Covid really fucked everything up. My sense of time and recent-ish history went to shit.

The word you’re looking for is Rook.

That’s max-level dad material there. Punny and affirming.

Wow, fuck that horseshit.

Mashed potatoes from KFC. It just tastes like and empty sadness.

ONE OF US! ONE OF US! ONE OF US

Yep. In regards to the “find a sex club” comment, you don’t necessarily have to participate; you can probably simply watch/socialize with others.

• Website with a directory of local groups by country on the right side: https://findamunch.com/why-should-i-munch/

One more thing, since you mentioned a religious upbringing: assuming your upbringing was Christian and you still consider yourself Christian, and you/your spouse don’t mind reading books, I can offer some recommendations that I would consider supportive and affirmative.

I drank too much kombucha in a short time period and it gave me a terrible bellyache.

Fountain pens are very cool, though. My problem is own more inks than pens.

Allergy warnings on products that are very clearly are made of potential allergens, such as a peanut allergen warning on a jar of peanut butter.

Another option is to try and find a local munch or kink club. From what I understand, munches are more social in nature where people talk about sex and kink, not necessarily committing the acts at the munch. Whether or not that counts as “porn” in your eyes is up to you, but I think having the social aspect of talking to other people in real life may help ease you and your spouse into discovering a broader world of sexuality than what your conservative upbringings taught you, and perhaps making the emotional/psychological aspect of your transition easier.

I see what you did there. Very clever!

Came here for the “use Linux” comments. Like clockwork. To be fair: I’m guilty of it too.

Local roasters, because I enjoy their coffee and enjoy supporting small and local businesses when I can.

I think it’s just how much I hate working for other people.

Or I hate work.

These aren’t mutually exclusive, you can hate both at the same time!

1. Yes.
2. I really enjoy my Ducky One 3 with Cherry MX brown switches.

Fuck South America, I guess.

Before ChatGPT kicked off the AI boom in late 2022, you may recall Zuckerberg was convinced virtual reality would take over the world. As of Q1, the company’s Reality Labs team has burned some $60 billion trying to make the Metaverse a thing.

Absolutely hilarious.

You can do anything once.
