Becoming emotionally dependent on someone you pay for intimacy is an extremely precarious thing, not just for the client but also the seller.
Please do not give yourself or them the risk of being tempted by that.
Go to a community center instead, volunteer at an animal center, go to a soup kitchen, donate some clothes at a shelter.
All these places can give you a sense of belonging if you are seeking a genuine connection, don’t worry about being desperate, as long as you respect peoples boundaries it will get better with time.
Such a fitting name… telling people that they are worse than slaves, mere cogs in their machine and still they have no choice but to turn.
Jup, at the current size it is actually manageable.
Looks similar to a syringe, i guess it prevents them from swallowing too much air?
The term “butlerian jihad” suddenly makes a lot more sense. 🤔
Well at the end of the day it is just noodle soup that has a few different spices than European food.
If you don’t enjoy it, maybe you just don’t like the garlic+msg combo?
My father remembers communists as a very real threat to his life, the Stasi of the DDR could have killed him as he made multiple illegal crossings of the iron curtain.
I was born after the german reunification so that stuff was “just” history to me growing up, but as I got older I got to learn more of how miserable life was under Honecker from history books and first hand accounts and why people would even risk their lives to cross the border to get into non-communist nations in the first place.

I get the feeling that communist means a very different thing to you based on how you phrased that post.
I have so much empathy for parents with their seemingly endless patience, I know I wouldn’t last a month in their position.
My father said something to the tune of: “If you are under 30 and not a communist then you are heartless and if you are over 30 and still a communist then you have succumbed to wishful thinking.”
When I was young I found that take annoyingly cynical, but I have been forced to look at that statement with reluctant agreement as I got older…
Is it cynical of me to vote for someone I share no ideological foundation with?
Maybe, but I have to be pragmatic sometimes, and the left is the only place where my political concerns are not ignored.

I recommend giving this a watch.

When you can openly reveal what makes you laugh it is a wonderful moment.




Jupp, teeth have to go too.
A gizzard is so much easier to maintain.
