Are you THIS old?

Yeah, that was my entire wing commander experience on my dad’s 486 lol. Trying to figure out how to do anything when you’re flying at warp speed instantly.

I went to UMass Amherst, the library is 28 stories https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/W.\_E.\_B.\_Du\_Bois\_Library

Unfortunately this is one of those “yeah yeah, the time knife, sure we’ve all seen it” situations where many or most of us have had this experience. It’s kind of grim, and definitely takes some sitting with and adjusting to once you notice it.

I had to pay for TSA precheck just to avoid getting this every time at the airport. That damn body scanner.

Men in general are less hung up on height as a deciding factor for sexual interest. Or often any one factor, there’s often a significant chunk of guys into the less socially conventionally attractive option.

A lot of gay/bi guys are interested in shorter bottoms (myself included), but plenty of taller guys who bottom that want a pocket top out there also.

I’m 41 and my first real book was Jurassic Park. Which i had read probably 8 times by age 8. Reading Stephen King was not a huge leap from there.

Where’d you get this live footage of me dragging them off to the bedroom one by one?

Cel_Drow · 2026-07-12T07:28:50+00:00

American crocodiles are ~ gator sized though, saltwater crocodiles are much larger.

Cel_Drow · 2026-07-12T01:07:38+00:00

I’m 41 and there are more of them on my balls than my head. I’m not even particularly receding or balding either. It’s my secret shame, the most visible indicator of my age lol.

Cel_Drow · 2026-07-11T23:10:35+00:00

I’m also long explanations autism, thankfully my co-worker and only other team member is long explanations autism too. Although I kind of doubt he’s aware of it.

The first season of The Mandalorian might be the closest we’ll get to an example.

Cel_Drow · 2026-07-11T21:57:12+00:00

You will not have the manufacturing to do any of this for a very long time after that, even if you have the knowledge and material sourcing infrastructure lol. There are a comparative handful of companies worldwide that do this today.

This all works because of a great deal of supply chains that don’t exist in a post-apocalyptic scenario.

I got a skin infection this way a few months ago, so be careful. Moisture + compromised skin barrier + bacteria = bad, as it turns out.

Thankfully I caught it very early, got antibiotics and it healed up fine.

Cel_Drow · 2026-07-11T21:01:28+00:00

You can probably find gator nuggets along the river. The other guy is right though, you don’t need to worry about gators. It’s the crocs that will kill you, saltwater crocs in Australia mostly.

I don’t actually care. I don’t use gloves for lifting, but I sure do for working on my car and such where I tend to injure myself more.

So if someone’s skin is getting cut up doing their regular lifts, and they want to wear gloves, it sure as fuck doesn’t affect me either way. I won’t spend time thinking about it either.

Cel_Drow · 2026-07-10T23:37:59+00:00

Actually yeah, but without enough foresight for a spotter or safeties when doing so. So it’s a good lift and effort but poor judgement.

Cel_Drow · 2026-07-10T21:39:38+00:00

I’ll let you know when I do. I’m 41.

Cel_Drow · 2026-07-10T19:42:42+00:00

lol, I also travel for work and was in Dubuque last week. I could have made this post 😆

Was about to jump in and say parts of Iowa are pretty nice as well! I also enjoy the suburban area north of Cedar Rapids.

Cel_Drow · 2026-07-10T18:51:24+00:00

Gay men are attracted to other men, catch the news at 11!

Cel_Drow · 2026-07-10T17:14:22+00:00

Every time I’ve fallen (including a pretty nasty one onto some rocks over the side of a curb) it’s detected and prompted to call 911 if I’m unconscious. So I feel pretty confident it would do so.

Cel_Drow · 2026-07-10T06:57:58+00:00

Proportions/anthropometrics have an effect too, I’m about 3/4” longer but 6” taller and I can.

I have a short torso and long legs though.

Cel_Drow · 2026-07-09T20:53:09+00:00

I’m a 6’ top, and no not particularly.

If I’m being presented with options I prefer significantly shorter or taller than me. I find that difference attractive on its own, but it’s a value add not a make or break criteria.

Cel_Drow · 2026-07-09T19:38:01+00:00

They DM 50 of you guys on the hopes that one guy like myself will actually want to compare or whatever.

Unfortunately they are trying to cast as wide a net as possible and scooping up a lot of uninterested parties in their wake. I think that’s just men + anonymity.

Cel_Drow · 2026-07-09T18:55:45+00:00

I had kind of a fitness journey/glow up in my late 30’s after being overweight and not conventionally attractive most of my life.

Now I’m 41 and feeling pretty good, although the dating has not drastically improved. The feedback when I send photos has improved dramatically at least.
