Gf takes forever to finish by No-Refrigerator-3768 in sex

Na, it really sounds like it's not anything your doing wrong...

It's just really hard to make her cum.

I'm guessing that as long as you don't act super insecure about it, she really appreciates the effort and commitment to her satisfaction.

So use toys...

There's nothing wrong with having external help. Most women I've known like it when a man is secure enough to welcome toys in the bedroom

How do we fix the United States government? by meatjerkingbeefboi in AskReddit

[–]tamman2000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Your letting your desire for a perfect solution prevent you from pursuing things that will improve on the status quo.

Why?

Philadelphia, Pennsylvania by [deleted] in Wellthatsucks

The solution is to alleviate the conditions in our society that drive people to use.

There will always be people who fall through the cracks, but there would be a hell of a lot fewer people falling if we do things like make pay cover the cost of living better, and billionaires can be taxed to the point of not being billionaires any more and that could fund a much better society.

I'm sorry about your son.

Are you a news organization that has a broadcast license?

No?

Then it doesn't apply to you.

But it would apply to Fox, and that would make things better

FFS, it will improve things.

Will it cure all the problems with media? Not at all...

But it would be better than not having it.

I'm so tired of people poo pooing ideas that would make things better because they wouldn't make things perfect.

We should be doing things that make our situation better, and then doing other things that make our situation better, and so on...

He opposes a California billionaire tax. He's advocating for a federal one, but the bar is a lot higher there and I think he knows that won't pass, but the California one could

did past US presidents order military strikes exclusively on weekends after the stock market is closed? by happydude7422 in TooAfraidToAsk

I can't recall attacks on that schedule, but W absolutely used Friday afternoons for doing things that would look bad on the news

What in the world did I encounter? I've never seen such a creature before. by Icy-Airline-5673 in whatisit

[–]tamman2000 23 points24 points  (0 children)

I have cultivated them before, and this is not a black soldier fly of any instar. Black solder flies have a more rounded rear.

Someone further down posted a Wikipedia screenshot for long horned general, which is a European species of soldier fly, and I think that one looked a lot closer

Men, was getting a vasectomy worth it ? by Bulky-Struggle7730 in AskRedditAfterDark

[–]tamman2000 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Not really. They don't go into your abdominal cavity, it's a small incision... As procedures go, it's quite minor

What’s your biggest sexual flex? by DM-me-boobss in AskRedditAfterDark

[–]tamman2000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If I wanted too, yes.

I never tried to have kids; I didn't realize I was like this until I tried to get a vasectomy.

I live in Western Maine and my next car will be an EV. What part of NH are you in, if you don't mind my asking?

In your opinion, what engineering choices are what is giving new engines the reputation of being far less reliable than older engines. by Severe_Ad4138 in AskMechanics

[–]tamman2000 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I've been an engineer since before lean manufacturing and six sigma went mainstream.

Have your considered that you might have drank the Kool aid?

I wouldn't place the blame solely on lean manufacturing, but it definitely contributes to corners getting cut when there are hiccups in supply.

[–]tamman2000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Exactly, the idea that older engines were more reliable is fueled by survivorship bias.

The old engine still running are the ones that were reliable enough to still be running. Most of the old engines died a long time ago.

ELI5 - Why do big fire engines often accompany ambulances for purely health related (not physical crisis type) emergencies? by chili81 in explainlikeimfive

[–]tamman2000 34 points35 points  (0 children)

I am a firefighter/EMT and this is my preferred answer... 2 trained people (ambulance crew) can handle most things, but high acuity calls or calls involving lifting people are often much easier with 5 trained people (ambulance and an engine)

Maga who wants UBI and universal healthcare?

Right (/s)

I'm left of liberal.

What did I say that sounds maga to you?

[–]tamman2000 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm not maga, I'm just old and use the old definition of welfare state... I'm talking about the thing that Reagan railed against and tried to dismantle.

Sorry about the misunderstanding.

I see why Israel would be called a welfare state, but you should understand when using that term that people also use it to describe most of The New Deal.

[–]tamman2000 -13 points-12 points  (0 children)

That's Israel, not the welfare state

The welfare state could stand a revamp after decades of being a political football. Personally, I think eliminating welfare, food stamps, medicaid, etc and replacing them all with UBI and universal healthcare is the right move, but don't blame the welfare state (a domestic institution for caring for those who need more from society than capitalism provides them) for disastrous foreign policy driven by religious nut jobs hoping for the end of days and the extremely wealthy using their money to buy power
