exocrinous

No, I've actually only ever had two partners who were monoamorous by default. The first two. Everyone afterwards immediately knew I was poly without having to be told. And was poly too. I mean I would have asked them to consent to being metamours with all my existing partners anyway so definitely no cheating since you brought that weird point up. But if you're now deciding the point is people's assumptions, everyone I know assumes people are poly. If someone in my circles is monoam they actually have it listed in their bio so everyone knows not to flirt with them.

Sounds like I just have gayer friends than you do and you're assuming everyone is like your boring friends.

Do you even have any otherkin friends?

What the everliving fuck. Of course I ask all my partners to give consent before I add someone new to my polycule. Every single time. Do you add new people to your polycule without consulting your partners just because they're polyamorous? That's cheating.

I don't have to "tell" my partners I'm poly, because I don't cheat. If you think you can just tell your partners you're poly and then date whoever you want, you're wrong and that's a dangerous belief. Please never tell anyone else that polyamoury works like that, because it doesn't. I've had to educate far too many partners who thought like you and would have cheated on me if I hadn't been careful to establish explicit boundaries.

Fundamentally motion sickness comes from the instinctive expectation that reality exists and follows certain patterns, and I consider this an immoral belief. The process of adapting to motion sickness requires internalizing on some level a tiny part of the idea that our experience of reality is mutable, so I think we should never use motion sickness mitigating technologies except the kind that help people make this realisation.

They shouldn't. Lots of people don't even know polyamoury is an option, and they're groomed from early childhood to understand relationships as exclusive and to get jealous. That's a toxic culture. It's okay to have complicated and difficult feelings, that's part of being human, but it's not okay to pressure children into sharing those feelings as they get older.

Why does everyone in straight society act like closed relationships are normal and have to make an exception for poly relationships? That's so weird.

Also I'm not in an open relationship if you think open relationship means what I think it means.

The Quest 1 doesn't need external stations, and it's so old Meta considers it obsolete and no longer sells software for it. Now granted, that's not very old, but what I'm saying is the technology is well and truly there. When I use my quest 1 for long enough that the battery runs out, the only ill effects I get are the same I'd get from standing for that same duration of time. No neck pain at all. And I don't think motion sickness has a technological solution, I think it has a personal solution. I played video games on the TV until I got sick a dozen times when I was small. Now I don't get motion sick from anything. Video games engage your brain differently, they just do, and your brain has to adapt just like with any hobby. If you play a sport, the exercise will hurt at first. Your body will adapt. If you don't want to rewire your brain to be able to deal with the sensations of multiple realities at once, then video games just are not for you. Because that's what video games are.

I agree, the price was a bit high when I got my Quest 1, but that was years ago and I have never felt the need to upgrade. It's a perfectly fine device that can do everything I want. I suspect that in 2024, you can buy an old headset on the cheap. I actually had a friend who was giving away a quest for free last year and was looking for someone to take it.

I ask my SOs that kind of question. We're bi polyamorous sluts.

"Yeah! Are you gonna ask her out or nah?"

Oh, well then I guess he's just not very good

I tried to read A Game Of Thrones and it was so boring. It didn't stay with one character long enough for me to get invested in their story. Too many characters, and not enough writing skill to pull that number off.

I think George should have written a few simpler novels to practice good writing before he went and did a big project like this.

You can still get a job as a security guard today.

What do you mean "not there"? What features and improvements do you think current gen VR is lacking?
