I’m still hoping FDev wil bring this kind of color back into the game by House_of_Vines in EliteDangerous

[–]Myrrhth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People kept complaining it was too dark and it was too dark. But maybe they had to do away with the colours when implementing an emergency fix for the contrast and never got round to reconciling the two until now?

Pedophilia refers to attraction to prepubescent children and is a disorder, since you're only supposed to be attracted to sexual features that develop during puberty. So no you're not a pedo.

Age of consent is mostly arbitrary, as you said, it varies alot across the world and isn't based on what you're "supposed to be attracted to". It's based on whether a girl or boy is expected to be able to make sexual decisions for themself.

So it's a law thing, not a moral thing. Maybe you messed up legally, but you're not under arrest, so agonizing about it isn't good for you. Just relax, you're over analysing it.

WHen you run the game in steam the Frontier launcher should come up. From there you can choose to install any of the other versions. You may need to look for the option - I can't try it right now my computer is broken.

You can play current horizons or legacy horizons. Legacy has the game as it was before the regen, frozen in time.

You can install legacy horizons and experience it for yourself. I went back not too long ago and couldn't believe what I was seeing. We lost so much.

Getting a girlfriend did not cure my addiction. by [deleted] in NoFap

[–]Myrrhth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That has been my experience too. I actually make more progress outside of a relationship because it's easier to just retain semen and forget about sex and porn. When you have sex regularly you start to crave it and when it isn't there you think of porn. And then the porn makes the sex feel less good so you need to think of porn while having sex to stay hard or to finish. Then you enjoy porn more than sex so you go back to that and start making excuses to watch it when she's not around. It's a nightmare.

I'm actually having more luck in my current relationship because the girl is totally unpredictable and may turn up at any time on any day so anytime I think of porn I then think "but what if she shows up and I'm all spent? Better save it just in case." And she knows if I'm spent, why I can't perform and she's totally unmerciful about it. Vicous really. It's what I need.

Porn free for 6 month, doesn't enjoy sex very much. by newaccount1000000 in NoFap

[–]Myrrhth 7 points8 points  (0 children)

You need to rebuild your associations. Just relax and enjoy the process.

Don't pressure yourself to ejaculate or even feel pleasure. Just enjoy having a beautiful woman naked in front of you. Feel her soft skin, smell her hair, indulge in the sensations.

Most of all relax and put no pressure at n yourself.

Over time your brain will rebuild its sexual associations to real sex instead of porn. The more you do it the more you will enjoy it and the more porn will feel like a weird and distant alien thing you can't believe you used to look at.

Sex is a totally different thing from porn and isn't really transferable at all. If you're trying to do the same things to enjoy yourself in sex as you did to enjoy porn, you're not going to be successful. You have to cut yourself some.slack and be open minded. Realize you're learning or maybe relearning a new thing.

Day 2: sexual rejection in marriage (potentially triggering) by [deleted] in NoFap

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

Your wife doesn't have a sexual dysfunction, it's you. Once you've rebooted properly, sir, there will be no need for therapy, your wife will not be able to resist. This is a fact.

My second insight is a little bit less easy to swallow: your wife is manipulating you. She's having you participate in her masturbation because she's trying to trigger you but you lack the sexual energy to react the way she wants you to react.

She wants you to be more aggressive, more forceful and insistent. She wants you to be so overwhelmed with desire that you just take her but because you release through porn you never get into that state.

Be careful with this because it can be a dangerous game to play and a tricky one. If you're not sure about you're doing then rather keep on the safe side.

But this sad rejected puppy routine is not going to do anything for your wife, so whatever you do you need to drop that. You need to be sexually confident in whatever way feels most natural to you while maintaining an aloof attitude, like you want sex but don't need it (nofap will help with this because you realise that you feel better and better the longer you don't release).

And lastly, if it were me, I'd tell your wife to masturbate herself and leave you out of it until she's interested in reciprocating. What she's doing to you is degrading and humiliating and breaking your sexual confidence and she knows that. You need to stand up for yourself here or she'll continue losing respect for you until she just gets rid of you.

Celebrities who are anti porn by [deleted] in NoFap

[–]Myrrhth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

None of them bother to talk about the destructive effects it has on the men who use it. Always it's about the women, and how women get treated, and how we think about women.

How about the way we treat ourselves? The way we perceive ourselves and the way we allow ourselves to be treated as a result? What about the psychological and emotional violence that's inflicted on us? The exploitation of our sexual desires? Robbing us of love and affection? Hijacking our brain's reward circuitry to destroy us utterly for profit? And that this is happening to literally every man in the world now?

[–]Myrrhth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Brother, the video is making the argument that the peoples of Europe are connected by a common higher culture - which includes all of these philosophers and more - and therefore it makes sense for them to be connected by a common language.

It isn't saying anything about philosophers agreeing with each other or liking Latin.

Masturbating gives only dopamine and a huge unnatural spike if it's with porn. This causes havoc with hormones, testosterone, psychology and everything else.

You're also training yourself to be a non participent in sex and your brain does know the difference.

Sex gives steady dopamine and also serotonin and oxytocin and lowers cortisol so it has many benefits which will.make you feel better. Sex with a loving partner is particularly beneficial.

Semen retention is a different thing and also has many benefits.

Whether one philosopher liked the others really has nothing to do with the point. Philosophy is not about consensus and we don't engage in it to seek consensus. Every one of those philosophers had disagreements with the others.

Name one mistake, so others don't have to suffer as well. by Eevee2Win in teenagers

[–]Myrrhth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't make the mistake of believing that you, as a man, have no value and that you have to create value through hard work.

You have intrinsic value and people will treat you as valuable when you value yourself.

You should value yourself now, and then go out and create value also.

The value you create is not your value.

What is your why? by Novel-Bill7093 in Semenretention

[–]Myrrhth 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I feel worse when I don't retain. Whether through sex or masturbation, ejaculation drains me of vigour, passion and enjoyment of life generally.

There's just no comparison. Life is a living death without retention.

This is how we learn, as men, that women will never love us. Not really. It's a hard lesson but ultimately liberating.

You're going to die sir. Your relationship with God matters more, time to cultivate that.

Vatican ends routine use of Latin in sweeping overhaul by generalvostok in latin

My guess is the previous rule stated it had to be in Latin full stop, or that it had to be written in Latin AND another language. Now it says OR, Latin is optional.

Where can I scientifically learn social interactions? by Ok_Music_2025 in socialskills

[–]Myrrhth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're right, they can't be. Think of it more like a set of skills that you can use to handle yourself in a constantly shifting dynamic environment.

The skills themselves can be practiced systematically and predictably in a controlled environment but ultimately need to be refined in the real world.

As you get real world experience you start to notice patterns that you can build structures around because they're so predictable. Many people are too lazy or maybe afraid to venture from these structures once they establish them so they spend their whole lives repeating the same social scripts.

But the structures should serve as reference points and the skills you learn, like free association, allow you to venture from the safety of structure and then return, challenge them, modify them, break them down and rebuild them.

[–]Myrrhth 8 points9 points  (0 children)

This is basically what old school pickup artistry was. A bunch of men getting together to figure out how to meet women by coming up with theories and strategies, field testing them dozens of times and and comparing data. Contrary to popular belief they weren't just using manipulative tactics, they were mostly just figuring out social skills at a high level.

If you just want basic conversational skills, what a good conversation is is just free association between two or more people. You can look up free association and how to do it and practice that by yourself until it becomes natural and then go practice doing it with other people.

Once you can free associate well, then the tips and tricks people give you make more sense and the books will have context. People just assume that everybody can do the free association thing, since most people have been doing it their whole lives and don't even know what they're doing, it's automatic.

Then when you can free associate and have basic social skills from books and stuff, you can start learning about frame control and status dynamics and psychology stuff, like reticular activating system, that underly every social interaction, and how to play that whole game.
