that, because there has to be some physical attraction for someone to want to get to that point. Can’t fault em for that. But being a bridge troll is lonely, and it sucks. And up thread someone suggested they should shower. That’s a fucked up thing to say, you don’t know their life. And I know green text=fiction, but this one rings fucking true for some of us.
