    Have you tried regular main stream plain milk chocolate[0] recently? In my experience they are being dragged down to the level of my childhoods chocolate cigarettes... The hard part would be to emulate the weird way of eating/sucking I remember from my childhood (some muscles in my cheeks get activated just by thinking about it!)


    [0] In Sweden that would be Marabou or Cloetta sold in colourful packing and be placed right before the cashiers, the closer to the exit the worse it gets, or in this case better!

    What does ETA/EtA stand for here? (I only understand it as Estimated Time of Arrival, and that doesn't fit at all!)

    I will most likely not stop by, I can't see myself travel that far.

    I will however accept a curated link to reading material about the building and it's governance ;)

    This is the most encouraging thing I've read in a really long time, thank you! <3

    The non-profit I’m involved with allows anyone to kick anyone else out of the building for any reason - but only as a temporary measure.

    As an anarchist I object to the notion that a building is outside of the political system.

    anarchy used outside of the political system meaning, to be honest

    I meant like there can be just 1 topic, that gets necroed whenever someone needs very specific but otherwise spoiler free help to advance.

    So everytime someone needs help they post a top-level reply describing their situation (game, platform, controls, etc) and what help they want.

    But please ignore my idea as much as you want and go with yours!

    How about you make a general topic for Very specific but spoiler free help with games? (Maybe it could be added to the ~games sidebar in some way or the wiki)

    on, and on, and on...

    I'm trying to follow through on my intentions to throw myself out there socially and date:aly...

    Today I'm trying to work up the courage to go to a neuryspicy, queer, punk/goth/clubbing speed dating but not really event tonight. I feel old, not queer enough, not clubby enough and possibly not even open-to-date enough (I think I'm dating someone already, so that takes up a lot of space and energy so I'm not sure I could muster up enough energy to try and include more new people in my life.)

    It is not easy to figure out if I'm just scared, feel to awkward or actually don't want to go because I don't think it will be good for me (fun is already out if the question, too much rumination has been had about it!).

    I'll meet up with some friends at Pride soon, maybe they can help me sort it out?

    I'm also hoping that it gets sold out before I manage to make a decision ;)

    [Edit:] So it's decided, I won't go. I just needed to write/say it out loud. Thanks!

    Thanks for telling us.

    It often is not easy for caregivers to admit to their own terrible state.

    The only consolation I can offer is: you know you are depressed (or something) and you have experience climbing back up, so it will be a little easier this time (even if you have to spend more time in the whole).

    Perimenopause seems rough though, like a final, extremly unpredictable, hooraaa for the hormones messing with ovarie-havers mood, temperature and feelings. Be kind to yourself, for this too.

    This was really moving to read, there are tiny aspects that I relate to, but more than that to get a glimpse into your mind. To get invited into this small, but immense, time of your life. Thank you!

    It seems I'm mostly over my last relationship and have entered one of those windows where I'm open to psysical contact in sex-adjacent ways.

    It does happen from time to time, but this time it's much sooner than expected (~1yr while previously it's been 2~3yrs) so I figure something has changed (and I assume I have my last sexual relationship to thank for that).

    When asked I consider myself a heterosexual, a-/demi-/gray-sexual, relationship anarchist and kinkster.

    Don't be shy to ask or talk about sex, this is an invitation to do that too. I wont discuss my specific kinks in too much detail but everything else is up for grabs :)

    the saga continues...

    I had a great day until just now, when the psychologist sent me a message that she won't change her mind regarding diagnosing me with both autism and ADHD.

    Feels hopeless, but I'm used to that, so I can't really muster up any anger, just a simple *meh!*.

    But I had a great day today... I've been listening to bachata music while finally finishing a puzzle that has occupied my dinner table since December.

    I have intentions to learn how to dance socially (couples dance, is the word in my language), any dance - besides Argentinian tango, that's too hard! - and today I was recommended bachata. The music is ok, most lyrics are aggressively boring but that is most music (or pop culture, really), and I can see myself dance to it. I will check out some very basic tutorial on youtube and then it's about finding a time and place to get beginners instructed asap.

    The puzzle is done! I can't believe it, it is such a relief. It has been hanging over me much more than I realised. Now it's finally over and I can move under the next cloud! ;D

    Agreed, but weirdly enough - in my location; they are cheaper (per kg) than more traditional salad fruits like tomatoes and cucumbers.

    Cantaloupes, often with feta or vaguely similar cheeses and a light salad dressing of olive oil, vinegar and salt.

    The rest of my diet for the last couple of weeks has mostly consisted of things to complement the cantaloupes and give some semblance (mostly, but not only, to myself ) of a complete meal.
