I had the same thought lol. Especially if there was enough space to put up a workshop next to it.

A good chunk of the rest is morons parroting them.

The only difference between it being forcible rape and it being “deception” is that the victim doesn’t know the real situation. It’s still forcing them to have sex against their will because if they knew the truth they would resist. The dictionary also supports this being rape.

rape 1 of 4 noun (1) ˈrāp Synonyms of rape 1 : unlawful sexual activity and usually sexual intercourse carried out forcibly or under threat of injury against a person’s will or with a person who is beneath a certain age or incapable of valid consent because of mental illness, mental deficiency, intoxication, unconsciousness, or deception

I’ve used this for years. Works great.

I am working on 100% RDR2 and the last bit I have to do is the gambling challenges. The last blackjack one is to win after hitting 3 times or something ridiculous like that. I sat there just playing blackjack through all 3 Robocop movies just hitting on every hand as fast as possible and I still didn’t get it.

Would he have had unprotected sex with her if he knew the truth? If not it’s pretty rapey. What if it were the other way around and he had slipped the condom off without her knowledge?

Of the things I listed:

Job - I’m always on the look out for better options, so far nothing has come up that pays more and I’m already not making enough to do the things I want to do.

Cleaning - Already said I have gamified it to get some enjoyment out of it in the past but I don’t see any more room for improvement there.

Traffic - I can leave work early to beat rush hour sometimes but that that only helps a little.

Grocery store - I’ve tried going to different ones but it’s more or less the same issues at all of the ones I’ve tried. I’ve figured out which days are usually less busy but it still sucks.

Working out - I vary my routines to not get too boring but it’s still more or less the same stuff over and over again. It was fun when I was making gains but now my physique is where I want it to be so it’s just maintenance.

Cooking- can try making new stuff but that just takes longer and comes with the risk of waste if I mess it up or don’t like it. Also sharing a kitchen with housemates that tend to pack all the freezer space with garbage they buy from costco.

Free time - I guess I could stay up later but then I’ll feel like shit all day the next day.

I’m open to suggestions but you’re acting like I don’t think about this shit constantly.

I can’t pick and choose what I do or do not enjoy doing. There’s nothing engaging about cleaning or doing laundry. When I first got out on my own there was at least some challenge in figuring out the most efficient way of doing things but that’s all been mastered long ago. My job mostly consists of going down a list of projects and emailing people to find out why they haven’t finished things that should have been done weeks ago. Then when I leave I get to sit in traffic for half an hour. Maybe stop at one of the over crowded, understaffed grocery stores to overpay for food. Get home, work out for an hour, shower, cook food, clean up, do whatever else needs doing. There’s nothing to enjoy about any of that. It’s all tedious as hell. I might have an hour or two after everything else is done to unwind before bed and even then I usually have too much on my mind to really get immersed in anything.

Well excuse the fuck out of me for not having enough free time to actually enjoy my life.

Psychological inflexibility here means getting stuck in rigid behavior patterns to the point that it messes with living a full and meaningful life.

Rigid behavioral patterns like having to work 40 hours a week, shop, feed yourself, clean, do laundry, go to the doctor, pay bills and so on, over and over and over again for the rest of your life?

You could do bodyweight stuff. Pushups, pullups, squats, core work, etc.

I don’t notice much of a difference personally and I have several years of consistent workout logs to go off.

Usually I don’t notice but it was pretty jarring in Book of Boba Fett. The guy was all dusty living in a desert and then he smiles and his teeth are blindingly white. I was like… Damn Disney you can’t afford the makeup department to dirty those up a bit?

I appreciate the effort anyway

Nobody’s DMing me nudes

Without ambition and drive people would still be living in caves. You think someone’s going to learn science or medicine without ambition or drive?

I haven’t watched any significant amount of TV in 12 years let alone news channels. I don’t need some jabbering moron with an agenda to tell me how I should feel about things I can observe with my own eyes. I wasn’t even initially talking about people receiving government assistance, I was talking about my coworkers I’ve had at various jobs. It’s always a situation where the few are carrying the many and whatever their reason for being lazy, the outcome is more work and problems and stress for their fellow workers. It’s selfish as fuck. I’m not exactly the pinnacle of mental health myself but I power through it when necessary so I don’t create problems for others.

I’ve found that if I can mask long enough to prove my competence people overlook my being a fucking weirdo when it slips off. I do work in IT though so I’m kind of middle of the pack as far as weirdos go.

The only ones that really bother me are the ones that go through the center part of their nose like a cartoon bull. I can’t stop thinking about them getting crusty when you have a runny nose and it grosses me out.

You create impossible standards for women because you’re secretly a closeted gay man.

I create impossible standards for women because I’m scared of rejection.

We are not the same.

There’s more ads now than back in the day too. Used to be like one ad break per show. Now it seems like it’s 50% show 50% ads with banner ads on the bottom of the screen and pop up shit and all kinds of garbage. I can’t stand watching actual TV.
