  • Would you be okay with a porn website requiring a copy of your government identification and then turning your viewing data over to the government?

    Do you trust the websites and government to not get breached or release data?

    Or is this Mike Johnsons burner account and it’s not enough to know what porn his son is watching?




  • I understand this. I was underemployed for a while, so I was doing tutoring American English online. Since I was working graves, my schedule meant I ended up with clients from SE Asia, China, Japan.

    After a few months, I found better work and didn’t need to tutor as much. I cut my availability and was down to 2, then one.

    The one I still tutor is a Filipina in nursing school. Most people, when they find that out, go straight to the “I’m a creep/She wants a green card” duality.

    I get tired of explaining that she actually qualifies for permanent residency as soon as she gets her work visa. She doesn’t need me at all to come to the US to work.

    There are plenty of legitimate organizations and agencies that help Filipino nurses get jobs and visas at minimal cost above the required fees.

    She has mentioned that she’d prefer to live with me and would be open to a relationship with me, even though I am older…much older.

    I leave that last bit out when talking to folks because it makes me sound like a creep. I totally get why people would think that.

    On the other hand, an attractive, intelligent, hardworking, and fun younger woman is interested in me? It’s a challenge to say no to that.






  • Additionally, many people who have been well and truly diagnosed with ADHD also experience Delayed Circadian Rhythm which makes them into night owls.

    School districts that have shifted to a later start, especially for 12 and up (age wise), have seen improvements in attendance, behavior, and grades.

    I think Christmas has become the poster child for this unending cycle of “event seasons” that is pushed by retailers. New Year’s celebrations and sales give way to Presidents Day sales and Valentine’s (if you really love her you’ll spend $10K on a real blood diamond) then it’s Easter (gotta buy cute new clothes for the kids to celebrate the rising of the Christian lich god) then Mother’s Day, Memorial Day, Pride Month, Fourth of July, Back to School, Labor Day, Halloween, say hi and bye to Thanksgiving bc Christmas ads featuring white people buying ridiculous shit for their spouses take precedence.
