Ahhhh gold old nuclear boyscout...

That is my understanding. I remember hearing stories about dudes visiting a dump or whatever, kicking through the screen of a CRT and getting zapped like fuck

What left party??

Goddamn, was my brain ever this smooth??

There were some anecdotes I remember reading (that I'd really appreciate some sources on, if ever I get around to investigating) about how the Soviet Union during the Cold War maintained a steely eyed, ice cold resolve as the US was doing everything they could to spark a nuclear war. Pieces I remember are times the US flew bombers at Moscow, watching for Soviet reaction, hoping to find out the range ability of Soviet radar.

And then the Cuban Missile Crisis of course

Okay so.
I... have a friend...
who has difficulty ejaculating with a partner but never with masturbation. He thinks because the problem never arises with masturbation, it couldn't be caused by medication. Is this logic sound? Or could his antidepressants be the reason he's limp-dicked for real women?

I remember that book...

Haha, less of an option in this case. I think I've got the near-term sorted though so maybe I'll be on c/comradeship later but for now, we'll see

Thanks for the community rec!

Nothing to apologize for! I'll look around a bit for what question I'm really asking and probably write up a top level comment!

I appreciate it! I'm wondering if there's a Lemmy community where I could get the advice of internet strangers as to how best to not be an asshole... Do you know of such a community?

I had a pretty good day yesterday, a woman I've been quite enjoying getting to know started texting me again.

Hope you feel better soon!

I find an effective means to resolve my anxiety is to consider the worst possible outcome and resolve within myself if that is an outcome I can withstand.
