There are lots of things you can do together, out of the house, that don't have to be in groups. My ex and I used to, for example:

picnic in the park - for no special reason go for long walks around the neighborhood (we used to walk our dog together) go to the beach (or lake or river)... late at night! We used to put our beach chairs in the surf and have long, deep conversations. Once, we lost track of time and didn't get home until close to 3AM! Drive - and play your own version of carpool karaoke (our rules were that we got to pick our own songs on the way there, but pick each other's songs on the ride home!) if you're into it, play a board-game or card game together (David loved to play Uno!) we had a noisy and busy household (6 of my kids lived with us!) - so, sometimes we'd get fast food and just park somewhere... stay in the car and eat our meal with just us... I don't know if you live (or sleep) together, but for David and I, we never ever - even in the midst of fights - went to bed without saying I LOVE YOU (although it was sometimes: I still love you!). Additionally, we never left the house without saying goodbye and I love you....

You just need to educate them. Don't be too hard, they just need to catch up.

Find out how they like to learn (documentary, leaflet, book) and help them find the source. They probably don't know any other gay people. When they do, they'll realise it's not how they see it.

Thank you!  :love:

The site is legit.

As for "is this post allowed", well that's a policy question.

As forum admin, I don't have an issue with it because it's on a proper site.

Yes, you can.

I have the Terra-Master 541 NAS.  It cost about £540.   I'm using 10tb drives and they are £300 each.   I also upgraded the RAM, from 8gb to 16gb for about £50.   It was a lot cheaper to buy it separately and do it myself than to buy it already upgraded.   A NAS is a mini-computer, so that's why it costs more than a storage system that really only needs RAM and power.

Seedboxes, like any subscription  (except gyms), should continue for the full term, even if you request a cancelation.   Say you pay monthly, but you decide to cancel with 15 days left that you paid for, you should be able to keep using it for the remaining 15 days.   I currently use Seedbox Solutions for my seedbox.

My husband works in Norway during the week, so he uses it so he doesn't have to pay for Norwegian tv.    I have TV, movies, and porn on there.   He also uses my Netflix and Amazon Prime accounts, as well.

We have 3 TVs and various other devices that we can view videos on, so a single storage device is so much easier.   No carrying around external HDDs to watch a movie upstairs.

@raphjd:

I usually do hardware stuff, but I also do QC for software.

I DO NOT code.  It makes my head hurt.

Anyway, the toughest job is always dealing with people and trying to convince them of something, if they have something else in their heads.

One example is when I was QCing a software package.  The workflow was all crap, but the software looked nice.   The devs refused to move the buttons and whatnot to make the workflow actually flow because they spent ages making it look all nice and shiny as it was.   Anyway, the company put out the crap so it could come out right away, but did all the fixes I said over the next year.

I stopped doing IT because the pay is so low.  Even with low prices, it was like pulling teeth trying to get people to pay.

As for the actual IT work, the hard work is trying to get old hardware to work.  In fact, I think the biggest near disaster I almost had was at a doctor's office.  They wanted their system upgraded - not replaced.  Their system was using an OLD ESDI hard drive that contained all their software and data.  The doctor was too cheap to pay for a new system.  It was a nightmare to find parts that would work in that antique computer.  Even after I performed a miracle for that doctor.. and made his system 7 times faster.. he stiffed me out of $1300.  A few years later, that doctor was arrested and his medical license was taken away.. so… karma caught up with him.  Often, commercial business use proprietary software that ONLY works with specific hardware - so they have to keep using ancient hardware to use with the software they paid $50,000 for.  One place was using ancient 8" floppy disks that stored just 80K  (not to be confused with 5.25" floppy disks).  3.5" floppy disks originally held 720,000K  (720mb) and eventually were able to hold up to 2,880,000K (2.8 mb).  80K is roughly equivalent to a thousand paper punch cards!  I typically use 8TB drives now.. which hold  8,000,000,000K.  So, one of my current drives can store 100,000,000 8" floppy disks..  Anyway, their computer was so slow, it took 10 hours to run their payroll.  Even at the time, their entire payroll on a state of the art computer would only take 10 seconds to process.  On today's computers, it would be done in less than 1 second.

I second that

Don't I wish? Trust me, if it was out there and offered even a marginal advantage, I would've found it by now and be clutching it close to my bosom day and night. One time I even paid a witch on Etsy (Don't believe me? Guess again, they're actually a thing) to cast a love spell on a straight guy I would've given an arm, a leg, a testicle and several toes to have interested in me sexually/romantically, but it didn't do fucking shit.

*grumbles menacingly in that witch's general direction*

As I'm sure you're already aware, the most effective strategy is still to be very gregarious and have as many hot, straight guy-friends as you possibly can at all times, while doing your best to make sure they don't know each other even a little. Then you pick your moment carefully, waiting for a spike in either sexual frustration or loneliness, get tipsy with them and then put your best moves on 'em while trying not to betray the fact that you want them like the axe wants the chicken. Who knows? Even a broken clock is right twice a day and sexual preference is indeed a wide spectrum with an infinite number of points... At worst you lose a hot friend, but since he doesn't know any of the other ones at least he can't poison the well before you can do the exact same thing to them when the time comes. 😁

The word "homosexual" first appeared in print in the 1860's. It is the product of modern psychological understanding and the theory of the unconscious or subconscious mind. The concept of an innate unconscious behavioural disposition did not exist before then.

The earliest translation of the Bible that contains the word "homosexual" was in 1941. If we accept that the Greek word "Arsenokoites" means a man bedding (having sex with) and another man, something highly debatable, homosexuality is an obviously incorrect translation.

1. more than half of homosexuals are women.
2. many homosexual men don't or have not yet had sex with another man, but they are still homosexuals.
3. if surveys are to believed, the small proportion of heterosexual men that have had sex with another man actually outnumber the total number of homosexual men since the proportion of men who are homosexual is so small.
4. Sexuality refers to a disposition, i.e. who are are sexuality attracted to. It does not refer to any sexual act.

The modern translations of the Bible that print the word "homosexual" are therefore clearly and absolutely wrong. The mistranslation changes the meaning from condemning people for what they do, to condemning people for how they were born.

Yes?!?! :love:

I'm a regular on a writing forum, and even though it's meant for typical fantasy nerd stuff and not XXX content, I've had to witness some uh, creative ideas that some people show up with. In no particular order:

Dude who was into anthropomorphic female horses with dicks Guy who had an elaborate fantasy world all so that he could write a domestic love story between lizard people Pregnancy The common cold and tickling. They were legitimately confused when no one wanted to help them write this Alternate universe world war two with racist undertones and horny animal people Several nude people on top of a horse having to stay put for a still life painting inside of an italian restaurant. This one was actually successful

Those are the atrocities that I can remember off the top of my head, though I could probably remember more if I bash my head a couple of times

i am str8 and i think i could fuck a chubby big boob hairy guy untill he cums

@beststriker:

Internet Download Manager - Only one I would recommend :cheesy2:

I have tried IDM many years ago, and I was not impressed.

I tried it again a few days ago… they have improved it a LOT!
I LOVE it!
