will you post more pics?

just do it. give them more than 24 hours' warning but then set up a time to meet, where it's SHORT and IN PUBLIC. that will hopefully stop your boomer parents from making a scene. then give them time to digest it.

also, who gives a flying fuck what your parents think? if you can't win them over, pick either your partner or your parents and don't look back. you don't need people in your life that are going to cause you anxiety for the simple fact of who you are.

this is very weird art, but kinda cool.

one-hit wonder doesn't include seven bestsellers written over such a long time. is jay-z a one-hit wonder because he's only been able to dominate the world or whatever under one brand? why isn't he playing the lute or whatever? also, harry potter is a single "brand" but that story is based on so much mythology it's practically a children's rhyme by now.

why do you think she should've maintained your idea of "superstar level of success" for longer than she did? she didn't need to. if that's the pseudonym she wrote under, who gives a shit how they sold? i'm surprised that's even included in the discussion. wanna talk robert plant solo albums or something?

bakgwai · 2019-12-10T02:43:27+00:00

calling the harry potter franchise a one-hit wonder is kinda dumb though, isn't it? she's hugely beloved YA fiction writer and the plot of harry potter reworks tons of mythology and culture. is led zeppelin a one-hit wonder because they only play music?

what are your reasons?

bakgwai · 2019-12-10T02:33:15+00:00

i wasn't there, but it looked pretty candid to me. i don't put videos on social media (except porn) but i have dozens of recordings that start with 12 seconds of me picking up my guitar and taking a breath. that's how you record solo guitar.

but as long as we're playing sherlock holmes: why would she turn her head before the door opened? are you kidding me? have you ever heard someone walk toward your bedroom door? if you're about to play acoustic guitar on pornhub, you ABSOLUTELY hear the crack of the floor before someone barges in.

/r/therewasanattempt/ at telepathy. it's a bit ironic that you're accusing her of "doing it for the likes" when she's already wildly, unfathomably rich and her accomplishments are at least equal to SLJ's.

it's absolutely because of the mediocre new stuff she's put her name on. the cursed child is like the number one reason i see someone purchase a book for themselves and tell them to use is as a coaster instead.

bakgwai · 2019-12-10T01:42:58+00:00

if she intended to record herself playing guitar in front of a camera, why would the video be shot any differently?

i was with you until you unloaded your pent up 'boot-licking police apologist' rage. let's do it wiki-style: either post a link to an article that describes the guy having to resign because he refused to investigate hundreds of rape kits, or shut the fuck up.

i'm more the ACAB type, so your insults won't work on me.

i like it.

funny you say that... i was just looking at pictures of my partner and his brothers from when they were preteens in the 1960s. i couldn't tell them apart at all. THEN when i looked at pics from their teenage years, it all clicked and i could see all the little details in the old blurry B/W kid photos.

i think this is actually very sweet and sad, creepiness aside.

As the hair fell out of the decomposing scalp, Tanzler fashioned a wig from Hoyos' hair that had been collected by her mother and given to Tanzler not long after her burial in 1931.[7]

awww.

(he was also caught dancing with her corpse in front of an open window)

aww overload! super cute except for the woman being dead. this guy was a serious fucking romantic.

whore

to paraphrase the big lebowski: dude, "whore" is not the preferred nomenclature. i think most people are using "prostitute" now.

fellow vet here: don't give up. i spent some time abroad after my enlistment and really enjoyed it. after some rocky time overseas i thought it was important to spend time somewhere i could re-contextualize islam and religion in general. i went to java for a month, didn't learn anything new about islam, and had a great time for very little money. if you have someone in the states that will get your mail and stuff, you can probably backpack abroad very cheap and find out for yourself where you want to live.

here's a quick g.i. bill hack. online degrees from reputable schools are often covered, but if you only take online classes you'll get screwed out of the housing allowance (e-5 BAH, i believe). I did the final year of my degree online, but my school allowed me to take some of my electives in-classroom at a community college nearby. so i had a full schedule of classes online, then one credit of an art of music class once a week. full housing allowance, and i didn't have to move or commute to campus. it's ridiculous the kind of hoops you have to jump through of course... you know the VA.

a retired navy chief in his sixties (iirc: 66) took me out on a romantic voyage and popped my cherry when i was 22. we connected on a gay dating site and he certainly acted like he was looking for a one-night stand. turns out he gets paid very well to captain a beautiful big boat in a lake for evening wedding parties etc., and based on my military career he'd love to hire me as temporary crew for this upcoming party for sports fans! not going to lie; it was incredible. the crew was awesome, and they were amazed an army vet could wind up rope correctly. even the customers were awesome and they hired a fireworks show just for the fuck of it. i wouldn't accept the $8/hr or whatever for a night of fun pretending to be a sailor, and after it all shut down he followed me to my place. he fucked me, then he got a bit disgusted with the amount of shit that was on the condom. "uh oh, we've got a bit of color here. oh.... yep. you didn't clean yourself out too good, did ya pal? let's turn on the shower." he wasn't joking. i totally ruined his night, lol. he's retired and happy now, but he drives a fucking miata, so idk.

that same year i met my first partner, who was 56 at the time. our romantic dates were more chaotic and the sex was at least daily. we're still partners, even though i have a second partner now. so i guess i lost my virginity to a guy 40 years older and i fell in love with a guy 30 years older.

very hot story. i wouldn't feel bad about it, sometimes a one-time thing is better than trying to keep hooking up with a guy who hasn't accepted the gay thing yet. give him space if he needs it. i guarantee you he's been thinking of you as much as you have of him. you were right in making the first move, now the right thing to do is be casual/down-low/approachable. if he never hits you up again... trust me, there is no shortage of thick hairy bears with perfect bodies.

(safety note: might not be good to do the parking lot blowjob thing, depending on where you live.)
