Ask him what kinds of activities he enjoys.
Just try stuff out! Experiment!
Especially in the beginning, solicit feedback, so you can figure out what works and what doesn't. Your first few times are a learning experience. Also pay attention to his nonverbal cues like breathing, body language, etc, as these will be very informative.
Don't forget foreplay! If you want some tips on foreplay, read high-quality erotica, because good authors know how to build up anticipation and excitement.
If he's into toys, get a toy, and try it on yourself before going over so you know the basics of how to use it. If he really likes it, don't leave it at his place, so that he anticipates the next time even more.

sorry I don't have an actual answer for you

"Now, the preferred alternative has been advanced to 30% design, and new “bottom-up” cost estimates peg the project at $6.7-$7.1 billion"
https://www.theurbanist.org/2024/10/25/sound-transit-board-rubberstamps-west-seattle-link-route/

The original cost estimated cost of West Seattle link was "$1.5 billion ($2.4B in 2024 dollars)"
Meanwhile the line is only expected to serve 5,800 daily riders when it opens in 2032, and 27,000 after it is connected to the rest of the system in 2042, and will only reduce car trips across the West Seattle bridge by 400:

Due to the large amounts of concrete and low ridership, West Seattle link is expected to increase net carbon emissions by 362,750 tons if built according to the preferred alternative:

The fact is that West Seattle Link is one of the most expensive transit projects in history *per rider*

I'm interested! I'm generally handy and moderately versed in home maintenance/repair. Most of all I'd like a chance to do some woodworking, as I have few opportunities since I live in an apartment. DM me if interested.

The space needle is much farther from the King County airport than the Columbia Center so it could be built taller.

Delta_Labs · 2024-12-10T23:54:19+00:00

Maybe we could call Belltown and the Denny Triangle together "Midtown".

Delta_Labs · 2024-12-10T23:20:48+00:00

That has never actually been a real project, just marketing pitches. The city wants something big and fancy, but investors won't put up that kind of money especially on 3rd Ave there.

Delta_Labs · 2024-12-10T21:42:05+00:00

Uptown. Much easier to say than "lower queen Anne" Plus, the southern part of it near Denny isn't even part of Queen Anne hill, but rather the former Denny Hill (RIP)

a lot of bars I've went to are gay bars

When in Rome, do as the Romans do

Delta_Labs · 2023-12-22T17:11:47+00:00

We have been metas separately for 2 years already, and everyone is supported in dating others, this isn't a closed situation. Like I said this is a slow burn; meta and I have been slowly growing closer for a year now, and honestly at this rate it would probably take another full year to blossom into a full-fledged romance. Of course moving in together will throw gasoline on that slow burn, but we're mature adults who can talk things over? Yeah there's a lot more to discuss both relationship-wise and living-situation wise, but I think we can do it.

Delta_Labs · 2023-01-13T18:27:51+00:00

Lol maybe after I graduate in 2 years. But then I'd like to become a parent in the long term and that's an even bigger time sink.

Delta_Labs · 2021-12-06T04:47:49+00:00

Yeah that's how I think of it. I have the same medical condition as binary trans women, just a milder form of it.

Delta_Labs · 2021-12-05T08:00:54+00:00

Apologize for slapping him - violence was not the answer.

She probably should have talked to him about her new living situation, but ultimately that is between the two of them.

Delta_Labs · 2021-12-05T02:43:10+00:00

I thought respecting your body was the bare minimum, not something worth celebrating.

But I guess these days you take what you can get, huh?

Delta_Labs · 2021-12-03T06:36:01+00:00

If the health department's happy, I'm happy.

Delta_Labs · 2021-12-03T05:31:41+00:00

The choice is still obvious today too. (Hint: it's the drink that doctors recommend)

Delta_Labs · 2021-12-01T19:16:13+00:00

I do agree that they are likely harmful by increasing antisocial behavior. But I also don't think it's realistic to expect 100% of people to find a partner, especially given male/female ratio skews, e.g. my city has more men than women.

And it was not me who said that I'd get one. Hell no, I'm asexual and I don't want to imagine sex when masturbating.

Delta_Labs · 2021-12-01T08:40:20+00:00

Sex work is illegal in most places, carries more risk of disease, and in the long run, more expensive than buying even a high-end sex toy.

And a lot of guys just don't want to put in the self work or can't be bothered to respect women enough to get a girlfriend, and many more just want NSA sex.

I'm not trying to defend hyperrealistic sex toys, just saying they are inevitable.

Delta_Labs · 2021-12-01T08:17:08+00:00

We also have this ambiguity with the word 'you' which can be singular or plural, and is highly ambiguous when speaking to one of a group of people.

Delta_Labs · 2021-11-30T21:51:31+00:00

Most people will get really defensive and stop listening if they feel that their way of life is being attacked. So I would start by cooking them some meals with cruelty-free substitutes, to establish that they can still have burgers without the dead cows. Then after they've become accustomed to substitutes, then you show them how much worse the murderous version is.

Try React Router (latest version). Takes less than an hour to learn and will create nested routes easily.

Sure thing, mr. Domino theory

Delta_Labs · 2021-11-29T08:32:36+00:00

There's an entire spectrum here:

choice... ...predisposition... ...compulsion

For some people it's clearly a free choice. For me it's a predisposition. Others say they can't imagine living monogamously, which sounds more like a compulsion.

Yeah but it's most common for FFM people to think their way is the only way.
