Intimacy is for people your close with. Not random people at a conference.

Nobody is afraid of intimacy. Everyone is sick of the generally older white, male managers' tendency to invade your personal space.

Could be unintentional aswell. Lots of trees have a very sturdy root that is resistant to lots of pests and can survive in most conditions. On top of that they graft a pretty part that usually doesnt grow to tall. Sometimes though the root part grows partly through the top part of the tree and you get a result like this. To say for sure what it is you need to wait until they cut the tree again because the branches from the root part would be much larger than the intentionally grafted ones.

Imagine what the skeletons they’re hiding in their closet are like.

Seems to be purely promotional because why the hell would it need it? On the toy itself, I mean.

Addendum: Why am I being downvoted over this? I would genuinely like to know. I'm the son of a blind father who has been blind all his life. I have worked with the visually impaired for several years. If you think there's something I don't understand the purpose of, tell me, enlighten me if you think I'm wrong.

Why are hugs and handshakes the same comfort level? I assume this is for Covid but even then you can wash/sanitise your hands after a handshake but not for a hug.

No, but when you have to signal no contact constantly to many people it is best to just say it once and have it respected. I wish no contact was the baseline norm everywhere so I dont have to impose it for others.

When humans are afraid of a little intimacy, we have a problem.

Are we becoming more and more stupid? Have we forgotten to read/show corporal expression in real life? Life is not a chat where you need emojis or gadgets to show your emotions.

They do (based on experience). Best case those conditions never arise.

oof. Drinking and psychedelics are generally not a good idea. A beer or shot or two to help with nerves/anxiety sure but getting drunk and tripping can fucking suck bigtime

Whhaaaat?!?! The comedown of psychedelics are the best part man! Especially when you've been tripping hard and are finally back to reality for the most part but you have this afterglow/body high feeling that lasts another day or so (esp if you took LSD). I love that shit, feels amazing.
