I mean I'm not sure it could in its current state, much like Guava noted with the marriage thing, the context in which it exists is a bit different, in that you are not literally the property of your husband any more so you're really not "doing it like it's 1959" and similarly if you couldn't actually starve to death from no money, whatever you were doing could not actually be findom as it exists in tyool 2020.

It'd be more like... voluntary hunger striking or something. It'd have to be self enforced, there would be no way for you to actually give up your means of subsistence to someone else no takesy backsies.

It probably could if you were willing to submit to a 50s (or interwar) working class standard of living, because while they were often single income households, they sure as hell weren't single worker households, the women just weren't getting any wages for washing, cooking, cleaning, childminding, and doing all manner of minor repair and maintenance jobs.

I'm willing to bet that these #tradwives aren't getting the mangle and wash copper out and fixing the gaslights while our Lucy puts new boards on the shitter outside though.

Timely post from the schadenfeude thread:

quote:

In 1980 Terry Hekker wrote a book called Ever Since Adam and Eve that was all about the joys of staying home and being a wife and mother, and how that is a woman’s proper role. Then her husband divorced her after 40 years of marriage and she was given limited alimony and told to go to “job training” (at age 68). She then wrote another book called “Disregard First Book” about the importance of women maintaining financial independence.


First book: https://www.amazon.com/Ever-Since-Adam-Terry-Hekker/dp/0688034829

West Ham play at Stratford in the old Olympic stadium, you might want to make sure you're either gone before 5 or wait until after 6 if you're hoping to get public transport.

I've been a few times and yeah it's like, the stereotype of merrie olde Englande with Tudor and earlier buildings all over the place and stuff. Like, you feel like you're in a videogame when you trundle down a little alley and find a pub or a curiosity shop or something in a building that's been standing since Henry VI was losing the Continent in the Hundred Years' War.

Also this is one of the best bookshops I've ever been in: http://chaucerhead.com/ I could spend days just browsing. It's like going into a cramped bookshop in loving Morrowind :v: Sadly not run by actual Jobasha but

I got home from work and it's taken 45 mind to come out of sleep mode and it's still not usable. How is a new computer this poo poo?
Apart from what was said about updates and poo poo, the first time Win10 systems boot they have to load everything. After that they use a weird hybrid of hibernating and shutting down so that the system files don't have to be loaded up each time. If it's finalising after first install, it could just be slow from all of this but 45 minutes to come out of sleep does not sound promising.

Leave it updating overnight, delete any bloatware, and then give it a couple of restarts, see how fast it is. If you're not happy then return it.

Computer touchers:

I'm clearing up my external hard drives and working through movies. I have one called Game 1 and it is showing an attribute of SD. Most of my movies are just attribute D, some are DA.
S means 'system' though doesn't it? I've scanned it with Avast and Malwarebytes, and no issue found, just a bit concerned that there might be something embedded in it.
The file is from the year 2000 - ahem and I've not watched it yet.

The film is on youtube so I could just delete it from my ehds but intrigued anyway if anyone has any idea.
