Download thing, open thing in vlc or music bee. People make complicated systems to automate this stuff but I don’t consume enough new media to make doing all of that worth it. Neither do I need my media remotely accessible, if I’m out doing something then I am busy and don’t need to be watching a movie or whatever. If I know the boredom situation is dire then I will bring my psp or a book with me. I’d rather consume media in my sort of nice audio and game setups than anywhere else anyways.

Music bee is like itunes from 10 years ago but without drm. I leave qbit and soulseek open cos sharing is caring

Idfk + frankly it’s probably not worth it cause they typically have expectations of being hardcore and not just casually downloading and seeding. What are you looking for? Have you looked on soulseek?

No. Private tracker means you have to be part of a special club to get the torrent link, not just find it on nyaa or whatever

Have you tried invidious or piped?

Good to know. I was thinking of donating but I’ll give to the internet archive instead.

No apparent pattern to when this happens. I’ve seen him do this a handful of times. Idk exactly how old he is, a few months I think. Thanks for any help.

Archive.org works for most mainstream news sites. Put the link in there.

Βe the hero. Share it on soulseek

I’ve been using it for torrenting and it works well. I have no complaints. I think it’s less if you buy by the year rather than monthly.

Sounds like that’s something worth making known after knowing someone for a while

That sounds great, but I imagine saying that being quite awkward.

Not your fault, I didn’t make a good title. You’re on the nose. I just need to be nice, friendly, relaxed like you said. I suppose I’m asking a group of bisexuals a general question hoping for something that’ll be especially resonant with me. I guess there’s also a balancing act of being subtle but letting that part of myself slow when talking to dudes.

I (guy) considered myself straight most of my life. Didn’t even think about it. A couple years ago I had some sexual going ons with a dude and enjoyed it, I would happily engage in such things again. This continued for a while. People being attractive is the hook on the end of the line, but having an attractive personality and deeply caring for one another is what I really want. I guess that makes me bisexual. Not that anyone but two of my friends know.

Now I’ve moved and am longing for someone to hold me. I would’ve (probably fruitlessly) gone for women before (and still have interest in them) but I have a concern of anyone taking me the wrong way. I imagine women have some degree of caution when being approached by guys. A minority of guys may approach women with the intent of having sex with them and I’m sure that concern is in the back of their head when a guy they don’t know well is talking to them. I’m concerned about inappropriately coming off this way so that plus a lack of past successes has made me give up hope on that front. Conversely, I feel ‘I’ve got this’ about approaching guys I find attractive. It’s something new to me. (When it comes to expressing romantic interest, though, I’ll probably find the shy part of myself taking over lol.)

Anyways, ramble over. What should I do? Any words of advice? I’m not special, this can’t be a unique situation. Thanks for reading.
