What is your socially unacceptable guilty indulgence?
What is your socially unacceptable guilty indulgence?
Mine is plain/lightly salted Doritos/tortilla chips dipped/scraped in unsalted butter.
I'm now wondering whether this is a little too specific of a question and I just really needed somewhere to get this off my chest...
You're viewing a single thread.
I hoard many, many TBs of handpicked, high-resolution porn and VR porn, divided by race, subdivided by star, with shortcut links when the women do scenes together. I enjoy organizing and maintaining the collection. I enjoy finding new porn from new people or discovering girls I missed and getting their backcatalog. Part of my after work/school routine is checking for new torrents of interest and if I miss days or weeks of new content, I'll spend hours going back to find what I want until I'm caught up. All following strict, internal guidelines of what I want, not just everything.
The funny thing is I know for a fact that I watch around the average amount of porn as someone who just uses pornhub or something, and whack it only once a day to every few days.
I just love the collecting of it. ¯\_( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)_/¯
I mean, it's just like collecting baseball cards. Just because I enjoy collecting them, doesn't mean I inherently have to jerk off to them more than the next guy
Hello my brother in pornography! I’m the same way, it’s the weirdest thing. I love maintaining my collection more than I do “utilizing” it - it’s such a weird thing. As another commenter mentioned check out Stash, it will change your hoarding game (There is quite the active community for it too!), I have a tremendous library all custom tagged (To the point of even having the personal “emotion” of individual videos even tagged!) and I just love growing it and maintaining it.
If you’ve been doing this for some time as I have I’m curious - do you also have a number of videos which are weirdly nostalgic? Like you feel very fondly about them even though they may be low quality/not content you are particularly into today, but you can’t imagine not having them in the library? Some of my most “treasured” videos are ones which I would never seek out today haha
Edit: Fun fact, I’ve been a Lemmy lurker ever since the Reddit API nonsense, but this is the one comment that finally had me actually interact with the community. It is the porn that binds us? :D
Wow! There's more like me! This is the first time I've ever revealed this to anyone but my closest friends but I figured what the hell. So glad I did!
And yes, absolutely do I have those videos. I've actually been AI upscaling them (occasionally lol, it's a lot of work) and sharing with the community just because I find them special and have a nostalgia for them. That's so crazy, because I was just wondering if I was a kook.
Well in all fairness, we might both just be kooks! What tools/processes do you use for upscaling? I have a number of highly sentimental videos I should probably do that to (As an aside, isn’t it fun how the quality we found perfectly acceptable a decade or two ago is now horrible to watch? How did I enjoy that pixelated blur!)
I use Hybrid to deniterlace and Topaz Video AI after that. Sometimes I'll do some amateur color corrections in Adobe premiere after that and if I do I use Handbrake to compress it. All you really need is Topaz Video AI though.
Yeah, it used to look completely great or at least acceptable and now difficult to watch haha
i just recently became aware of software that's "the jellyfin of porn", called stash. fyi
My God, I've been waiting years and years for this software and you are its apostle. Thank you!
That whole vr thing isn't it just a gimmick? I see it sometimes but in my mind it cannot be good.
It's the literal best.
