- Comment on How often is normal to masturbate? 1 week ago:
You might have a bit of a feedback loop going. Your body craves dopamine and gets it from being horny so when it need dopamine it also makes you horny.
I have adhd and i found my boy-clitoris way before my parents expected and somehow built a habit jacking off playing video games before I could even physically ejaculate. So now when I’m playing a game I still get the urge to stop and jack off simply cuz of how they got associated.
- Comment on How often is normal to masturbate? 1 week ago:
Do you have ADHD? If you do than you’re probably just chasing dopamine. Doesn’t mean you’re doing it an unhealthy amount, but if you’re doing it cuz you’re ‘bored’ not, ‘horny’ than that’s probably why.
Me personally it aches afterwards if I jack it too many times in one day. I don’t know about women. I imagine uterine walls can only handle so much dildo friction while clits can only handle so much vibrator.

I’m talking to a guy at the bottom of a dogpile right now and there’s this weird other account that I apparently blocked in the past commenting and downvoting lol.
, I wonder if they can be taught to change that. I know brain elasticity is a thing, and people can learn new habits
So like I’d assume its similar to healing from any emotional trauma. Like I realized dating someone whose parents didnt teach them unconditional love meant that they viewed all love towards them as fundamentally conditional. Ultimately it takes someone capable of giving that love until they figure it out. Which isn’t me anymore.

lol I had a guy make 4 alternates of my account on other instances to downvote me because he didn’t like what I said to “another user” (his alt).
On reddit I used to frequent a lot of IRL fight footage type subreddits and used to foolishly engage the comments and get dogpiled until I realized I was talking to people who’d never even gone to a bar much less seen a bar fight.

IMO a big, post-internet, problem is that people aren’t experiencing foundational relationships as children/teens that were the learning experiences to prepare people deeper connections like marriage.
People are growing up without learning the ability to trust or discern trustworthiness; and many other things that we can only learn through experience.
As per Maslow’s Pyramid, everyone is overworked and suck in bottom tier survival mode rendering them psychologically incapable of prioritizing emotional and relationship needs. So we get people who see interpersonal situations in black and white with villains and hero’s instead of people.

lmao I did not attack OP. Read back you’re being ridiculous.
- Comment on Is it reasonable to tell a person you once loved about the fact years later? 1 week ago:
Read back. I wasn’t harsh until OP responded disingenuously.

Would you be upset if someone told you that you don’t love your wife?
You? No. My father? yes.
The fact that you think I’m assuming things about your life shows that you’re reacting defensively instead of maturley considering what’s being presented to you.

I provided you answers, you’re just not emotionally intelligent enough to recognize them.
Listen.
Don’t tell her.
For your sake.
Good luck. You, specifically, are gonna need it.
- Comment on Is it reasonable to tell a person you once loved about the fact years later? 1 week ago:
To be clear, in this context NOT telling them would be the wrong decision. Very, different from OPs situation.
- Comment on Is it reasonable to tell a person you once loved about the fact years later? 1 week ago:
K but I don’t need to know how they feel when by their own words I can see that they’re conflating attraction with love.
You seem to want to help OP. But you’re actually reenforcing a very unhealthy mindset. Give you admission that you don’t know what’s best here it is rather irresponsible of you to baselessly undermine the consensus.
Some of the people here are family men who actually do know what we’re talking about. To falsely equate your “I don’t know” with experience driven advice, is a disservice to OP.

You’re self aware enough to ask the questions but lack the humility to accept the answers.
- Comment on Is it reasonable to tell a person you once loved about the fact years later? 1 week ago:
I wonder what makes you think otherwise.
Life experience. You have lot of growing up to do.
- Comment on Is it reasonable to tell a person you once loved about the fact years later? 1 week ago:
although I never loved anyone this much since.
Attraction /= love. You did not love her.
Yet all this time I had a desire to tell her about them.
You have a desire to have your attraction to her validated. You are essentially cat calling her but in ultra slow motion.
I would really want to cite some scientific study that “Over 80% of girls have their self-confidence lifted after being told they were secretly admired (p<0.05)”, but can’t find one.
Ya cuz in real life it would be “over 99% of women have experienced mental anguish from being told they were secretly admired.”

I could see vote score being a valuable moderation tool on the backend.
- Comment on Killing ownership is the method, killing the secondary market is the objective. 2 weeks ago:
I honestly think every single platform that uses a vote score system is inherently vulnerable to becoming an echo chamber.
The only value a vote score generates is consensus. This is at the cost of influencing readers before they even engage the content. It lowers the bar of participation, partly by removing the necessity of commenting approval/disapproval, and secondarily by making approval/disapproval anonymous.
Ultimately it makes it easier for people to participate without actually contributing and that lowers the quality of the end result.

I’m curious how many people who upvoted this only got into the genre after age 20. Excluding pre-internet fans who wouldn’t have had access as teenagers.

At a certain point Anime Games only exist because of teenage hormone levels.

- Comment on Valve has raised Steam Deck prices in the US 1 month ago:
Because producing chips requires a complicated supply chain.
- Taiwan. China wants to own it for the same reason they can’t just bomb it to smithereens. Producing chips requires human hardware engineers, possibly thousands depending on the complexity. Each engineer specializes in specific tasks and processes.
The human talent element is the most fragile and least replicable piece of the supply chain.
- Taiwan is close enough to China to take advantage of cheap factory labour for anything that doesn’t require engineering skills.
The geography of Taiwan & China is the backbone of the supply chain.
- Extreme Ultraviolet (EUV) lithography systems. ASML from the Netherlands owns the proprietary design for the massive and complex machines that print microchip transistors onto silicon. US/Netherlands have restricted the sale of the most advanced systems to China.
The machines that allow for microchip production are all owned by one company
- In retaliation to the above China has restricted Rare Earth Metal exports to western manufacturers.

- Comment on i'm fucking devastated but there are no exception 1 month ago:
Scott Stapp the vocalist and lyricist is a Christian and his solo albums are outrightly spiritual in theme.
Something you would have to grow up in the church to understand is how controversial a lot of “Christian bands” actually were in Christian circles. Like the pushback against music with scream vocals was real.
It was a genuine wedge issue because churches used professional audio/lights to attract members with polished modern rock worship music. Music became so intertwined that it led to all non christian music being labeled “secular”.
Bands like Creed didn’t fit either label but generally was considered acceptable listening material in the church circles I grew up in. Most objections to it genre based.
