    Have you ever tasted urine?

    I have many times back in the 1990s. It tastes different according to what the person ate previously. For example, broccoli can flavor urine in an unpleasant way. Pee changes flavor and smell according to diet. Pee is a common part of some fetish play. It’s pretty common in alternate...

    Rejected for every job I've applied to lately. What equal opportunities !?!

    Statistics show that people over the age of 35 start finding difficulties in getting hired in non managerial jobs - despite qualifications. It gets worse the older one gets. One is either not qualified, or too qualified. Younger people are desired more for various reasons: they can be hired...

    Rejected for every job I've applied to lately. What equal opportunities !?!

    My lack of social skills? I have always have extremely public social jobs (though I wish I didn’t). I have worked in management, retail sales, teaching, communications, advertising, and in clinical mental health settings too. I worked at getting felons and disabled people jobs. Not to mention...

    Garbage Warrior Documentary

    After the Y2K predicted apocalypse failed to happen, many owners of bunkers and MRE rations sold it all off cheap. I wish I could have bought one of those bunkers. Would make a great sensory deprivation retirement home off in rural America. There will always be doomsday conspiracies, but that’s...

    Fall mountain biking/hiking

    Oh yes, autumn is my favorite season. Kayaking in cool temperatures with no mosquitos. Big antlered deer. Colorful leaves crunching underfoot. Delicious berries, foggy mornings with mist rising off the water. The slap of beavertails as they gather branches for winter food stores. Crisp...

    Rejected for every job I've applied to lately. What equal opportunities !?!

    We have discussed this repeatedly about how you have not “wasted” the past 20 years volunteering...in fact multiple times. Yet you keep repeating the same sentences, and actions over and over. You are not listening. Now you seem to be on a pity train of hopeless negativity. Sorry, but your...

    Why are people okay with this?

    Pat, it’s not you. Several people jumped on one religious bandwagon (which is upsetting to many)... Everyone does not believe the same, and whatever you believe in should be ok. Just wish all beliefs could be accepted whatever they are.

    Why are people okay with this?

    Thanks Tom, so true. Yeah, I am old, achy, and plain ole tired! Permanent rest sounds pretty good...worrying about what comes after is a stress anxiety producer I don’t need. Mindful living means living in the moment. That’ takes energy and intelligence enough. A lot of folks feel exactly the...

    How to bring the subject up about aspergers, after several sessions?

    Honestly, google translate is terrible. ABSOLUTELY not accurate for a detailed conversation, or describing your symptoms. I have have extremely poor outcomes translating German history books to English; understanding published medical articles; historical articles for writing college papers; and...

    Garbage Warrior Documentary

    There are a lot of these homes built through the world now. Indigenous humans have been engaged environmentally since the beginning of time. Using recycled castoffs to build in earth friend ways is catching on in modern day society in a huge way. The man in the film is famous and his...

    Why are people okay with this?

    I know, but people are putting down other belief systems above in posts. Like only Christianity is “the truth.” This make the thread feeling like a popular kids club putting down the unpopular kids in high school...and I think we all remember that sort of thing from our pasts.

    Why are people okay with this?

    I for one am not debating religion. I will say that I studied all the major world religions (and their multiple offshoots) back in high school and my early adulthood, and continue to do so. I can say, that they all have billions of followers, and they all have their own beliefs, and say their...

    Why are people okay with this?

    I DO have memories of past lives....how I got them is beyond me. Very specific times and places, and have even met one person who instantly knew me also from said specific time frames. So it’s truly weird, and I just wonder where the heck I will wind up after death! I am exhausted at my...

    The last thing you bought?

    Mexican homemade ice cream cone with two gigantic scoops on a waffle cone. Flavors: Raisin Rum on the bottom, and Cheese (Cochita cheese and vanilla mix) on the top. DELICIOUS!

    Cyber Cop Education or Training

    I think the OP was looking for formalized training LOL - not learning hacking from the Internet! One have to train for and enter the law enforcement field plus, and meet all those qualifications and background checks first. Google “cybercrime training for law enforcement” to go down that...
