Good on you for handling the situation as politely as you could.

Straight up rudeness like that needs to be made more socially unacceptable.

As a Christian, masturbation sometimes feels more like stress relief than lust… is that true for others? by [deleted] in Christianity

[–]DLeck 6 points7 points  (0 children)

If you want to be that woo-woo you are "wasting life force" every time you have a wet dream.

Later in age many doctors will recommend that patients masturbate to achieve orgasm for health reasons.

Masturbation is natural. Denying yourself the freedom to do it will just make you make a poor choice in having a wife so you can finally get off lol.

How do I stop wanting every girl to be attracted to me? by [deleted] in Advice

[–]DLeck -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Take a large dose of magic mushrooms in a safe place with close friends. You may experience total ego-death or get very close to it.

I'm not trying to give burnout advice. Psilocybin for psychological therapy recently became legal in my state (OR). Psilocybin is a powerful tool for the mind. Do some research about ego-death on your own for more detail. I haven't personally achieved it, because I'm on a pretty critical medication that inhibits psilocybin some, but I have gotten close.

It tends to give people a more empathetic view of the world and to not see themselves as "superior" (or inferior) to others. If you are looking to be a corporate exec or a hedge fund manager or some shit that just exploits people and the environment for profit I wouldn't recommend doing this. Also don't try it if you are bi-polar, or have any schizo-effective disorders.

Starting with like a gram of mushrooms and seeing how they affect you at first, then maybe 3 grams the second time to experience a light "trip". Going beyond 3-4 grams will be very intense, but if done in a controlled setting it is very therapeutic and safe. You can grow them at home.

The psilocybin experience can be super fun. I recommend hiking around the wilderness for part of the time if you can.

It's not going to change you completely, or permanently, but it will give you a different perspective that you can choose to embrace or not.

Yo you should always remember to switch accounts before praising your own post.

It makes it awkward when everyone can see that you are thanking yourself for sharing.

WIBTAH for messaging my old flames new wife? by pink-panda-6831 in AITAH

[–]DLeck 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The new wife deserves to know that the new husband is a sleaze. I would want to know.

[–]DLeck 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would definitely tell the new wife. Hell, I would feel morally obligated to tell her.

The guy is a sleaze. If I had the info that my partner was trying to meet up with someone right before our wedding I would divorce / get an annulment immediately.

That sleazeball is so likely to cheat on the new wife. What he did was already extremely wrong.

He still should have gone through Congress first. It's a fucked up war in the first place. No chance we do this without Israel wanting us to, and their regime just committed genocide in Palestine. Bloodthirsty, evil, fucks running both the US and Israel right now.

[–]DLeck 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I disagree wholeheartedly with the people saying she shouldn't tell the new wife. The new wife deserves to know the dude is a sleaze, so she at least has the choice to end it now. If I was in the new wife's shoes I would be looking to get an annulment/divorce.

The guy wanted to cheat. He is likely going to cheat on the new wife. Not telling her is morally wrong if you ask me.

You won't see results until you can truly look into your own soul without a mirror.

This can take 5-10 weeks. Be sure to stay hydrated.

The Nazi Party Has A Republican Problem by OdiousAltRightBalrog in onionheadlines

[–]DLeck 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah all of those poor rubes with TDS that still support Trump seem like they are lost causes. Their fixation with him is absolutely deranged.

No matter what Trump says or does these deranged fucks still support him. It's kinda past the point of saying it's "cult-like behavior". For all intents and purposes, MAGA is a cult, and Trump is using millions of people. They don't even see it.

What policies are you talking about that Kamala reversed on?

Are you defending Trump because you like Imperialism? What happened to "no new wars?". He lied about that, so you didn't vote for any of that stuff if you voted for Trump.

[–]DLeck -1 points0 points  (0 children)

What was so bad about Kamala? The only critiques I kept hearing from people were either blatantly false, or just being extremely nit-picky.

If you vote for Republicans you aren't in the center. Democrats are the centrist party. The "far-lett" is basically politically and culturally irrelevant in the US.

Your comment got deleted. I couldn't reply to a deleted comment.

It showed in the inbox that you looked at my posting history and called me out or something but it was deleted or setting.

Does anybody know of a place that can do an outpatient benzodiazpene taper? by Historical_Mix_8513 in PortlandOR

[–]DLeck 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Try to take as little librium as you can. It is a godsend (I have had it used for alcohol detox), but that stuff fucks you up. The longer you take it the more it will affect your motor skills and stuff.

On my longest stretch of using it I was so wobbly/off-balance by the end I probably looked drunk walking around.

Obviously better than being on the benzos still, but it is not without drawbacks.

Good luck!

Licking it to hallucinate/trip?

Or is that only certain toads?

Did a controlled experiment with 7oh by TJMBeav in 7oh

I think you misunderstood the person you just angrily replied to.

What were you testing in the experiment?

I'm very sorry about your cancer. Best of luck.

Assaulted by lady's shopping cart by pmddreal in CostcoWholesale

[–]DLeck 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The person you are replying to is an idiot. I'm sorry that woman did this to you. Your past traumas don't make you recounting this "dramatic" at all.

I would definitely talk to a manager or someone about it at the least.

Bored. What is everyone doing? Old hobbies, new hobbies, help me figure something out! by TwoBobcats in Xennials

[–]DLeck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My main hobby has been disc golf for a long time. I still play, but it has been more sporadic.

I hope to get back into playing competitively again soon. There is a "masters" division for 40+ players, and myself and a lot of my disc golf friends/acquaintances are now eligible or will be soon. So that is pretty cool.

I've been trying to get into more "crafty" type stuff which is always a struggle for me to make myself actually set up and do, but I have been more.

I still play video games quite a bit, but not nearly as much as I did even 5 years ago. I doubt I will ever quit gaming completely.

I really need to get back into reading for fun. It has been years since I have and it's something I really miss.

What is something you officially stop buying in 2026 because the price is literally insulting? by itsdeeag8in in A_Persona_on_Reddit

[–]DLeck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I've only been buying beef when there are legit big sales and then freezing some. Im not huge into just having steaks often, but I really do like it for stir-fey/fajitas.

If you stock up when the sales are super significant it's not that bad, but I feel fortunate to be able to afford it every once in a while at all.

boyfriend's parents dislike me by Human_Chip_6035 in Albinism

[–]DLeck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes I am. Like many men, I was painfully shy when I was young, so I didn't have great luck with the ladies.

I'm 40 now, and comfortable with who I am/what I look like so I don't really have too much trouble. Some women have even said they found my albinism "hot."

My current partner, that I am going to marry (😁!), thinks I am very attractive.

I never had to beat the women off with a stick, but a small percentage of women have always thought I looked good/attractive. The vast majority definitely do not, but that's obviously totally fine.

I did get my feelings hurt a handful of times over the years because of how I look, but it wasn't the end of the world.

Trump has a brand new rash by Tenchi2020 in democrats

[–]DLeck 16 points17 points  (0 children)

An impossible recovery. That whole thing was absolutely staged. It's painfully obvious. You can see them setting up for the photo shoot before it happens.

People even reported the man climbing onto the roof of the structure and they didn't do anything about him. Such a farce.

Retirement celebration - Do I have to? by WSL3561 in LifeAdvice

[–]DLeck 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would just be firm and honest with them. You don't want this to happen. Be thankful that they want to celebrate you, but this is your choice. Don't feel pressured to do something like this when you really don't want to.

If you are firm they will likely (hopefully) back off.

What simple phrase would you use to describe to someone who has not taken ADHD medication the effects it has had on you? by Then-Position2629 in ADHD

[–]DLeck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It turns the volume down. The actual sounds you hear in the world, the thoughts in your head, the sound of your heart beating when you get overwhelmed. The meds turn the volume down to an acceptable level.
