I had a somewhat similar experience. Two years ago, I stopped playing video games when I noticed, I only did it by habit not because I enjoyed it so much. I remembered reading a lot when I was younger, so I picked it up again to fill my evenings.

It was hard at first. I wasn’t used to focus my attention like this anymore. But as you said, I learned to be patient over time. Now, I look forward to continuing my book every day! It is a great hobby to calm down and relax. As a side effect, my language skills (not english) improved a lot.

It’s been a long time since I read the books or watched the movies. In what way does Harry become a cop?

With these measures, there won’t be a free market, which means the creation of value will be regulated. I don’t see why you would call it capitalism.

FetLife is a good counterexample I did not know yet. And I completely agree: there is nothing wrong with women willingly doing porn.

But looking at other freely available porn, I cannot agree that only some porn studios treat their actors like submissive cash cows doing literally anything to feed the dopamine rush of their viewers. Sure the actors are paid for it. Prostitutes also get paid and still nobody would claim they are enjoying their job. In the end, we all need money to survive.

I agree. In our society, watching porn is normal. I went more after the feeling of the word.

Watching porn to get relief.

I – as many other guys in this society – learned to watch porn at a young age. So I wired sexual stimulation as well as the dopamine release after orgasm to porn. For many years of my life, I would not masturbate without it.

I denied my addiction because everyone watches porn, right? Also I thought, being addicted to porn means sitting at home all day fapping and watching more and more perverse stuff. So I can’t be addicted, if I watch porn once a week, right?

Well, it took me a long time to figure all that out. The society having such a positive attitude towards porn did not help. Maybe, we all are addicted. I think it’s super fucked up. If not due to the effect it has on our brains, then at least due to the humiliation of women for capital.

But isn’t the government hosting something like reddit better than the current state? The government is elected after all, while reddit isn’t. At the same time, nothing ensures, reddit isn’t used for propaganda.

Ah, I see!

What are your tasks that bore you?

fast forward

You’ve got a point. Thanks for the encouraging take!

We’ve done it before and made the lives of millions better. and we can do it again.

What are you referring to? No arguing, just curios.

They’re on a path to making things better than the US and once they do, we’ll have a new world order. If the US doesn’t wake up now, the second half of this century will be very different than the past 150 years.

What are you thinking of?

They tried to make me go to rehab 🎶

I get the reference, but this assassination will indeed lead to CEOs taking more safety precautions. As much as it might feel like a relief, another guy will just fill the position and nothing will change. It’s just a warning to the richest, that they need to be more careful, f. i., need to manipulate public opinions even more. Perhaps the health insurance companies will make more of an effort to keep their internal processes secret.

Or am I missing something?

This is why I hate this stuff. I hate people joking about how much coffee they’re drinking because they have so much work to do and don’t get to sleep. Meanwhile, every coffee joke sounds like this to me.

Neat! How do the glasses work? Do they block red light, making you kind of more awake?

Thank you for the lead. I will look into it

What “dating crisis”?

Man sollte sie ausgrenzen UND sich fragen, was die Linke falsch macht. Dann werden es auch wieder weniger AfD-Wähler.
