What Are You Thinking? Continued 14

[dawn_of_night]

From the meme thread

For those with bearded partners: would you want to see your partner without a beard? Is that an option?

Some of you may have seen the videos of children seeing their dad after shaving a beard. It's trauma!

I've had my beard continously for over 25 of my 53 years. It's been in its current state for about 20. I've often joked that shaving my beard is my anti-aging plan because I expect I'd look younger shaving the gray beard away, but I don't think I would/will ever do it.

Thoughts from those with bearded partners?

When I had that partner....
It was definitely not an option to remove ...

Sounds like he's wallpapering a few rooms.

I had a friend whose downstairs loo was called the little boys room because the room was decorated wall to wall in tasteful pictures of gorgeous nude men and a small collection of rubber duckies. Lace curtains on the windows. I have pictures somewhere.

I thinking about Ukraine’s deadly sea drones and how they can shoot down helicopters from the Black Sea.
They have already sank 1/4 of the Russian naval assets in the Black Sea.

[Mo_Bandy]

Dude if a muh fucker could drink moderately I would do that a lot.

 

[EvaLane]

Whatever the opposite of a tolerance break is, that’s what I’ll be doing today

 

[RosewoodTulip]

Thinking I missed a really important conversation here last night and I don't like how it's made me feel about this place.

 

[mellowyellows]

I’m thinking that I need a day off. My mornings have come way too early.

 

[RosewoodTulip]

The photo download debate?

Yeah. I dunno, maybe I'm just naive. Or I just assumed that anyone disrespectful enough to do it would be a lurker who never built relationships here. Or maybe I thought that those who do knew that it's a bad thing and wouldn't admit it so casually like we're the problem for not assuming our images would be downloaded without permission.

Anyway I've just double checked my photo sharing accounts to make sure anything I posted is deleted and I won't be sharing again - or if I do it will be with extreme caution and definitely not for a long time.

I wonder if folks might start posting only to group chats with trusted friends.

I think this is going leave a mark. It certainly removed a veil of ignorance.

I was going to ask that you tell me more until I read the fine print.

 

[MidwestPrincess23]

…punctuation helps
Or at least new lines

 

[deft]

I’m sorry to disappoint!

I can let you know if other tugging occurs.

@NakedStoryLover

They shouldn’t.

Here’s the truth no one wants to say out loud. It’s not just “bad actors” or strangers doing this. It’s people women trusted.

It’s always “they would never” till they do.

I’m glad this conversation is happening, because finally, people are getting a peek behind the curtain.

And let’s just say it plainly - the compulsive drive to collect, organize, and hoard pornography, especially without consent, isn’t just creepy. It’s a sign of deeper disordered behaviour that no one wants to admit, but here we are.

People aren’t thinking big enough, tbh. AI is already being used on Lit, by content creators themselves or by nameless strangers that use your catalog to create their own version of you.

Consent doesn’t matter when the tech doesn’t ask.

And when the fantasy is just convincing enough, who’s going to stop and wonder if it was ever really you?

Please, protect yourselves.

 

[EvaLane]

Ooops

 

[FreckledSprite]

It’s a sign of deeper disordered behaviour that no one wants to admit, but here we are.

The behavior is one disappointment, and very telling about who we’re dealing with. The doubling down and justifying it is even more sick.

 

[redsnowbunny]

You seem to have found an accidental cuddle buddy.

I've been here 6 years, that never happens to me

I absolutely don't believe you!!!
You seem super cuddle-worthy

 

[EvaLane]

This whole conversation has me replaying the scene from Adolescence where the boy says “he won’t be getting anymore pictures now, will he” and the woman says “no, she’s dead.”

But that’s not what he meant. He meant the illusion of trust was shattered with that one dude and he drew attention to what they were all doing.

 

[Little__one__]

I'm thinking if I'll ever be good enough for him

 

[NakedStoryLover]

I'm thinking if I'll ever be good enough for him

I expect you are already good enough

 

[Neanderthal247]

Now we have to earn sexy pics from sexy litsters.


Someone always fucks it up, by breaking social protocol.


At least the truth is revealed and litsters can make decisions with more information out there, because who knows else is doing it.



I went through this many years ago, that's why a lot of people take it down fast, but that's no guarantee. I know when I post, someone might save them.

 

[redsnowbunny]

Minecraft movie -meh
Even Jason Momoa couldn't save it for me.

And certainly NOT with Bangs.
BANGS.
I want to know who the criminal hair-stylist of the movie is.

Edit:
I fully believe the person whose idea was to put bangs on JM have to be criminally prosecuted.
Jason Momoa and Bangs should not be in the same phrase.. or universe.
