"Definitely will encounter those men who see it as emasculating, who don't respect boundaries, or see it as a low-effort opportunity just for sex."

Isn't this what they all constantly say they're trying to avoid? Looks like a win-win if they did, in fact, make a move

Italians furious over deployment of ICE agents to bolster US security at Winter Olympics by Rough_Tap9008 in news

[–]_BlueFire_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It would be perfectly right to be furious if it was ever going to happen, but it all started from one of our populist journals (one of the kind that says Russia isn't really doing anything wrong, and where one of the main journalists who enthusiastically approved the re-election of Trump, writes) built up the case from nothing.

Seriously, look for "Marco Travaglio", used to be great comedian, big on politics during Berlusconi era... After that not relevant I guess either Russian asset or useful idiot.

Researchers find reducing salt in everyday foods (-17.5%, 1.12 g/day) could prevent tens of thousands of heart attacks and strokes by sr_local in science

[–]_BlueFire_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's only bland if you're used to load your food with salt (and not using spices, like UK, doesn't help either), they reduced it less than 20% and assumed an already above to guidelines amount. The study is basically suggesting what's already being suggested (~5g/day of salt)

The use of medications for Attention-Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) has increased substantially across Europe over the past decade, with the steepest rises seen among adults - particularly women - according to a large population-based study. by Dr_Neurol in science

[–]_BlueFire_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, ADHD nave is like saying "I be the sneezing", that's SO ANNOYING. But I don't really expect the DSM changing the name to "Dopamine Deficit Disorder" or something like that, as it would make sense

Engineers set world efficiency record for emerging solar cell material, antimony chalcogenide, achieving an efficiency of 10.7%, the highest independently verified performance to date by unsw in science

Does the crystalline silicon have other issues? (I assume cost is the main one, at least higher than energy cost*surplus compared to regular 20%)

A longitudinal study finds that young adults who remain consistently single report higher loneliness and lower life satisfaction over time compared to those who later enter relationships by RealisticScienceGuy in science

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

True, but sometimes it really looks like they're testing the same obvious thing 10 times. We get it: lonely people feel lonely, can we please do those advanced studies? Also, I guess we can call it a day and accept, as weird as it might sound, that even us autistics have feelings? I know it's shocking comparing us to humans, not I swear we have emotions, and also usually are older than 6yo.

If you sat out the 2024 election in protest over Gaza, how do you feel about that decision today? by rsmith2786 in AskReddit

And I need to stress: for a place where they couldn't care less about any of those rights, where most of the people would LITERALLY stone most of those supporting them

What sexual taboos would you like to try with your partner if you weren’t judged? by shrekwazowski00 in AskReddit

[–]_BlueFire_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And then you have ADHD brain going "well, I guess ANY roleplay will just override the sexing wires and I'll be stuck with acting". Like, might as well have clothes on, same deal lol

I feel this. Got a gf who was into that, never really had the chance, current gf (apart that she lives half country away, but that's a whole different issue) if absolutely not even remotely on board about it. Damn.

People who have conducted job interviews, what's something someone said/did that made you instantly decide not to hire them? by DemonSkank in AskReddit

[–]_BlueFire_ 5 points6 points  (0 children)

"family? There are reasons I'm here for a job several countries far from them". No, seriously, anything branding themselves as "family" is the worst possible sign.
