    I don't think I recall other Americans that I know of straight up call US as America as itself.

    Well then, you're very lucky to not have to tolerate it.

    We do, and we're tired of lecturing you United-Statesians about it.

    This guys knows what's up.

    Yes, but we're one of the few countries who are named after the continent it's on, so the name kind of stuck

    "US" is a lot shorter and accurate. b:

    Do you unironically realize the irony of asking such a question while calling us "Americans?"

    I do not. I have heard no other way to call people from the US, otherwise.

    Plenty of other countries just call it "America" anyway.

    Lie better.

    probably better than the rest of the world? I don't understand the question. And never heard a non native refer to us as the full "United States of America". We're just "America" to them.

    I literally never heard any non native American call the US "America" unless they've been brainwashed lived there themselves for so long.

  2. I don't know if people are aware, but your own physical sensations of your body can be distracting... like, mentally. It's a real thing, and I have no idea how many people are aware of it. If anything, I think people identify too much with the brain, that they might not even realise a lot of your "awkward" behaviour could partly be due to other bodily functions distracting you. Think of it, we only really filter reality through our sensations, so it's hard to really 100% describe how you feel.

    Most days I'm usually very clear-minded and none of this affects me, but it's been especially persistent this last week. Makes me see how much impact having a healthy lifestyle really does to your brain, and especially your actual overall being. People really take these things for granted, and then wonder why they're depressed and feel like shit.

    Your fault for living in the southern hemisphere!

    (That was sarcasm)

    You're right, it is my fault. My cosmic being could've chosen not to incarnate in the southern hemisphere, but here we are.

    That is unfortunate. I was "lucky" enough to grow up in a temperate area of the northern hemisphere, so "white Christmases" are the norm for me. That said, it would make sense for southern hemisphere populations (i.e. in Australia, Argentina, Angola... lotta "A" countries) to have their own Christmas traditions and expectations. Say, Santa Claus in a budgie smuggler?

    You're funny.

    I never heard of "white christmas", but it probably perfectly describes it.

    We don't say "Santa Claus", we say "Papa Noel". b:

  4. If you live in the Southern Hemisphere, it's hard to relate to the North American propaganda of what Christmas "should" be. You know, with the warm fireplace, cozy-looking home, warm foods and jingles. It's Summer over here, and none of that ever clicked, which really undersells a lot of what that holiday should represent. And not only that, in my home, we never really celebrate it, either. We don't even get a Christmas tree.

    Doesn't help I'm not much of a family person, since it's also just me and my mother.

  5. im not a vampire but i feel like one

    sometimes i sleep all day cuz i hate the sun

    my hands are always shakin

    my bodys always achin

    and the dark is when i feed

    i can lure any woman that i want to in my bed

    and whiskey seems to be my holy water

    and mothers better lock your doors

    and hide your daughters

     

    cuz im insane

    i can feel it in my bones

    coursing through my veins

    for goodness sake

    where is my self control?

    if home is where my heart is

    then my heart has

    lost all hope

  6. I have not only come into terms of my desire for sexual relations, but I have come to a satisfying conclusion. I no longer wish to lack sexual desire like I used to, for I have learned to channel it much better, and realise it's about choosing quality of relationships over quantity.

    I want to be able to reproduce without a mate, I guess. I mean. Damn. That's not entirely true. I don't want to actually reproduce without a mate, I don't want kids. But I want all the power I can get, potential power at least. So how could I turn down the ability to be an asexual organism?

    Yes.

  7. 6 hours ago, Tryhard said:

    neither is it for me really, i was more just suggesting that being asexual has its own problems that may not be considered. we as humans tend to crave social acceptance to some degree and trying to describe asexuality to someone who doesnt understand it is not a fun experience. I'd prefer not to be a pariah if i could help it.

    Not like I even care about going around expressing it. It should hardly be relevant to other people.

     while we are wishing, i'd rather have the ability to turn on/off libido at will as a human, sounds like a better superpower.

    That's pretty much what I meant this whole time. 🤷‍♂️ It's virtually the same.

    Unless I'm reading too much into it, which I probably am, I think it's kinda just human nature to feel that way; we want what we want and we want it yesterday. There isn't anything wrong with that at all, and I don't think it can really be helped all that much. Your attraction to certain people is just like that; you can't help it, and that's just how you are (although that doesn't mean it's impossible for that to change).

    I absolutely understand the frustration of wanting something and not being able to get it, even if it feels like it should have happened by now or you think you deserve to be thrown even just half a bone. It's especially frustrating when it gets to the point when it feels like there's absolutely no hope of finding  t h e  o n e. I'm definitely projecting, but I don't think I'd be able to make my point if I didn't.

    I won't try to throw out anecdotes of "don't go looking for it, it'll come to you" or "good things happen to those who wait," because I know that's probably not what you wanna hear. Neither do I; I'm tired of it (even if there's good reason for that advice to exist, and there is). Someone with more relationship experience and/or more knowledge on the subject can give you better advice on the matter, but as someone that's probably in a rather similar position to you, I can at the very least relate.

    Would it be easier to not be attracted to anyone? Probably, but I think there would be a facet of life that you'd miss out on. You can have deep and meaningful relationships without being attracted to anyone, but I'm not sure it could ever reach the same kind of intimate connection that you can have with a partner. It may not seem all that great right now (it's not, I know), but if/when you do find the right person, I think you'll be able to get something far greater out of it that will make up for times like these.

    I apologize for the long-winded response, stuff like this reminds me of how indecisive and single I am.

    No, I was actually able to read through all of it, and I enjoyed it. It was nice of you.

    even besides that, you still have to live in a world where sex is both normalised and you are considered strange if you have little interest in it.

    And satisfying the status quo isn't any of my concern, so I'm fine with it.

    I personally think this was a weird question to ask. It’s like wishing you were gay or bi. It’s not something you ‘wish’ for. It’s something that’s a natural part of you.

    yeah well it's pretty annoying to have this "natural" part of you that doesn't really give you anything. It's like being hungry all the time but not actually being fed.

    13 hours ago, ciphertul said:

    You just gotta find ways to relieve or better control yourself, h-games and adult videos, something that suits you. You can’t let your libido control you.

    I don't really think that works as well as people think it does, it's only a temporary solution at best. As someone who was absitent for many years, I can tell you it only made it worse, rather than actually fix the problem.
