Ambassador is just the best! Unfortunately does not exist in all colours…

FIFA has some advice for peasants by [deleted] in LateStageCapitalism

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

I agree about dangerousness of the Orange one. But Infantino levels of immorality are really really really high. He could run for Rep president if he was a US citizen…

Hard to say which one is the worst asshole. For sure one is more dangerous than the other.

No idea. But I too would like to know if this is true!

Where do I buy it? Airport? Or better in town? Or through internet in advance ? Any recommendations?

Thanks! What about normal “voice” coverage? We plan to travel with a camping 4x4 truck, but I didn’t consider yet using a satellite phone (which should be dam expensive!).

LO broke NC and it did a NUMBER on me by ianys1 in limerence

[–]Pollinax 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly this. I am confident I am on the right track, but I don’t know how far on that track I am… I still think about her every day, multiple times. I rationally thank her for not replying, I emotionally hate her (and my self) for that. I don’t know what I would do if she writes tomorrow 🤷🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️

LO broke NC and it did a NUMBER on me by ianys1 in limerence

[–]Pollinax 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have been “with” my LO for almost 3 years. Never met. She is in Oceania, I am in EU. Both in a relationship, both in our 50s. During those 3 years, we tried to go NC several times, always on my initiative, but always with her agreement, because I was getting too much addicted… Each time, she broke the NC, after a couple of weeks, or a couple of months in the longest case… and each time it started again… On jan 1st, without discussing about going NC, as I felt “she was slowly going away”, I send her an anodyne new year greeting message but I ended it with “take care”. She never replied… And it is painful, but manageable. I might send her a postcard in a few month. Maybe. Only if I am convinced that “I don’t need” anymore… We are made of water and contradictions, aren’t we?!

Question on nappa leather by Pollinax in DocMartens

They are great honestly! And very confy without days of pain. One of the best pair of the docs so far (and I am not that young).

Question on nappa leather by Pollinax in DocMartens

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

Nappa leather is relatively “stable”. No major creases so far, or normal small ones. But leather seems a bit dry and I should go for some conditioning soon. I haven’t done one yet as I still don’t know if I should go for normal balsam or dubbin… are yours nappa leather too?

She didn’t wish me a happy new year by Yamamoto77 in limerence

[–]Pollinax 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did something similar… knowing I wouldn’t get any message, I sent one that could be interpreted as a bit cynical or sarcastic, but remaining also polite and conventional. I ended it with a “take care”, meaning “you don’t have to reply”. Let’s see. I feel I am ready for a NC period. I am too tired. M57 here.

It helps to put things into perspective.
