Thanks for making me discover some punk songs.

Feels more black than death, but that's cool.

I think the thrill and pleasure was what they were after. The subreddit was just for sharing and encouraging eachother. But yea, really dangerous fantasy to act on.

There was one where women shared stories of them getting raped, because they found this to be arousing. Most of the time, they were intentionally putting themselves in situations where they expected the risks of getting raped to be higher.

Examples:

• Going to the bar showing a lot of skin, flirting, and drinking too much, or pretending to be drunk.
• Going to a man's home, and pretending to fall asleep, with a skirt.
• Showing off her naked body next to a busy highway.

I think they even had insider jargon.

Can't find it anymore, maybe it was closed. It's been a long while I've even went on Reddit at all.

What was the first one about?

Judging from the screenshots, it seems to be completely non-sexualized. You could hardly get aroused by looking at the woman's body there.

I started seeing them in my neighborhood. What's going on?

What I would change in my case:

• Engage with people, even if it's awkward or you have something more fun and that takes less effort right now
• Get a basic understanding of personal finance (read a book or two)
• Don't be content with the bare minimum. You'll spend a lot of time working. Try to get as much as possible for yourself for every hour working.

But I think each person's realities will vary a lot. For example, regarding the first bullet point, maybe you're extraverted and already a social butterfly, in which case the advice doesn't apply.

Depends what.

Customer-facing work: you can stay open longer.

Office work: yeah, since productivity plummets, I don't think it helps much, if at all.

Just heard that song (and band) for the first time, and it's great!

If you get a new customer, you may get one for several years without adding any new effort.

Wow, that's wild.

Are you saying you've seen stalls that did not have walls or doors?

Interesting.

Here in Québec, most towns and villages either have a native name, or saint's name.

Doesn't that encourage urban sprawl?

Once, as a teenager, I switched channels on the TV, and there was a movie. A caption appeared on screen: "Rhode Island".

"Nice!" I thought. "I always like movies set in cultures that are very foreign to mine."

As the movie went on, I was increasingly confused, as those Greeks, or Turks, seemed very similar to US Americans, and the setting appeared to be the USA. (It was dubbed in French, so I couldn't tell from the language)

I soon figured that it must be a location in the USA named after an Old World location.

I had a job for about a year, where among other things I was making the requests to our physical document storage supplier. They are amazingly incompetent. And one thing they did is, early on, they were calling me David, while my first name is Daniel. I didn't say anything, wanting to note how long before they'd realize their mistake. They never did.

Of course, my name is the signature of all my emails.

You should definitely color Lebanon.

And get out only for winter? No thanks. I wait for spring and summer half of the year.

Isn't Shreik neither white nor black, but actually an ogre? If he was black, he'd just be a human.
