- Comment on The recent Steam censorship debacle actually sort of opened me up to adult games. 5 days ago:
Kinda funny to see it in Canada as well, especially when you throw Quebec culture into the mix (things seem a little more sex positive over there compared to other parts of the country, which is neat to think about sometimes).

- Comment on what books about personal boundaries do you know that don't mention god? 1 week ago:
It’s a question that isn’t relevant to OPs ask here. Do you have a useful book suggestion that presents the topic of boundaries and maintaining them in a secular way? Whether they believe in a deity or not?
- Comment on what books about personal boundaries do you know that don't mention god? 1 week ago:
Nedra Glower Tawaab’s books come highly recommended: Set Boundaries, Find Peace + the accompanying workbook, and Drama Free (mentioned here already).

C’mon Flax, we get it, you’re a Christian. OP’s just looking for a secular self-help/psychology book. Do you have a recommendation or not?

I am a horrible person, but the only thing I can think of reading this is a small-circuit wrestling event where all participants have this set of chromosomes, billed as ‘The Triple X Throwdown’, for the title of Supreme Female.

Milk, butter, a lil’ cream cheese, extra shredded cheese, spices to taste. You’re welcome.

Boil mac and cheese, drain the pasta, put in industrial cheese powder agent, moisten with water instead of milk, put in butter/margarine/tears and stir.
- Comment on They'd just appear out of nowhere 2 weeks ago:
I’d recommend seeking out a therapist if it causes you distress, specifically one with some clinical interest in psychedelics if possible (keywords include ‘integration therapy’). Know that while there’s still a lot to learn about HPPD, you are not alone, and in a lot of cases it can be managed. It’s mostly a question of recognizing your triggers and developing tools to work through them (so if stress is a trigger, stress reduction techniques; abstinence from cannabis or other drugs if that’s a trigger (pretty common), etc.)
Some folks just kinda roll with it, but there is stuff you can do help manage.
- Comment on They'd just appear out of nowhere 2 weeks ago:
Lol, HPPD go brrrrr.
I can’t tell you if this is what you’re experiencing, but worth a read if you haven’t come across the term before: …wikipedia.org/…/Hallucinogen_persisting_percepti…

I think there’s a place for a community called ‘epiceriedumemes’, a play on words denoting both variety of content (like an epicerie) and spicyness (epicier).
Then again, it also really invites more bakery memes, so idk.

Real talk, this is the absolute first thing that popped into my mind reading this thread. Have some cards for therapists in the overnight bag for folks that make her go “This is beyond my expertise as an escort. You want the other profession that leases their time by the hour for human interaction.”

It is enforced, by varying degrees, by the censure or support of other humans, as well as one’s own conscience.
The moral code you follow may have been authored by a creator figure. It may not have. Frankly, it’s beside the point. In practice, Christian morality is enforced by support or censure of the church and its teachings. It takes as its bedrock a shared conception of humanity as the Created. An atheist’s or humanist’s morality is similarly enforced by support or censure of their human community, though with a different bedrock (a belief in the dignity and capacities of humanity, for instance, either absent of or separate from a deity).
One does not need to be a Christian to act morally. It does mean certain lines may be drawn in areas different than a Christian, but I would say that that simply makes the individual a non-Christian where those lines do not otherwise impede on, say, humanity’s inherent dignity.
I want to say I write this with full respect for your beliefs in your Creator. I believe tolerance for the beliefs of others, where they do not impede on those who do not share those beliefs to live their lives freely, is important. I will add that if OP was being truthful, and actually is a Christian struggling with soliciting sex workers, your suggestion to seek out the Church is a valid one. If nothing else, it places him among humans that share the values he seeks to embody, and may help him on the path he wishes to walk.
For my part, I see no issue so long as both parties enter these arrangements with no coercion or out of compulsion, with the issue here being the compulsion. If it feels bad, and it serves no greater aim, don’t do it, figure out why you’re doing it, and do things more aligned with your morals and ideals - that’s my take.
- Comment on Does anyone struggle with spending money foolishly on prostitutes? 1 month ago:
Because morality exists independently of any diety figure. It is ultimately a set of ideas about what constitutes good conduct between humans and the environment around them.
- Comment on Why do people hate coldplay? 1 month ago:
The amount of radio play they got, for me. I was a big fan of How You Remind Me when it came out, and they do have a handful of listenable songs, but the sheer amount of repetition changed things from “they’re ok” to “omg not again, fuck these guys”.
I feel similar, but to a lesser degree, about Coldplay.

Ngl this was my first thought. Or dig out a pair of those ol’ soap shoes and do a sick grind (practice first with both of these).
- Comment on My son got Nikes so he doesn't get teased. 1 month ago:
Every serious bullying incident I ran into growing up ended when a kid got popped in the mouth. Every unserious bullying incident made no impact when I knew if it got serious, I could pop them in the mouth and likely come out on top.
I’ve met way too many adults with personality issues that were a product of adults telling child them “physical violence is always wrong, just tell an adult, be the bigger person” etc. It always needs to be taught as a last resort, and it needs to be understood that even justified violence comes with consequences and other tools must be used first, but when you’ve done everything you’re supposed to and no one is helping to the resolve the problem, sometimes you have to do it yourself.
It ain’t pretty, and it ain’t ideal, but it’s the way it is.

Go to bed early on April 19th. Wake up at 4:20 AM. Have a lil’ wake and bake. Get kitted up and go for a nice wander, listening to some sweet tunes, maybe hit a trail for a bit, etc. Meander your way to the brunch place, preferably an all-you-can-eat affair, around opening time. Have one more bowl/joint. If AYCE, make the owner regret their business model. Spend the rest of the day in a food coma watching stupid movies.
This is the way.

Obviously still not realistic, but I feel like the super-imposed text thing some TV shows/movies have done more recently works, so long as you create a sense of tension/time crunch.
Toss in some red text and error messages once and a while in front of a dude sweating with dramatic music in the background, and it gets the point across.
