#play

An excellent question. I am almost too embarrassed to answer it because I haven't learned any new skill or attempted anything new for a long time. Most probably it is due to laziness and the fact that objects like myself tend to remain at rest until an opposing force causes it to move.

---

I started to learn how to play a chromatic harmonica a few months ago. Let me say this, the older you are, the more difficult it is to acquire new skills. It's damn frustrating. And I still have a banjo sitting there waiting for me to attempt to learn a few simple songs to amuse myself. Of course I don't expect to ever perform live with either instrument, but I am more curious to see if I even have the capacity to learn a new instrument at my age. I already play Bass and Guitar and understand functional piano, but those instruments I learned at a young age and now I simply pick them up and play, but the harmonica and banjo are like different universes to me.

---

Not a great answer, but a truthful one none the less. Learning a new instrument is tough!

Thanks for the question.

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━⠀
⠀
⠀⠀La posición de Kaitlyn no fue lo único comprometido en la situación; la mujer tenía un arma de fuego con la mira directa a su cabeza. La chaqueta se le arrugaba en un impotente estrujar, esos intensos ojos femeninos anticipando un mal resultado si daba un movimiento en falso.
Majima sintió un retorcido placer en todo esto. Que un matón— don nadie tuviera el valor de hacerle un contraataque sin cagarse en los pantalones ya no era impresionante. Sin embargo, ¿una mujer? ¿con los ovarios suficientes para no temerle al peligro, capaz de patearle el trasero? encima, ¿parte de la policía?

---

¡ESTA era la clase de diversión picante que quería!

---

Una risita se apreció en él. ⠀—Oi, oi, ¿tan pronto sacando las garritas, ɢᴀᴛɪᴛᴀ? —el tuerto reflejó descaro y osadía en su larga sonrisa, no demostrando ni un mínimo indicio de estar intimidado a la clara amenaza. Todo lo contrario. "Morir" a manos de alguien como ella nunca había sonado tan ᴇᴍᴏᴄɪᴏɴᴀɴᴛᴇ.

---

Aquello era un pensamiento completamente insano, pero, ¿qué había de sano en él? Ni los manicomios querrían encargarse de este sujeto con tantos tornillos chiflados— poner bajo cautiverio a una bestia salvaje sería una pérdida de tiempo. Tarde o temprano, hará siempre de las suyas.

---

El tuerto poseía la capacidad de zafarse sin dar tanto esfuerzo— ¿y la razón de por qué no lo hacía? cortar el rollo tan rápido sería aburrido, decepcionante. Se convertiría en el mismísimo aguafiestas.
Además, quería poner a prueba que tan habilidosa era esta mujer. Ya no simplemente por la razón de estar investigando a la yakuza, sino algo más... ᴘᴇʀꜱᴏɴᴀʟ.

---

Majima dejó caer el tantö al suelo. ⠀—¿Yo? ¿Hacer algo? —hizo eco citando sus palabras con un tono curioso, acercando su rostro más de lo que debería. Como si la escasa distancia en ambos no fuera suficiente.
⠀⠀—Eso lo pongo en tu decisión, detective. No le volarías los sesos a alguien desarmado, ¿verdad? —Majima mostró su otra palma sujetando nada.

---

Hombre astuto.

---

⠀⠀—Tampoco creo que quieras comenzar una nueva pelea aquí —alzó una ceja.

---

⠀⠀—¿O es así como me darás las gracias?—.

---

Sea cual sea la intención de Majima actuar apacible era sospechoso. Tratar de leer sus expresiones faciales, encontrarle el sentido real a su voz, lo que haría a continuación... solo terminarías condenado a estar encajando piezas de un rompecabezas imposible.
Era impredecible. Uno necesitaría perder la cordura y más allá para comprenderlo del todo.

---

Una cosa era segura; él no parecía tener intención de lastimarla— el agarre sobre la muñeca de Kaitlyn se fue debilitando. Meterse contra los civiles era violar un código en la yakuza. Solo se encargaba de la misma clase criminal que la de él.

---

Lastima que la policía tenga un constante mal hábito de malinterpretarlos, catalogándolos como reales criminales sin escrúpulos, de esos que solo asesinan por gusto.

Extremely unlikely.
To receive thoughtful questions, you need to develop healthy relationships/friendships on askfm. This effort can take months, years or never. To be honest, most of the questions I receive are written by myself to myself. This might sound odd to some folks but, 99% of the shoutouts or anonymous questions are poorly written and are not worth answering. So... if I want to improve my writing skills, challenge myself and acquire knowledge, I am forced to answer my own questions.

---

Here is an example: I like playing Chess, but most people I know refuse to play chess. What should I do? Stop playing Chess or play against myself? So I play by myself. The same thing applies to most of my hobbies i.e. golf, music, etc. One final thought, I have played guitar since I was 10 years old and since that time most of my practicing and playing is accomplished alone. If I waited for other muscians to practice with me and learn songs, I would still be performing like a 10 year old without any skill or proficiency. In short, I learned many years ago that if you want to achieve success, do not depend upon other people, and this appiles to guitar, math, reading, golf or creating thoughtful questions and posting those questions onto askfm so I can improve my writing skills while also informing and entertaining my followers. /Alex

Askfm can be confusing and take some time to get use to.

---

> Are personal questions just for me? Yes
Select the "Inbox" and you will discover two soft tabs labeled "All" and "Personal." General questions (shoutouts) destined for ALL askfm users within your country will appear here under the ALL tab. Personal questions designated for you will appear under "Personal." Personal questions defined by a predefined list, where you are a subscribed member of said list will also appear under Personal. An example of this would be a text message broadcast from a friend to multiple friends included in predefined list.

---

> I ask questions and they don't get posted...
Using the plus sign (+) in top right, you can ask questions using two methods:
1. Ask People - these are known as anonymous shoutout questions which are broadcast to all active members of askfm within your country as defined by your Network IP address. Shoutouts only get posted when a user receives and responds to your message.
2. Ask Friend allows you to select which "friends" you want to receive your queston.

---

You can also ask specific users questions by selecting your "Friends" tab located on Home menu and select "ask me anything." Whether or not these questions are anonymous or not depends upon if the "ask anonymously" soft button located under the "ask" window is selected or not.

---

History Lesson: When askfm was first introduced in June 2010 it was advertized as an anonymous text messaging application. This appealed to many people who wanted anonymity and wanted to roleplay where they could assume fake names, characters, etc. (note: most of these users left askfm between 2016 and 2018) because askfm was sold and implemented strict rules that prohibited "offending" people. So essentially conversations involving sex, politics, religion have been banned.
The other problem that occurred as a result of this attack on freedom of speech is that askfm users are afraid to ask controversial questions because they know their account will be suspended. Once in a blue moon I might receive a decent question worthy of a response, but most of the questions, in my opinion, are uninteresting (which is why many askfm users have abandoned their accounts).

---

To entertain myself, what I do is post my own questions and then I answer my own question. This allows me to challenge myself. In a way it is similar to playing chess with yourself or playing golf and competing against yourself or perhaps recording music where you play all instruments and record all tracks individually by yourself.

---

I hope you enjoy you askfm experience and are able to avoid receiving askfm warnings or suspensions that are mostly without merit and are a result of other "woke users" submitting fallacious reports to askfm administrators who NEVER take the time to review and determine whether or not these erroneous reports are valid or not. They simply send you a warning and then suspend your account. /A

"More Than Love" by Alex

Successful relationships require:

---

- Trust
- Effective Communication
- Mutual Respect
- Empathy and Patience
- Loyalty and Sincerity
- Shared Interests
- Common Sense and Rational Thought
- Reciprocity
- The Ability and Willingness to Listen
- The Ability to Admit your Mistakes and Not Repeat them
- Affection (physical, emotional and intellectual)
- Shared Spirituality
- Fiscal, Social and Intellectual Responsibility
- Accountability for what you Think, Say and Do
- Don't play word games. Say what you mean and mean what you say
- Do not Lie, Cheat, Steal or Flirt
- Put loved ones needs before your own
- Generosity, Kindness, Compassion, Humility, Humor is also important to maintaining a healthy relationship

---

The most difficult thing I have ever done in my life is maintain healthy and successful relationships with those people whom I love. It is not easy or simple, and it takes more than love. It also takes kindness, humility, patience, courage, persistence and the ability to place the needs of those people you love before your own needs wants and desires. That is why I believe in a power greater than myself, and it is also why I follow the teachings of Jesus Christ.

разбирал флешки и нашел свой первый плейлист с музыкой в жанре кей-поп. да, дети, раньше музыку скачивали и хранили самое лучшее на накопителях. решил запостить перечень треков, чтобы выгрузить в приложение. боже, какая же ностальгия: мне снова 17, я влюблённый в азию рыскаю по страничкам рандомных людей в поисках чего-то нового. кайф.

When I was growing up, we'd wake up to a stocking on our beds that we could open as soon as we woke up. Which had lil stocking filler gifts etc in from santa. And then we would get ready for church. We'd go pick up my nonna, and go to the Christmas Mass that morning. Then go back home after and mum would start cooking the Christmas meal. We'd have music playing and we'd open the gifts that were under the tree from mum and dad, any other gifts from family members sent to us. And also more gifts from santa haha (obviously all by mum and dad but we saw them as seperate because we didn't know any different haha). Then we'd have the Christmas meal, and relax, or play games etc :). Usually my older siblings would travel down and spend it with us, or come down on the boxing day to spend it with us. And we'd have more gift exchanges.

---

My dad was also a part time DJ so every Christmas was party time to the max haha. Lights, lazers, bubble machines, you name it haha. And then again on new years :). I have many lovely memories at Christmas growing up.

Play at 0.25 speed (on a large screen, ie a netbook/pc) ~ at 1:56/1:57 . . . . . super-slender (white) fingers 'creep' over the lense, followed by hand, then hulking shoulders pass , all within , less than a second.
It's surely someone trying to cover the lense as they pass ~ ??? (or cover the red dot of the infrared ?)

---

I have two infrared security cameras adjacent to each other at my gate-area ; when passing at night, and the infrared activates, the tiny infrared lights would go unnoticed if you weren't looking at them.
~ but seen from my computer, if both are activated, they illuminate with blinding white light .

Thank you, Jеns, this weekend really flew by quietly and unnoticed.
Recently in the comments you asked me how our dog is doing and what is his name? His name is Ray, he was born, if I remember correctly, at the end of this spring. His breed is German Kurtzhaar, or German short hair pointer. This is a universal hunting breed, and since it belongs to the pointer, that is, it makes a stand for a bird and a small animal. He also swims perfectly, is practically omnivorous and, as I said earlier, has a completely non-malicious character.

---

We love him very much, he is an affectionate and cheerful dog, willing to play with a stick and catch up. He loves to eat very much, and eats almost everything that a person eats. Even he eats grapes straight from the bush, cabbage, finds nuts and crunches them. This is a photo when my brother and his dog were visiting me. I try to sit him down, but I'm very bad at it. The dog is very mobile and active.

reigned in the house….bringing happiness….

---

it’s moments from my dream 💭
about us…. it’s magical dreams places …. and i don’t want to describe them anymore …. because when you tell them…. ( my dreams)
they don’t come true with me…. maybe because wasn’t the time yet…. maybe because in that moment i’m not feel him 🕸❤️yet ….who knows…. but they should come true with us….
