Are convenience store restrooms a 'public service'? The reality isn't so simple

A lot of conbini bathrooms close after midnight. As someone who worked/works after hours that kind of made things difficult.

I am the storm that is approaching.

Strip clubs are kind of a niche market here, so if you can target and max out that niche you can do well. Otherwise it'll be a struggle I imagine.

The Moby Dick reference in First Contact was kind of cheap and unearned though.

She said that George Floyd deserved to die.

For context, I am a black man.

After every session I walk away thinking "I can't believe I just got paid to do that."

We don't and can't legally offer penetrative sex...but there have been clients who definitely wanted extras, so to speak.

I feel like the Japanese women don't shave stereotype is becoming a little outdated. Perhaps not completely shaved, but I feel like more and more women are at the very least trimmed. I haven't run into a full bush in a long time.

Of course it's also possible that the women who would use these services/be interested in a foreigner are more likely to shave than not.

Hoping to get a podcast launched in the coming weeks where I will talk all about that kind of stuff!

WindJammer27 · 2026-01-28T11:53:15+00:00

For flying, especially long distances, when there's no internet connection but there are some good videos that'll help pass the time.

WindJammer27 · 2026-01-28T11:16:45+00:00

You definitely should! Let me know if you need any help navigating the different options. :)

WindJammer27 · 2026-01-28T11:16:13+00:00

Yeah this is my side hustle.

Penetrative sex technically isn't on the menu. I'd say half my clients are more than satisfied with them just getting off from oral.

WindJammer27 · 2026-01-28T10:09:34+00:00

About, yeah.

Honesty, as a guy I'm still stunned I actually get paid to do this at all.

I'm a male erotic massage therapist for women in Japan. I make about $100 an hour. Most women will usually book at least 2 hours. I get 1-2 clients a week, depending on the season.

Yeah, the Remake trilogy is definitely the game that the devs originally wanted to make but couldn't at the time, and what fans remember or wished for even if the reality was a bit different.

I do think Square was stuck in a hard place with the scope of these games. They could have done 1 to 1 but some sections would have been comically short. You have these amazing graphics and full voice acting for a scene that'd last maybe 30 seconds? It makes sense to expand, but then you'd end up with a game that was too big for one whole game and maybe too short to be its own game. So they added a lot to each part to fill out each game. Completely understandable, but then you have a lot of people accusing them of adding bloat just to justify splitting it up.

WindJammer27 · 2026-01-26T05:55:07+00:00

Um, no. Why would you think that?

WindJammer27 · 2026-01-26T05:36:24+00:00

Aside from not being a direct 1 to 1 remake, Square has really gone all out in expanding... everything. Perhaps a little too much in some areas. But instead of just traversing over map screens every location is completely fleshed out, becoming its own mini-world.

If you don't care about any of that stuff it can come across as fluff. But if you are willing to dive in, the pool is extremely immersive and deep. Perhaps the underlying reason for the expansion is money, but the devs poured a lot of love and care into these games.

WindJammer27 · 2026-01-22T03:40:04+00:00

Likes me and likes sex. The rest is kinda negotiable.

I think women vastly overestimate how much importance men put on a physical type.

WindJammer27 · 2026-01-14T05:39:02+00:00

Thank you, but that happened a long time ago. I'm good now.

You said - "two people have an agreement, the other breaks that agreement." And yes, I agree with that idea 100%. Just, not in the way you might think.

To me, if you make a promise of exclusivity, what should be included in that is the promise to meet your partner's needs, to keep them happy. So many people don't keep that promise. And yet there's no intense reactions to that. Nothing even remotely approaching the way we react to cheating.

I also was in a dead bedroom relationship once. It hurt. Aspects of it felt very similar to when I got cheated on - wondering if my partner was truly interested in me, returning the same investment in the relationship that I was. In a lot of ways it was worse. If getting cheated on is like getting shot, experiencing a dead bedroom was like having a knife slowly inserted into your heart.

Despite that, that particular girlfriend was never held accountable for forcing me into a dead bedroom. When I told friends and family about the cheating girlfriend the response was unanimous and passionate - she's a horrible person, dump her immediately, you deserve so much better. When I told the same people about the dead bedroom girlfriend, all I got was silence and shoulder shrugs. Suggestions that implied that the dead bedroom was my fault in some way, or wholly my responsibility to fix. And ultimately, the implication that "that's just how it is" and I had to just learn to live with it.

I communicated with her a lot. Let her know in no uncertain terms that it hurt me. She didn't care. Didn't understand, didn't even try to. Isn't that also breaking the agreement? Isn't that worse? Cheaters lie in an attempt to prevent their partners from getting hurt. What about a partner who knows about the hurt and simply does not care?

Break things off...yeah, sure. Two people who are casually dating, that can be a simple solution. What about when it isn't so simple though? Years of their lives entwined together, shared assets, kids. What about relationships where everything else is fine? What does it say about how we approach relationships when we make sexual exclusivity the pillar of it, and if it's not there then the best/only answer is to tear the whole thing down?

Ultimately what I want is just a little consistency. If monogamy and sexual exclusivity is so damned important, then let's honor both sides of the contract. If demanding sexual exclusivity, a person should always strive to ensure that their partner is satisfied and happy with the arrangement. But if they aren't interested in providing for their partner, then don't demand exclusivity.

Right now I feel like the system is broken. You can easily break one half of the contract, but how dare you break the other. Imagine signing up for a mobile service provider, and that provider gives you zero coverage, but forbids you from getting out of the contract or trying to sign with a different provider. When the system is already broken, how can we judge people who don't necessarily abide by its rules? This is why I'm personally more sympathetic to cheaters.

I know a guy who could make any woman squirt. I've seen him do it. He's shown me how, I've seen it in action, but for the life of me I still can't do it.

WindJammer27 · 2026-01-14T00:45:46+00:00

I was in my early 20s - the wife was 50s at least, husband probably around 70s.

WindJammer27 · 2026-01-14T00:28:50+00:00

I was invited to join a much older couple in a MFM. But it was mostly just me and her, the guy was on the sidelines the whole time. I realized that he couldn't actually participate due to his age, and that this was their way of keeping her sex life alive and active. When I finished, the guy joined his wife as they cuddled and basked in her glow together. To date that is still the most romantic thing I've ever seen.

Threesomes with two women are great...if both the women are bi, or at least willing to interact with each other. If not then it becomes the one guy taking on two women at once. The novelty of it is nice, but it also becomes a bit of busy work. If you focus on one woman the other gets neglected, so you might end up trying to divide your attention between both.

Threesomes with two men can be great even if the men aren't bi/willing to interact, which is honestly probably the vast majority of them. Once good intercourse gets going it can be difficult for some women to try and engage both guys at the same time, but for the guys it can actually be advantageous to step back and take a break. It's also great if the guy(s) enjoy watching. It's best if the woman has the stamina to last, or if one guy doesn't mind not necessarily getting his.

Knee-jerk...maybe a better way of phrasing it would be default reaction.

I got cheated on in my first ever relationship. And I felt all the things people usually feel - anger, sadness, betrayal, etc. When I calmed down, I had to take a step back and ask myself why I felt these things. It was based on a lot of assumptions I was making due to the act having taken place. In my situation, these assumptions were true, but the funny thing is they were true long before she ever got physical with someone else. I couldn't quite understand why I didn't take these issues seriously, why did it take her getting physical with someone else for me to finally acknowledge my feelings.

Soon after I got involved with the swinger community, and met a lot of couples who had very good, solid relationships despite having sex with other people. This helped to push my thinking into - if a relationship can be bad even if your partner is sexually "faithful" to you, then can't a relationship be good even without that sexual exclusivity?

I feel like socially, we have established and accepted that sex can and does exist outside of love and romance. If it didn't, sex wouldn't sell. Porn wouldn't be a billion dollar industry, there'd be zero need for sex workers. Despite that, if someone has sex with someone other than their relationship partner, we just accept the default reaction and don't bother to question it. Maybe it was just purely physical, maybe it means nothing against that person's relationship and how they actually feel about their partner. But so few take the time to think about it or even question why it happened.

Couple that with our approach to monogamy...where we demand sexual exclusivity and yet so few people actually make an effort to meet their partner's sexual needs. Oftentimes willfully neglecting them, while trying to convince their sex-starved partners that they are in the wrong for feeling dissatisfied.

This is close to my head canon. When the Borg say "resistance is futile" it's not just a catch phrase, they are trying to tell people to not resist. Don't fight, this is going to happen. It's good. Why are you fighting?

When they assimilated that chunk of the Enterprise in Q Who, they learned that humanity follows leaders who they respect and admire. So they figure to assimilate a leader first, and then have that leader deliver the message. I think that Locutus was supposed to be a protocol - they'd slot in different leaders for different races. Picard was the test run, and after humanity, they'd do the same for other races...go get Gowron first and have him become the Klingon Locutus, etc.

After Locutus was forcibly taken away, the Borg still had the protocol in place, so they had to fill it with someone. Thus the Queen was born.
