It used to be a fun event when the contestants didn’t take themselves too seriously. Lately it seems like it’s gotten even more politicized with worse entries. I might watch highlights if I read something interesting happened.

Never forget what shrinkflation did to the mullet: only the rat tail is fighting for the right to paaaartyyyyy :(

My house clothes are basic looking items in comfortable fabrics that I’m not afraid to get dirty - leggings, tshirts and tank tops, sweats and tracksuits. They’ll still be clean and cohesive.

Outside I’m more likely to wear jeans, skirt, dresses, and jewelry.

Even before AI, some employers would use a program to scan resumes for certain keywords.

There are also companies who already know who they want to hire, but post a listing anyway as a formality.

A combination of being young with a degree, working experience (possibly through an internship), and connections sounds optimal for job seekers, but I think job searching is now a tedious and soul-sucking process for the majority of people.

The article itself says that it isn’t clear whether AI is causing significant job displacement yet, but here are a few personal observations:

Companies want the best “bang for their buck”. That includes saving money on hires and giving up quality of their product for additional profits. New hires take time to screen, interview, and train - all of which takes time and money that companies appear impatient to dedicate. It would not surprise me if some of them wanted to try using AI for entry level work before resorting to hiring recent graduates.

Another thing the article mentioned which is true is diplomas not having the same worth they used to. As higher education became more accessible and more common, a four year degree became a minimum requirement on many job listings even though just as many of those jobs could be done by someone without a degree if they had adequate training on the job.

I almost always prefer him finishing on me to in me. Getting it in my hair isn’t a big deal, it gives us a reason to shower together.

You get stuck in vehicular purgatory.

You can:

-Build anticipation by making her guess what you will do next and where on her body you will do it as you trace over her body with your fingers. It helps if she’s blindfolded.

-Include commands, name-calling, possessive talk, and teasing her if she likes that. 

-Make her beg for your cock or to punish her. Have her tell you what she’ll do to earn it.

Similarly, choosing to walk almost everywhere unless it’s an emergency, even though I have transportation.

I like power dynamics and having my partner decide how I look, behave, and have sex with him. That’s my main kink and it branches off into more specific things I’m willing to do to make him happy.

Things I’m not into at all that are hard limits include the usual extremes (scat, blood, etc.), and any type of age or animal related roleplay. I also don’t involve anyone but my partner in sex, so no group or public activities.

Rainbow Plant Life website has a lot of good vegan Indian recipes. I’ll share some of the ones I use. I never used soy curls but baking tofu coated in a bit of flower and cornstarch mixed with seasonings gives it a chewier, meatier texture.

No, I get that! I just wish it was more active here and in communities dedicated to writing erotica, roleplay, and other forms of text-based interactions, if they exist on Lemmy.
