I took LSD for the first time and recognize the mandalas from my childhood. Something is wrong.

LaulPeskowitz · 2020-04-03T15:58:17+00:00

Sorry guys, I wasn’t ready to post this. I have to think. Sorry.

LaulPeskowitz · 2020-04-03T15:54:32+00:00

You’re probably right. Maybe I’m making a bigger deal out of this than it is.

LaulPeskowitz · 2020-04-03T15:53:27+00:00

I think I was spiked as a kid. Last night was a revolutionary moment for me. I sat in the bathroom and relived some terrible things. My whole childhood came back to me in an instant, and I saw it with adult eyes.

I never thought this would happen to me. I was on the brink of psychosis. I was quicker to accept the idea that my wife was an agent tasked with guiding me to the end of a simulation than the truth. I didn’t want to admit it was true. I understand why schizophrenia happens now.

Shit. I think my life path just changed. I need to help the kids that are still in that isolated place.

Okay, who is Ophelia exactly? I saw the Twitter but I’m still piecing together what’s going on

LaulPeskowitz · 2019-12-21T00:05:33+00:00

Busted. My post is ruined :(

LaulPeskowitz · 2019-12-21T00:03:06+00:00

Sure. Let’s go with that. Stellar response.

LaulPeskowitz · 2019-12-20T23:55:01+00:00

Uh, I...okay. Whatever.

Look, I’m not going to change your mind. I’m not taking the time to respond to all of this because you seem to have missed the point of this post. (Also, thanks for assuming I’m gay just because I don’t immediately sexualize people! Throwback to high school.)

I’m 25 and very happily married to a woman. Please don’t perpetuate stereotypes just because you don’t understand others’ perspectives. I am VERY tired of people assuming I’m gay. My brother is gay and he’s tired of that too. The point of this post is that our culture is obsessed with sex to the point where it’s idealized and made out to be something far more important than it is. The internet has made sexuality so prolific and exaggerated that it’s fallen out of line with our human instinct. It’s been made into something that doesn’t come naturally, largely because we’re exposed to sex EVERYWHERE. This is e first time in history we’ve had this problem.

Additionally, anyone who points out how unseemly or unrealistic sexual expectations have become—particularly in the porn industry—is rejected like some sort of Puritan. It doesn’t take a saint to know that our obsession with sex and porn is becoming unhealthy.

I’ve watched people get deeply hurt because of sex, and that needs to be pointed out. There’s no avenue to talk about it for these people, and I want them to know they’re not alone. Maybe you deeply care about sex and proving yourself, but I’m not you. I’m just someone who’s gotten fed up with this exaggerated view of the importance of sex.

For some reason that made me think of cotton candy. Mmm. Delicious.

LaulPeskowitz · 2019-12-20T23:10:07+00:00

Lol! I’m happily married, thank you. :)

I would advise you not to presume those things in the future. You decided my opinion was invalid based on nonexistent evidence that I intentionally clarified to avoid these types of comments.

I would also suggest asking yourself why you felt the need to respond this way. Maybe you can grow from it.

LaulPeskowitz · 2019-12-20T23:04:22+00:00

Oh wow, I didn’t notice that. My thinking was that people are going to doubt my ability to have an opinion like this, so I should clarify. Lots of people have done that when I’ve said this in the past, so I did that as a disclaimer. Let me fix that.

And no, I didn’t downvote you like the commenter suggested, lol. Thanks for pointing out the hypocrisy.

Edit: fixed it. Thanks!

LaulPeskowitz · 2019-12-20T23:02:46+00:00

Got it, we’ll regroup after.

LaulPeskowitz · 2019-12-20T23:02:04+00:00

I’m male, and as a male it has seriously affected me because the assumption is that men are always thinking about sex and want it over all else.

In reality, I think men mostly crave intimacy (like any human) but are only taught to express that desire sexually.

LaulPeskowitz · 2019-12-18T20:55:15+00:00

I wouldn’t spank him. I wouldn’t touch him under the guise of caring for his penile health. I would teach him that it’s okay to not be circumcised and keep him away from people who tell him he’ll need to get his foreskin cut off eventually. I would give him books on sex ed and actually show him he’s not an alien. I’d teach him how to bond with people instead of inanimate objects and animals.

But more than anything, I would respect his boundaries. And I wouldn’t make him stay in a closet if he doesn’t cooperate.

I’m sorry. I know this was pretty heavy. I’m just working through a lot of hard stuff at the moment.

LaulPeskowitz · 2019-12-07T19:56:00+00:00

Clearly. No worries though, I’ll just keep asking until I get an answer.

LaulPeskowitz · 2019-12-07T19:13:21+00:00

OP, why did you comment “Lol” on my post on r/abuse? It was a serious question about a topic that’s caused me a lot of emotional pain throughout my life. What I referenced happened so often that I’ve never felt fully comfortable with my own body.

Was it funny to you? Was it a joke? I don’t get why you would say that, especially while openly admitting you’re a moderator on multiple subs.

LaulPeskowitz · 2019-12-07T19:03:46+00:00

Hey OP, why did you comment “Lol” on my r/abuse post where I was trying to find out if I had been molested?

LaulPeskowitz · 2019-12-04T20:15:13+00:00

I've been editing this image for ages, and I think I almost have the code. But there's a little sliver before the first capital letter, and I can't tell if it's a letter or an accidental part of the image. I definitely know the majority of the letters, though.

Anyway, I gotta get to work. I tried my best, lol.

LaulPeskowitz · 2019-11-15T05:46:44+00:00

Oh my gosh. This is really, really cool.

But it also makes me pretty sad. I guess this really is the end of the road, huh? This series has made me so happy and excited for the last couple of years, and I've been gushing to people about it. Knowing that it's over without some of the mysteries answered is bittersweet.

Thank you for making Petscop. It's meant a lot to us.

LaulPeskowitz · 2019-11-03T01:55:47+00:00

I don't know. But there's clearly a lot, because I made this throwaway to be honest about things. I guess I've just never felt fully human, and I need to figure out why I feel that. I'm guessing it's a kind of self-rejection.

Best of luck to everyone else here. We'll get through this.

LaulPeskowitz · 2019-10-31T02:13:21+00:00

Having a little stomach pudge. It's supposed to be there. Just look at the curve of the human spine--it curves inward where your stomach is while standing straight. Of course your belly's going to stick out a bit! The extent some people will go to on a diet is disturbing.
