Have I Ever...: Afleitch Edition

[afleitch]

I stole this from elsewhere.

Here is a list of interesting things I have done (I have kept it relatively clean ) and vote for any you have also done.

Fixed for multiple votes.

[Torie]

I assume spent time in the monastery means spending the night rather than just as a tourist buzzing through. There are two of them on the list I have not done. I got around too baby.    

[Former President tack50]

Assuming for #2 you can count your standard tourist trip where you watch the things and go home, then I guess that one. If not, I share none of them lol (perhaps should be changed to "spent a night at a monastery")

The closest ones I come to getting would be #3 and #4.

For #3 I've taken plenty of ferries in my life. However I always actively try to avoid overnight ferries because they are annoying to take. However I have been on a cruise a couple of times, so if you want to count that I guess I've done it

As for #4, I've never been to a bar that I knew was gay. However when I was partying once to celebrate the birthday of a gay acquaintance of mine (which whom I don't really have contact anymore), the place was sort of gay-ish. I don't know if that would count, but I guess no? I am not sure if it was a gay bar or not lol but I think it was not one. The party was good though.

I also went once to the gay bars area in the super touristy area in the south of the island once, but didn't get into any and just passed through since it was along the way.

needs a NOTA option (unless a dick pick counts as posed for nude art or "public office" includes losing a class election in middle school)

[Alcibiades]

I’ve studied Latin (for 5 years at school), been on an overnight ferry (multiple times from Harwich to Esbjerg), and been to Scotland (Edinburgh and the Borders and Dumfries and Galloway, where my uncle and aunt live).

It was a week

[SevenEleven]

Gay bar/threesome.

[RI]

Have you considered making an indie film about your life? (not an attack; I could legitimately see a plot based around these events doing well in certain film circuits)

[If my soul was made of stone]

Latin: went to a bougie public high school
Threesome: it was a noble effort, but collapsed under competing emotional needs

[Crane]

I've been to a gay bar once. It was kinda cool but not what I was expecting.

[World politics is up Schmitt creek]

Latin, monastery, political office, posed nude. The only one of the others I wouldn't at least consider doing is the threesome.

[Crane]

Atlasians have either never had sex or have had a lot of sex.

[Astatine]

Gay bars, threesome, ran for political office, dated a muslim (my boyfriend is a non-practicing muslim), posed nude for art.

I've written a lot of it down. Childhood stuff too. My husband writes plays and he's the only one I'd trust with it.

[If my soul was made of stone]

Every day we stray further from God.

To live with such proud vitality and boldness is what brings us closer to the divine, and makes Gods of us.

[Swedish Rainbow Capitalist Cheese]

Considering this is Atlas, I'm surprised that more people (so far) has said they've had a threesome than stood for political office.

[🐒Gods of Prosperity🔱🐲💸]

studied Latin at a monastery in Scotland.


(not really, but those 3 separately)

[𝕭𝖆𝖕𝖙𝖎𝖘𝖙𝖆 𝕸𝖎𝖓𝖔𝖑𝖆]

I studied Latin in high school and I twice took overnight ferries, both times coming back from a holiday in Sicily. I voted #1 and #3.

By the way, my parents visited Scotland in 2015 (without bringing their children) and my sister has a Muslim boyfriend.

I'm surprised so many people here have posed nude for art, unless they have a very broad definition of "art".

[Esteemed Jimmy]

None

Every time, the rich get richer and the poor get poorer.

We need to seize the means of reproduction and impose sex socialism!

We're simply not #electable enough.
Although, considering the age composition of this secular blog, it doesn't seem that unlikely that at least a handful of users will run for any office within the next 10-20 years.

I personally was just a "list-filler" in the 2019 municipal elections in my hometown, for both the city and local district council... I don't even remember where I was placed on the list. But my party would've needed to win an overall majority to get me elected, lol.

All politics is sexual pathology. By the way, what is a "leather bar"? I'm not sure we have those in the USA.

Chads hog all of the Stacys and there aren’t enough Beckys going for the Incels. This has created an imbalance in the dating world where a select few of men are taking all of the women. Google Jordan Peterson folks.

Like a lot of queer spaces, most have long gone and the aesthetic has shifted within. But think lots of leather, muscles and physicality. But an element of sensitivity and fun.

I'm a bit of an 'old' by Atlas standards, but I first ventured out in to the scene, and in activism at 16, which was (way) back in 2000 which was long before social media and apps. So even gays a few years younger had a different experience than I had in my first years. You had to find places, and walk through the door.

We used to.
