@strangestloop consider "shoot"

"i'm shooting" can imply that you're shooting something else
"i'm shot" implies that something shot you

outgone would be a better analogy maybe, or outwent, both of which seem to me to be the opposite of outgoing

it’s helpful for his enjoyment to be less present, not more

obviously not endorsing this, i think it’s an issue, but i haven’t seen anyone mention it or discuss it in a useful way in the replies

Show thread

i think all of the people not getting why this happens don’t realize that porn behaviorally trains you to connect dissociation and sexual pleasure. like, the fact that it’s taking attention *away* from the fact of the real life presence of the person is kind of the point

i'm so used to misinterpreting other people's ideas that i just assumed my reading of this one was wrong, and it inspired my original tweet

turns out it was exactly what i had hoped it was!

has anyone considered making a course that's free if you get something out of it?

like a webdev course where you get refunded your entry price if you show proof that you completed your project by the end
