i haven't had a lot of dreams recently but the ones i did have were pretty surreal
regular bang
in one i was in this ramshackle kind of house out in some kind of woods or forest and there were like creeks and ponds running through the rooms and i kept going from room to room so many times, this house must have had dozens of rooms like an infinite labyrinth house come to think of it i never saw the outside so i don't know how i knew it was in a forest but i did because dream
I'm also thankful that despite the constant spread and invasion of North American culture, Thanksgiving is one thing which still hasn't really caught on.
after all, woolies already has their fuckin Trees and tinsel up no time for turkeys
Anno
Thanksgiving also doesn't really work outside of North America Although of all places, Australia and New Zealand are probably some of the closer runners up The whole event is based on a myth of gracious First Peoples and dumbass colonizers I mean the dumbass colonizers is at least accurate but the rest is a construct It would be like Peru celebrating Guy Fawkes Day
Anno
That said as a turkey afficianado I will gladly take any excuse to consume big bird breasts
thanksgiving is probably my favorite holiday it always happens within a week of my birthday the food is usually a centerpiece of the celebration and i sure do love food autumn is my favorite time of year in terms of weather and foliage at my new work, we tend to not have a lot of work around this time of year and while i do like working and wish we were busier, i can't say that i don't enjoy the free time but most importantly i think that what thanksgiving is about, at least for me, is why it's my favorite it's important to remember our past and the mistakes we've made so we can learn from them, and the history of thanksgiving and how we've treated it as a culture plays a big part in that and more important than that is being grateful for what we have, even when it feels like what we're missing is so great or that we don't have enough it's still important to remember that at least we have what we do, and to appreciate it it sounds cheesy or corny maybe, it did to me for a while when my life was a mess but i wish i had the optimism i have now back then i think i could've got to this point a lot faster if i had
relevant to you guys, since i've just been rambling like some old codger i'm thankful for /moe/, for a decade of shitposts and cute anime girls with drama and feuds here and there for flavor and spice
I'm thankfull for one tg in partics, the soul mates parents made a table. It was a great, all traditional meal. Cran sauce, a bird, gravy boat the 9's. Everytime I cook with sage, I think about the stuffing. 0h and, learning soul anon was very talented at playing piano! Blew my mind!!!

>>1003078 I would like too paint an anime canvas w/ sponge, water color w/ layered oil on top. Probs been done before, this one reminds me of that. All pastel looking.
furries tend to be the most wholesome group you can run across in video games, is all of any internet dwelling demographic, they're gonna be the most open to newcomers and the most friendly overall
no one is innocent furries aren't always the last toxic presence in fact three rain furries ended up the reason* furries ended up being so hard by early internet users was incessant posting of furry porn in places is want wanted it wasn't wanted* swype actin up
I ran into this guy who had a robocat avatar with an actual, functioning HUD that he let everyone else clone, too That shit was neat It's got your FPS, an oscillator for your mic, your current expression, a compass, and a timer for how long you've been in the current lobby
well yeah I think there is that unfortunate nazifur community and various other factions of politics
regular bang
yeah and i want to make it clear that i don't really have any problems with furries i've hung out with a few at a few points and generally it can be said that their communities are at least welcoming i just don't like the idea of generalizing them (or anyone) as being saints or wondering why certain groups get hate or conflict in their direction in the same way i don't like generalizing anyone as being evil or wondering why people support them there's always reasons both ways
／人◕ ‿‿ ◕人＼
i just like to laugh at those libertarian youtube avatars furries/scalies
>>1003099 The problem with how welcoming they are is that they tend to not want to kick problematic people out of their communites. pedophiles and animal abusers stay in these communities because of this there was that big leak a few years ago from a secret chat group where people shared pictures and videos of animal abuse and some of the people who were in it are still respected in the community such as kero the wolf grooming and exploiting children is also common in the furry community
i just think assuming groups of people are one way or the other is difficult except australians they're all easy lays with no class

fuck this tgif tgis this week sick of black friday texts >>1003102 you a longtime member of the community? when did you realise was it when fantastic mr fox came out
i think you kinda have to judge individuals on an individual basis is what i was really getting at i'm not going to hate someone because they're a furry there has to be a lot of solid reasons you also have to judge individual parts of a "community" furries aren't some giant conglomerate one group of friends who are furries might not have anything in common with another group except that they're furries

>>1003128 I don't cook with wine, but if I did it would be with red wine or cooking sake.
regular bang
i don't cook with wine all the time but there's some things that just aren't the same without it stews and pot roasts without red wine, i can't imagine making one white wine goes really nicely in pasta sauces, pan sauces when deglazing, and goes hand-in-hand with some vinegar and soy sauce in place of mirin when you want a little less sweetness
a lot of japanese and chinese cooking use mirin or other rice wines a ton of japanese cooking uses mirin, soy sauce, and rice vinegar together those are wines that are usually nigh undrinkable on their own >>1003138 i can't see the fit meme without a bottle of kikkoman aji-mirin appearing in my head
Rei@earth
>>1003137 I can't see the word mirin and not think of the /fit/ meme.
I don't think my dad would drink mirin but I don't want to risk it.
regular bang
i suspect it would go down easier than mouthwash but maybe not as easily as rubbing alcohol that doesn't have bitterants in it i think it's only 8%, and tends to come in pretty small bottles but if it's that bad then maybe don't risk it
regular bang
that said if you buy one of the bottles with mostly chinese or japanese characters on it, then you'd be hard-pressed to find someone who knows that it's alcoholic
Rei@earth
>>1003141 its probably not that bad but I just don't want to risk it >>1003142 I don't really cook that much so I don't need it
Anno
You can smell the alcohol on mirin once you get a whiff though
regular bang
ah beer is really good for cooking certain things one of my favorites is sausage and potatoes with beer
when i make certain slow-cooker meals i'll use a can of beer and a packet of boullion instead of chicken broth

even if you don't like the song, this animation is great >>>/watch?v=MEVfHmjKOrM if I recall correctly it was animated by Klasky Csupo or whatever they're called >>1003163 okay >>1003164 you seen this before?

i meant to ask rei that but the question is open to anyone >>1003166 will check it out on that premise alone later

>>1003167 never heard of that comedian, ill look into him tomorrow i'm on a rap kick right now so ive been listening to the same six albums over and over
can't think of anything you wouldn't have heard off the top of my head you heard dj screws stuff although that's more like chop and slowed/ plunderphonics

oh yeah it's thursday night huh i wonder if rika's busy again

My impression last night was she'd be here tonight, but maybe I misread it or things change If she's not here by :40 and we'll --I'll make a thread and we'll get started without her
regular bang
more than an impression, i feel like she said she'd definitely be here but yeah things change
>>1003188 i'd be fine with not watching tonight the only thing we watch on thursdays that i'd want to not fall behind in is kyoukai senki ofc im fine with watching too although probably not all 5 shows if we dont have rika since i'm pretty tired

i can't remember if my yanners is c3 or c4 she's probably me best main dps besides ayaka i guess my raiden could potentially be a better main dps but i think she's better supporting one instead i usually run Ayaka/Xingqiu/Diona/Mona for one team and Yanfei/Raiden/Xiangling/Noelle for the other the first one being about keeping them permafrozen and combining mona's and ayaka's ult for BIG DMG and the other just being yanfei doing damage and raiden ulting every time it's off cooldown and then switching once it's over

I fell asleep in vrchat with some girl, or at least I think it was a girl, I met 2-3 hours before I've never, ever, in my whole life, fallen asleep as quickly as that
I was sleeping My headset seems to have fallen off and vrchat crashed at some point in the night, though Guess I should make a note of making sure there's something soft for it to fall on if that were to happen again
S C
well, some point in the morning, but either way I didn't go to sleep until like 6am, after all
still pretty hungover though I wouldn't have been able to talk to so many people and have so much fun if I'd been sober, but I think I went a bit overboard
I think at one point we watched like, the LoL anime or something? Arcadia? I wasn't able to follow it at all, and I don't even think it was cause I was drunk
thats an error i see a bunch of times in the logs idk why Stream mapping: Stream #0:0 -> #0:0 (h264 (native) -> png (native)) must be the video thumbnailer barfing on something

I found some 10~ year old concerta while cleaning.
from a cursory check, the likely worst thing that could happen is it just stops being as effective concerta's all slow release though, so chances are it won't have gotten too messed up, even though 10 years is LONG, man
halo is kinda fun considering it's free, it's pretty decent a lot of people were complaining about the battle pass but the cosmetics aren't that cool so who cares just play for free
>>1004052 They're PC compatible, in general, I think
Also I made a friend? I think? Sober?
I mean I got a little bit of vodka and cola in me but only after we'd already hung out a while Listening to music and stuff And then we played minigolf
she's real fun! I'm really awkward but she was real understanding so we talked a lot
she seemed pretty intimidating at first, but this other guy she was hanging out with kinda started talking to me, but after an hour or so he went to bed, so we were left basically alone after the DJ in the club instance had logged off I mean people generally seem intimidating to me, but women in particular I guess, maybe
I put on an old playlist a few hours ago. Then a minute ago I realized the *that Nebraska by Bruce Springstein started playing and I thought "What sort of mood could I possibly have been in that I wanted to listen to that".
I didn't even realize vrchat was like, advanced enough to do minigolf But it worked really well I did really poorly, but it was still a lotta fun
I feel like every time I talk to someone on there, I learn it can do something else Like the avatar with the clothes that pulse to the music, I learned that cause I talked to another person who had that avatar, and it happened to be Rusk, and all my avatars are Rusk
>>1004075 I mean the guy who initially talked to me isn't a furry, but his avatar absolutely was a furry, so that tracks yeah >>1004077 yaya I thought you knew

no i dont know anything about moe anymore i barely even load it
>>1004082 Fair, well now you know >>1004083 I left moe for a long time, and only came back uh, maybe a year or so ago, I dunno Chronology isn't my strong suit >>1004086 I got a quest 2, but I run it through ALVR to use my PC over wifi It's pretty damn good as long as you don't try to use the actual quest 2 to run shit, cause it's like 2 cell phones taped to a pair of glasses in terms of performance

which vr set do u gor got while i was in airborne school some dudes were playing that white one the ovulus i think
but yeah I was gone for a while cause people got a bit too Rowdy:tm: over here, and that still gives me panic attacks, so I didn't feel comfortable coming back until relatively recently it's been OK since then, only been once that I can remember vaguely since I came back
Rei@earth
I think I vaguely recall you mentioning that but I have no recollection of like big fights or anything in a long time
has nothing to do with fighting I just break down and get suicidal when people I'm somewhat close to get too explicit about their sexual relationships and experiences So I avoid it when possible
whoakun
me personally? i just like cute anime girls, or cags as i like to call them
I haven't been able to trust anyone offline, at all, enough to even tell them anything more deep than "sometimes in the past I've thought about suicide" Even though reality is I've tried once and plan it about once a month or something
Just can't bring myself to say it I don't trust human beings in real
Most of the time it just stops at "I feel depressed, it comes and goes in waves", and that's it my family doesn't even know, at least from my own mouth, that I've got any sort of mental issues beyond just having adhd, either

Eh, I'm like 50% drunk or something, don't worry about it I'm not like, feeling down or anything right now, I haven't for a few days really, though I crash sometimes right when I go to bed and before I fall asleep
Right now I'm feeling really good

whoakun
ya they sont like handing money directly theyll look at you funny u put ur card or ur cash in that and they take it then theyll hand ur receipt and change back
cause they pixk up the thing and move it to the cash part of their register a lot of stores have automatic counters tho too like you pur your own cash in and it counts it fast or a lot of hover technology with phones for their point cards
if you wanna pay with coins, you HAVE TO use that godforsaken devilmachine, and it won't always accept your coin, so you gotta try again that might not seem that bad, but you gotta realize Old people... LOVE cash They will pay with cash if they are at all able

I think I'd make a terrible maid. I have ocd compulsions to clean some things but not others and I can often manage them but sometimes when vacuuming/mopping/scrubbing I get really into it and do it over and over until its super clean and also injure my hand/wrist/elbow

How do you know if you talked too much and ended up just being annoying?
Anno
Only really when told so Otherwise you just gotta assume it's your paranoid-ass brain talking Or that's how I handle it myself
Rei@earth
>>1004208 I don't, but I have autism so that makes it difficult.
Anno
For a more useful response, it helps to not get so wrapped up in your own head and put the attention towards the other person People generally >>1004217 hey motherfucker let me finish People generally trail off or become more unresponsive if they're losing interest in what you're saying, providing they're not already tired At the same time though, providing what you're talking about is interesting or amusing to them, most people are usually content to let other people talk It's only really particularly argumentative or extroverted people who feel miffed about another person dominating the conversation
They seemed interested, and they were asking questions and stuff but I still feel like maybe I overstepped something and like, took over somehow
I just worry I like attention too much Maybe
S C
Or maybe it's just my brain going downwards after too much Good Feelings in so short a time span I don't really know if I'm really able to handle and cope with anyone actually liking to interact with me
Cause to me I'm not worth that
And I'm not used to it So it kinda feels like I've got a maximum of good I'm allowed to feel before I have to pay it back
