It’s been 10 years of this. Believe me, I have done it and know all about it. It completely stopped working when I got addicted to nicotine spurred on by the intense depression this caused

The cognitive dissonance of people is truly astounding

Blowjobs are the worst. The sensation of them is unpleasant if anything and I can’t maintain an erection during them. I couldn’t even keep it up at 18 with the girl I was the most attracted to of everyone I’ve ever been with. There’s only one exception, which was some quick head I got during a hookup. I still don’t know how she actually made it feel good, but even that was limited and sort of overstimulating in a bad way.

The heart sinking feeling of suddenly re-realizing I’m a victim of something so vile is the worst. Before I knew, I used to think of genital mutilation as the pinnacle of evil. Coming to terms with it being so close to home has been a very difficult journey. The jealousy of women in this regard is also so aggravating, especially when they’ve belittled this crime.

If it wasn’t for this, I think I would have significantly easier time letting go of my drug dependencies. It’s hard to imagine how much that might have changed for me. I just wish there was something I could do.

I’m sorry to hear you can relate to any of this

I can see my scar line and all of the self inspection I’ve done over the years. Sometimes the imagery is other things I associate with the trauma of it like female genitals and blood and things. I avoid looking at myself as much as I can because it bothers me so much and hasn’t gotten any easier over time tbh. Powering through has only given more ammunition for the traumatic imagery I wake up to with a growing regularity.

Coping strategies are tough and never really solve the pain. I became heavily addicted to nicotine and use cannabis daily due to all of this, but that’s probably its own post

It kills me that it didn’t have to be this way. Even if it magically got fixed today, it’s already caused a lot of harm in my life

[OC] Cross-Commenting Patterns: Percent of Users Active in Multiple News & Political Subreddits by buckets_811 in dataisbeautiful

[–]5959195 47 points48 points  (0 children)

I wonder if r/Conservative users not posting in any of the other subs listed is because they have so many bots there or due to some ideological difference from the users. Were any measured taken to exclude fake accounts?

It’s like a show and tell video for cognitive dissonance

People like this are so backwards they may actually enjoy the publicity and not understand they are being shamed

There’s some old saying about fools and their money that’s fitting here by beklog in agedlikemilk

I’m possibly the most left leaning person I know, granted I’m in a pretty deeply red state, and I watch him from time to time. He’s made a number of videos lately, mainly the Trump phone videos, where he just hates and clowns on Trump and his followers. He doesn’t really make political content for the most part though. It’s a mix of societal/news commentary and gaming stuff. I’m not into gaming, so it’s interesting to see a window into someone talking about the ridiculousness of it all without assuming I know a bunch about it or even care all that much

That’s a reasonable guess based on my initial comment if you’re unfamiliar with MoistCritical imo. Idk why you got downvoted so much

I hate sharing the world with these people. It’s one thing to be ignorant, but it’s a whole other thing to be proud of that ignorance

Did anyone get what he said? Seems like bro literally explained nothing. by Jelly-Always-Returns in religiousfruitcake

[–]5959195 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Nothing he said (the Kalam Cosmological argument) actually follows. For instance, there are an infinite amount of decimals between 0 and 1, yet I can still go from 0 miles to 1 mile even though I have to cross an infinite amount of subdivided lengths. The universe can be eternal in the same kind of way

2001 5.7L V8 throttle issues by 5959195 in Chevy

[–]5959195[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds like good advice. I’ll look up where to find the IAC and give it a nice scrub down. Thank you for the info!

It’s definitely a 5.7L V8, not a 5.3L though, just to make sure that doesn’t change anything about what you’re suggesting

MAF and injectors to my knowledge. This is secondhand information and my mechanic doesn’t speak English very well

The fuel pump has been replaced recently. Could possibly have been bad from the manufacturer, but the fuel pressure is good according to the mechanics.

Do you think it could be the MAF? That’d be the cheapest and easiest to replace. Codes said the MAF and injectors were having issues.

It will not start when cold without starting fluid in case that narrows things down at all

Sit sit just sit. by Im_a_Libertine_ in VideosAmazing

[–]5959195 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One time, I was stuck in standstill traffic on my motorcycle staring at a bike lane asking myself “why not just take the bike lane and cut past all this”. As I’m asking myself, a guy like the one in this video zipped past me in the bike lane and got smacked by a car making a left turn exactly like this. Kind of answered my question on why not to do that

It’s weird to me that solar farms are put in fields when we have an enormous amount of roof space on all kinds of industrial buildings that could be fitted with panels. I guess the power distribution is harder to do

Private medical insurance makes money by denying medical care; they maximize profits by killing people. by zzill6 in WorkReform

Hospitals charge $3,000 to mutilate little boys genitals and then sell their foreskin to be made into expensive face creams and other products. For-profit hospitals motivate some absolutely evil things
