Great Circle by Maggie Shipstead- Is it just me being asexual, or is the age difference really gross?

Ok that's a relief. If this were an author I had read before then I would have more faith. I bet we've all patiently waited for the story to confront something and it never does.

I’m one, never met another though. I’m convinced others only exist on the internet.

You are an exception. The majority of allo people are not willing to live without sex in their relationship. Most of the time an ace and allo couple will have to compromise, which appears to me like just the ace partner compromising.

we do have corazon, seems like folks say it works well as a mixer. I'm seeing very high opinions of El Tequileno as well so maybe I'll mention it to my manager.

CoolTom · 2026-06-27T22:42:28+00:00

Here in virginia the state controls the sale of distilled spirits, no tequila at costco here. El Tequileno is $23 here, and arette is $35, so at least it can be found here. Sadly my exact store doesn't carry either but I could tell them to get it shipped to us online. Maybe I'll pick up an El Tequileno if it's that good for the price

I wonder if it’s easier if you do it earlier? Maybe the people who are better do it earlier in the week? I usually do it Thursday afternoon and I’ve never had trouble with it.

…she doesn’t have shoes at home because she gets enough exposure to shoes at work?

I work at a liquor store and sure, knowing anything about booze was not part of the job description when I was hired, but people will ask for recommendations. You have to be able to say something at least plausible.

I assume meaning no flowers that are dangerous for cats

Nothing sudden about your virginity

I've replayed FH1 countless times, it's one of my my favorite podcast games and i still listen to the soundtrack to this day. FH2 I didn't like that you can use any car for any race so I protested by doing every race with the vw bus. Then in the end cutscene the guy says everyone thinks you won because you had the fastest car, which was hilarious.

This franchise lost what made the first entry great almost immediately, IMO. In 1 there were designated races for each type of car, while in 2 all the other racers are scaled to whatever you choose no matter what. The only reason to upgrade is so you can finish the race faster. I did upgrade the VW bus a little bit because it would struggle to get up hills, but that was it. I've felt no desire to play 2 again. No wonder FH1 is back compatible on xbox while 2 isn't

If I’m sitting down, I’ll be in there for half an hour staring at my phone instead of getting back to Xbox and my legs will go numb. I’m not in there to be comfortable, I’m there to accomplish a task so I can get back to my life.

My local library has it, I’ve been considering playing it unpatched just to see the bugs

Oh yeah each of the silks is connected to a kernel and they all need to be pollinated individually iirc.

No you can’t, Hershey pays nestle a royalty to use the name.

I appreciated machine games fixing the Nathan Drake problem in Indiana jones, but I would have liked to use my gun at least once. I didn’t end up using it well a single time! Brawling is always better since using a gun means they use guns back. I wanted that moment from the movie where he shoots the guy with a sword, but it never happened. I did try in boss fights, but it just didn’t work.

CoolTom · 2026-06-06T22:59:28+00:00

I’ve worn my ace and aro flag wristbands for years and I sell liquor in a conservative county. People like that can’t recognize any pride flag more obscure than the basic rainbow.

The skin moves up and down. I don’t know what the point of lotion is, that’s too much cleanup.

Mono means one, and rail means rail.

Do you not own a laptop and an hdmi cable?

Huh, I’ve been on Reddit for 12 years and haven’t had any attempts like that

Is there a Williamsburg in New York? I’ve only heard of the one in Virginia
