I changed my name on Twitter to "You" so that when I retweet something, it shows up to other people as "You Retweeted" and it's freaking people that follow me out someone made a tweet about how confused they were that twitter was saying they retweeted something when they didn't and i've been laughing at it like an idiot for like five minutes now
when I was Mormon we were really big on the "no working on sunday" thing and also no buying things on sunday and the first sunday of every month was "Fast Sunday" where we'd skip the first two meals of the day and donate the money that we would have spent on them to the church
I was raised hardcore Latter Day Saint throughout my entire childhood when I started to gain the sort of adolescent sentience in high school I fell away pretty hardcore
Kirara 🦃
>>333231 do you want to skip work and be a third wheel with us?
>>333238 I think that being raised in a conservative and christian setting was actually a large part of what built my sense of character, morality, and love for mankind i think that some important facets of myself would have been hard to develop naturally in that setting but i'm fortunate to have found them on my own (a constant questioning of authority, love of earth and all that is on it, curiousity of what lies beyond the coloring lines) but i'm grateful for the social doctrine of politeness. charity, and assuming good before evil that i was raised with. i also think that being in a structured envorinment has help me with my organizational deficits that would likely be much worse otherwise
I have been feeling kind of not good recently I'm hesitant to say lonely because I know better than to feel that way but I think it might be that

companies pull advertising all the time... it doesn't even mean they're judging the show other than from a marketing standpoint and what time slots are good investments why are people making non-political things political
Kirara 🦃
i believe Keurig pulled the ads in response to hannity being outed as a psycho rapist
TN
what is hannity show also
Kirara 🦃
one of those crazy right wing shows where someone screams at you about how bad america is because of gays and socialist muslims like obama
TN
socialism and islam do coexist in some countries quite well, but for rather different reasons
Kirara 🦃
yeah but obama is neither of those and it's crazy to call him one
TN
is he even religious?
Kirara 🦃
i think he's vaguely Christian he goes to church sometimes but i don't think he has a denomination
TN
>>333590 i'd rather look into his church goimg prior to becoming senator for a truthful answer
>>333583 As though advertising is for the sake of the content producer to begin with Or something they're entitled to
sk
Like what is their deal? Are they gonna boycott every company that doesn't advertise on Hannity's show? Because I mean good luck, you're gonna starve in like a week
sk
You can't even go to work at that point
Kirara 🦃
these people are fundamentally broken
sk
Reactionaries are, so
ToN
oh shit he wasnt kidding
Anno
>>333597 they were contacted about retracting their advertising for some purpose at that point they're in a situation where they have to because refusing to pull advertising is bad PR, and the advertising benefit is partially sullied so it's a bad investment there
sk
It's not important anyway There's gonna be maybe 1000 people in the US who would have bought a thing but now won't Their imagined power is way, way larger than their real power, and besides they're applying it inconsistently
It's just reaction
Anno
well keurig is weird because they're not selling their product with advertising, they're selling brand recognition keurig makes most of their sales B2B to office goods suppliers and water suppliers, usually regional ones and they're selling the recognition of the keurig name then the office places will get a keurig for their break room / faculty lounge / etc because it's convenient for those kinds of scenarios, and there's plenty of variability so people get excited to have a keurig and k-cups in the office for their employees because everybody knows what a keurig is and that's just nice to have that recognition
they're not losing anything by dropping their advertising because they're still getting free brand recognition by pulling their advertising and having people tweet about them right now especially bad tweeting from hannity viewers, is that really going to say a lot? half the hannity viewers are so cynical that they're going to see their own viewership doing this and think "why are these idiots getting so worked up about a fuckin coffee maker. i don't want to be associated with them" and then almost all of the other side is just against hannity and will applaud keurig if it makes it to their news feed so all they've done is go from paid advertising to free advertising
sk
Even more inconsequential then

are you going to steal my heart
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
I need a better computer chaier
Kirara 🦃
>>333616 You'd give it to me no matter what, I wouldn't have to steal it.
A cat, possibly kitten, showed up and came inside cause it's cold af I might have to go rounds around the neighborhood and see if anyone owns it, cause it's way too cold for me to feel comfortable just throwing it out I did let it out, but it came back
If someone owns it, it's probably so new to them it shouldn't be outside >>333634 No, I was smoking, and it came up to the window, so I went and let it in through the door It's like -6, and this cat is really small It seemed like it just really wanted to get inside so it wouldn't be so cold
Kirara 🦃
Do you have a cat door that it came in through or something?
ToN
>>333632 i NEED dokkan in my life holy shit give her to me
>>333644 Yeah. Cats are so cute that it's worth it. But it'd increase my rent by like $1000 for the first year I have the cat and then $500 for all the subsequent years, in addition to my cat's costs.
ToN
>>333648 I didnt really ask about that but it would make sense I would wonder where she was living otherwise
It wasnt a long chat either
ToN
I'm glad I feel good about it. That morning before church and stuff I wanted to ask out of spite to see if she was still in america. That changed though
Kirara 🦃
>Time to own my ex by asking if she's still in America >"I'm in Japan now" >o-oh
>>333651 right? that would have been hilarious to anyone but me at that time
im about to eat a STEAK
Kirara 🦃
I'm glad you're feeling okay about it.
ooh, steak
>>333652 That kind of thing has become really common in the US now. You get charged an extra like $400 as a one-time fee to have a pet and then they staple on an extra $50-100 a month to your rent, so they can say they're pet-friendly, but they're discouraging you from getting pets.
ToN
>>333654 I long for intimacy and miss the days of a Blind that loved me but yeah, I'm feeling pretty good in spite of that.
Like im not constantly feeling down or lonely, just the passing thoughts
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
>>333654 and people can't really asy cause what will they do move to another house?
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
*can't say no
Kirara 🦃
Yeah. These apartments are pretty much the only ones that aren't run down around this area, too.
I can get a pet, but i will first have to ask for permission well I bet they will say yes, but the point is that I inform them
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
I kinda wanna get a cat, but man does it tie you down. even my mother and stepdad don't really want to get a new cat, since it limits you so much
ToN
>>333658 Are you planning, when you move, to move to somewhere with a lower living cost, or will it be restricted based on your work
Kirara 🦃
>>333661 It'll depend on where I get my internship, yeah. Places like Wyoming have low costs of living and aren't popular, so I'll probably be safe going there, but it's so far from the ocean, haha.
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
Is fun if you are ready to move after a job, you can get a job so much more easily. Of course it is a big hassle

TN !PcAPtAiNJo
>>333713 Remember that even amongst fleas there are prolly hundreds if not thousands of species and so on
Kirara 🦃
A lot of the bugs here stop showing up even when it gets as cold as 10c. I guess they're not adapted to the cold, though.
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
but the finnish grass is weird as fuck evergreen untill it forstburns into brown
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
>>333718 if it lvies here it flies away during september-november or survives the winter
Kirara 🦃
I guess that makes sense.
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
which makes silver willows hc as fuck trees dem fuckers shouldn't even be able to survive this north but some gardeners just went "fuck that we want these trees in our parks, time to splice genes 17th century style" and now we have a unique genus of willows in finland
Kirara 🦃
Adaptation sure is amazing. And selective breeding.
FormerRei@mobile
I really want this to be an actual flag.
sk
it's real calm at least resting on my lap
Kirara 🦃
That's good. How old do you think it is? Does it look well-fed?
sk
Hard to say maybe 2 or 3? Maybe younger Not much older though i think
It doesn't look hungry, but it's thin not like underfed thin, but thinner than both the other cats we have here
sk
It really want s to lie down with most of its body resting against my arm so it doesn't fall off my lap Weird
Kirara 🦃
Is it cute? What will you do if you can't find its owner?
sk
I mean what can we do but take care of it?
It's cute enough VERY invested in sleeping on my lap right now, starts meowing if I try to move it
Kirara 🦃
Ahh, I'm jealous.
Do you have animal shelters over there?
sk
There are some, but they're not the most well funded And there aren't a lot, so there's a lot of cats in each one already
Or at least so I think I only know of one, really, and that's operated by one woman, it's got like 10+ cats
Kirara 🦃
What do they do when they run out of space?
sk
No idea I assume they euthanize the older cats or something
Kirara 🦃
What a shame. I guess some things are the same no matter where you go.
sk
yeah it's awful
Kirara 🦃
It'd be cool if there were jobs where you get hired to just take care of and hang out with hundreds of cats.
>>333737 It'd be cool, but someone has to pay for it and there's no profit to be made just saving lives
FormerRei@mobile
>>333737 Well I don't know about a job perse, but there are crazy people who just live with dozens of cats.
Kirara 🦃
>>333741 destroy the system so that we can protect the cats anarchy is the only way
>>333742 It seems like those cats live in pretty bad environments most of the time, though. The people that do that aren't really fit to take care of them all without extra money.
Maybe we should make a non profit that gives money to crazy cat people so they can afford to take care of all of their cats.
Kirara 🦃
What if we made a big cat park and everyone could come and hang out with the cats anytime they want to and they can watch the cats online and do stuff like that.
sk
Maybe I could makea donation funded internet stream of a bunch of cats in my basement just hanging out My basement's big and unused
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
just give it a cute name

you can just go and hang out with all kinds of cats that'd be so nice just spend a day with cats

get a collar for your cat always seriously makes so much easier for whoever finds it to well contact you

Kirara 🦃
I'm the kind of person that gets paranoid about my cat getting hurt so I don't let them outside.
you could even call her back by just going "mittens, you forgot youri bloody collar" and then she'd come looking all "okay just put i on quick you bitch"

Kirara 🦃
I feel way safer just not letting my cat outside. I guess it'd be fine if I took a cat with me somewhere but not just freely letting them go. I can get kind of possessive, though.
Well, it seems to be housetrained at leastt Or maybe not? Hard to know, it's in the box, but didn't do anything
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
well it is a sandbox so seems likea good spot to go for most cats even if not really trained
Kirara 🦃
I wonder if it's got a UTI or something. That's what my cat always did when he had a UTI. He'd just stand in the box.
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
I'd still put my money on abandoned cat not runaway would explain thinness as runaways are usually found or return home before they really start to lose weight

Fifteenth night is coming and the nightmares still increase The monsters in my head just go on creeping On my skin there's sand from distant beaches, foreign seas I'd better go and ty to do some sleeping
I look at you, I see the world I don't where I roam I'm like a madman I cry for you to love me. You never take me in your arms nowhere is my home I am down and you're so high above me
>>333861 check this one at the start of this mix >>>/watch?v=JyNYkWKHf1Q i don't like the lofi trend going around that much but there's some i do
Yuu
Yeah, that's the same track. Just edited a little differently, I think. I like the song of storms in all of its various forms though. I really like the song of storms.
Anno
i thought so it sounded the same thats why i thought of it
Kyannyagi
>>333861 That sounds so nice. It makes me want to finally play a zelda game
ToN
I thought about picking up an episode of blend s just now but ill nab it when it finishes
Kirara 🦃
It's really good
Yuu
Yeah, the latest episode was pretty good.
Kirara 🦃
How did you like Net-juu?
Yuu
Well, it's hanging in there. I think next episode will determine my opinion on this whole arc.
Kirara 🦃
Lily is pretty frustrating. She's needs to be a little more aggressive, but she's way too much of a nice guy.
Yuu
Yeah. How I feel about the show will depend on how all this works out. Morimori is a bit stupid too.
Kirara 🦃
Yeah, she totally is.
Lily needs to tell her she knows that Mori is Hayashi, though. He's going to look chou creepy if he doesn't.
Yuu
Yeah, he needs to resolve that situation ASAP.
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
fuck I missed a good screencap there was a giant standing on top of a flying dragon for a moment looked so awesome and weird at the same time
Kirara 🦃
>>333874 I guess it's hard to do, though. It would have been awkward to do it on their date unless he asked her about games and acted like, oh! this is my chara name! Actually, yeah, he should have done that!
Anno
give potato
Yuu
>>333876 Lily needs to be a man about it and just bust through! The PV has lots of game scenes so I hope that wil lbe the case.
Kirara 🦃
>>333878 I hope so. He needs to give Koiwai the what-for, too. He was clearly interested and Koiwai tried to move in! And then he just relinquished to Koiwai when he gave him opportunities to get together with Mori! Lily is kind of a frustrating guy, maybe.
Yuu
>>333879 Yeah, I think Lily may just be a frustrating person.
Kirara 🦃
Well, at least the writing is pretty good. Even if it's a little frustrating.
Work resulted in me taking an anime break I need to fix that
ToN
I look forward to getting my box of cute things
Part of me wants to use one or two for my work area but then ill be exposed
Yuu
This Ro-chan is pretty cute. http://www.amiami.com/top/detail/detail?gcode=FIGURE-034160&page=top
Kirara 🦃
Yeah, it's not bad. I don't think I could get a Ro statue, though.
>>333886 This season is really good. I didn't think they'd keep up with the quality of S1, but I think they've done way better so far.
Yuu
Is it because she's too slutty?
>>333890 I think because much of the introductory and character establishment stuff is out of the way, they have been able to concentrate on the episodic nature of the show and the world building, which are two places that the series shines.
Kirara 🦃
Yeah. Nendos or normal scale figures are probably fine because even a normie should be able to see that they're cute. But if you get a slutty one, then it's over for you if anyone sees it.
>>333891 Yeah, probably. There are some manga chapters I'm really excited to see adapted.
Yuu
Ro is like borderline slutty, though. She's just summery!
I don't think normies understand cute things in general. Normies are terrible!
Kirara 🦃
In general, that's true. But the swimsuit is a problem there. Especially with the tan lines. I think it pushes it too far for a figure I'd be willing to have.
Normies don't really understand cute things, but if you tell them something is cute, they can usually accept it as long as it's not too bizarre or lewd.
Yuu
I agree that she's vaguely lewd, but I wonder if a normie would be able to really be able to appreciate that vague lewdness. Normies have very dull senses so things need to be spelled out for them!
Kirara 🦃
That's a good point. I'd still worry about it a little bit, though. I don't think it's cute enough to push me to the point where I'm willing to risk that.
Yuu
I think that's reasonable. It's a very nice figure though. I don't mind the appearance, but I'm really only willing to go over 10,000 yen for things I really really like.
>>333899 Well, even if you like them, I think they have a bad stigma sometimes. Especially if you're showing them off.
>>333898 Yeah, I wouldn't be willing to pay that much unless it was for something really incredible.
Yuu
Yeah. The only thing I have ordered over 10000 yen is that really nice Shigure casual figure.
Kirara 🦃
Did that come yet?
Yuu
No, it actually won't be released until June 2018. That's so far away! The world may have ended by then. You can't preorder it anymore though. They closed preorders really quickly, it was really popular.
Kirara 🦃
Wow, that is a long way away.
Yuu
Yeah, it's a really long time, isn't it?
Kirara 🦃
Yeah, I'm a little surprised.
Kyannyagi
Maybe when I earn a little more I'll buy figurines.
Yuu
>>333906 I think it's because it's a highly anticipated figure of a popular character.
>>333914 I've got some of those lying around, too.
>>333915 I would get them if they had more poses, like different arms and legs and stuff like that.
Yuu
I would get them if they had one or two more super good outfits. I like the maid outfit and the kimono, and the chenogasm is good too. If there were good ones in the places of the other two, I would probably get it.
Kirara 🦃
Yeah, they want you to get the second set, too. The safari hat comes with the second set even though the safari outfit comes with the first set.
Yuu
>>333918 Wow, how devious! What other outfits are in the second set?
Kirara 🦃
These ones.
FormerRei@mobile
Fuck Can't go on the Craigslist adventure.
Yuu
>>333920 The second half doesn't look that great either.
Kirara 🦃
Yeah. I don't really think any of them are good enough to warrant buying either set.
I bet they'll eventually come out with a new Nendoroid More maid thing like they did with the wedding stuff.
Yuu
I would super buy a nendoriod maid and butler set.
Kirara 🦃
Yeah, that'd be really nice. I hope they'll do something like that eventually.
Yuu
It's kind of surprising they haven't. Such a thing would sell quite well.
I feel like you have the capacity but not the willingness.
Yuu
>>333956 To become an elite NEET, or to work until I die?
Kirara 🦃
To become an elite NEET.
Yuu
I'd love to be an elite NEET but I'm too scared.
Kirara 🦃
Yeah, I don't think you have the willingness to do it.
If I could be an elite NEET, I'd probably just travel all over on a whim. If I had the money to, at least.
Yuu
Well, it's not about willingness, it's about fear. I could make the money side work but I'm afraid of what I'd do in the future if I didn't have work experience and stuff.
Kirara 🦃
Like, if you had to go back to work or something?
Yuu
Yeah, like what happens if I run out of money and have to go back to work and I'm old and stuff.
Kirara 🦃
Yeah, I guess that'd suck. I guess you can't really just stop working for like 10-20 years and then get another job easily.
Yuu
Yeah, that's what I'm afraid of. And fear is why I work!
Kirara 🦃
If only we lived in a world where you could only work when you want to.
Yuu
Yeah, or they could give me money just for existing.
Anno
Like universal basic income?
Kirara 🦃
That'd be the life.
Yuu
Yeah, I'd take it easy and do nothing.
Kirara 🦃
At least we can have our dreams of such a world.
Maria
If only I could marry someone ridiculously rich
Kirara 🦃
That'd really be something!
Samu 😈 !KW2DbpWwls
NEETdom can be cool but being at an office with some people you like isn't all that bad tbh
Kirara 🦃
I think I'll probably enjoy having a job once I have one. Going to school is such a pain. I think I'd manage to be happier with a job.
Kirara 🦃
Of course, when I had a job, I thought I'd be happier at school.
Samu 😈 !KW2DbpWwls
school is something I look back on fondly that feeling of being part of a big community
Yuu
Yeah, I miss being a student. Enjoy it!
Kirara 🦃
It can be hard to enjoy it! It'll probably get better next semester when I have clients and am providing therapy.
I feel like school is a big community but it's one that I can't really be a part of. My program is really big into drinking so all their get-togethers have tons of drinking and stuff. Just the other day, a professor offered to buy me a beer even, haha.
Maria
I've never really felt like school was a community here I just go to class then come home
Kyannyagi
I wish I could turn back time and go back to school again, I should have not been such a slacker.
Maria
That'll be me in a few years
Yuu
>>333979 Well, not drinking certainly causes issues. I miss the carefree student life though. I miss school a lot!
Kirara 🦃
I'd probably enjoy school a lot more if it weren't for deadlines. If I could just go and learn instead of having to do assignments all the time and exams and stuff, I think it'd be a better experience. School just isn't designed for neurodivergent people.
Samu 😈 !KW2DbpWwls
maybe I'll go back one day get a masters in like machine learning
Kyannyagi
You should be able to attend school all your live and learn at your own pace.
I might just stop when I get my Master's. I don't really know if I'll keep going after that, anymore.
Maria
what's left after the masters
Kirara 🦃
The doctorate. I'm in a doctorate program right now, but I get my Master's along the way. So I could stop after I get my Master's and just get a job with that if I wanted to.
Maria
Can you still do that criminal psych thing with just the masters?
Kirara 🦃
No, but I'm not so sure I want to do that anymore. I've become really dissatisfied with the criminal justice system and I'm not sure I want to be a part of it now. I've been thinking about doing therapy and substance abuse counseling and stuff.
Maria
Wow I thought you said you hated therapy
Kirara 🦃
Well, I haven't done real therapy before, so I'm not sure if I'll like it yet. I used to think I'd hate it but I'm not sure anymore.
Yuu
The criminal justice system has you feeling disillusioned huh?
Kirara 🦃
Yeah, it does. I'm just not so sure I can make a positive change in people's lives as part of it.
Maria
>>333994 Maybe at the end of this it'll turn out you actually hate psychology!
>>333996 The system is made up of and ran by people. If people like you don't join it then it'll never be run in a way that you like
Kirara 🦃
>>333997 It would really suck to get a Master's in something I hate.
I don't know. The job I'd be doing wouldn't be able to make much of a positive impact. The system would still be eating people up and abusing and exploiting them. Cops would still be doing shitty things. Originally, my end goal was actually to pursue a career in politics and work towards prison reform, but I'm not so sure that's possible anymore. I don't think you can make change through politics in the US anymore.

>>333999 >trips on a liveboard >worth checking Check yourself out the door how bout dat
>>333998 Why couldn't you make a change through politics
>>333996 Well, it can definitely be difficult to help people once they've gotten into trouble with the criminal justice system.
Kirara 🦃
>>334000 Because I don't think any of that stuff matters that much anymore. Almost everyone in congress is basically the same person, and there's a system in place to ensure that people that are in-line with the status-quo get elected. Neither side is even hiding that anymore. And even if I somehow do get in, what then? I'll be one person against like everyone else? You can't make change like that, either.
>>334002 Yeah. I think I could do more good for them as a therapist than I could as someone that gives them risk assessment tests.
ToN
I am here to post cuties again
Maria
>>334003 Well what if two people who were likeminded were inspired by you and decided to do the same And then four people were inspired by those people You'd be setting off a chain reaction
>>334005 What if the sky falls on my head tomorrow? I don't think that's going to happen. At least not for another 10-20 years.
Maria
>>334007 isn't that what being a leader is all about? It's not you yourself that makes the change, it's about leading others to make changes
>what if the sky falls on my head tomorrow Catch it
Kirara 🦃
>>334008 I think there are other ways to be a leader. I don't have to be a part of that festering hellhole government to convince people to make changes. The government just isn't designed for stuff like that. The system is bad. I don't think I can fix the system, but I want to at least make life more bearable for the people that are in that system. And I feel like becoming a congressperson would disconnect me from the people that I want to protect and help.
Yuu
Changing the system from within itself is one of those things that is hard.
Kirara 🦃
Real change comes from Lelouch, not Suzaku.
Yuu
That's a funny way to put it.
ToNMaria
not eben justice i wan to get troof
Kirara 🦃
>>334012 That's just how I feel about it now! I don't think we can rely on the government to save us anymore.
ToN
I wonder if theres a way to organize photos on this phone and i havent realized it yet If i take too long to pick an image i dc from moe
Maria
>>334015 So do I just need to become president, do a really shitty job, and then fake my own death to make everything better?
Kirara 🦃
It's funny that I used to be so obsessed with rules.
ToN
wow there is a way to sort everything sugoi >>334018 Me too Though I dont think i was or currently am as far on either side as you have been
>>>/watch?v=TKyr25J7D-I I'd like for more bands with diverse asdortments of instruments to be popular again.
Anno
>>334075 Oh that's the show you're watching? It's a seriously good show. One of the best things from its season.
Koi-
I was reading a manga about eating food when the chef gave the main character a free "Lassi" and I had no idea what it was so I looked it up In the wikipedia article, it mentioned a bunch of things and then mentioned this show. Apparently it shows up in episode 11 So I read a manga about eating food, and it led me to watching an anime about eating food.
FormerRei@mobile
>>334080 Shouldn't it have led to you eating food?
Koi-
I already ate. I had ramen. And then my friend showed me that the next chapter of Ramen Daisuki Koizumi-san was up. So I ... oh wait no I didn't even get to reading that yet lol I HAVE FOUR TABS OF UNREAD MANGA
>>334112 Then I'm sure you don't want to experience it alone! Or you can tell me after you find out.
Yuu
Yeah, but what if eldridtch beings have to be enemies?
Anno
Just move on up.
Kirara 🦃
Would we have to be enemies if I remained human and you didn't?
Yuu
That way we wouldn't have to fight!
Koi-
it feels good
Kirara 🦃
>>334117 That's fine, then. If I have an Eldritch being on my side, I probably don't have to work anyway. I can just hang out and occasionally sacrifice something to you if you want.
Yuu
Yeah, I'm sure sloth would be one of my elements or attributes or whatever.
Kirara 🦃
This sounds like a pretty good turn of events. I hope it works out.
Yuu
Taking it easy is really important.
Kirara 🦃
You might not be able to take it easy while you're looking for a method to become Eldritch, though.
Yuu
I'm sure there's a way to do it without working too hard. It wouldn't make much sense if you had to work really hard to become an eldridtch aspect of sloth, right?
