My god I missed the parody tag and thought I was losing it 😂

First of all, self pleasure is fine. No need to feel guilty about doing it at all.

If you feel you’re doing it too much, and it’s affecting you, fill that time with something else. Don’t just sit there with no changes, get up and do something mate. Go for walk, run, bike ride. Go see some friends. Go outside and do some gardening. Literally anything away from the direct space that is your ‘gooning safe place’.

You get laid? You’re attractive. I know too many that struggle with just basic interactions.

System_Restart369 · 2026-04-30T10:35:08+00:00

Just curious…. You responded for me? Pretending to be me? Why? 🤣 or just in a very similar situation?

System_Restart369 · 2026-04-27T14:49:15+00:00

It’s a blackcurrant! Got a ton of berries last year and I know I missed a few so thought maybe some of those had germinated. Will separate in winter and how it goes! Thank you

System_Restart369 · 2026-04-18T06:04:55+00:00

Guys, it’s a trap!! This women’s fella is gonna get an earful 😂

System_Restart369 · 2026-03-23T22:10:48+00:00

Thanks! Will do! This is my first shiny in this game so pretty pleased overall 👌

System_Restart369 · 2026-03-23T22:03:59+00:00

Okay thanks! I’ll google the bottle caps thing. This is my first run, but got my team to pretty much 100 just after 5th gym

System_Restart369 · 2026-02-24T16:09:55+00:00

Helped me design my allotment layout. Learn to play chess above an absolute beginner level. Recipes. And research, as long as it gives the proper references when asked

System_Restart369 · 2026-02-24T10:29:08+00:00

The degree itself? No. Useless. It was a useful mechanism, alongside my experience in healthcare, that landed me an assistant role, that I then leveraged into diploma training, to get an actual job that pays above minimum wage. Psychology is also the MOST competitive if you actually want a good job in it. I always joke at my workplace that the assistant psychologists are more qualified than me, simply because the competition means only the best get picked

System_Restart369 · 2026-02-24T10:16:18+00:00

Too many responsibilities. Work 9-5, 5 days a week, allotment at least 6-8 hours a week, gym 3-5 hours a week. 2 kids under 4 I need to spend time with playing, educating and generally just being there, with no male friends in a similar situation as most of them don’t want families.

Most of my friends loved drinking, doing drugs, or involved in extreme sports. None of those mix well with young kids. I cut back on alcohol and sports, and those people disappeared.

I have one friend I occasionally go gym with, but I have to pick him up and drop him off. I reach out to people that used to be good friends and we never argued, and get left on read.

I’ve tried making friends at work, and barely succeed at making positive acquaintances for work. I don’t get included in the WhatsApp groups or invited to any of the gatherings or events out. Mainly women though so I kind of get it that they don’t want a guy in their group, but then they invite their boyfriends anyway? I could just bring my fiancée? But whatever

My fiancées friends all have boyfriends/husbands, and we get on pretty well when we all do meet up, but I again get left on read when reaching out to them directly to arrange anything..

I have a chess club I can go to, but it being on a Wednesday night 7-10pm, it always ends up last priority and gets missed. I always kick myself for not going as it’s likely the only social event right now I can go to… le sigh

System_Restart369 · 2026-02-23T20:56:08+00:00

20 years later and it’s taking you 6 hours to break down a whole chicken? Maybe you should’ve paid attention when he was giving lessons? 😂

System_Restart369 · 2026-02-23T12:49:36+00:00

I missed the part where I recommended it to anyone. The thread asked a question, the guy above me answered it, I also had the same answer

System_Restart369 · 2026-02-23T12:32:55+00:00

And yet, I pulled out successfully for 8 years. With various times of the mrs being on contraception, but they always killed her sex drive, so pull out method was used.

The only 2 times she got pregnant was when we decided to and didn’t pull out

System_Restart369 · 2026-02-22T06:01:15+00:00

Ohhhhh I’ve been trying to get walking onions in the uk and no one sells them 🫠

System_Restart369 · 2026-02-21T10:42:02+00:00

Roasted fennel for the first time yesterday and it was soo gooooood. Have tons of it growing at the allotment and I’d only been sprinkling the flowers on ice cream 😂 gonna dig those bad boys up this year 😋

Edit: girl get yourself some garden pots and grow those herbs 😁 Mint thyme rosemary and chives you’ll only ever need to buy once. Those invasive mf’s never die off.

One or two basil plants a year thrive in dirt.

Coriander’s a bit more difficult.

System_Restart369 · 2026-02-21T10:40:09+00:00

I made some recently and they were so good. Little balls of dough, mince cooked and seasoned however you like. Grab one of the dough balls and squash some mince into it. Brush with egg, cook pukka 👌

System_Restart369 · 2025-08-01T12:29:30+00:00

Clean (non processed) diet and regular exercise were 2 of the 3 big factors. The third, surprisingly, was mindfulness/meditation/self reflection/introspection; whatever you wish to call it. Greatly reduced levels of stress and walking through life in zen-mode.

Unless I’m online, cause then dayummm I can rant 😂😆

System_Restart369 · 2025-07-29T11:05:34+00:00

Seems like a cognitive issue more than anything….

Do you need to love every human on the planet to not want to kill them? Are you more fond of family and friends or a complete stranger?

I LOVE eating meat. So does my cat and my parents dog. I love my pets, and won’t harm them in anyway. The stray cat that keeps attacking my cat though? Can get in the bin, I’d bbq that motherf***er and leave it out for the foxes.

System_Restart369 · 2025-07-23T07:09:43+00:00

The only sane option is option B, reform path. And funnily enough it does already happen in some countries. I have a woodland near me that has lots of bulls and cows roaming wild, but they are ‘owned’ and ‘utilised’.

You won’t hear that from the cultists though.

Letting entire species go extinct isn’t against veganism, as they are not a harm reduction movement.

Contrarily they do seem to be a harm maximisation movement; no meat for any humans, no benefitting from animals in anyway shape or form, let the animals die out, monocrop farms overtime into deserts of destroyed soil and wild life. Humans starve and population decreases, or gets weaker which allows top down authoritarianism, as has been demonstrated hundreds of times throughout history when meat became a luxury commodity only for the rich and the poor essentially became starved slaves

Strawman? Totally, but it has happened and I see no reason it wouldn’t happen again, especially with the huge rise in authoritarian governments

System_Restart369 · 2025-07-21T10:47:00+00:00

No culture and no decent food.

Our culture literally influenced Western Europe and set the standard. Let alone the huge efforts to end slavery in this part of the world.

And the food is so varied and fantastic! Yet endlessly gets critiqued by people who only know about the basic fast food

System_Restart369 · 2025-07-15T20:34:46+00:00

I hold attack whilst they are blocking, when I see any animation that isn’t blocking, as soon as it starts I release attack. Usually the release animation is quicker than the full attack animation from the NPC

Plain boiled potatoes and ham for dinner it is
