    Get it off your chest: What are you sexually yearning for at the moment?

  • Remember to be patient

  • If the eight planets of the Solar System were renamed, what do you think the new names should be?

    Jump

  • Uranus was (...) named after the father of Saturn and the titans. I guess going from grandson to grandfather when going from Jupiter to Uranus?

    I was wondering what the reason was! I'm glad there's a good reason for all the names because I've always felt that they're all a good fit.

    • Venus would make more sense as "haephaestus/vulcan" IMO

    • "Ceres" the large-and-round asteroid doesn't make much sense, because obviously no grain or agricultural stuff going on there. How about - "Persephone/Prosepina," since it's locked in the asteroid belt much like she was trapped in the underworld, and yet also has great potential to be a planet of its own.

    EDIT: Apparently Ceres is a dwarf planet now, and Proserpina is an asteroid... i would rename that one though.

    I think - given how many astronomical bodies there are - it might be a good idea, looking forward, to just label planets based on their proximity to their capital star. Boring answer, yes, but it's the only thing I vibe with other than MVEMJSUNP

    So:

    • Sol 1 = Mercury
    • Sol 2 = Venus
    • Sol 3 = Earth

    OR

    • Rocky Sol
    • Acidy Sol
    • Earthy(?) Sol / Life Sol
    • Deserty Sol
    • Gassy Stormy Sol... oh wait they're all gassy and stormy from this point onwards.

    Earth should almost definitely be called Terra btw... in-line with the other Roman Gods.

  • That being said, stuff like Dilbert has always convinced me that management is easier than the work below it 100% of the time. Do you think there's any short course you coukd take that would make the process of management more clear to you?

  • As an 18 YO, the first option. A short 3 years later snd i know the second option is the right choice. Maybe I'll get my energy levels up again one day, but know that the world is rigged against us right now - and ti some extent, collapsing - so hustling likely won't get you what you're worth. Take the time to be comfy while things burn

    Thinking back to sex education in school, what was Good, Bad, and Ugly?

  • If i remember correctly they let us write questions on paper and hand it over anonymously. That way you could ask questions regarding the opposite sex without seeming so weird to them.

  • I honestly NEVER had 'a talk' with my parents, they just let me get it all from school sex-ed and the internet. Tbf, probably less awkward hearing it from our wacky PSHE teacher rather than from my parents. I think treating these things like an event makes them uncomfortable, and mentioning things in passing (should any topic arise) is better.

  • Japanese people, what does this pose mean, if anything?

    Jump

  • I bet having the hands right above the head does make it a bit easier to draw, tbh. Means you can draw the whole character's torso if you want to. Other than that I'd say it's just dramatic, like double begging/pleading.

    Who are you comfortable being naked around?

    Jump

  • No need 😅

    The reason I posted this is because it's a topic that always interests me - I'm surprised that such a simple thing (how naked is it okay to be around your family and friends) seems to have no consensus.

    I find it weird that the majority of society is in the "no nudity" camp but hollywood movies and television suggests women walk around in their panties all the time at home - are they just doing that for fanservice?

    And I fundamentally quite agree with the philosophy that being more relaxed around nudity is helpful for cultivating an attitude of less shame. So I'm always interested to hear what people have to say about this.

  • Hypothetically, if you were a kid and your parents worked for a government intelligence agency, how would you keep secrets / have privacy from your parents?

    Jump

  • Either they value your privacy because they care about you to some degree (I get the feeling this is common)

    OR they spy on you constantly and you turn into a psychopath (many cases of the children of spies and security agents being completel psychos)

    Just curious… cuz maybe I have an idea for storywriting… maybe…

    I guess the most interesting storytelling device here would be to make the kid a young tech genius so they can evade the scrutiny of their parents

  • I quite enjoy movie and show sex scenes / nudity - they're more special than porn and can easily be more artistic than pornography.

    There is actually a very high upper limit on how much sex can fit into a show, IF it is a "meaningful" sex scene and adds to the plot... you could theoretically have 50% sex scenes if it was a show about sex or a very sex centred episode. But that would be a bit like watching porn, which is just one reason why movies tend to cut away or interrupt the nsfw action. (Anothee reaskn is that they can't be bothered to film it all, because it's not actual sex.)

    Case study: I actually tried to watch a show largrly about sex. "The Girlfriend Experience." All of the storytelling and excitement of this series goes into the sex scenes, which they honestly should have had more of, given that it is a show about sex.

    The rest of the show was incredibly flst and boring - LITERALLY just people conversing with one another in a sterile corporate high rise.

    old-ish movies: If you watch movies from the 70s and 80s you'll notice a ridiculous adherence to having as many female stars or background characters showing their breasts as possible. It reminds me of how people (e.g asmongold) get about video game character design - they think the lack of smutty stuff is a personal attack.

    I'm not sure what to think of this gratuitous nudity, because i do of course like it, but it's very tacky and obvious. Doesn't waste as much time as unnecessary sex scenes, i suppose.

  • How would you bescribe yourself by a sentence?

    Jump

  • How I would bescribe myself: "behold! I will now write my name on my arm."

    How I woukd describe myself:"The Disillusioned-with-reality guy."

  • What show do you recommend to watch?

    Jump

  • Not as intense as traitors but another great british game show is "Would I lie to you" (you're going to tell me now that you are british and that's it silly to explain it like a foreign concept, lol). The only other thing i remember watching that's competative in the same way as traitors is Race Across The World.

    Some Anime shows I've loved: Romantic Killer (Netflix), The Disastrous Life of Saiki K* (was on netflix for a good while). Witch Watch is an okay anime i watched recently, sadly feels a bit unfinished but it's just that new.

    • Would definitely recommend SpyXFamily - it appeals to all age groups - but I'm guessing you will have watched that.

    Random reccommendations just because they're so good:

    • Dropout TV, which is full of comedy and gameshows. (You can get a taste for it from their YouTube channel)
    • Daredevil S1-3 (Disney+)
    • Deutschland '83,'86,'89. (was on channel 4 iPlayer, don't know where else) & Slow Horses (Apple TV)

  • I'm not a nudist but I'm fine being naked around immediate family, and cousins when going swimming. A lot of people seem surprised by this if it comes up in conversation. The bottom line is that nudity doesn't have to be a sexual thing, and with family it never is.
