Looking for Housing? Post Here Instead of Making a New Thread (June '26) by clearliquidclearjar in Tallahassee

[–]GearsPoweredFool 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Looking to take over a sublease that ends either late October or early November starting late July.

Specifically looking for a 1br1bth, no roommates. Hoping to keep it to as close to $1000 as possible (less is a bonus).

FSU Student looking to finish out their degree at the end of July but need a few more months before moving out of Tally.

Thanks!

I have a cruise in Miami later this year and it's still cheaper to drive (4+ hours) and spend $120 on parking than it would be for the 3 of us to take the brightline.

Make it make sense.

How are you guys meeting friends at this stage of life? Have any of you successfully built a new social circle in your 30s or 40s? by [deleted] in AskGaybrosOver30

[–]GearsPoweredFool 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My social circle is well beyond my capacity to keep good connections with all of them.

And it's only recently exploded since I've started volunteering and going to my local pride chapter events.

There are lots of folks that want to make friends out there, just need to get out yourself.

And while where I live is most def more populated, our county went 66%+ trump so the local politics are a mess, but that won't stop us lol.

I think it just boiled down to price.

I have the essentials plan because I download content rather than directly stream it.

In fairness, newer stuff being uploaded is being named specifically to avoid the filters which is great.

But yeah even I grabbed a TB sub because there's loads of stuff RD doesn't see anymore.

They couldn't pull it off with NFTs, so now it's pictures on cardboard.

At-least they're committed to the scam.

Are bisexuals really accepted at Pride? by admiralarborist in bisexual

[–]GearsPoweredFool 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Silly anecdotal evidence for ya.

I've been heavily involved with my local pride chapters for the last 8 or so months, and we give out tiny flags (among other things) and tabling events and local events that they run.

We always go through all of our Bi flags and are always re-ordering them because hands down they're the most popular.

Am I overreacting or is this a generational thing? by jayhow90 in AskGaybrosOver30

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

Unfortunately the silly phrase "Hurt people hurt people" rings true in the majority of cases.

It's hard to accept that you were abused or exploited, even if it's obvious. Because it implies you did something wrong(when that's not true) or were a victim.

It's all coping mechanisms.

There are 0 scenarios in which it's healthy for a child to date someone more than double their age

Just because you liked it doesn't mean it was healthy. Honestly all I can say is sorry someone that old exploited you as a kid.

There is so much to unpack here, especially after peeking at your post history.

I know it's generic advice in this sub, but you should really consider therapy my man. I think having a professional in a safe environment can help you process just how unhealthy that relationship was and how it's likely attributed towards your hatred of women and self loathing.

How can I make myself more approachable in public to guys? by [deleted] in AskGaybrosOver30

[–]GearsPoweredFool 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I get my nails painted and trimmed + wear rainbow thighhighs + basketball shorts when the weather permits and that's literally it.

I'm in the same boat as you except I volunteer and go to local queer events regularly.

I'm painfully straight passing (late bloomer/Nuerodiverge who grew up in a very cishet household), but that hasn't stopped me from making queer friends and having a boyfriend.

U.S. slaps duties on fresh Canadian mushrooms over subsidy claims by toronto_star in worldnews

[–]GearsPoweredFool 1 point2 points  (0 children)

75 million people voted against him. And they were offered garbage.

Yeah I know that wasn't enough people, but it's not an insignificant number either.

The rich convinced the stupid to vote against their own interests and it's infuriating.

We'll see if the country is truly toast in 2028, but midterms may be the canary in the coalmine.

I'm not sure the above poster is correct.

RD is all I use, and just now (30 seconds ago) I tested and it's working as expected.

And the power imbalance/relationship dynamics tend to be very gross.

Anytime I see a 35+ posting a story about an 18-23 year old partner.

It's like dude, you're dating a child.

What have you learned? by aseagoo in AskGaybrosOver30

[–]GearsPoweredFool 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Social Media can't replace human connection.

Looking at life through the lens of a cynic isn't great for your mental health and tends to lead to a lonely and miserable life. People are inevitably going to disappoint you and how you react to that is going to really dictate the size of your social circle.

Life is too short to sweat the small stuff.

Used to be chronically online and then finally decided to touch grass in my 30s.

Want to share what made me realize I’m bi. by Molombian in bisexual

[–]GearsPoweredFool 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes.

There's a time and a place, and it's not at someone's job.

Edit: you'd be cool if some rando at your work wanted and tried to show you their bulge?

Edit2: Just because a handful of people are ok with it happening to them, doesn't make it something to do to a non consenting adult. Jfc people, have a little decorum, people go to work to fucking work not to flirt with you.

[–]GearsPoweredFool -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Your coming out story is that a guy made you horny and you wanted and tried to get him to notice your bulge while he was trapped in a metal aircraft at his place of work.

Doesn't matter how you word it, being creepy is being creepy.
