I want a switch that makes me able to not be perceived.

I joked with my mom about how everything started hurting after 25, and she was baffled because for her the aches also only started after 50.

Yeah a couple of months ago we were casually doing flips and rolls on fresh snow and rolling down snow piles while laughing.

Occasionally climb up trees for no reason, other times to retrieve geocaches (treasure hunt!)

Last summer kicking ball in the garden with no purpose (but with beer and BBQ)

Things go viral sometimes and it snowballs. The more famous you are, the more famous you can become. She’s also good enough at being an entertainer to keep riding the wave of increased fame, with added resources the bigger she gets.

I do feel like this at all times. :)

I’m 37, but I have no clue what this is.

I’m not judging you right now, just curious. Does it also feel that (gay) men immediately sexualize other men? Do you do that? Did you feel it was done to you?

Was talking to my partner now (he’s a man, I’m not). Wondered if hearing straight men objectifying women when you’re yourself not into women sounds a lot more jarring and unreasonable, precisely because you’re in a way “sober” about women.

I’m not saying men don’t have a huge damaging influence growing up, that a lot can only break with a lot of effort, but with your brother’s friends it sounds also like a bunch of horny teenagers posturing to each other. Not ideal behavior and not always harmless, but far from making men emotionless hole-seeking creatures.

I see them for what they are.

You are a man, do you see yourself that way too?

The key is adjusting difficulty so that it’s not too boring but not too frustrating. I am really bad at Elden Ring but I just made myself over leveled and it’s quite fun. Occasionally I just get help for a boss if it’s too frustrating.

I am too old to care about the pride of being good at it though.

I don’t know about the dishes but according to my memory of something I read a while ago (can’t look things up right now), the kitchen sink and kitchen brushes aren’t much cleaner than anything in the toilet; and actually, kitchen washcloths/sponges tend to be worse than toilet surfaces.

So, maybe don’t put toilet brushes in the dishwasher but definitely don’t put in kitchen washcloths either. Not sure what this means about us washing dishes by hand with a sponge either. And maybe don’t put in used washcloths along your clothes in the washing machine.
