When you think about yourself or users carrying their devices, what sort of devices do you envision?
My 2021 MBP has those round feet that stick out an bit and is like 5 lbs. It’s an aluminum unibody. Grippy in the hands and rigid. I can gesture with it and have absolutely held it at the extent of my reach with two fingers to physically block an excited (but leg-injured) dog from running. My 2024 Dell Precision is 7 lbs, smooth, slippery plastic, and don’t move it without two hands on it at all times.But, truthfully - from my IT view - 5/26 blaze it.
Do what you want, when you want, how you want as long as you don’t fuck with the security of the device. If you mess up your work device, your employer should have a plan for that. It sucks, but that’s the cost of doing business and a reasonable employer should know that. Obviously, don’t be careless, but things happen and we can’t nanny everyone. We’re adults, and if people mess up their gear, then respond appropriately. As a matter of IT and organizational planning, clear, effective, but reasonable policies and contingencies should be in place.
As far as personal devices go, meh. All the devices back up regularly and there’s usually a budget or warranty program in place for repair/replacement. - Comment on 4 days ago:
I sort of feel bad for doing that, and I am probably tempting fate, but it feels so natural to just hold it like a frisbee.

Bad design.
Dungeon goes in the basement, not in the middle next to the cuddle puddle or the burlesque room. The noise and activity would throw off the vibe.
Really, it sort of depends on the type of energy you’re going for, but I’d make that dungeon room the massage parlor/tarot card reading/high tea service room. Foyer gets a boot shine station.
Hair and makeup moves to the polycule room, which is lined with mirrors and outside the gender swap machine.
Pet play moves to the current massage parlor, which appears to be some sort of 3-seasons room - everyone knows that cats need sunlight. Current pet play room becomes vetting and administration, plus coat check.
Milking room and dungeon go to the basement, along with group showers, rigging, and the science lab (medical, vacuum beds, electrostim) and other wet or high noise equipment. No carpet. Tile. That way you can hose it out. Poly play room, group sex, and individual suites are upstairs. Each room has ‘flipper’ signs indicating status - reserved, observers welcome, participants welcome, do not disturb, in need of cleaning. Upstairs bathroom has a compact dishwasher under the sink that’s capable of sterilizing. Pantry has a lending library of sorts. - Comment on [deleted] 3 weeks ago:
This is why you just be honest.
Look, we’re in modern times.- Act ethically. Keep no secrets.
- Fuck whoever you want, but make sure everyone is on board and in the know.
- You’re the firewall to your sexual network. If your network is one person or a hundred, you verify the status of each new partner before you engage in something that could expose you to risk. (Verify, don’t ask. See the paperwork.)
- Get tested regularly to establish a baseline. The periodicity depends on your risk factors and the size/velocity of your sexual network. Once every 3-4 new people in the network is common in my experience.
And that’s it!
Pro tip: Boundaries end at your body. You shouldn’t tell someone not to be who they are, but you can choose not to accept a relationship style that doesn’t work for you. And vice versa.

I think it’s reasonable to fund meaning in a hobby and to be afraid of bears.

In the last little bit, I’ve noticed he’s had several weird ‘off script’ bits he’s been doing.
Commentators have picked up on it and have discussed them at length to highlight how cooked his brain is.- Trump Reveals Rep. Neal Dunn’s Terminal Diagnosis – Then Claims He Helped Reverse It
- Trump wildly sidetracks White House event to reveal he paid for angel mother to get her eyes fixed
I think it’s part of an intentional effort to seed a mythos around him. Some true information, some false information. Overrepresent some of the fantastical stuff, especially through media channels to your low-information fans. Get a couple idiot commentators to start parroting a Jesus narrative for him. Pick a fight with the pope, maybe. See if you can dear-leader yourself into becoming the god king while your oligarch buddies fuck with the media and informational landscape.
Seems to be tracking.

At this rate, I just assumed he posted it with the captions. (I mean, I would probably figure out why, but my first impulse was a ‘sure, why not?’ kind of acceptance.)
Which is the goal of hypernormalization, right?

Cover/close just your dominant eye. Black.
Okay. Now your non-dominant one. Nothing.
Nothing is meant by this, really. It’s a neat trick and I like to share. It doesn’t invalidate your statement, because one sense does not constitute our whole being.

I appreciate having two bathrooms. We can poop at the same time!
Plus the bathroom by the bedrooms is the one that hides all our shame. The one near the living room is whimsical and slutty – the exact takeaway about us I want guests to have. (It’s got a lot of cartoon boobs and butts in there, some interracial sapphic mermaid art, a small painting done in the style of classic “ship art” of a penis breaching the waves like a whale. And of course the toilet has both Moby Dick and the 1970’s photo-illustrated version of “The Joy of Sex” for reading materials.
