Probably the 2nd worst experience of my life tbh. It feels like your chest wants to sink into your stomach all the time. I don’t think I would’ve been able to go back to hooking up that fast after 7 years (not a personal judgement, just making an assessment of myself). It took my like 2 years to even want to look at a real person in a sexual way. As the days go on, you start to think of them less and less, but they never really do go away. Thinking about them just becomes a bit easier when they do pop into your mind.

If you can find therapy, take it. Otherwise, just take things a day at a time, and just my personal recommendation, but delete all dating apps and just be by yourself for a bit.

“I remember specifically”… Damn, I’m sorry you had to survive on only vinegar and matches, grandpa 🤣

Im curious if there’s even an attempt to reconcile that in your friend’s brain or did he just kinda wave it away?

I’m guessing this means either more war/ more austerity/ imperialism ? 😅

Spooky times yall

you don’t get it…once they hit that checkpoint, the red map will turn blue, and that basically means a checkmate for ukraine.

Lol, what the dude said and the headline are completely different 😂. The commander has a seemingly level headed take that there might very well be a stalemate, but the headline is so out of whack.

The FBI had a contingent in this year’s pride where I am 🙃

How you described it is quite literally how it’s being discussed here in the states. It’s ironically the “I support the current thing” meme but in real life. It’s definitely not receiving as much attention as Ukraine, but unsurprisingly enough, people only really care as far as they see Russian flags being waved around lol. What happens to the people/ what they even want seems to be secondary.

What a shame.

Twas revealed to me in a dream 💆🔮

Lesson definitely learned. There’s always people looking for fools to finesse. I wouldn’t have minded if it was like 30 a session, but 200+ is disrespectful. I think I intentionally rejected the offer because I also wanted to see how she would react. I figured if she left it alone, then she was probably someone a lot of people had reached out to before. Lo and behold, she tries to call me back within a few minutes to try and finesse me lol.

I have not been doing as much cardio as I could possibly do, but tbf it’s kinda cold (it shouldn’t be this cold where I am during August 🥴). I’d like to go swimming sometime in the coming weeks when it gets warmer, but I have been going to the gym about… 3-4 times a week. Last I did chest and it was moving pretty smooth! I feel like I’m ready to rep out 45 and a 10 now…4x6…hopefully…

I made Japanese curry (store bought mix) and just cooked it with chicken, potatoes and carrots! Shoutout to people who make that stuff from scratch :')

Shea is such a bad faith op, I’m not even sure why people take him seriously. Another funny thing that I saw in the article was that he quoted Becker saying “what we need is the multipolar world.’…as a Leninist” when Becker says in the full interview “as a marxist leninist”. It’s literally ONE WORD that he chose to editorialize out. Why would he do this? I don’t know…

Go to the 1 hour and 24 minute mark of the interview, that’s NOT what he’s saying. View my other comment.

For anyone whose really interested in what Becker said, go to the 1 hour and 24 minute mark and watch the whole section. Becker never says that he’s opposed to multipolarity, but that multipolarity as an end all be all is not what socialists should strive for. He asks the question "How can we make radical change in America by saying ‘Vladimir Putin is our leader?’, which is a very salient point. He goes on to say that we should strive for socialist leadership in all of our countries. What is so off about that? Seriously?

The point about the WW1 and multipolarity is making the point that multipolarity alone doesn’t end war. Multipolarity between capitalist powers is still destructive.

Rainer Shead is really good at finding convenient quotes from revolutionaries and diluting it to hell and back. He cites Kim il Sung saying “The differences of state socio-political systems, political views or religious beliefs can by no means be an obstacle in the way of joint struggle against U.S. imperialism”, but just thinking about it for like 20 seconds, this obviously wouldn’t mean supporting reactionary states against the US for the pure sake of it. Would Kim il Sung have supported Hitler? Obviously not.

This dude misses so often.

RIP 🥲

One example, the newly passed Families code in Cuba!
