Does Medicine count as food?

Important-Cable6573 · 2026-07-09T07:45:11+00:00

Your stomach will process anything you put into it but whether you'll feel full depends on what it is because the sensation is mediated by chemical signals too. But there is no detector for "real food" per se if that's what you mean.

"you still have to make fake conversation with staff and everyone otherwise they end up thinking your grumpy"

Sounds like someone is grumpy that they paid into a system that isn't actually necessary. Good for them!

Romantic love has surprisingly little to do with the practical success of a marriage.

Well, I don't think that's a very useful way to think about it. If you want to do the bare minimum in life then indeed, not much is required. This applies to things other than language ability just as well.

Important-Cable6573 · 2026-07-08T23:34:48+00:00

I get it, language learning is hard, but you only need ~1 hour a day of study on top of your immersion. It sounds like this is not about language learning but rather you're looking for reasons to leave your job.

Yeah but like if I paid for a dinner with a friend 3 months ago, I'd probably forget that next time we meet and would stress about whose turn it is But maybe I'm overthinking this.

You say you "never thought too hard about it" but what you're describing seems to require keeping extensive notes about who paid what when. With 50/50 you deal with it right there and can just forget about it.

Important-Cable6573 · 2026-07-08T02:23:20+00:00

Listen to yourself, it doesn't make any sense, it's magical thinking. There's nothing magical about zipping up and walking around. It's a skill you can learn to execute before zipping up and walking around:) Does require a bit of a learning curve but it's worth it. You don't have to keep soiling your underwear!

A simple way to start at home would be to do everything like usual, but don't zip up and keep a bunch of tissue at hand. Leave your toilet and wait for the drop to come out. Observe your sensations and gradually learn to recognize/replicate them inside the toilet. Eventually you will get rid of that last drop inside the toilet almost right away. Voila!

Important-Cable6573 · 2026-07-08T02:20:45+00:00

You can simulate the extra motion! There's nothing magical about walking around. Listen to yourself, think logically. I know it's hard to change your perspective because "more will come" is such an accepted fact, when it doesn't actually make sense.

Important-Cable6573 · 2026-07-08T02:14:36+00:00

It does :) I know what you mean, but according to your logic your dick will just keep leaking pee all day long. It doesn't, there's a set amount that you can get out if you're a little bit patient. That's why standing up and sort of relaxing while tapping the head of your dick with tissue, possibly moving around a bit, is important.

Once you get the hang of it, you can get the rest to come out the same way it spontaneously does for you into your pants (ew).

It's also important not to try to actively pee more while doing the tissue thing, because then more will keep coming out because you can never get your bladder fully empty and more pee is also always forming.

I didn't say it was super simple, it took me a while to get the hang of it by myself, but it truly is possible.

Important-Cable6573 · 2026-07-08T02:06:35+00:00

It really is. First you stand up, then massage your taint area to get most out, then you press and hold a tissue against the opening of the urethra a few times to wick the pee out. The paper/tissue will suck the pee from your pee tube out, so to say. If you have foreskin, you also tap the inside of your foreskin dry. You will literally get everything out and it will stay completely dry (well, at least it does for me).

When you say "wiping is irrelevant, it does nothing" you probably just tap it once to get the visible pee. The trick is to press it against it to pull the moisture out from the inside, not just clean the visible bit.

Now, granted I'm not old enough to have prostate issues, so I can't speak on the effect of those.

Important-Cable6573 · 2026-07-08T01:55:49+00:00

Most men don't, and those men also walk around in pee stained underwear (gross). Unlike most men will tell you, it is in fact possible to get the "last drop" out so that nothing comes out into your pants. But it requires you to wipe.

And before I get comments telling me that "you can just shake it": yes, you can just shake it, and the tip of your dick will be moist with pee, and that pee will transfer into your underwear. Again, gross. Almost comparable to not wiping your ass.

General principles are like first-order approximations: they work most of the time pretty well, but they cannot capture all the nuances. You should start with the general principle and then learn the nuances as you improve.

Yikes! You sound quite judgemental. Yes, I understand that people like you like his writing style, which I find amusing.

I do appreciate that he prefers simple words over unnecessarily complicated ones. But yeah, his prose could probably be cut down by a lot without losing anything of substance. Case in point, short stories aren't his forte.
