I just saw a few Orthodox Jews smoke and vape
And it made me wonder how they would do it on Sabbath? Can I assume that they just don't smoke/vape on Sabbath, or are there kosher ways to get nicotine in?
Thanks!

It's genuinly small things that happen, but things I can't explain easily, which I've never had happen to me before I made a trip to Japan in October last year - if this sounds familiar: I've posted before when stuff started happening, this could be called an update really.
The lid of our trash can has been a meter away from it, not upside-down 3 times now. The camera strangely doesn't detect anything. It's quite far away from the bin and not very visible from its POV.
Things like paintings other objects fall without apparent reason. I do not live in an earthquake-sensitive area. Not often; once every few weeks at most.
2 nights ago my partner heard a huge bang, and a folded crate that had been against the wall had fallen over. He went to check and used the EMF meter that he had bought when stuff started "moving". He used it and it went to 5 consistently away from the wall. No idea what to think about it, the morning after the EMF stayed on 1 when held in the same place.
On the other hand: I do not "feel" anything. I don't see shadows, I don't hear weird noises (but I go sleep pretty ridiculously early, my partner says he does hear weird metallic noises sometimes at night), I don't see anything that shouldn't be there, and our cat seems completely at ease and happy.
I do not believe in the paranormal but have no explanations and it all kind of excites me.
Got any possible explanations for me? Nothing of the sort happened before coming back from Japan to be honest. I expect there is some psychology at work here trying to feed my excitement from random events?
Ik ben in A'dam Sloterdijk nu. Ik ben mijn pakje vanuit België kwijtgeraakt. Waar tf koop ik sigaretten hier? Ik snap jullie land niet denk ik. In België heb je in steden een nachtwinkel met sigaretten op elke mogelijke hoek, hoe doen jullie dat?
Edit: GEVONDEN! Overigens: ik heb medelijde met elke Nederlandse roker met ADHD die gewoon stomweg vergeet sigaretten te kopen voor 20 u 's avonds. Echt eindeloos respect voor jullie. Ik weet nu hoe moeilijk het is.
In jullie taal: DOEGGGGG!
Edit 2: jullie hebben echt een gigantisch fatbikeprobleem.
Edit 3: hoezo hebben jullie nog teleshop op tv? Dat is zo extreem 2008, echt al decennia niet meer gezien.
Edit 4: Weekend voorbij! Byebye Nederland! Ik vind jullie stiekem een geweldig volk, maar dat mag ik gezien mijn Belgheid niet luidop zeggen. Ons geheimpje!
Hallo vanuit België!
​
Ik heb een jobaanbieding gekregen in IT die ik overweeg, niet slecht betaald, allemaal best heel boeiend.
​
Nu was ik even huuropties aan het bekijken, en als Belg zijnde schrik ik me echt "de pleuris" (kijk, ik doe al aan inburgering!) van de huurprijzen. Voor een flat van 60m² in Amsterdam heb je echt een penthouse in Brussel.
​
Zijn er plekken rondom of met een steengoeie OV-verbinding met Amsterdam maar met ietwat doenbare huurprijzen? Enige andere ideeën of tips?
​
Dankjulliewel! Of zoals wij dat zeggen: merciekes!
...And I'm having such an insane blast with this game. It feels like a mix between Hitman and Uncharted. I'm really happy I got this one. Totally worth the full price imo. The early training missions got me so tense for some reason, like I really did NOT want to fail the training.
I realize you can change the controls, which for some reason I have not despite all the buttons feeling placed absolutely wrong on the standard setting, but it does not take away from the experience at all.
It's way too early for a Game of the Year to me, but personally, it's really high up there even without any prior exposure to the "Bond brand".
I am doing fulltime therapy at the moment because of struggles and a shitty childhood. Months ago this 49 year old woman joined the group, and I literally worship her. Not in a romantic sense at all, I cannot picture myself with a woman ever. I just have major mommy issues and she is such a goddamn badass cool woman and fantastic mother of 3.
We'd mutually like a long-lasting friendship, but I am afraid that my mommy issues are going berserk. I don't want to be her 4th son, I want to be her friend, but I'm really afraid the feelings I have for her are dominantly "Fuck I wish you were my mother, so please see me as your son". That is not a good basis for a friendship.
How can I deal with this in a healthy way? This could turn into a beautiful friendship, but I'm super afraid to fuck it up.
Thanks!
Edit: thank you so much everybody. I had so much valuable feedback from literally every comment that I need to let sink in and integrate. I want to thank each and every one of you to take my question seriously and make thoughtful, sometimes confrontational but always respectful remarks. I genuinly appreciate the time you spent on me for responding. You have no idea how much this helped me, even beyond my core question. I knew I had to share it in this group specifically. I've seen so many wholesome threads on here. I have so much to think about, that is an incredibly positive thing, and I feel way more connected and less "weird" for being in therapy as a whole.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
Hiya!
Guy from Belgium here The weather is hot so the clothes go off. I went to a nude beach in the Netherlands today, just over the border (in Groede), but other than that I don't know many places to be nude in Belgium - besides apas.
There's the Helios - Athena sites which I know of. Has anyone been there? What is it like? Any other places I may have not heard about?
Thank you!
Heya! I hope everyone is doing great!
I'm watching the movie as we speak - short break, half an hour to go - and given the huge names in the cast and how raunchy it is I am really, really shocked. The movie makes me feel like I'm on an LSD trip at times. It's over the top and raunchy in a way that American cinema seems to have completely lost ever since. I don't understand how I've never heard of it given the cast, and I genuinly don't find it a bad movie. It's wacky and far-fetched, but it's made well and genuinly funny at times.
In that regard, I think it could be interesting to discuss full frontal nudity in north-ameeican cinema (I am western-european myself so local cinema is a lot more liberal when it comes to skin).
It's like European cinema has all the skin but lacks action, and American cinema lacks the skin but goes into overdrive in action.
Do you notice this too? How does it make you feel? What are your thoughts on this?
Have a fantastic day!
I'm 34M, for who cares. I don't really care who you are. I can find some connection with most people, I believe. I'm really open minded. Please throw all your life's misery on me - as long as you feel better doing it. Vent, complain, whine, express,... Just please be your authentic self :)
Thank youuuu!
I don't like myself. I don't like spending time with myself. If I have nothing to do I go crazy.
How is your internal monologue? How are you able to spend time with yourself and be kind to yourself?
Edit: I mean, I am poly. I have 2 great people that love me to the end and back. And still I do not feel like I succeed in being good, let alone useful to anyone. It doesn't have anything to do with the way I look or present myself: I just honestly dread every single moment I can think simply because I do not like how I am as a person, at all. Lock me inside a room with an external version of me and nothing good would ever come of it.
