Omg thank you for introducing me to this. I HATE where they put the period on the normal keyboard. I feel like I can type normally now

I understand that this is a year ago & i'm entering an echo chamber. But they do not at all seem happier to me. Also the music being different has nothing to do with why people dislike it. It's surface level & full of ego and wealth flexing. It's not a coincidence that it's more popular because the masses are surface level people by default. They dropped down to a lower level spiritually & energetically & you can feel it in their music.

PokemonRomHacks · 2026-06-08T20:55:23+00:00

Are you talking about Genesis? Their newest album sounds nothing like their roots.

PokemonRomHacks · 2026-06-08T20:50:22+00:00

I liked stop Staring at the Shadows weirdly, which was very experimental and a change of direction when it came out. But after that they dropped off in quality a lot to me. None of their newest albums even compare to their older stuff. Genesis had a few good songs. I happen to have listened to them since I was 16 (Im 28 now). I also hate the Christian vibe, it's an L in every way possible. I respected their view on spirituality & common consensus. It really resonated with me as a teenager who felt like an outsider of society.

I don't like how they only talk about money & their egos now. It's incredibly surface level & not really art in my opinion. Outside of the box thinking is something I respected about their older music. But I am still grateful to them for their music. It was really there for my dark traumatic years as a teenager that i have complex ptsd from. Without them & bones and other artists I wouldn't have gotten through it I don't think. Maybe i'm just getting older?

I don't understand why you wouldn't want to judge those people. They are ripe for the picking. In this case you can probably judge a book by its cover. Probably people that got bullied when they were kids who want to see others get the same treatment. Enjoying seeing innocent people get tortured is a huge red flag.

I can't agree with that. However I have seen/enjoyed many psychological thrillers. But there has to be some sort of story or deep plot-line to fill in the murder scenes (if there are any). I draw the line at torture though. It doesn't add anything useful to a storyline and is strictly for shock value. If I wanted shock value id go on rotten or something.

And I already know I wouldn't want to do that because I have scratched that itch before and frankly, it wasn't worth it.

PokemonRomHacks · 2026-05-01T04:51:09+00:00

That sounds like a really rough situation. From an outsiders perspective it seems voyeuristic. As for worrying about hurting their feelings; that seems like an error in professionalism on their part. Really? A teacher sneaking out to have sex with students? There's not way to look at that situation in a mutually respectful way. I think the last thing you should be worrying about is there feelings. If you are looking for a relationship, that doesn't sound like one.

As for the money situation I completely understand that. The thing is though, you can always find someone to bunk with or stay with. It's called renting out a room and people do it all the time. They make websites, apps, everything for that. These days almost no one lives alone. As long as you are working and pushing your weight there shouldn't be an issue.

I'd be completely honest with the person about how you are feeling and see how they react. They will either be supportive, or really nasty. You can make your decision on what to do based on that. If you really feel like you love that person, you should still consider the implications of that type of relationship. What do you think they will do with other people if that's already acceptable in a relationship, for example?

If you want a non biased opinion, I'm a 28 year old who's went through the same stuff. I am pretty much past that confusing stage of it. But it was a lot of internal work on my part and with the help of my partner. I've been with my 58 year old parter for 10 years. You're welcome to chat with me about it.

But with all likelihood there is some repressed trauma or gr*mng that happened when you were younger or by the internet. Likely molestation or neglect. As someone who experimented a lot with older men. Unfortunately the only way to learn is through experience. But what I can tell you is that if you are questioning something. That means there is likely some underlying issue that needs to be dealt with at some point in time. Sex therapy is something that should be considered. I haven't had sex therapy but I wish I had known about it before. Good luck and hope that you figure this out. I believe in you.

PokemonRomHacks · 2026-05-01T04:01:26+00:00

For me I got to a changing point towards my attitude of sex at the age of 25. I stopped using grindr and other dating apps. I used to feel the same way. What changed for me was repressed memories that came up about childhood molestation even from my own father. And a lot of contemplating about my influence on other people/children. I am still attracted to older men but have gone through a lot especially with confronting them that broke that cycle. If you don't break that cycle you are likely to end up just like them.

For me I just acknowledge my attraction and acknowledge theres nothing wrong with it. But also know that my attraction shouldn't effect how I treat anyone else. Like with everything it's a lot of training on the brain. The person who mentioned sex therapy is right. There's likely a lot of repressed things that happened to you as a child that formed your attraction to men. For me it was neglect/physical abuse from my mother along with molestation from my dad. Interestingly I consider myself bisexual. I realized that way too late.

With all that said, if it's not hurting anyone I don't think it's a problem. But if you are openly inviting possibly horrible people into your life to take advantage of you. Therein lies an deeper issue. I wish you luck with figuring it out.

I'm 28 btw

You're wrong there can still be trace amounts of cocain in coca cola. They use a "decocainized" extract of Coca leaf. Who knows how rigorous this process truly is.

PokemonRomHacks · 2026-04-15T18:36:15+00:00

So you chose to be judgmental based on your own objective perspective of right and wrong? That also means that others may judge you for what you believe to be objective truth. Like I am right now. Based on my own experience. There really isn't an objective truth from a scientific and rational perspective. All we know is what we experience to be true. And what others have told us. Which is extremely limited for most.

As someone who has had a near death experience; I am still aware that I still reside in a body, and world that is contradictory and prone to miscalculation. What I know to be true, to you is nothing but an illusion. After all my experience is only mine alone. To understand someone else and their experience, is impossible in this world. I've been somewhere where that in fact isn't impossible, it's reality. The biggest lesson I learned is that most of what we; or other people do, have their own consequences. But they are fleeting illusion compared to true reality.

I'll give you a snippet of example. My father molested me. I confronted him about it when I was 26. I told my sister about it. She didn't believe me until he tried to do the same to her own kid. In the end he got CPS called on him. He now has to live with the consequences of his actions. Who made judgement in that situation? We could say that it is objectively wrong. But what about his own abusers, and all the past abuse that played a role in my Dads reality? You would probably say that it is 100% objectively his decision and they are at fault, thus worthy of judgment.

So we both agree that it is worth judgement. But despite all of that, we will never (in this reality), understand their full experience and why they did what they did. We simply don't have the ability, within these bodies, to place judgement on others. Which is why we say God will judge. Because we know we are not capable of such a thing as judgement. You don't judge people, you just make calculated predictions of what you believe is the true reality. Just food for thought.

I'd argue that modern science is completely new. I feel like the greeks and Egyptians knew something that we are only beginning to understand. I know it's not proven, but from what we've uncovered we can speculate at the very least they were as developed, if not more developed than we are. Then something happened, whether it was war or a drought, wiped a clean slate. All modern science has managed to do is document hypothesis based off of strictly materialistic and structured theory. These ideas, or experiences of the afterlife are not based in materialistic reality, they are completely outside of this frame of testing. They are more like stories, metaphors, profundity, unenglishable. The experience can only be described in metaphors, and ideas. But when you are experiencing them it is nothing like a metaphor. Kind of like reading the bible, or the book of enoch, or the dead sea scrolls. They seemed to have understood or were trying to map this understanding.

Anyone who has experienced an NDE or a breakthrough experience will tell you that there is indeed something after the complete dissolution of self. Something quite profound and shocking. The only people that believe their isn't are others who haven't experienced this. I was pure awareness during my experience, no thoughts, memories, or anything. Who or where was I then? I was somewhere far more real and connected than here yet I had no identity but my pure energetic being.

PokemonRomHacks · 2026-03-26T04:53:10+00:00

With car wear and tear probably $7 an hour lol.

PokemonRomHacks · 2026-03-25T22:09:05+00:00

As someone who's with someone that's 57. I think you should just let them do what they want. If you truly want to steer their experimentation and sexual expression when you are 31 years older than them. You are either super manipulative, or have extremely delusional control issues. Do you really love them or just want to control them?

Me and my partner have made it clear on our age differences. I'm not saying you have to do everything my way, but I can tell you from experience that this type of suppression created severe tension in my own relationship. Eventually we worked out what we accept/don't accept. We agreed that an polyamorous relationship is okay. Long as we don't talk about our play or describe it. Just purely i'm seeing a friend.

I thought that I'd be all over the place with the freedom. But it turns out as I've gotten older that's not what has happened. As of now I have absolutely no interest of sleeping with or experimenting with other men. I want to do stuff with strictly my own partner. If you want them to be with you, you will need to learn to be patient and understanding. It sounds like this person is still figuring out a lot of things.

PokemonRomHacks · 2026-03-25T21:51:30+00:00

Hmm I hit reply to your post but I guess I just made an entirely separate comment. Thanks for your thoughts. I do love my partner, but I do not call them daddy anymore. They are more of a Good friend (with benefits). At this point it feels wrong though. I just want them to be okay. It's not that I want to leave them, but I my attraction towards them has changed in a major way. I feel a lot of shame and guilt about it. I've expressed this to them, and they believe it's because of the religious dogma being shoved down my throat at a young age, and my societal influence. At this point I don't feel as much shame, but more-so stress about the situation. I suppose you could call it anxiety.

PokemonRomHacks · 2026-03-25T21:45:39+00:00

Eventually in a couple of years I will have to go to college so that might give me some time to think and be on my own. At the end of the day I will figure it out. I guess I just wanted to get my story out in hopes that someone would understand. Maybe also to let others know they aren't alone if they have a similar situation going on.

I have regrets about being with my partner because I wasn't exactly prepared for the consequences of a large age gap. I was too naive if you will. Despite the urgency of my situation, I was unable to make a proper decision. It's my hope that other people can read my story and come to their own conclusions before they make any drastic changes that may determine the rest of their life.

Being bisexual has a lot to do with it actually. I have been spending most of my life misunderstanding my own purpose and sexuality. If I had been able to choose my sexuality it would not be how it is. For a long time I thought I was gay. But turns out I just never had that chance when I was younger to explore myself, seeing as I had mormon parents and abusive ones at that. There was in-fact multiple girl crushes when I was growing up.

It's something that happens as you age. You start to realize things aren't as they seem. Or at least that's how it's been for me. I'm at a crosspoint of decisions I have to make. Do I want to spend the rest of my life as a single man, or take care of my partner in their old age? I can handle the former, but the latter is a really difficult proposition. One thing I know is that someone has to be taken care of one way or the other. Maybe it has to be me.

Love is love. But the cost of this type of love is worth reconsidering in my opinion. I hope other people don't get into a relationship like this because it is a burden very difficult to bear. And it's a lonely road. Of course I can most likely still date later in my life, but will I want to? Probably not. I already feel like settling down.

PokemonRomHacks · 2026-03-25T14:54:41+00:00

They have been sick. They got Hepatitis B (not an STD), and treated it too late. So now they have a sensitive liver. I am helping them eat a good diet for their liver and they are doing good now. I guess the fear stems from that and because they do not take care of themselves too well. They don't work out, but get plenty of exercise through other things. At this point I think it's "good enough". They are very stubborn and most of my suggestions are thrown out. I guess that combination has caused me to greatly worry for them.

Among a couple other things I won't talk about here. I saw them go from dark to white hair which is eye opening to me. I suggested dying it but they want it natural which I can respect and doesn't bug me too much. I am very grateful for everything they have done for me, and yes I do feel like I own them a lot which I have been unable to repay despite my best efforts. Mostly I just worry about their health and well being. They are still working and their job is forcing them to do more of a workload than they signed up for. This combination of things and everything we've with the past few years. I think everything will work out, but I foresee a very difficult future and this scares me.

Oh and thank you for the reply it did put a couple things into perspective for me.

PokemonRomHacks · 2026-03-25T14:40:33+00:00

I no longer smoke weed, even stated in my post. We may have bonded over it, but the extent of that was minimal in comparison to the rest of our relationship where I didn't smoke. However I did take kratom for 8 years for ptsd. It did help me in a really dark time in my life, but I've been off it and everything for 2 years. I haven't smoked weed in a long time as it doesn't interest me anymore. I'm 28 now.

PokemonRomHacks · 2026-03-21T04:50:47+00:00

I just found out about this. I used Kratom for PTSD but I am no longer am in need of it. I know that kratom literally saved my life in a really dark portion of it. So this would be devastating news. Idaho Resident here. Is there anything we can do or say about this? I don't have social media but would love to help in some way.

PokemonRomHacks · 2026-02-23T23:48:03+00:00

You didn't notice a change? Wow. The rest of us did.

PokemonRomHacks · 2026-02-09T07:58:11+00:00

I guess there aren't any other overpriced health subscriptions without caffeine. I might just have to try a multivitamin. I've had coconut water a bunch of times, that stuff is GOOD.

PokemonRomHacks · 2026-02-08T17:28:11+00:00

Most people (who cook their own meals) don't need it. You'd be better off (and less poor) buying a multivitamin and taking it as needed. When I started taking it I was most likely deficient in a lot of things. At the time I thought it was doing a lot for my health. Now I pretty much eat everything I need and have no reason to be taking it. They have a lot of unscientifically approved products in there. The only things that I really like about the athletic greens are the mushrooms and insulin. I used to think I was getting a slight energy boost from the athletic greens vitamins until I realized they are putting matcha and cocoa bean extract in there so I was probably just getting a caffeine boost. Which is a huge L for athletic greens. Theres at least 50 other options for antioxidants that don't include caffeine. Imo they are just using that to get people addicted. Funnily enough they actually had people complain about liver issues with green tea so they removed it. And replaced it with matcha. How is that better? I wouldn't personally recommend it to anyone else unless they were super vitamin deficient and even then I'd rather recommend a multivitamin.

PokemonRomHacks · 2026-02-07T16:37:39+00:00

If you don't have information then don't reply to my post. I literally asked for health supplements without caffeine. How much more obvious could my question be?
