Okay. Uh. Relationships? Really?
Let me clue you in: most people in porn do not have great long term relationships. Many don’t have them at all. I’ve known a few women IRL that were either in porn, or worked as escorts in one capacity or another. Their personal relationships tended to be volatile, at best, because it’s really hard to separate out the things you do as a professional from what you do personally, especially when they look almost exactly the same.
The difference in space ends up being significant; 500mb for lossless, 100 or so mb for 320kbps CBR. It adds up quickly, and expandable memory is rare now.
That’s not really true. If I rip at 320kbps VBR, I can definitely hear a difference with 320kbps CBR. VBR ends up giving me weird audio artifacts; it sounds like the music is hollowed out and echo-y. I’m not using particularly nice headphones.
Might be how the program I’m using rips things, but man, the stuff I’ve accidentally ripped as VBR is unlistenable to me.
Sure, but they also clean very easily. It’s not like a clog kills them, unless you’re using a drying oil, something that turns into varnish inside the pump.
No, there’s actually no evidence that they work. Period. Not because people don’t know what they want–although that’s true–but because they can’t predict how people will feel in person. Attraction is incredibly complicated, and it doesn’t come down to checking a whole lot of boxes. The idea of ‘market value’ is pure incel bullshit; that’s the reason that incels do things like looksmaxxing, and it’s also the reason that it utterly fails.
At best, they can help screen people for core values, e.g., I’m not going to be able to get along with an evangelical christian, and I’m certainly not going to be able to date anyone that believes that firearms should be banned or heavily restricted. But even that’s difficult, because people that seem to have radically different values can still have good relationships with each other.
Most of it is a placebo effect.
Chaffing and moisture management. Underwear is more often than not cotton. Putting a layer of cotton between you and the lycra would trap moisture. And yeah, the chaffing would be unreal.
And the best part? Matching algorithms don’t do shit. You can’t actually predict attraction and interest based on matching character traits.
And yet, doesn’t everyone have the rights to the fruit of their own labor?
Even if it’s not causing brain injuries, it is causing hearing loss. Even if you double up and wear both earplugs and electronic ear muffs, a rifle at an indoor range is LOUD.
BTW, having silencers on everything would go a very long way to eliminating these risks. Silencers slow down the expansion of gasses, which also slows down the pressure wave.
I WILL get to see them live some day. I missed my chance earlier this year in Montreal, and everything in Quebec is sold out through next year.
I film USPSA matches in POV and post it on OnlyFans. Definitely not nude tho.
That’s… Not really true.
The gov’t supplies ammunition, yes. But you can also quite legally buy your own ammunition. And you can take your military rifle to a range to practice.
In the US, it’s a bit worse than that. They can demand you unlock your phone, and, if you won’t, they can confiscate it to mirror it. Also, it’s–very broadly speaking–within 100 miles of any international border, and an international airport counts as an international border.
…Jesus.
Remind me to start getting negotiations on video…
Look through Chef Knives To Go; the best ones aren’t ‘brands’, they’re made by individual craftsmen.
Shibari is normal for me. That’s just my jam. Not into impact, blood, not super into choking, but can do it more-or-less safely if that’s what my partner enjoys receiving. No shit or piss (technically squirting is mostly pee, but somehow that’s okay). I like tying a partner up, blindfolding them, and then alternating between soft/erotic touch and riding crop/paddle/etc. Or tickling, but that’s one is a bit risky, since I had a partner that nearly dislocated a shoulder straining at the ropes. Feet are meh, biting is okay, wax seems like a pain to clean up.
Had a partner that really wanted to be ‘abducted’ and ‘raped’; never got around to it before we broke up. It would have been risky in a big city, but still…
i hadn’t realized it was supposed to be auxiliary. Interesting.
As it stands, English ends up being one of the most widely used second languages, which is nuts because English is a fuckin’ nightmare to learn.
Heh.
I do rope. I’m out of practice, but that’s my jam. I know someone online and IRL, but mostly online, that really wants to be tied up. Getting them to meet up again in person again so we can talk through an entire scene, and make sure that it’s fully safe and consensual is like pulling teeth. It’s… Worrisome. I know that some of the things they want simply aren’t going to happen; breath play is already extremely risky (altho, hmmmmm, I just realized that I could clip and O2 saturation monitor to a toe, and that would alert to dangerous conditions…), doing it when tied up vastly increases the risk. They’re experienced in other BDSM activities, but not rope work, and I get the feeling that they haven’t been overly concerned with safety in the past.
I don’t see why they would do that.
Because it was about sex and kink, which is icky.
That’s actually serious. It was something that makes them deeply uncomfortable and feels gross to them, and so they tried for a much harsher charge.
Tails or Qubes probably.
