Femboys and the likes of the likes of the likes of the likes of the likes

Well that went well.

That's awesome! Reading for pleasure or work/school?

I'm sorry but sk8ter boy is obviously the GOAT

That's true. It is a human trait. But at the moment the ones making that mistake again are the Americans.

It it was unprecedented, would it be more or less forgivable? I don't know really.

Mm it makes me very angry and sad to see peoples response to this. I feel like in Europe at least more and more people are becoming aware that it is not in fact just "the art of the deal", but serious. Still a lot of careful rethoric thrown around and a lot of people refuse accepting the situation (fascists in the white house) but it is getting better. I have no idea how it is in the US tho except for some news articles which don't tell me shit about what people think..

Alright, I am also autistic so I can understand your argument. I do the same but I also do my best these days to remember to "breathe" mentally so I don't get too invested in things and get isolated.

I am not saying you have a problem, I don't know you :) I just know that addiction generally is not only about how much you take and a lot about how you relate to and think about something. Of course, this is for psychological addictions, not physical. I experienced both and physical is way more terrifying, but just be aware that too many miscalculations can land you in physical addiction.

What let me keep using so long was that I was organized about it, so while friends died in overdoses or lost it and got arrested and attention which forced them stopping in some cases I didn't until a very long time in, at which point all the schedules and management in the world were not enough anymore and I lost it too. So just keep in mind that being so organized is good but you are betting a lot on your ability to make the correct calculations and if they are wrong that is a big bet to lose.

Still you do you, it is your body after all and you do what you want with yourself!

You might consider you are a bit too invested in this part of your life tho?

I once got asked by a friend about her older brother (in his 40s, has a family and child and fully functioning) about him starting smoking a lot of weed. I was asked because I used to have a serious addiction. And so I asked some questions, because doing drugs is not necessarily a sign of anything.

I explained to her that what to watch out for is trying to find a good reason why drugs are not the problem while continuously having problems in relation to them, caused by others or yourself is irrelevant. For example, trying to set up schedules for how much should technically be okay. Maybe glossing over miscalculations and bad experiences, trying the same things in different ways over and over. Basically, trying to really, really control something so much it takes up a very large part of your thoughts and time.

Now look I don't know you but from your post, you spend a lot of time thinking about drugs. If you do them often or not right now is not the question, how much time revolves around drugs and how important are they to you?

A two week break is no break and doesn't prove anything btw, and your friends being unsafe drinkers is not making anything you may or may not do better. Sure they are probably hypocrites and it doesn't sound like anything they are saying to you is helpful in any way, I agree on that. But maybe if one of them spent this much energy thinking about alcohol they would probably be called alcoholics?

The nice part about Boox is that you never have to worry about formats really. They all read equally well, and you can crop yourself if it for some reason doesn't crop as expected. It then applies the same crop to all pages.

For other formsts like epub you can adjust font etc which is nice, and I use the built in dictionary a lot as I am not native English speaking but prefer to read in English generally. You can download and configure several dictionaries which is cool for multilingual people.

This is in the Nova 3 btw but I hear they are very similar.

I imagine this popped up because I just commented something similar, but I'll go again lol..

I use an Onyx Boox Nova 3. Runs android, builtin reader supports most formats (epub, mobi, pdf, cbz and more but these sre all I ever use).

The built in browser makes it easy to download new books, but it is of course sluggish so there is also a wifi sharing feature with a very easy to use dedicated app. Visit the IP from other device on same wifi, drop books, get them on your Boox device.

Also downloading APKs like Mihon is awesome for manga. I don't use any other apps tho, as the device is slow in general. It is for reading and nothing else, which is how I like it.

Man Onion is way to believable these days..

Edit: this text is hilarious great job OP.

I'm pissed at the american people.

Without getting into insults and earning a ban, they voted for this guy.
