Finely ground?

Understandable. If only there was a list of beaches and pools to avoid taking our horses to…

Well…it was for more like a hour than a day, and probably not in the context you are thinking of. 😅

The first is available on VK and the second on Anna’s Archive.

What is the book called? I can try searching for it.

As for learning languages, I find that a combination of structured lessons (from an instructor or recommended course book) with speaking practice (with someone you know or through a language exchange program) works best. Other things that help are watching films or series in your target language, listening to music and translating the text.

Have more memorable new experiences, advance in my career, get a bit more muscle definition, and buy a place of my own that I can gradually customize into something I’m happy to come home to :)

Being ordered to strip, kneel, pose, etc. - bonus points if he’s clothed while this is happening. In some rare cases, name-calling.

Perhaps it’s time for a large treat.

The right people will recognize and appreciate your efforts. Of course there are those that will try to take advantage of you, so you need to either learn to say “no” or pace your work to appear busy when they ask for more.

If I continue to be nice and work hard, it’s because I hold myself to certain standards and won’t let ungrateful people worsen me.

It’s one of the reasons I’m listening to music so often, and even that doesn’t help sometimes. It affects my sleep too :(

Some machine learning models are trained on what’s called synthetic data, which is generated specifically for that purpose and mimics real-world data. What I don’t know is how much of the data used is synthetic vs. stolen.

If you feel highly confident that you don’t want children now or in the future, that is reason enough to have a vasectomy. You have the option of freezing your sperm too in case you have doubts but still want to go through with the procedure now.

Ooh, that looks good. I had to look up how it looks. I learned to cook a lot of new different things simply because I wanted foods that are extremely uncommon where I live.

I hope you find your perfect pumpernickel!

It must be so nice to have a variety of high quality breads to choose from. Authentic whole grain and rye breads are hard to find in my country. I’m sure Americans have access to different types of artisan breads, but the type used in fast food seems horribly over-processed and sugary.

Even with good bread, I like to be able to taste all the ingredients in the sandwich. Higher ingredient-to-bread ratios.

What if the background noise is in fact a series of overlapping, never-ending streams of thoughts in your own head?

Haha, I love how enthusiastic and forgiving OP is when it comes to these things. I’ve never had one, but higher prices and less ingredients/filling seems to be an unfortunate trend everywhere. Most sandwiches I see lately are 90% bread.

Heat pumps first extract heat from the outside air before moving it indoors (I don’t know the exact mechanics of it). The colder it is outside, the more energy is needed to do this. When it’s cooling, it only moves the heat from inside to outside.

They’re great, aren’t they?

Heat pumps normally use more electricity to heat than to cool, so it’s surprising that the opposite was happening for you.

My bills have always been lower in the summer. The only time the bills have been unusually high was when there was a problem with the connection between the main electrical supply and the pump, causing it to keep restarting and use more energy.

Wanting sex is a normal and human desire, and NSFW content is just an expression of that, but without any of the effort or risk of rejection needed to get a sexual partner in real life. Some people like to imagine themselves or their ideal partners in the scenes they view. Some have specific kinks or preferences that are harder to find, thus the need to pay for it. Some have parasocial relationships with the creators.

As for the “nothing new” part, well, you’ve probably eaten your favorite foods hundreds of times in your lifetime without getting tired of them :)

Huh, that actually sounds like an interesting mix.

I eat dinner very early and almost always have leftovers in the fridge or stock ingredients I use often. A few things I would eat if I was in a hurry:

• Pasta with pesto or a quick sauce of cooking cream, nutritional yeast, and sautéed garlic and dried tomatoes.
• Raw carrots, cucumbers, or pepper strips with hummus
• Rice with tofu in a soy/maple syrup sauce, similar to teriyaki
• Rice and beans
• If I have avocados that are ripe, I’ll slice them over bread I put in the oven for a few minutes.
