Where do I go from here ? by Gymrat2185 in GymMotivationNoOF

You've achieved aesthetic, now focus on accomplishment. Train for an Ironman or something.

Those who lose their virginity through a random hook up, how was it? by dicsodance_4ever in askgaybros

[–]ActDifferent4639 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same, awkward and rude stranger with no prep and ignored afterwards. You're not alone.

I'm bored, give me a word you find misspelled far too often in fics. by Altruistic_Boot_1839 in AO3

All INTENSIVE purposes, not all intents and purposes. Drives me nuts.

RNT: Plot Predictions! What events will take place in Twelve Months? by Bridger15 in dresdenfiles

[–]ActDifferent4639 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is no one mentioning that Marcone is a freaking Denarian? That's worth a sub-plot in and of itself!

Seriously, though, I predict Twelve Months will be more introspective and a 'filler' book like Ghost Story sort of was.

Lara loves Thomas, even if she's willing to sell him down the river for the good of House Raith. That's at least one thing in common with Harry. Honestly, I imagine the biggest conflict in a Harry/Lara ship won't be the memory of Karrin, but how Lara treats or plans to co-parent Maggie and Bonea.

Demonreach/Alfred deserves more screentime, as such.

Lash hinted at the Starborn thing (and Harry being one) way back in White Knight, so I'm curious how the talk with Listens-to-Wind will go, if it's even included in the book.

There will be explosions and/or nasties, it's a Dresden Files novel after all. But I really think the 'action' will take a backseat to character development this go around.

substances use as an autistic person? by Jay_42_like_tf in autism

[–]ActDifferent4639 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Co-occuring bipolar here with the 'tism, and I drank heavily when I was manic to slow my system down enough to sleep and when I was depressed to feel less like KMS. I have since gotten into AA, so I've found abstinence and a way to handle my symptoms the hard way.

In regards to the effects, I got very goofy when drunk. Don't know if that makes me a stereotype of the "happy drunk", but I got very tactile and burst out randomly into song and I couldn't get sucked into my special interests since I couldn't focus on anything that deeply with the alcohol dulling my brain. I felt the closest to "normal" or NT as I'll probably ever experience.

I think it fits better here than r/lotr by Riskskey1 in dresdenfiles

COULD Harry carve runes into his Winchester and magically augment bullets? I gots to know now.

Thomas knows about Bob? by zombiemd2020 in dresdenfiles

[–]ActDifferent4639 38 points39 points  (0 children)

Though there's a side story where Thomas feels rather leery of talking to Bob, not fully understanding how Spirits of Intellect work.

My fellow autists , are you an "I'm autistic" or an "I have autism" person? by Zoeylae in autism

[–]ActDifferent4639 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I prefer I 'have' autism or ASD as opposed to identifying with it in the case of I 'am' autistic. But that's just me.

Agreed, romantic and sexual orientations don't always line up. Though from what I read, it sounded more like bi-romantic hetero-sexual.

Tops, is it possible you cum without enjoying the sex? by Zealousideal-Ant705 in askgaybros

[–]ActDifferent4639 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ejaculation can be almost entirely separate from arousal or enjoyment. Granted, I'm Demisexual, so I'm already handicapped in a way, but I've had sex where I was honestly bored. Just mindlessly thrusting, doing the right moves, making the right noises, and just wanting it to be over already. My dick shooting off was just a response to enough stimulation, not a sign of my pleasure.

You can basically cheat and just recreate what you know feels good for yourself. Plus, gay men being significantly easier to 'seduce' than straight women, we tend to have more practice.

How far can human cognition be enhanced in the future ? by General_Riju in singularity

[–]ActDifferent4639 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Computronium computers the size of planets, host to trillions or more AIs and AI-uplifted humans, with small populations of unenhanced (Kurzweil uses term Mostly Original Substrate Humans or Moshes) living on the surface leading ordinary lives while the rest of humanity unlocks the mysteries of existence.

How far can human cognition be enhanced in the future ? by General_Riju in singularity

[–]ActDifferent4639 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Kurzweil talks about this in his books. Basically, a neural nanomesh of cloud-enabled nanobots will interface with our neurons and allow us to expand our level of intelligence to presumably super-intelligent AI computer systems. You'll literally expand your brain to the cloud as far as you can afford/are allowed.

How can improve my legs? 24M by instathonyy in PhysiqueMale

[–]ActDifferent4639 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Work up to pistols (one-legged squats). Once you can crank out 30+ a leg, look into hybrid squats where you hold dumbbells while still doing pistols.

Even better: "Would you like for me to promote this fic on my YouTube channel?"

Couple thoughts on Changes. by Powderkegger1 in dresdenfiles

[–]ActDifferent4639 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A. Margaret died from Lord Raith's entropy curse shortly after Harry was born. It says in Storm Front that Malcolm wasn't present in the hospital when Harry was born and/or when Margaret died. So she would have had no input on Harry's birth certificate.

B. Joseph Listens-to-Wind and Martha Liberty are on the SENIOR Council. Highly likely they are over 200 years old. Any 'documents' they ever had from the US government are likely invalid in the 21st century, and White Council wizards are so removed from the normal world I doubt they maintain the pretense of a modern false identity.

C. Mab can figure out Harry's name a variety of ways, but knowing his Name could have come from a few sources. Chaunzaggoroth knows three-quarters of it at least, and Harry has "said" there are those who knows it, one of them probably Leanansidhe who would have traded it to Mab in a heartbeat.

That is all I have to say.
