The second story is real. The mere act of sharing a story makes the story real because it now exists. If you think about it, one could argue that stories are self-actualizing because just thinking of a story makes the story real. The story is real. The story is NOT factual. The edible kicked in.

As a tween and young teen I was fascinated by psychology and “sexual dysfunction” (textbook term at the time). I wrote one of my science final reports (our finals were original reports, not tests) on common sexual dysfunctions amongst American women. My mom was supportive until she saw I was watching a documentary on sexual surrogate therapy that was basically exactly the same thing as described in this article. Even at 14 I could see the benefits of being treated by a trained sexual therapist. Ultimately I went into tech so I wouldn’t starve. I did alright but the idea professional sexual therapy always stuck with me. I hope someday it becomes widely available, especially given the current changes that have come with modern human interaction.
EDIT: I think it was this documentary. It’s been a while.
Can anyone explain the Drake v Kendrick Lamar thing, including the latest turn in the saga, to me. I am very out of the loop here and search results return so much noise that they are essentially useless.
So what I am reading is that I should open a few Reddit accounts and start replying to posts with random excerpts from Master P era dirty south lyrics en masse.
On average, Northern Cardinals live for 3 years in the wild but they can grow as old as 15 years. The average lifespan in captivity is longer with the record set at over 28 years.
I know the description calls this a “sci-fi black comedy”, but needing to watch an ad in its entirety before being allowed to enter your home feels like a perfectly cyberpunk satire to me....
Inspired by a post since deleted, I feel bad for probably coming off judgemental about the poster’s taste in the movie that drove him to consider sailing....
My wife and I were piss poor and getting finance degree at a third rate state college. I was paying my way with PC support. One day I spent money I didn’t have to buy a Wndows NT certification book and used the university’s T1 line to pirate NT 4.0 for myself and MS SQL and Oracle 7 for my wife (I also bought a CD of Red Hat Halloween). Almost thirty years later we literally saved a presidential election and are the ones keeping significant parts of the US infrastructure from falling apart. All thanks to piracy.
