Sometimes I just wonder if devs can't just be allowed to make whatever the fuck character they want. Hey great that there's a varied look of character looks in games, really. But when the majority of female characters now already look like the type that Resetera wants it to be, is it that much of a bother that FF7 Rebirth and Stellar Blade goes against that?

The western mind cannot comprehend how Islam works because we don't really believe in anything that much.
Christians bend over backwards easily on each issue so the librul assumption is that Muslims are just like Christians. When it comes down to it they will do the "right" thing, agree to disagree etc. . But that's not how Islam works, it has never worked like that. You can't bribe, negotiate or reason with it.
The idea of Islam is not to win people over, the idea is to conquer by the sword(and the womb, rape is a weapon of war) and become a martyr if need be.
The teachings are not guidance for which laws may be written, Sharia Law is literally the Islamic law. In fact, Sharia Law supersedes any mortal laws. Some might be reluctant to fight or protest but that does not mean they don't agree with the Sharia principles. In fact, most of them sympathize with radical Islamic groups because while they might not agree with the methods, they do agree with the objective. Children are taught all the core elements of Islam from an early age by design and people that leave Islam must be killed. The only peaceful Islamic society is the Islamic society where Islam is in charge and the majority are Muslims. In that case, the 'peace' has been achieved and you can welcome others into your homes as friends. If that 'peace' has not been achieved, the only answer is 'holy war', Jihad.
Only if you accept this reality can you fight back against this and indeed reform Islam but everyone rather holds on to the fantasy that 'somehow' they get weary of centuries of Jihad and some 'liberal' peaceful form of Islam will magically appear.

When I started, I see people that are doing jokes and talking to each other. Since I didn't know anyone I thought talking to people would be good idea to socialize but sadly there wasn't an opportunity.
In my 3rd week there was a BBQ event. I thought its perfect time. When three people talk to each other from cinema and games (I am gonna name them A, B and C and A is our team lead), I expressed some of my opinions too but they just say "Yeah. Okay." Or just didn't care.
After the BBQ, A organized a camping event with friends but they said they need more people and in front of us (newbies) they didn't even offered to us. B just called his friends outside the work and C doesn't even know them but they still didn't invite us.
So I start to hang out with new employees like me. I had good friendship with them. We drink coffee go, for a walk, eat together etc.
But some weeks later, C approached the only woman in our group for drinking coffee and go for a walk and didn't even invite us. All of these happens in front of us. And when I talk to my friend, she said B doesn't trust other people so much so that's why when he makes an organization, he doesn't invite you or others. But after that, I learn that A and C are like this too.
Nearly 1.5 years have passed and nothing has changed. C invited her to their annually camping and they went driving school together. Well of course I don't care about this but I told this because to say, they can hang out with new friends and ignoring us.
I can understand that maybe they don't want to hang out with us but they don't even talk to us daily. I might switch jobs because of that. My old job had great people and I miss my friends at there.

It was my longest relationship. I really loved her. I don't know what to feel now but I really loved her. She was constantly arguing with me. She hated my parents. She was comparing me with the other guys for years. Yeah I am gonna make a summary now.
We started to date in 2018 and she always talk about a guy that she couldn't forget while we were dating but meanwhile she said she wanted to marry me. We were both at college back then. I got it but why want marry me if you don't like my acts? We solved it but then she constantly breaks up with me or hangs up the phone while we were arguing. Years have passed. We got better but core problems remained and she is talking bad about my parents again. She thinks they are the reason why we can't marry and I did everything for my mother and my girlfriend to get among well. My parents tried to like her and they tried to feel her comfortable but Last sunday she visited our home and it was the first time I thought everything is solved but no she bring up another problem a day later and she stopped talking to me again. I tried to apologize and she blamed my parents again.
We went to holiday in wednesday. Everything was good at first but then again she argued. We solved by talking and she argued again the cycle continued. I was thinking about breaking up but when we went to city she said she loves me and I settled down but when I texted her yesterday she said she hates my parents she doesn't want to talk to them. Today we went to drink coffee and I said tried my best but I can't carry on anymore then she left and cried but when I was going home she called me and texted me over and over again. I don't want to talk to her again but one of my part misses her.
She said marriage will solve all of the problems but I was afraid that worse things can happen. I am really upset right now. She wants me back but I don't know. I suffered a lot in this releationship and I love her but I am not sure.

I just wanted to expresss my feelings, Era. Y'all have been very helpful to me before.

I went to bed very late at night and was sleepy because I had to grade the exams the day before. I wanted to have a coffee after the quiz, but I called my dad. Maybe we can drink together. He said that heart massage was performed on my cousin and my uncle came to the car crying. I didn't care at first because my cousin was 20 years old and a volleyball player. She had healthy life. I thought she went to the hospital as a precaution. 15 minutes later my father called and said my cousin had died. It surprised me very much. She used to make me so annoyed when she was alive. not only in her childhood but also when she grows up. 3 years ago, she took my charging cable and never returned and she took it without asking me. That's why I didn't answer her calls for some time. Because I was waiting for an apology. But no matter what, I couldn't get angry at her because she was my annoying cousin. I didn't cry at all until I went to the morgue. I hugged my uncle and he was exhausted. He had a coffee cup in his hand, drinking coffee and smoking a cigarette. I hugged him as soon as I saw him. I realized at that moment that my uncle loved me very much. I had to do everything to support him. I bought coffee for my uncle's friends. No one had eaten so I bought a snack. My uncle's ex-wife cried a lot. We hadn't seen his ex-wife for 15 years. As soon as she saw me, she said that my cousin loved me very much and always kept me separate from her other cousins. When I heard this, my eyes filled with tears because she spent her life to annoy me, but I could never get angry at her because she was my only cousin. While I was evaluating the papers, my cousin called my mother and said she wanted to talked to me. At that moment, I said I would see you tomorrow because I was grading the exams and I received this news a day later. My uncle is very bad. He thinks this pain will never go away. I can't console him. But I hope it gets better one day. Because I think my cheerful and humorous uncle will never come back.

I said that the man may lose his job or there may be loss of lives and property. They continued to laugh and make fun of the truck's shape. I got angry and left. Why are people really so unsympathetic?

Spoiler: (click to show)(click to hide) SilentEagle wrote:When I had a girlfriend she consumed all of my time and I could barely play a game or watch something alone. Since we broke up I am playing BG3 but still I can't find time for it. I've only played 40 hours since release. I also beat A Plague Tale: Requiem. But also my father and I are watching Succession and sometimes I need to read some books or work out. If I work out or go for walking to grab a coffee I can't do any other thing. I see some people that play 50 hours in a week while working full time. It's nearly impossible for me. Is it all time management or I should wait for retirement (which I am not planning for the next 40 years)

I am not working remotely so I have to wake up early. After 1 hour of shuttle bus, I come to work and eat my breakfast with a cup of coffee. After the breakfast, I take a 30 minutes of walk around the campus and my shift starts. I work for 1.5 hours and then take 15-20 minutes of break and then after another 1.5 hours, lunch break starts. I usually eat my lunch alone because all of my friends love fast food and I eat healthy. After the break I work 2 more hours and give another break for 20-25 minutes, sometimes I grab a coffee with friends. My shift ends in 5.30 PM and I take shuttle again. I get home by 6.30-6.45 PM. I eat my dinner and after that I spend sometime with parents. After that I watch a TV show or a movie or play a game that I like. Before sleeping I exercise and take a shower. I am also doing MSc so in semester, I go to school too in 1.5 days in a week. If my friends are available, I go to outside with them twice a week.
I feel like my life is pretty boring and I might start to a new sports or maybe meet with new people. How is yours?

I've lost weight and its noticable and now I have healthy BMI. but because of my job I am sitting in front of computer for 8-10 hours. When I come home, I become really tired and I don't have time to go to GYM. How can I stay in good shape without going GYM? Can little changes make difference?

I eat healthy 5 days of the week but for 2 days I eat fast food because of my friends and family. I try to do HIIT cardio but its extremely difficult for me. I was never a GYM person but is going to GYM only way to be fit instead of skinny fat? Because I think I need some muscle mass.
There's no way this won't be a creepy cringe fest
Quote:Went To A Swinger's Club Yesterday
and it was one of the most amazing thing I've ever experienced.
It's one of those things I would have never expected to try in my life but here I am, yesterday I ask my girlfriend almost as a joke if she would try to try such a thing and she said yes, let's to it tonight.
I'm really shy in general but for some reason, I had no problem at all. People were really friendly, open minded, etc. it was just a really fun night and I just can't wait to try it out again (we bought an annual pass so must likely we'll try it out again in the near future).
Anyway, have you ever been to such a place and if so, did you like it ?

Now she is dead. Now I am very very sad.
But I do wish I could get that charging cable back.

Is it really a Sex orgy if it's just texting each other and jerking off?
