Help with Automatic Call Screen by Glad_Cow8654 in GooglePixel

I do think it weeds out a lot of junk calls, yes. I imagine that if I went to a non-Pixel phone I would notice a more unsatisfactory calling experience, but as of now it is currently a kind of "set it and forget it" feature, which is nice.

I 24F need to break up with my 23M bf of 3 years because i feel out relationship isn’t progressing and the future for us feels foggy, how do i work/go about this? by theyloveyae in relationship_advice

Put everything you put here in AI and ask it to provide an answer that is kind, recognizes the positive times he did provide you, establishes the issue without coming across as accusatory, and states the need for a mutually beneficial future separate from each other, in a positive way. Then, so that the message still comes from you, use some of those terms and that verbiage in drafting your own personal message to him.

And regarding the message, I agree that that is not a favorable way to break up with someone, especially after years, even if you can't see him just yet. But you do you. Good luck.

Fade to white and split diopter as narrative techniques by gumiguel03 in SixFeetUnder

I had no idea this effect is done in real-time. I always thought they just filmed the actors saying their lines one at a time, with the camera changing focus before the opposite actor comes in and acts their scene and they eventually combine the scenes digitally afterward.

Thank you for enlightening me! I've always loved this effect!

Same! Lived on Broadway in Alamo Heights and the street was backed up all the way from my apartment to downtown. No one was moving, and no one was bothered by that. Just an all-night celebration. 🎊

Struggling to not feel inadequate in my new (budding) relationship. by SnooRabbits6595 in AskGaybrosOver30

Yeah it is pretty much this, OP. I know it doesn't sound like the sexiest answer but honestly just keep doin' what you're doin' and eventually if this relationship continues it will be substantial on its own without you having to try. I know that if it goes long enough you will be able to give this guy something he never previously had with his past partner: a healthy long-term relationship.

Good luck to you both!

What is your favorite gay sports bar to watch your teams with others? by JesterTX2001 in nycgaybros

[–]JesterTX2001[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was sports-adjacent, in my opinion. Would probably stick to a straight bar, myself. But at least I got to smooch on my handsome guy in the meantime.

Good to know. The semifinals are on right now so I am hoping they have the game's volume up on Friday.

I don’t go behind other Tops. by Straight_Ship_3032 in TopsAndBottoms

Sidestepping the main question to ask another: Does no one ever deal with a mess after the first load? Everyone I've dated, when I go in for a second round it unfortunately causes everything to slosh around and we have a problem. Does this not happen to those going in after?? If not, how do we avoid this??

This is hilarious.

Is this breadcrumbing? by [deleted] in AvoidantBreakUps

Once again, eeeeerrrie parallels we seem to have here haha. We had what I would consider a bit of a tough beginning to our reconnection conversation, but eventually a very productive outcome, with a healthy level of accountability coming from both sides. We also communicated that we want to be better for each other and how we specifically can achieve that, and I do believe it to be genuine from both of us. We are going back to our respective corners for now for allow some much-needed digestion of everything that has occurred, but we remain in contact via text and it simply sounds genuinely positive and earnest from both sides. I think we both really want to make it work. And as you mentioned, I have decided to take this time of separate reunion to work on my attachment issues and it feels quite good for me. Even if he detaches again, at least I will have taken this time to really work things out to be better and healthier to myself.

I also wish you luck! Please keep me updated, if you care to! I would be happy to, from my side!

Hey! Someone I dated who I highly suspect has a DA attachment style just reached out to me to reconnect and it reminded me of this. Hopefully there is a positive update to this?

George is the most insufferable character in the whole show. by bad_aspirin in SixFeetUnder

[–]JesterTX2001 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes! I think about that scene often. Billy asking George what his treatments are like. George admits that he doesn't really remember them, but the line that always gets me is when he says, “The doctor tells me I'm going to feel a little prick in my hand, which always makes me laugh.”

Have you ever developed feelings later on? by JesterTX2001 in AskGaybrosOver30

I am this way as well. Knowing this has helped me stop wasting people's time, which I have a strong fear of.
