Having sex with a child is rape. Statutory rape, specifically.

"Abused a position of trust" is language used in the school I worked at, so I used their wording.

Its a description, not a legal term, as far as I'm aware.

I spent a year working at an elementary school, in an IT capacity.

I was at a fairly wealthy district, but Texas "Robin Hood Laws" distributed a lot of their taxable wealth to poorer districts and such.

That being said, all the kids that went there for the most part had rich parents.

So the stay at home moms always organized fund raisers. Bake sales, that kinda crap.

And the rich kids, or any parents who stopped in, bought treats.

I mean, it worked... but not without a lot of disposable income at home.

Heh, I applied for a substitute position a little while ago.

Called back. I'm a MMJ patient, and only have a high school diploma, and no teaching skills or experience.

They were fine with that. Obviously, don't bring drugs on campus, but if its just residual in my system its fine with them.

Because pedophilia still exists.

And a 16 year old boy will say yes to pretty much anything sexual, hence why this woman ~~exploited a minor~~ nah, not sugar coating. This woman used a position of authority to rape a child.

That would take paperwork. It could be traced back to his orange ass.

Sending a buncha "alpha" male types in masks to kidnap people and "deport" them is much easier.

Trump used Stochastic Terrorism! Sadly, its super effective.

Had something similar, but for a GPU. Also corsair.

Yeah, the tubing on the AIO failed and fried the GPU. There did not appear to be any external damage to the tubing. Just... dripped out over the years. Good bye 2080 TI, you served me well during the pandemic and the scalping of GPUs.

I went back to air cooling after that, just with a lot more focus (from me) on airflow, orientation, etc.

Plus, the high end air cooling stuff is good. Like, in the 90s (decade) we dreamed of cooling that good with air, and then water cooling came along. I just never cared for the concept of water running inside my electronics.

Now if I could get that super expensive crap from 3M that isn't conductive and has similar thermal capacities to water, and run that through a water cooling system, I'd be fine with it. Its just prohibitively expensive.

At a LAN party (yes I'm that old) a dude came in with a box fan ziptied to the side, like it was a case side.

I didn't think to ask about orientation though. As in, push or pull for airflow.

Whatever, it worked for him.

I joked about blood on my soundcard at an IT job.

Because yes, I managed to cut myself installing a sound card.

The younger guys were just like, "Sound card?"

Unless you really need something specific, the stuff built into mobos is fine these days.

Don't be self conscious, be self aware .

If your wedding tackle has shifted at all during your swim, may be try to get out away from the others a bit, not a creepy amount, but like... Be on one end of the group, turn away slightly when transitioning from water to land, place your hands "casually" in a way to cover yourself without drawing attention, all sorts of little tricks you'll internalize before you know it, but it starts with being self aware.

Yeah, and if you get out of the water and have a "flattering" outline in your shorts, its suddenly becomes a much larger issue being the only adult male, and with children around.... eesh.

I mean, I don't know if I'd still be interested in women after being a vampire that long, but I'd like to think so.

Go to a country with lax sex laws (or at least enforcement), set up a bordello and feed on the workers while they sleep off their necessary highs for doing sex work for a horrible human (vampire) being.

Plus, under the rules I'm fixating on mentally, drinking the blood of someone who is high will get the vampire high, and after hundreds of years plus immortality, I'm gonna get high at some point lol.

(Rules referenced: Old World of Darkness, VTM, etc)

WD-40 is not a lubricant, it can do it short term, but makes things worse long term.

WD-40 literally stands for Water Displacement - Formula 40.

Its to keep mechanical components hydrophobic so they don't rust or otherwise degrade due to the presence of water.

For locks and keyways, you want powdered graphite as a lubricant. I keep a small tube (puffer style) in my pick kit if needed.
