I'm not even slightly religious to be honest but it was my mothers side. They all (including me) were/are ginger so I guess that's a minority, albeit the worst one.

>>66229
I found a similar thing out a few years back but ruling the world isn't all it's cracked up to be. You're not Jewish in a religious or cultural sense and your heritage, if along the female side, only matters to a few very conservative Jews and the Israeli government.

Plus there's buckets of bullshit to wade through because there's a faith built around old Jewish men arguing nonsense for thousands of years. The only door it opens is an oven.

>>66232
>YOU'RE NOT JEWISH IN A RELIGIOUS OR CULTURAL SENSE AND YOUR HERITAGE, IF ALONG THE FEMALE SIDE

I think you're wrong - Judaism specifically passes down through your mothers side. I believe the term is "matrilineal".

>>66233
You haven't understood what he said.

>>66232
>>66233
The matrilineal thing was invented because some prospective king was born to a non-Jewish father.

Hello?

>to be a catch-all for everything there wasn't already a rule about

Yeah - seems like yesterday everyone was doing bath salts/plant food.

So they're selling stuff you can trip on? I'd like to know how I go about this.

I haven't had any really interesting drug experiences since the heyday of the research chem market.

>>8432

You can buy it from lots of places that sell organic dyes, often for legitimate reasons. The extraction is a pain in the arse and leaves you with some toxic leftovers to dispose of, I'm told (but may be wrong about that last part). DMT's present in a lot of plants, this rootbark just has a higher concentration.
There's probably a "tek" for doing it, dmt-nexus is the place you want to look.

>>8433
Pretty much this. There's tons of guides with varying ways now so if you have the time and privacy it can be a fun science project. Alternatively it's easier to go to a psychedelic festival once a year and stock up for the whole year on quality stuff, but then again that's not going to be happening any time soon.

>>8432
You can spend a weekend in one of the larger cities in Germany (be sure to get there early on Friday) and work your way across Chemists ("Apotheke") shops and ask for "Ratiopharm Hustenstiller" as you've been told it'll help your persistent dry cough. That's pure DXM (mg on the package) which the internet can tell you more about. You can bring those back to the UK no problem.

Additionally (but not in the same visit) ask them for "Vivinox"... "We We Knocks". You're jet lagged and just want some sleep and just want the smallest pack they have because you heard it works. That's Diphenhyrdamine. If they don't have Vivinox, you can sometimes point out that "Emesan" has the same active ingredient and that'll do.

If you're dressed properly, don't appear to be in withdrawal (neither of these are common drugs used in Germany) and particularly if you have an accent they'll be happy to help.

Both are very much abusable, and if you want guaranteed pharmacologically clean supplies this is the recommended way. I no longer indulge in DXM, but fuck Corona. I want my DPH to settle down. As soon as flights open up I'm over there.

>>66210
>IT'S A FUCKING PASTA ADVERT

I might start a brand of pasta sauces and call it asta.

The slogan would be "it asta be pasta" because it rhymes and "asta" sounds like "has to".

>>66204
It's not even a good pasta.

>>66222
I bet it's not even bronze cut and properly rinsed.

>>66223
>AND PROPERLY RINSED

Don't start.

Most straightforward protocol I can think of is sending a text like, "hey mate it's x from y, will you be at y again on Friday? I'll be there with z give me a message if you want to join".

Don't worry about coming across as a shirt-lifter, you can always clarify later. The less date-like you can make it the better.

Ideally during one of your pissups you strike on a mutual hobby and can meet in a different context, with a similarly casual invitation.

I've always just deleted their numbers after a while.

How do you meet people when you go out alone?

>>29932
Thanks.

>>29934
Usually I ask people for a light or sit at the bar and things somehow snowball from there.

I listened to them when I was about 12 or 13, it has genuinely never occurred to me that they'd still be going. Next you'll tell me Papa Roach has a cult following in Latin America or something.

But yeah I think it's serious. I would suggest he's probably on summat though.

>>12361

>Papa Roach has a cult following in Latin America or something

They're still massive in Germany.

Probably the highlight of the last series of Black Mirror, which I realise is damning it with faint praise.

As someone with comically small ears this is interesting for me. Do you know which version you bought? I've been looking at the TaoTronic SoundLiberty 79 model but now I'm paranoid one will fall out.

>>27542

I have the SoundLiberty 77's and the 53's. The 77's do work for me with the smallest ear bits (they come with three sizes, I think), but if I don't get them in exactly right, they don't form a proper seal in one ear which is incredibly annoying, though I doubt it'd ever fully fall out.

I reckon you should just go for it. The 77's are fancier than the 53s, the touch controls work better and they last longer, charge wise, so I assume the updated 79's are even better. If they don't work out, you can still return them - I assume you're buying from amazon, anyway.

If you don't care too much about sound quality and you're willing to buy from Aliexpress, you can get Xiaomi wireless earbuds for around a tenner.

Anyone had a problem where the bluetooth between the two headphones will go out of sync so you get an echo effect? It seems to do it both on my phone and laptop but only after a few minutes of listening.

Would be a shame if they're fucked and I have to mess about sending them back.

>>27568
Update: I emailed TaoTronic directly. They sent me a replacement pair and I didn't have to return the ones that don't work properly.

Seems a bit of a shame to chuck the old ones but I can't think of a use for them.

>>90166
>How on Earth is a demented bastard like Claire Fox going to end up in the House of Lords?

I mean, why not invite a revolutionary communist into the HoL at this point?

>Tell me that wouldn't be better than the current shambles?

Better to have demarchy address the problem of the Commons. You don't kill a snake by nibbling at its tail.

Juries are citizens selected at random to adjudicate on a person's guilt, as advised by the judiciary and clerks of the court. Magistrates are the same except you apply to be one. Why can't we apply a similar system to the Lords?

>>90172
Have thought a lot about becoming a magistrate.

>>90169
>Trouble with that is that you're asking 300 random nobodies to read through new laws line by line, understand them in the context of existing law, and suggest amendments.
I doubt the existing lords do that on a regular basis.

>>90169
You could probably get the same quality of scrutiny by having the parties appoint a few tens of lawyers and having them explain the gist of the legislation and answer any questions the members have. "Do people actually want this law?" seems a more relevant democratic concern than "is this good law?", and far too often the position of the Lords seems to be opposed to the democratic side of the equation (that is, opposing laws people want or supporting laws that they do not) without much counterbalancing "Actually, with the way you've worded this you'd make it a criminal offence to have been born in Dorset, so we'll have to send it back for revision."

>>26952
Not that lad, but the Times article is based off something in GQ magazine.

When I remarked that must have been some knife, Metcalf shrugged: “Sometimes they use a kebab skewer.”

The scan showed two major concerns. The first was the patient’s colon, which had been perforated and would require surgery. He would likely require a colostomy bag, at least in the short term. Yet, among gangs, Metcalf told me, stabbing victims in the bowel is increasingly common and done on purpose to humiliate their victim.

“If you stab someone in the guts and you perforate the bowel, as a surgeon you just can’t close it up. Because it’s contaminated with faeces, there is a risk of getting infected. Therefore you have a colostomy bag, so your bowel is brought out into a bag, at least temporarily. It may be joined at a future stage when the bowels are all sterilised and clean.” It even has a name: it’s called bagging. “So they will aim to try and not just kill someone, but permanently disable them.”

>>26953
So that's one?

>>26954

How much evidence do you really expect to find for a recently developed street gang practice? It's not like they have a wiki.

(I'm not the lad you were replying to, lest this assumption cause a cuntoff)

As much evidence as for anything else we're saying is fact.

Why would my habits have changed? I still shower once a day, and if anything I masturbate less.

You can always visit your local synagogue for a quick fix

Diet? Exercise? Type of gel or soap? Time of day showering? Type of bedsheets (or anything that causes you to sweat.more or less at night)? Do you contract your muscles when you finish peeing, or have you started to just let it drip?

There just seems to be way more behavioural factors that could potentially affect it before thinking certain smells are an inevitability of age.

Not even slightly. But its very nice to have more of a libido.

>>438072
I've ordered some to see if I can reproduce your results, purely in the interests of science.

>>438145
How did it go?

>>438145

Seconding this. If you experience positive results I might try it myself, for the sake of .gs peer review on how to attain more frequent stiffies. We're all getting on a bit by now it seems like.

Personally there's nothing wrong with my libido; the trouble is more that I just can't be bothered to shag half the time. I'm not sure how anybody has the energy after a day at work, let alone how I used to stay up til 3am smoking and fucking, and still get up at 7 for work the next day.

Sorry lads, the pouch has been sitting in my kitchen for a while now and I've only tried it once, in a fruit smoothie, so I haven't been eating it consistently. I'll report back when I have something to report. It does taste pretty awful though.

in the case of drying your washing specifically, it's more the wind and convection currents than the heat. moving air evaporates smaller amounts of water much more efficiently than heat.

pro tip: next time you do the dishes, leave them on the draining board stacked up neatly, and stick a fan at the side to blow air laterally through the sides.

Don't be so hasty to blame the internet. It sounds like you might be scared to commit to doing just one thing, as that can seem like it closes the doors to all the other infinite possibilites of things to do.

I read The Shallows by Nicholas Carr last year and the author put forth a pretty convincing argument for how our thought processes are shaped by the technologies we invent. We invented the book, and the book shaped our minds to think in deep, patient, and contemplative ways. We invented the internet, and the internet is moulding our brains to constantly seek out quick hits of shallow information.

Experimenting with limiting one's internet use is definitely a good idea.

It's standard Jon Ronson fare, but it's making me re-evaluate how much time I spend on the internet. In particular, whether I need to have my phone almost always with me when I'm at home which I'll be checking constantly. It's a bit of a waste, 4eally.

Antkind by Charlie Kaufman is really funny.

Shadow State by Luke Harding is a good way to get more familiar with the background of the recent Russia report.

I'm also reading Ronan Farrow's book about the Weinstein stuff

Two months isn't a long time when you felt strongly for someone. You'll get there. With any luck in the morning with the hangover you'll feel worse about spilling your guts on here while drunk than you do about her. And that'll pass too.

>>29909
Yes, you'll see why tomorrow.

>>29903

I realise it is terrible reductionist, but it is apparent from her terrible decision making that you have just said, that she isn't that great.


I'm sure there are elements of personality that you consider to make an ideal match you are caught up in the paradigm of life with her still. But that has passed, it can never be revisited successfully you can only move forward never back.

Focusing on what you had is about as productive as forcing yourself to ignore your hunger pains because you don't feel like starting dinner. You'll spend an enormous amount of energy on something that is actually self defeating putting off the inevitable in a way that makes you feel worse in the end.

Ultimately you don't need her, you don't actually need anyone you can be complete again without anyone else in your life but you have to getting off the couch and going to the kitchen to make that happen.
