I had a dream last night that I was driving down the highway and the roads were all empty but my car caught on fire and the doors wouldn't open so I drove my car into a lake but then someone in the car with me was like "it's oil!" and the lake wasn't water but oil so i was BURNING and the person in my car's face started melting and i woke up
I really miss my moon skipping dreams. I don't miss the car sliding uncontrollably dreams.

The theme of trying to find something that won't be found is still really pervasive in my dreams. The actual object and setting changes every dream, but that theme stays true.
Oh, I had a weird half-lucid dream recently. I'm pretty sure I wasn't awake because I couldn't move but it wasn't like crazy scary sleep paralysis or anything. I couldn't focus well enough to have directed dreams or anything though.
i've had a lot of dreams based on real events or things in my life or people i know irl recently

>>148873 I used to get a lot of inane dreams like hanging out at school talking with friends. Or even stuff as mundane as chatting with friends over the Internet, even if it was just text-based. It doesn't happen as much any more, but it still some times comes up. And whenever it does it's hard for me to distinguish if the stuff was in the dream or something I'm remembering from the recent past.

>During the black dawn in Norway, a whole series of stories about Pesta was written. One of these was about a ferryman. He was out with his boat when somebody suddenly shouted at the sky. The man roamed to the pier, where there was an old lady - it was not a regular old lady, because it was Pesta. The man said with a trembling voice: "I'll be delighted if I'm just missing the black dawn." She peered into the big book she was wearing, and replied, "You do not get away, but you can at least die a calm death." She got on board the boat and sat down at the other end. When the ferryman returned home he was very tired and tired. He lay down and fell asleep, never waking again.

Hun hadde med seg en sopelime og en rive . Hvis hun kom med sopelimen, ville alle på gården dø. Hvis hun kom med riven, ville noen overleve. is the original >>149100 >Under svartedauden i Norge ble det skrevet en hel rekke med sagn om Pesta. Et av disse handlet om en ferjemann. Han var ute med båten sin, da noen plutselig ropte for skyss. Mannen rodde bort til kaien, hvor det stod en gammel dame - det var ikke en vanlig gammel dame, for det var Pesta. Mannen sa med skjelvende stemme: "Jeg skal ro deg over hvis jeg bare slipper unna svartedauden". Hun kikket ned i den store boken hun bar på, og svarte: "Du slipper ikke unna, men du kan i alle fall få dø en rolig død". Hun steg om bord i båten og satte seg i den andre enden. Da ferjemannen kom hjem igjen var han veldig trøtt og sliten. Han la seg nedpå og sovnet, men våknet aldri igjen.

autism is really weird a lot of things are on a spectrum like schizophrenia for example but autism looks so different like a really high functioning schizophrenia person rarely seems schizophrenic but a really high functioning autistic person always has autistic tendencies
i have learned a lot of about autism by living with fish for so long
sk
Autisms can be fine Aspies are the real annoying ones
>>149129 like is it a stark difference between neurotypicals and people with diagnosed autism? surely there are people with like one or two mildly autistic traits?
Kirara☆ !Sh0sAiDORU
>>149134 i wouldn't say it's a stark difference for example i don't think anyone that doesn't know fish is autistic would suspect her of autism unless they spent a lot of time around her but for someone who has some training in identifying autism they would see the traits and probably suspect it at least a little bit
compared to something like schizophrenia or a personality disorder, you rarely can see that they have that stuff unless they're going through an episode
i guess the difference is that most spectrum disorders are episodic and autism is continuous
Samurai !KW2DbpWwls
>>149133 hey have you watched >>149107 ? what do you think? >>149135 will autism become a totally normal thing one day, do you think? i guess some autistic traits hinder effective functioning in life but a lot of them are just different ways of life aren't they
sk
At work
Kirara☆ !Sh0sAiDORU
>>149136 if you mean normal as in acceptable, i think they will be a lot of autistic traits actually come from biological differences in the brain though the way the brain develops in an autistic person is different and the end result is different (in terms of size) the autistic brain grows more quickly than a typical brain so it's generally a larger size than developmentally typical for the first couple years by age 4-5, the brain sizes are usually the same between typicals and autistic people overall, but some parts of the brain are less developed for the autistic person one of them is usually the fusiform facial area which is activated in typicals when they see the faces of other people, and it helps direct the eyes towards defining facial features and stuff like that in autism, we see reduced activation of that area which inevitably leads to the social deficits that we often see in autistic people, because their brains aren't identifying other humans properly in the way typicals' brains do, so they don't naturally come to understand the benefits of many social behaviors through normal development and socializeation socialization* in severe cases, the fusiform facial area might not activate at all in which case there may not be a difference between a human and a tree (in terms of brain encoding; you can teach them to discriminate)
autism is becoming very well known and pretty common or at least, it's not uncommon anymore, so i think that people will eventually come to understand it better at leasy early intervention is really key because if you can catch the developmental delays early (like before age 2) you can help them develop almost completely typical levels of functioning as long as they can biologically handle that
Samurai !KW2DbpWwls
>>149138 pretty interesting details fusiform facial area eh i've always wondered if i had some autism growing up tbh i was pretty late in understanding social cues and facial expressions
i think it's more common than people think there are some autism-like things that can happen to young people when we were all younger, pervasive developmental disorder (PDD) was separate from autism but was like autism and was characterized by communication difficulties, social difficulties, rigidness, etc- stuff common in autism, but it usually disappears by adulthood now PDD is included with autism even though it used to be separate and autism has become a type of PDD but at the same time, there are types of PDD that are separate from autism still although they're more-or-less combining all of them to become part of the autism spectrum, which is why we call it autism spectrum disorder now instead of just autism
when i was a kid i was diagnosed with PDD not otherwise specified which isn't a diagnostic category anymore but basically just means i had social deficits for some reason to some degree but it wasn't necessarily autism i still have problems with discriminating faces between people though so i might also have autistic traits which is why i think they're really common; i couldn't be diagnosed with autism today but i still think i have those traits
Samurai !KW2DbpWwls
>>149140 i see, interesting it's great they're evolving these categories and making progress with more understanding comes less stigma
i still have issues recognizing a person the second time i see them if it's been awhile i don't know if that's just normal or because of my crap medium term memory
i'm really bad at putting faces to names and vice versa and i generalize facial features when i'm recognizing people so when i'm driving around and see someone, i'm like, oh i know them, until i get a better look and can process their face better
the development of putting things like autism into a spectrum has been pretty hard there are a lot of people that are pushing against it, even though a lot of people think nearly everything should be on a spectrum (depression, anxiety, etc) some people think every disorder should be completely specific even though so much research shows that disorders aren't like that autism is really a success story in that it has managed to be reclassified in such a good way
insurance companies also play a role in it, because they won't provide help to those who need help unless the DSM has disorders classified in certain ways sometimes some forms of PDD treatments weren't available because insurance didn't approve of them until they were all consolidated into ASD
>>149142 yeah that seems pretty silly how can a mental disorder be specific one specific thing breaking a bone is a specific thing... being caught in a whirlwind of self-reinforcing traits and circumstances and fleeting emotions is a unique experience
Kirara☆ !Sh0sAiDORU
>>149145 exactly even different types of disorders are so similar anxiety and depression have so many similar symptoms that it's impossible to separate them completely
there are two widely used test instruments, the Beck Anxiety Inventory and the Beck Depression Inventory - Second Edition which are constructed using items derived by how depressive patients or patients with anxiety have reported their symptoms, and scores between the two tests correlate at something like .61, because anxiety and depression are just that closely related
but people still refuse to acknowledge it because things have always been done differently /// done one way, and they want it to stay that one way it's so bad for progress

>>149153 yeah i get stuck on ideas a lot but i try to avoid doing it at the very least i think it's important to take the research into account i don't think it's right to call yourself a scientist if you outright deny observable evidence on the grounds of being taught differently
but i think in the long-run, we'll be moving towards a spectrum-based dimensional understanding of those traits since even neurotypicals have those traits even if they aren't clinically significant
>>149159 yeah, things are progressing people used to outright refuse to accept behavioral addictions as real but now we have gambling addiction in the DSM and masturbation/sex addiction may be added in the next iteration too
i personally think that a general "behavioral addiction" would be better than specific ones though i feel like anything can potentially become a behavioral addiction
>>149171 I used to think that, but now I'm not entirely sure. >>149172 It makes life hard for the person with autism and also their family. I would not go so far aas to ssay that autism is a scourge upon the world and should be eliminated, but in most cases there are more drawbacks than benefits. >>149174 I'm probably being mislead by media sensationalism.
i think that many if not the vast majority of geniuses from the past would be diagnosed with autism today it's a tradeoff more than a disadvantage if you ask me time spent obsessing might be fruitful even at the expense of socializing
I think autism is much more diagnosed nowadays or rather much more easily

the downside to armo daffs is the long onset of action it comes in fairly fast but the WHOOSH effect where you feel your stomach constricting and all that stuff takes like an hour to settle down before the focus really kicks in i have to basically wake up an hour early, take it, then go back to sleep
>>149322 it's almost entirely mental, because it acts on a very, very narrow region of the brain it's not like adderall where it pumps the midbrain and you get the physiological stimulation, decreased fatigue, increased endurance, stuff like that which is good and bad i think it also lasts fucking forever, like 15 hours, so it's difficult to use just for the work day and then ease into nighttime calm it's interesting though in that it promotes wakefulness and reduces mental fatigue from lack of sleep, but at the same time it doesn't actually inhibit sleep (clinical findings, not personal experience) i've never had problems sleeping on stims though
it makes me really tourettes though less impulse control for me than something like adderall or ritalin but it doesn't make impulse control worse than natural, i don't think

>>149327 i took them before, last year around this same time i got some it sounded more promising than the adderall i was taking at that time i really liked it back then because i was having depersonalization issues with the adderall (i think bc it was generic adderall though and a bad generic at that)
but yeah, they help me more than having nothing. i think the adderall would probably be better for the kind of tasking work that i'm currently engaged in but in the broader scope of wanting to manage and grow my business, wanting to publish information about INFORMATION i think modafinil classes suit me really well they make me feel like myself instead of making me feel overstimulated
i don't think i can say yes or no to that question because i'm not really sure. too many details are tangled together for me to draw a clear conclusion

not much abuse potential either, it's pretty much all therapeutic oh yeah, it's what i was taking while in vegas, the same exact brand and pharmacy so that's about what it does for me
>>149330 I think I can give you a pretty good anecdote for the drug after my adderall script ran out, i tried the armodaf instead of the modaf, and within a couple hours i wasn't feeling anything i wondered why it wasn't working on me, and so i looked into the val158met polymorphism research related to modafinil compounds and discovered that the met/met polymorphism has noticeably lower reception to the stimulation from the drug, and i went and studied catechol-o-methyltransferase for about six hours to understand why the three polymorphisms behave differently under the compound and learned a whole lot
it obviously did work it just didn't feel like it does
Also I found an exotic meat company that has no store but they do free ssame day ddelivery for orders over a cecertain amount ($100 in city, $250 in suburbs), and charge $10 otherwise. Also tthey only don't do ssame day delivery if you order too late in tthe dday. And pisdibly not on weekends.

It would be interesting to see, and to compare my file distribution with that of someone else's.
i think that would be too layered to really draw much meaning from, personally i guess it depends on what you're looking at for the distribution setting up the qualitative boundaries might be the interesting part, but i personally don't see a lot of interest in that

I hate looking for jobs. Everywhere I look it's "look at this you could maybe do if only you had experience in <insert thing I have zero life experience in>" Or "valid driver's license required" which is pretty much a dead lock out.
月
>>149405 apply for it anyway if you think you'd be able to do the job it's just entry barriers because putting up "no experience needed" is really bad for recruiting i'm always applying for contracts which require X years of experience. i just put what experience i do have (if any) and whatever other relevant skills i have i get feedback on a ton of them and i end up not even taking them because i don't like the contract
honestly employers tend to not really know what they're looking for. they're looking for something and they'll know when they find it
>>149406 I don't even know if I'd be able to do the job. Most the time the things they're expecting experience in are things I only know of by name or even have to go look up. And the other times I'm plagued with worries that I don't fully comprehend the nuances of the position since I don't have experience in anything.
water you looking for? what kind of fields are you looking at, et cetera or are you looking for anything at all
Anno
Anything, really. I would rather avoid part-time employment at a store if I could, which is why I'm taking into account more serious, part time jobs. But I've got no diploma or degree backing me up and no real fields I'm particularly skilled in. All I've got is a smattering of work employment that barely qualifies me for anything.
>>149410 Is that T? I can help you look at some options if you want once i finish up my work in an hour-ish
Anno
Yeah, it's me. I'll be around.
There is one marketing position I'm looking at that I might have some chance at; I'm hoping I can get my folks to maybe help me put a lot of effort into a good submission for that. My dad's been through a lot of companies and a lot of job applications over the years; he likes to think he's got a knack for it by now. Hopefully they can help too.
Yeah that sounds like good help. I can take a little time to help too this evening. A lot of marketable skills aren't even things you'd think of putting on a resume.
I got -- actually let me finish this first before i get distracted
Anno
Take your time.
It's also a position in an e-book company too, which is a field I think I could bring a definite passion to. I really like books.
it's a shame that entrepreneurial stuff isn't as effective in places like that with higher minimum wage/cost of living like my contracting is a great gig for me, but that's because it's like triple what minimum wage is here if minimum wage were $15 an hour or even 12, i wouldn't be okay doing this much work for just a few dollars more than i'd get with an easy job that has fewer setbacks and more stability
you're very personable though so you might have some good options tbh, all the market research interviews i'm doing, all the phone calls are done by consultants who interview the respondents from a guideline compared to a lot of the people i hear doing this, you'd probably do a better job. and it's not like call center stuff. it's reaching out to people who volunteer to be interviewed, setting up a time with them, making and recording the call on your own time, and it's a lot more professional of a setting i know a couple firms in eastern canadia too i can take a looksie later
Like this is the -this is one of the few times I've come across a job opportunity page and for the most part thought "these are things I can do". Aside from things like "3+ years in...". But I feel confidence in my ability to understand the qualities of books and written works.
A lot of those are really broad statements like, i feel like they don't even know exactly what they want you to do i'd be weary about a company that doesn't have a clear direction of promotion strategy "data-driven merchandising decisions" this isn't something they should be expecting you to resolve on your own unless they're paying you something really good i'm guessing they either don't understand the context of what that means and how other companies are using it, or they've already got those systems in place, in which case they're still being really vague for no reason
Anno
I know.
Anno
>>149418 I understand where you're coming from. It's a bit hard to gauge with certainty which side its on though. And in the end, it's kind of hard for me to find a job opportunity here that gets me working with books. If there's a chance a job in that might be nice, I'm pretty tempted to try it out.
>>149421 B&M? They're not upfront about pay--but most job applications I find online are pretty elusive about what they're paying you.
>>149422 They've got an office, I imagine I'd be working there most if not every day of the week.
月
What kind of pay are they offering is this a B&M position or telecommuting
月
>>149420 brick and mortar i.e. physical location at an office
hello >>149420 sales and ops through a B&M workplace is so inefficient but that's not really a downside there's usually less efficient pay structures too so you get a lot of time paid for doing nothing hm it's ebooks you said? i have a buddy who does ebook business stuff i'll inquire with him later on >>149425 that's good you have a day off i'm working all weekend
hello I took today off. It feels kinda muggy today.
Anno
It's a bit cool here today. I guess the nights still get cold enough that warm day temperatures don't persist except in places that get sun all day. I wish it was warmer.
>>149436 i grinded for the 11 easy june orbs for three more summons and got a cordelia ive gotten three of these things in under 40 orbs lyn seems like the only really good one though, her candlestick and skills keep enemies from counterattacking
You've done really well with the brides. I heard Cordelia was supposed to be good too, but that may just be the work of waifufags.
月
>>149438 it's a +2 res/def for allies after combat buff for allies there are better bows i think what's pretty crazy is she has rally atk/spd, which is +3 to each instead of the typical +4 for one that would pair really well with a blade-tome olwen because she already sits at that spd threshold for being able to ohko anyone besides julia, robin, hector
Yeah, she's supposed to be pretty okay. I would like to get Faye as an archer, since she has an ability that keeps other units from being able to counterattack at all.
月
yeah that's what lyn has whoever she attacks, after combat, no counterattacks and then candlestick causes them to not be able to counterattack her i might have those in reverse order i'm not sure but either way that's really crazy single bride discovers one weird trick for disabling anything takumis are PISSED
In order to get Ranko you need to summon Brunhilde 666 times to unlock all the Ranko summons to turn them into a single ranko and then you need all the idols including ones you can only get by playing the idolmaster mobile game and getting to a certain level and then you have to level those idols to 50 60 or 70 depending on the idol and then you have to beat every main magna boss (though not their Omega Form) by summoning Ranko for the finishing blow and then you have to do some fate quests and it's just a mess.
Soo basically the product is overpriced and the singular prive is to drivep eople to buy the "double pack" which is the actual reasonable price they figured for it where even then they make insane profit genius
Samurai !KW2DbpWwls
yes they are very inexpensive to produce i am sure
i wonder if they made way too many and need to unload before the fad dies >>149523 ooooh so speciallll

I dunno, this is made of some special aluminium alloy
I just can't remember how exactly that kind of metal colouring is done it isn't painted >>149525 well he just bought it for shits and giggles makes 4k€ a month he has cash to burn

>>149545 no, gi fidget spinners decrease attention to the proper stimuli which means it makes adhd even worse but theyre marketed as even being able to replace medicine sometimes
>>149546 yo as soon as q3 hits you know everybody's gonna be dropping their own toy after this success i think fidget cube started this current thing and spinner followed pretty close there's gonna be like a million different ones in another month >>149553 i don't know, but that's trying to imitate nintendo that's a huge endeavor gizmos and gadgets are super cheap, especially if there's no special tech going into it it's just some market testing of different ideas and it'll be done

So at like ten this morning my friend told me to get ready early for FNM since he wanted to go eearly. Fifteen minutes ago I called him to let him kknow I was ready. He had fallen asleep and didnt get ready.
grr my eye is pink again and i have no health coverage baaaaaah
oh did i mention i saved a goat while in okinawa? its head was stuck in a fence hole
Kirara☆ !Sh0sAiDORU
i thought canada had health coverage for its citizens >>149610 that's so cool you're the hero of the goats
Anno
Did your health card expire?
Samurai !KW2DbpWwls
it is my proudest moment i had to grab it by the horns but it kept twisting and i'd let go every time
i realized if i just hold on for a while he'd get tired and stop no more trapped goat ... i bet he got himself trapped in exactly the same way as soon as i left
Samurai !KW2DbpWwls
>>149611 >>149612 i cancelled my coverage with the province when i moved and i've been too lazy to start up the new one there is no one to blame here but myself
Anno
Doofus.
月
>>149614 welcome to my life soon your license will expire and you won't be able to prove that you're you and you'll have to lie in order to get a new one
they printed me out a temporary license until the real one arrives but the printer fucked up and printed it across two sheets because they got stuck together and i asked the guy if it could be reprinted because that looks shady and he's like "no it can't " so i have a paper id that is on two separate papers conveniently cut off right between the identifying information and the ID photo >>149620 do you have any idea how upset i've been i can't even go buy alcohol with this garbo, or use it to board an airplane, or check into a motel and it's FRIDAY and my id hasn't arrived and i'm sure it won't somehow arrive over the weekend man i'm really salty i had to vent about that real quick
i have to renew my license this month or next month before the 22nd
月
>>149628 renewing is easy once it expired i was fucked how would you show proof of residence if you're homeless do homeless people stop being citizens the system is so messed up and getting a tennessee ID would have been even more impossible for some reason it'd be so easy just to fall through the cracks and stop existing officially
Kirara☆ !Sh0sAiDORU
don't you have a social security number
Maria
I'm on a learners lol
月
>>149630 yeah but what happens when you need your social and two forms of valid photo ID and anything expired doesn't count as valid and they want an ORIGINAL birth certificate, specifically not a copy but in order to get one of those you have to show the county clerk a current ID and proof of residence at the address listed on the ID there was literally no way for it to happen, so i had to go back to missouri and show proof of residence for an address there but it specifically has to be utility bills and what happens if i have bad credit and can't get approved for utilities in my name?
like it's so messed up it would be easier for someone to use my identity fraudulently than for me to use my identity genuinely
Kirara☆ !Sh0sAiDORU
>>149631 i've had my license for 8 years so i have to renew it now
月
and then they give me a temp id that has a million red flags because it's printed on two disconnected sheets of paper
isn't that a scary thought, though, that you might not be able to prove that you're you and never be able to open a bank account, rent an apartment, show proper identification to a police officer, use // pass airport security >>149636 it's totally realistic. you can expect to be denied a lot of things if you ever have an identity fraud investigation to clear your name, because now everything's flagged it settles down with time, but for like six months you can't do anything or open any new shit in your name and if you happen to let your ID lapse, you're just stuck >>149637 i don't know, man. i don't know. i was legitimately scared and i don't think i was being irrational
Yes, you can. I guarantee that you can. People lose their stuff in fires or tornadoes or whatever every day and they are able to get their vital records back together with time.
>>149635 My fingerprints are in the system and that would settle the matter of my identity oretty quickly. And if that didn't work for some reason I could just call my dentist and get my dental records.
月
>>149637 that must really suck to have that happen every day
There isn't much for me. Though I guess I have a driver's license again so there's that. But the last time I went to vote it was a little sketchy since I was using an expired driver's license and my health card to back it up.
it's a scary thought, anyway and it made me really irritated with the system for putting me through so much trouble also my paypal account still thinks i have a bank account connected if they ever find out that bank account is dead, i wonder if they'll unverify my account and not let me use it until it's fixed
i had my life in order once a lot of bad things happened
>>149650 i should really go get my blood thing figured out too i don't know if it's on any record but the army and barnes jewish hospital both have different blood types for me it's really weird i'm guessing the army was more likely the culprit to mess something like that up though
kannagi used to be able to get hotdog-filled crust from pizza hut UK we never had that here in the US i'm a little upset that sounds like a completely US thing
>>149678 That's likely to happen as the shows I have watched are pretty normal. Otherwise, it isn't likely to change anything >>149679 No one wants to see my old AMVs Maybe I'll make new AMVs one day. That would be a better option. But of course I don't really watch things so I have nothing to make AMVs of.
If they ever promote this guy ahead of me I'll neck myself.
