Well, at least I have plenty of time to do it now, I thought I had a 9hr shift today. Now spending 9hrs with someone who has dementia seems pretty far from work, but it isn't exactly riveting either.
try seeing someone about that I guess but for now maybe put the screen down

>>189440 ? It's 8:03pm where I am. I understand that it woukd be unhealthy to fall asleep this early. I want to sleep because I'm in a sort of bad mood and currently have no responsibilities that need to be taken care of tonight and also nothing I want to do. >>189449 They've been doing that less recently
Anno
well it depends, you might have to allow some time to toss and turn or whatever I know someone who goes to bed at 6 or 7 because he has add or adhd and is so unfocused he can't sleep
>>189453 I've done that too, but not as much as four. Anyways, being alone with my thoughts and no other stimulation can often be excruciatingly boring. I regularly lay in bed for an hour to an hour and a half trying yo fall asleep *to it's not fun.
Anno
>>189452 on rare occasions yes, but I usually try a number of things, I don't just say ' well I'm probably not gonna sleep, so I might as well be as WIRED as I can.
>>189454 If you only sleep 3-6 hours per night, you will never have that trouble take a leaf from unca TN's book
FormerRei@mobile
>>189456 I'm not deciding that I won't fall asleep so much as understanding ky sleep patterns *my and recognizing that it is unlikely that I will be able to fall asleep soon. >>189459 I did that and >>189457 Every night for at least three hours for about six years. Mostly pondering philosophy though. I independently developed a lot of western philosophy just through that.
Anno
Alright alright, I won't lecture you on your lifestyle anymore.
FormerRei@mobile
Also I'm using redmoon so the screen "stimulate" me as much. >>189466 I don't mind that. But my wanting to go to sleep right now is due to depression, which I understand is a problem. And while I want to not want to go to sleep, right now I still want to sleep.
I ended up in two theories one was "we really popped form nothing" and second was "infinite loop" but loop too must have the "original beginning point" and like they sing in "always look at bright side of life" "nothing will come from // you came from nothing, you're going back to nothing, what did you lose? Nothing
simply said whatever and however universe or multiverse or whatever came to be, there has to be a primary cause at some "point"
>>189478 I'm a physicist, and have been studying physics on some level for most of my life so I really just consider the big bang to be the beginning. Although the universe may be cyclical, we don't have enough evidence to determine it at yhr moment though.
Point is a bad word since it is tied to spacetime but idea is, that if before unvierse there was nothing then why isn't there still nothing?
so simply said, something set it all into motion and whatever that somehting is is in all practicality "God"
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
The First Cause as I call it
FormerRei@mobile
>>189487 It's not that there was "nothing" so much as everything was in exactly one super small volume. And we know nothing of what the universe was like before that, and for even added confusion there isn't really a "before the big bang" to even consider because there wasn't time.
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
>>189491 see now you take it back to "all stretch" aka big bang and where did that come form?
>>189491 Or so you think time could've easily existed before all stretch
but that is where scientific knowledge ties down the philosophical mind
FormerRei@mobile
>>189492 No idea, we don't have enough evidence Wait There are a bunch of theories but I don't remember them. >>189496 Well, time could maybe have existed before the big bang. But its not really worth considering because we have absolutely (under current theories) no way of knowing anything about the universe at that point.
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
>>189497 see both space and time can be infinite in all manner of meaning and big bang just was a weird event, where a portion of that infinite "plane" was compressed into that small volume which then in turn stretched
how could we know, since we can never see past bb and observable universe will never be as big as the whole universe
FormerRei@mobile
>>189501 Space probably isn't infinite Also that's actually any idea i had a while back and perpetuate as a joke to my friend. That mass is actually just warped space time. It sort of works mathematically for some purposes.
>>189505 Well it isn't really a physics theory and more of a philosophical theory in the manner of "let's make a thought exercise and see if we can have some math to back it up"
FormerRei@mobile
>>189506 It's a bit more rigorous due to the presence of math. But the fact that it cannot be tested (right now) makes it mostly irrelevant from a scientific perspective.
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
more like (never) how would you get information outside of one and how would you test it without somehow getting information outside of it?
>>189508 Maybe something weird with Hawking radiation. I mean its probably not testable, but I won't rule it out. Especially without knowing the relevant model and math.
>>189512 I'm going to go to Canada and beat him up so I win.
FormerRei@mobile
Oh also there's a somewhat recent quantum gravity theory that suggests that space is in fact discrete and not continuous. Its called loop quantum gravity, my friend talks about it a lot. But since neithrr of us know the math for it, i just say "if that were correct then the pythagorean theorem woukd be false as the metric would be taxi cab instead of euclidean" and then he gets mad when I draw a triangle and disprove him.
>>189515 I think this is similiar to "what if space is just a one dimensional line that is tangled enough to make it appear it is 3d" which is a fun thing to ponder, but has been prove nfalse
FormerRei@mobile
>>189518 I mean not really, but I can see what you're getting at. Also no because hilbert curve, also you can make one to one mapings of n-tuples to n-1 tuples and so forth

But you know what the world needs a PR department that names the new things or atleast the nicknames for them >big bang, dark matter, dark energy, god particle really... way to come up with CONFUSING NAMES

cause they were the actual MASTER SPIES >>189532 never heard of it but I ment more like general stuff
FormerRei@mobile
>>189531 AMC did a series called The Manhattan Project a few years back.
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
The USA moscow embassy was an amusing case for example The first time it was built, using local contractors the walls were filled with bugs, so they had to tear it down and rebuild it and then the premier or someone of that time gives the then ambassador a giant wooden carving of the US national seal or something and they scan it and find nothing and then it sits there in the embassy for like 10 years or shit and all that time it was BUGGED
Or an other interesting would be to follow the internal organisations like stasi and such follow them spying on the citizens and "maintaining order" would be a good platform to introduce some ethical problems and such and show how people there too were mostly just "working for a living"

Actually now that I think of it, I've probably read closer to 100% of them. Since a few of the the things in the gaku touhou archive torrent tgat gets updated every so often were actually done in english originally.

FormerRei@mobile
This is a good unit. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spat_(unit) Solid Angle is cool. It can be really hard to work with sometimes, but it feels really good when you solve it.
It's a good question because you can tell a lot about how a person reasons ethically from their answers. Your level of ethical reasoning is close to mine.
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
that question is bit silly, though since in 1933 hitler already had near complete control of germany in no way would you be in position to steal his wallet or would he be in a position where just 40 marks would ruin his evening 1923 and it would be bit more realistic ASIDE that he spent most of the year in prison
>>189565 Moving the time forward 10 years changes the identity of the question. It would have less value as an ethical evaluator.
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
>>189567,,, not really it wasn't untill 1934 when hitler began to amass his rap sheet sure there were the party condoned violence, but that is like tying blm or something to a modern politician or bamn
>>189568 The fact that he straddles the line between having done nothing wrong and having done bad things is important to the question. Watching how people deal with ambiguity is important to evaluating them.
>>189570 If you don't feel obligated to act a certain way as a result of your ethics, I'd argue that you don't have very strong ethics at all.
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
also my answer is "you aren't ethically oblidged to do anything"
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
>>189569 but the point that the question misses is basically "if a president loses their wallet would their evening be ruined" and answer is "no, someone in their cohort would just cover for them" so it would be someone else, not hitler who loses extra money in the end
>>189571 The fact that his evening will be ruined is one of the premises of the question. You shouldn't argue with the premises of a hypothetical situation!
>>189574 I would think so, yeah. But maybe if you do anything too outrageous with it the time police will show up and arrest you.
>>189575 You could auction Hitler's wallet for a lot if you could prove it was his.
Samurai !KW2DbpWwls
the real question is do I get to keep the wallet
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
yup, but since i presume you are sent back to the modenr time the money is useless
Samurai !KW2DbpWwls
then duh who wouldn't steal it best souvenir ever
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
>>189573 Ummm the wallet is atmost a year old and so is the money no one would buy it
rook
aren't you still ignoring the point?
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
the real solution would be to store it in a swiss bank and then get it back in modern time then you'd have a good amount of reichsmarks to auction to collectors
Oh, I saw a run of something in that a few days ago. The chairs are so far back now. All you can see is the shoes of the people on the front row.
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
>>189569 When it comes to ethics, you are simply to answer is it right or wrong or what is the most right choicet o do if it comes to being obliged it becomes an issue of morals while one can be morally obliged to take an action never ethically
rook
probably trying to avoid autism storms like that hoodie guy during the tomba run or the chair sniffer
Autism begets autism. Their response to autism is to get autistic about the rules!
I kind of understand what they are trying to avoid, but if I were in charge I'd probably just do nothing and let it all hang out. The embarrassing autism of the early events was endearing in its own way.
Only in the sense that I know I have to gather rusted weapons before I can really do anything on that front.

>>189597 Fortunately he didn't post the chair sniffer!
Maria
>>189602 Would you argue that it's wrong to punish people then? I mean the term here is "ethically obligated" It's not like you're doing a great justice here or something. I doubt that the 5 million would feel vindicted from hearing that you stole Hitlers wallet.
>>189605 If Hitler survived the war and said "wow that was wrong let's not do it again" would you be like "yeah sure bro whatever"
Anno
>>189600 Good, now try and jump the gun on these kinds of things. For instance , just because you might have webm of someone doing something terrible doesn't mean I want to see it
>>189603 Well, the prompt isn't that important. Maybe I should edit it out. What's interesting is seeing what people would do and why.
Maria
>>189607 maybe you could argue that you're obligated to steal his wallet so that the money can be spent on more worth while things like orphans and starving africans
>>189608 That's not your decision to make though! It's Hitler's money!
Anno
>>189608 The monetary value in his wallet can probably be assumed to be inconsequential to mostly anything. It's merely enough to ruin his night, so probably just enough for dinner and maybe a pint.
Maria
>>189611 Not anymore it's not :) Hitler made his money through unethical means.
>>189612 If it's enough to ruin his night, then it's enough to make someone elses night

Also the person isn't even sniffing the cchair, they're picking something up. >>189644 "semantics" Not really, picking something up and sniffing q chair are pretty different. Also "use a little judgment"?????? It's not graphic disturbing imagery, it doesnt spoil any anime, manga or videogame plots, its also not erotic so I don't think there's an issue with me posting it (which I didn't do), I think you'll just have to deal with the fact that its not unlikely that sometime somewhere you go on the internet sometime someone may eventually post something that you don't like.

ToN
That is debatable. Also you could have just veen like "my bad'
FormerRei@mobile
>>189663 It is, debatable. But this is such a high level of sensitivity that it would require significant effort on my part to determine what I should not post.
>>189682 I liked the first episode a lot. But it depends on a lot of things. If you don't mind the isekai premise and like mecha you'll probably like it. I like it because it specifically panders to me and the robot knight designs are cool.
>>189685 I groaned when the MC thought up his magic gunstaff.
Anno
I kinda griped with how generic some of it could feel at times. Like the spell names are right in that sweet spot of not generic enough to be acceptable but too corny to be be entertaining.
I'm also not a huge fan of "skill from modern Earth being the secret to being OP in a fantasy world" kind of shtick you see in a bunch of isekai.

Anno
>>189826 Arms is pretty fun too. But after like four days of consistent playing my wrists were actually starting to get a bit sore from so many twists.
Anno
I never got to play the original Splatoon since the Wii U was too tough of a sell on me. The premise of the game was super cool to me and I'm upset I couldn't play it.
Having a good reason to get a Switch was pretty convenient for that.
I thought about buying a switch but the only game I really want on it is zelda. I need more than just one game!
Anno
As it stands, I've got Breath of the Wild, ARMS, Disgaea 5, Splatoon 2, and Mario Oddessy--and that's only in year one right now. There's Metroid Prime 4 coming and a Story of Seasons in some kind of development. Plus if I don't hear anything about a new MonHun on the Switch soon I'll probably import XX from Japan at some point.
I'll be honest the squid tentacle for hair she's got going on is kind of off-putting. And both of them have kind of dopey expressions. But anything is better than Pearl.

Yeah she's pretty cute. There's a comfy romantic feeling to a magical cafe whose door appears randomly in space and time, bringing in strange and fantastic customers. The creator of that series hit on a pretty nice combo.
oh shit it's THAT manga I had forgotten the name for so long >>189878 it's a really comfy looking show I'm definitely going to keep watching

To be fair I think it had a different name or two before it got serialized. Or something. I just am pretty sure I remember it not always being Tsuredzure Children.
the skills gap is like there aren't enough skilled workers or something it doesn't actually mean anything, it's like a made-up problem that politicians use to make people worried
It's supposed be related to just not enough people trained for jobs in general like if there's a factory in a town and nobody is trained in factorywork, it's called a skills gap
but it's a non-issue because YOU CAN TRAIN SOMEONE TO WORK IN A FACTORY
it's literally a made-up problem coming from the fact that you can't get experience in a job if you need experience for a job bourgouis doesn't want to extensively train people because it costs money and they hate workers

>>189971 Yeah That example isn't even taken out of nowhere, I did that as a kid in math class when we were learning the whole "calculate the area of a triangle" thing Teacher was like "no this is wrong"
How some people become teachers is beyond me It gives the same result 100% of the time, there's not even like an obscure edge case, it's the same calculation
I just think differently than other people. Stuff like the Rorschach just makes perfect sense to me but because others don't get it as easily, I have to lie and pretend I struggled. It's so annoying.
I don't have any tips or tricks other than learn the material. I guess that's like >how to draw an owl >draw a cirle >draw the rest of the owl But that's the only way I know how to describe it
I think I'd actually just walk the fuck out on the spot I'm not trusting someone who thinks HAVING LITTLE MONEY is a mindset rather than an OBJECTIVE FACT OF YOUR BANK BALANCE with my health, are you fucking insane?
Well, his only job is to print out prescriptions and sign them for me so that I can get my medication. It's really just a formality honestly. I see a psychiatrist every 3 months.
『ｓｋ』
>>189991 Yeah but I think I'd rather the little money I do pay for that service go to someone who isn't actually openly hostile to poor people
It's not like I can just get my prescriptions somewhere else.
It'd probably take months to find a new doctor that'll take me. And then I'd have to go see them every month for a long time until they trust me enough to let me just come every couple months and get 3 prescriptions.
I have a really good thing going here. I also never see the same psychiatrist more than once since the institution basically uses me to train interns and stuff. The doctor I was supposed to have was sick today so they gave me this old white dude, but I usually see people in their late 20s/early 30s getting clinical experience for their med school.
I guess it's different in the US or something When I went to the psych to get on ritalin again after quitting since I was in like high school, I was just given a script on the day and after like a few months I just went to my doc to get it refilled if I wanted to
It was more convenient to get it refilled at the psych cause I was going there anyway, but I could have just asked my regular general doc for it if I wanted to
My medication is schedule II so it's heavily regulated because the doctors in Florida used to give scheduled stuff out really easily to the point that some doctors were called pill mills.
Anyway I just have a really good thing at my current place It'd cause me a lot of problems if I just walked out so I just played along

Songstress was talking about one of her many family members and their spouse. I don't remember if it's a brother and his wife or a sister and their husband... Anyway, she was telling us about how cute and adorable they act together and she goes on saying something like. "He would see her and immediately just tip her over... and go to town... on her mouth." I put this on multiple lines for a reason. She kept adding breaks to this sentence. And as you can tell it gets progressively more suggestive.I'm looking at my other friend as she's saying this just like Uh, there's no way she means what I think she means. She's too pure for this. But it kept getting worse. And we started laughing by the time she got to "mouth". It was really bad and she didn't understand why we were laughing at all. So we had to explain what "go to town" means and how doing that "on her mouth" is really ... exceptional. Especially in the presence of family. And she got super embarrassed. Essentially we all thought that she was being tipped over at her butt but she meant like... one of those dramatic kisses where you tip them backwards then we understood. It's been a joke this entire week.
I also kinda wonder how many in the soviet government acutally believed in and wanted to achieve communism, and who many were really just there for the power

You should also consider wondering about what those proportions were at different levels in government. And also what it was like at different points in time.

American families are either way different from families here, my exposure is extremely limited, or TV shows misrepresent American families to an extreme degree
Anno
Are you telling me television accurate represents Norwegian families where you live?
>>190073 Dnno about norwegian families, but i'd say shows depicting finnish families have maybe 50% accuracy rate which is quite good But then again, the bigger the market, the more products there are maybe this simply is a question of volume a huge market has more shows, and thus more likelier has more "crap" shows that have unrealistic or over the top portrayal versus smaller markets where crappy or half assed or too trope/stereotypical shows wouldn't survive due to low ratings afterall a 1% rating in say USA is like 3 million people here in the average european country it is maybe 100k
So "american tv is crap/less accurate/whatever" wouldn't be entirely right, but rather it is so, because the sheer market size allows way more shows, which for example looking at steam's game library nowadays, which is 95% crap ,is somehtint that apparently happens when it comes to entertainment.
To be fair, steam's library is garbage because they stopped curating it at all for a year or two

I'm glad they got rid of greenlight It wasn't a terrible idea, but it relied too much on the community and would only have worked well if the community had good taste l. Which is not the case. *good taste.
I feel like Malcolm in the Middle represents the average dysfunctional american family exteremely well. Most of the time shows get lazy and rely on stereotypes to convey their meaning.
Also I feel like US audience in general appreciates either an overly dramatic or overblown portrayal of family life compared to realism
FormerRei@mobile
>>190081 Malcolm in the Middle does it well, but it is still a bit exaggerated. King of the Hill also does it okay. From what I've seen Modern Family also does it well but covers a family with much more money than Malcolm's.

Also just a reminder to those of those not here in the US. Most illegal immigrants don't sneak in. They come in legally, and stay illegally after their visas expire. The wall won't help with that at all.

>>190122 Well, it's complicated. Part of the reasoning is that if you commit a crime of a certain level of severity (differs state by state) you can't be trusted to make an intelligent and informed decision in an election. But by that logic, (yes this is a bit extreme) people considered stupid in other ways should be stripped of the right to vote, such as having an IQ below a certain threshold (probably 70). Or even restrict the right to vote by only allowing people with a certain level of education to vote. Its clearly a bit of a slippery slope.
That's a great idea for a democracy If someone breaks a law, you remove their ability to impact whether it stays in place or not, that's fantastic if you're a fucking fascist

I was safe because I was on the third floor but a bunch of people got smashed to death and killed by shrapnel also the elevators were full of magnesium for some reason so the people on the first floor that didn't get smashed burned to death in a magnesium fire

Ignore everything to the left of the scale labeled 1. Those are validity scales and my profile is valid. They don't say much about personality.
The mean is 50 and the SD is 10. Anything 1.5 standard deviations above the mean is considered clinically significant.
Generally, a low score isn't interpreted. An exception to this is the scale 0, which is related /// is the introversion scale. My low score of 39 is considered interpretable there and is a representation of extroversion.
>>190604 The two scores there that are significant are scale 8, Sc, and scale 9, Ma. Scale 8 is the schizophrenia scale. It doesn't relate specifically to schizophrenia but rather to unconventional thought patterns and some other stuff. Scale 9 is the hypomania scale which is sort of about mania-like qualities.

When I shut away for a long time without speaking to anyone for months and not being able to tell day from night. I had a lot of difficulty holding a conversation. It was a very unusual feeling.
There are six sets of scales on the MMPI-2 that are usually used. The next one is called Harris-Lingoes subscales. It breaks down the scales on the clinical scales that I just showed you into smaller parts which make up the larger scales.
There, I have two clinical elevations in scale 8, Schizophrenia: lack of cognitive ego mastery, and lack /// and defective inhibition. What that says is that I don't feel like I have complete control over my thought processes and they are often hard for me to keep straight. Defective inhibition is related to poor impulse control.
On scale 9, I have a clinical elevation in hypomotor acceleration.
Kannagi@Ganbaranai
Sometimes I continue conversations that happened a while ago expecting the person to be able to connect what I am talking about. I notice my family is used to it so they just know that I'm continuing something from previous conversation.

i have a client who's really bad about restarting her sentences, but i think it's because she's a market research moderator so wants to point the questions the right way it's always like "so if i were to ask you, keeping in mind we're thinking--we're talking about product X in treatment--for the treatment of disease Y -- well, so earlier you mentioned the safety profile -- Well, so let's say it had--let's say the safety profile had (this benchmark) instead of... So, what kind of safety benchmarks would you like to see in product X?"
it's really kind of adorable the way she does it too
I also score clinical elevation of Discontraint, which reflects my unconventional thought processes and poor impulse control.
I also almost maxed out the masculinity scale which measures stereotypical gender role adherence. That scale doesn't have a lot of validity behind it and isn't really useful, though. Most of my elevation on that scale is due to my tendancy to seek the higher power differential in relationships and attain dominance over others, though, which other parts of the test reflect as well.
Hmm what else is interesting here
Oh, I scored high on physical malfunctioning, which reflects my lack of confidence in my body's ability to not fall apart.
I'm a healthy person so my profile isn't particularly interesting.
>>190615 Hypomotor acceleration isn't good or bad inherently but it's usually associated with very /// well, with somewhat poor functioning/

There is a kind of unwritten rule I think, to not reply to loads of things at once.
I sometimes actually wake up at night thinking I completely ignored someone. I think like a few days ago I was thinking how I didn't reply to a post of yours or something, it hard to keep the flow of conversation
>>190618 I think that depends on what you're trying to do I think your narrative skills are just fine, when you've got an exposition and you're talking about it I think your probing skills are fine too, when you're in an environment which piques your curiosity, you're pretty good about asking questions in that manner
i think what you feel insecure about is the ability to reciprocate within the channel, which is something everyone feels. it's a genuinely hard skill that people spend their whole lives refining
>>190619 i don't think clarity or conciseness come down to the cleanliness of a sentence actually i don't think the verbiage is really that important at all it's about the presentation and receptability of ideas. i think the best speakers generally don't speak in clean sentences or proper grammar because it inhibits the ability to connect ideas well >>190625 ooh i'm redoing mine right now or doing* mine rather. i just had an emergency work setup in here but i'm gonna make it nice now
I want to redo my room, but I'm not really sure what I want to do. I would like to have a couch with a big TV in front of it in here, and for it to be a comfy enough couch to sleep on. I'm not sure how to make that work with my computer setupi though. It's hard to use a mouse and keyboard on a couch. I also don't want to do all my computer stuff on the television, I want to be able to get a monitor in front of me when I feel like that.
>>190625 I have small room right now so I can't change things up much. But I love redesign things like that! That sounds quite nice!
You could have a laptop and a coffee table in front of the couch.

>>190625 this is something I don't really get having a tv and computer in the same room at that point you can just watch the tv on your monitor or use the tv as a monitor
I think the Rorschach is actually a bit superior to the MMPI-2 in the data that it gives. For example, the MMPI-2 says that I'm not very distressed.
The Rorschach provides an estimate of my psychological resources that can be used to manage stress. It also provides an estimate of my current stress, my typical amount of stress, and whether my stress is cognitive or emotional in nature. It also tells me where my stress is coming from and under what conditions I become stressed.
In addition to that, it gives me information about my cognitive efficiency in three domains, gives an overview of my affective functioning including emotional constraint and stuff, goes into interpersonal relationships as well as how I view myself.
The MMPI-2 techically provides more but a lot of it is useless data whereas the Rorschach provides me with data that I can actually use and generally no garbage data whatsoever.

>>190625 i use a medium sized flatscreen TV for my main monitor. it's nice both for watching anime from afar, and being able to work without my face shoved 6 inches from a screen all day. i do keyboard on my lap, 2-5 feet away from the television i really recommend a wireless trackball thumb-mouse thingy for a setup like mine because it's hard to use a moving mouse on a couch
>>190627 My room is somewhat small too, so getting a couch and a big TV in here without having to lose my desk will be an issue too.
>>190627 I don't want to use a laptop either, I want to be able to use my PC while on the couch. My PC will be hooked up to the television too, so I can watch anime on a big TV while laying on the couch.

>>190628 Monitor too small from bed. I don't want to squint to read subtitles.
What you could do I have a big monitor on the wall, a wireless keyboard and mouse a table near the couch? I can't really speculate too much without knowing what sort of room you have.
I am envious of some of the nice rooms people have on the battlestation threads on /a/ and /g/
>>190633 I'm thinking about getting one of those overbed tables. That may help with the situation.
My eyes being so bad add some complexity to the situation too, I can't use a monitor that's too far away from me.

>>190631 Are wall mounts an option? That's what I ended up doing with my TV. Which sits above a small entertainment stand. Which has a table in front of it. And one of those comfy dome chairs.
The only problem I have is sitting back and comfortably using the keyboard and mouse. So if I go to play a game, I'll sit on the floor.
The small tatami japanese rooms looks nice and comfy. I would love to have a nice cosy room with a kotatsu and all my things around me. >>190629 Have you had one of those done for yourself like with the MMPI-2?

I want to be up against the wall so something like that won't work. I like being able to look out and see my room instead of staring at a wall with my back to everything.

>>190675 Someone enters a different bedroom each night. When they go to sleep and wake up they're in a different bedroom. Each episode revolves around helping the owner of the bedroom.
>>190667 here's a very well-drawn sketch of my general setup i just slide the chair out of the way and watch from my bed when i want to do that although at this moment, the desk/tv is crunched up in the top-left corner instead because i have BOXES and it makes it a little cramped but something like this is my general setup i could also put the desk/tv facing open to the room from the corner if the bed was horizontal across the room instead

>>190678 no mc each episode or few episodes explore the new tenant of the now empty room and then they move out rinse repeat not just the life in their roomiverse but why exactly is it like that the whys and such behind why the room is how it is
>>190681 Wow that's a cute idea. We can get small glimpses of the tenants in their rooms and the items in the room would reflect the story Like one story would be the room filling up with baby stuff And then at the end of the episode though its all gone And in the corner of the room you see a sheet of paper for a funeral expenses and it's up to the audience to think about what tragedy occured

>>190683 I don't think ghostsa re good I'd rather have somehtign abstract that ties into the "roomiverse" theme like the microbes and such in that fuck what was that microbe/fermentation anime
>>190696 And that is the other path the "denizens" basically some objects would gain sentience and be tied to the tenant and also you know die/move away as each story ends
maybe tie it into japanese mythology and have them become tsukumonos or whatever the "spirit of object" was and have the "observer" cast grow as the story continues and sometimes have out of chronology stories, that explore the pasts of the initial cast that has been in the room before the first story began
>>190698 Maybe the room verse is actually a house And the observer cast is the objects of a family. Starting off with a bachelors stuff, and then growing into a familys collection as he gets married and has kids.
>>190708 The multiple people are the new family members Actually, you're right, it's just one room. But that's the twist at the end of the show, we zoom out and show it was the same room the whole time
>>190715 this isn't ment to be some story driven shit just stuff like mushishi it just explores a story about some set of people, with a minimalistic thing that ties the episodes together in this case, the room and the "left over" things from previous tenants
>>190716 I bet I could make it work if I used Fish's sticky bra things and like tried to bundle up all that i could into it
Maria
>>190718 Would the different make ups of the room share any common features? Like there's a crack in the wall that every tenant comments on And the way they each comment on it shows differences in their personalities.
I have sisters are different sizes I see a whole range of them. and my house was small so we all had to hang up laundry in the small kitchen area and radiators.

To the contrary, they are proud of their frugality and even have a Museum of Stinginess (Nuukuuren museo) and taht combined with Ostrabothanians being famous drunks and kankkunen meaning HANGOVER

It's good to be jealous. I heard about a guy the other day who's wife cheated on him eight times and he forgave her and tried to patch things up seven times.
If someone cheats on you once, they'll do it again. They need to be punished for such a grave betrayal.
I guess just breaking up is fine if it's a shallow relationship or something but if it's someone you really love and they cheat on you, you have to kill them. It's the only way they can atone for it. Dying, I mean.
I think it's probably fine just to cut them out of your life after one. If they convince you to reconcile and then cheat on you, then you should kill them.
I do believe in once a cheater, always a cheater though.
If they convince you to reconcile, you don't have the right to kill them anymore because you willfully entered that relationship knowing that they would cheat again. If you didn't know, it's your own fault for being so naive.

Anyway, to put the point more nicely Your conversations can be very repetitive and I just think of them as background noise sometimes
Your fine and welcome to have them, but you were wondering why anyone would want to move threads and that's just a personal reason of mine
>>190983 I think it's more that there shouldn't be an expectation for everyone to move threads when there's a conversation going.
ToN wanted to talk to Rika and me and Rika and me were in this thread having a conversation. TN directed ToN to the new thread, but he clearly didn't want to go there. There was a conversation going that ToN was involved in, too, so why should he be asked to move threads?

i find branch-off threads when it's too noisy to be fine but i really like being in the middle of a very knotted conversation and then have to jump to a new thread it really throws the conversation off in those cases i usually continue the discussion in the same thread until we're ready to hop over to the other thread doing that can offend the new threadmaker though because i'm bumping up the old thread and it doesn't have the >>> at the very bottom where everyone can know there's a new thread but that kind of raises the question if a new thread was needed in the first place

there's a lot of bad things out here really tight 1.5-lane roads for two lanes of traffic winding between dense forest where deer and rabbits jump out it's too dangerous to even swerve for rabbits you just have to hit them it's a 30 minutes drive to the closest gas station there's like four dozen feral cats living under the shed some of the boys are cute and they're always working out in the sun fixing their truck shirtless but that's probably all they do their whole life and that's kind of boring to me i'm torn apart by chigger bites but thankfully not too many mosquitoes it's hotsui desu ne >>191035 not exactly i'm about 100 or so miles away, i dont even know almost an hour to the nearest town that has any stores. there's a local gas station + diner at another lakeside community near here but i haven't been there yet or seen what they had. it was 4th of july weekend and everybody wanted to take their RV's out to the lake and get drunk on their boats lakeside communities are really weird because there's relatively rich people who have places out here for the weekend/summer or whatever and then there's the dirt poor people that live here year-round in trailers. some of the trailers are actually really nice though -- cozy, warm, homelike
there's probably some meth labs nearby too. i doubt they even know how to make pure dextro product i should advertise myself as a consultant
>>191037 Kind of, yeah. It's strange to experience living like this again. This is the kind of community I grew up in as a child. We lived by a lake and there was a mishmash of trailer trash and snobby pricks, also the occasional pedophile and coke addict aside from those outliers though, i feel a little less neurotic here. the way i interact with strangers and talk to people at the grocery store feels warm and natural to me i don't feel social anxiety here but i don't really want to stay here forever
i'm hopin rin and notso are still down for splitting a house because that sounds like a load of fun and i think it's helpful for me to be around friends i can function well here around these people, but that's only the really neurotic side of me there's another side of me that feels a little uncomfortable here
it's a lot of work even when you're off of work, there's still always work to be done gotta put tarps over shit when it's night time in case it rains gotta put everything away and secure everything so raccoons don't come be niggers in your direction gotta haul the trash out each night whether it's full or not, and you gotta haul it to the dump. no trash pickup. no home mail delivery. gotta roll out and drive 10 minutes on rocky gravel roads to get to your mailboxes tires go flat like on a weekly basis from all the gravel and nails gotta keep em filled it sounds like a lot but it's something for me to toil that's all i really do is toil all day long. i go for long drives on these country roads though, it's beautiful. i didn't drive once while i was in tennessee for the entire year and i miss driving
nobody out here understands the work i do though i tried explaining it but i have cousins and even aunts who are like "oh can you get me a job there? i did data entry before" get you a job where you nerd i'm a fuckin contractor i'm working with individual clients it's not data entry either ree.
some people just seem to like that kind of life though not doing drugs, I mean just doing everything yourself and always having something to fix up or work on to get by I can't say // I can see why it's an attractive lifestyle but I don't think I can give up so many more modern comforts in the end I'm too lazy to live that way

i mean, i'll admit that i've done a drug or two in my life but they've always facilitated workflow in me sometimes when i have those 15 hour work days, after i get done with work i'll smoke marijuana and watch an anime or listen to music in bed and fall asleep then i wake up, feel really relaxed, and am ready to continue on another 15 hour work day. in the absence of my health insurance, i've done other stimulants in place of my prescription, but nothing illegal. mostly just racetams or modafinil
ive actually seen some people around in saint louis before who were bad meth addicts, and i'll tell you that they still worked. they didn't do meth just to sit at home and let everything go to shit they'd do meth and then go craigslist hunting to find free or cheap shit, haul it off in a flatbed truck and then sell it -- go around and install air conditioners for old people for like $20 plus the old air conditioner, which they'd disassemble and scrap for another 20 bucks the problem is just they were so crazy and angry sometimes, but it's really hard to tell whether that was the drugs or the mixture of the drug comedown plus the realization that you're home is gonna be foreclosed and your child is being taken into protective services
it's pretty sad any way you put it. the narrative is that drugs ruin lives, but i wonder sometimes if drugs are just the last option for people whose lives are ruined
I think the best part is that everyone out here talks as much as i do it's pretty common out here in the sticks, if you stop at a gas station, you can sit there and chat with the cashier for five or ten minutes while you're checking out until someone else comes in sometimes the person waiting in line even joins in and just enjoys the chat they understand humor out here too if CVS doesn't have my cigarettes i can make a joke like "Well I bet walgreens has it! Ya'll just lost my business!" (even though i just bought vodka and other various goods at a CVS) and they'll laugh
it's the sort of shit that i try to do in tennessee and they just give me angry looks like i'm trashy i'm not trashy i like talking to people. i like connecting and understanding and turning stress into laughter
