Another takeaway: US is ~60% of OF spending, when we're generally 30% of global spending power. So one of the right's memes, namely that a bunch of Indians and Africans are driving sexual degeneracy, doesn't apply here at least. It's driven by Americans.

I can't believe Sophie Rain pulled down $80m. She's hot, but (IMO) only a 9/10, and a bunch of lame softcore cannot possibly be worth that for any number of people.

I consume porn, unfortunately, and so the whales on OF with multiple subscriptions blow my mind. How can these people consume so much? And why are they paying for it? For people with mental disabilities who can "believe" these sorts of parasocial relationships, I can understand. But for anyone with a normal level of EQ and general cognition, it just doesn't compute to me.

Hope this guy being removed as president is a secondary outcome. He's a price gouger and too cheap to get some ice when his corpse fridge is busted? What a piece of shit.

I'll mention that the people I know who raise chickens often complain about the challenges and costs. I wouldn't do it.

For decoration/wallpaper, one thing my parents did was cut out Calvin and Hobbes strips and use them as wallpaper. It was awesome. So: Be creative about what "wallpaper" means.

Building secret compartments in the house of a sort could be cool. Vaults in the drywall, for instance?

I love the concept of building forts etc. as well, huge part of my childhood.

John Wick is a well known franchise. Perhaps not quite mass market.

Dune?

I understand there's a culture of letting your kids do whatever they want. I see it every day. It doesn't make it right and more importantly doesn't transfer responsibility to someone else.

I don't find this convincing at all. The parents failing here are elder millennials with a smattering of young gen Xers: digital natives. They're being lazy and stupid, and they should know better after being on the Internet at similar ages as their kids.

Bro come on. At some point a parent has to take responsibility here. Why would anyone let their kids just hop onto these websites without doing basic due diligence or educating them on the reality of predators?

If a platform provides robust parental controls then they've done enough, full stop. The baton of responsibility is passed.

I think the numbers have always been gamed. CPI and inflation in particular. It's hilarious that the US talks so much shit about the lack of transparency in China when it's a half step better here at best.

There are independent analysts who do a decent job of telling a more realistic story. Someone has value for reality - consider the Harris campaign's internal polling algorithms who knew she'd lost weeks in advance. Mainstream polls have been just worthless propaganda for more than a decade but the real thing is somewhere.

It's frustrating though. Knowing we have the technical ability to tell the truth, but choose not to. Having to expend the extra effort to find where it's hidden or synthesize it against the dishonesty in the official system.

I felt this a couple months ago. Ozempic, self-driving cars, LLMs, humanoid robots, and Mars-capable spaceships all in the past 3 years. We're in a new era, no getting around it.

Simplistic, but my atheistic interpretation was always just this as well.

"Funny" Anecdote about SW - they have (had?) one of the most sociopathic and dysfunctional IT departments I've ever worked with. One of two clients my firm has ever fired.

I realized I didn't see your first paragraph. If you are interested in bikepacking I highly recommend taking the plunge on a 3-night route or something. It is still very hard - I would train at least a month or two beforehand - but a route that's rated a 5 or so on that site is doable with grit. Finding even a single friend to join you will make it a lot more fun.

Anything in particular blocking you or giving you second thoughts?

Thank you for the compliment, it means a lot.

I just want a relaxed trip on a road with a pub at the end of a few hours.

I don't think we're too different here in my default mode. I enjoy exerting myself this way precisely because it makes the nightly beers taste so much better.

The most relaxed route I've ridden and one that I've enjoyed very much is this one: https://bikepacking.com/routes/chauga-river-ramble/ over 3 days. I could go even more relaxed, to be honest, and rely more on the road. I've considered trying to put together a route for the bourbon trail, and there's also two other bikepacking "gravel growler" routes that stitch together breweries.

No, I wouldn't, for many of the same reasons (including that I know I couldn't compete). As you mention, it may be fun to leave with everyone else.

One of the people I met training for it was a woman for whom it'd been a dream of for a long time. She was a traveling nurse and so had accumulated the PTO, and was running through Wilson's Ramble with her male boss to get ready. Her bf got jealous and she'd broken up with him because of it. I never really figured out how I felt about that at the end of the day, but I have a family with young children and was able to line this up. ~40+ days and 2 weeks are very different animals though.

I've fantasized about the GDMBR myself, and met people training for it out in Pisgah NF. I think what I've learned about myself is that my limit for routes like this is probably 7-8 days. Perhaps with friends it would be longer, but they do slow you down. Would you race?

I believe a head unit is necessary for smooth travel on a bike (stopping to unsheathe your phone and find out where you are is a massive momentum killer) and I hate mounting my phone. Network connectivity was good most of the time, but not everywhere. The route contained useful POI notes as well for food, hotels, and shops.

I couldn’t go without music

My performance measurably dropped without it. I regret not loading my Zune or something, though a bluetooth adapter to the Shokz would have been a dongle nightmare. I won't make the sacrifice again, I'll figure some other methodology out if it's stopping more, a bigger power bank, or a dynamo.

Did you exclusively go to the cheapest hole-in-the-wall farmer's pubs?

Yes, the vast majority of my route passed exclusively through these and mountaintop restaurants. I saw zero risotto for 8 days, and was unbelievably happy with one of the higher-end meals I had that incorporated pasta. I passed through larger towns like Grindewald and things expanded dramatically for the back quarter of the route.

I did not visit a butcher shop either. My cooking utensils were limited to a camping stove. To put it bluntly: I know this method of travel did not give Switzerland the chance to flex its culinary muscles for me, and that I missed out on a lot.

You can't realistically tackle this route any time other than the dead of summer; the official race is in June. The weather was fantastic and analogous to an American spring. I had rain for the first few days, and then afterwards I was able to set up the tent without the rainfly almost every night.

I was surprised about power being an issue and it was a bit of a self inflicted wound. I had a 10k mAh bank which is a lot. My phone's battery is old, and I came away deeply unimpressed with the Edge 840s battery life. I did use Ebike charging ports at restaurants sometimes. The euro concept of lunch was damaging to pace and time though. The German side was a 1.5 hour ordeal, the French side more.

I drank exclusively from faucets and filtered from streams only once. I think my infection could have come from a couple of different places. I normally have a strong stomach, I must have made a dumb mistake.

And yeah, I was right near what felt like the main strip. No beach but concrete steps into the water. Convenient to change into my unused bathing suit id carried with me.

I think that doing it in the lower parts is an excellent idea, especially stringing together hotels and mid-size cities. Do so on the Italian part as well to save money and eat better food... It's a great plan

My God man, showing up right after open and buying a whole pizza. I literally laughed out loud.

This. Each winter I bemoan the dearth of raw public sexuality at the hands of an oppressive culture. In the summer I celebrate heat's power to exhibit the nubile.

Another advantage to living in the south and being capable of exercising in the apex of the day: the women jogging from 1-3 PM are very serious about being in shape and are shiny from a distance.

You're more right than not! I'm most digitally loquacious after 2 beers.

You know what? Actually, you're right. I've seen 2 fewer times so I was modifying my perception to account for it but after consideration 1 is superior.
