lots of nervousness yeah

But you've dealt with them

how do you know about them do you deal with them too
Anno
I feel chopped up too if that's what you're asking
Anno
i'd rather you weren't chopped up that sounds rather tragic
Going to the eye doctor is a real bummer though. Wait around for 45 minutes so they can blow in your eyes and tell you that you still can't see shit. Then you get billed for it.
Anno
Yeah but at least it's money spent to know exactly what sort of money you need to spend on glasses.

you are a correct

>microwaving your leftover pizza >not just eating it cold
Anno
so can you still have peanuts since they're legumes, or are you counting those as nuts too?
Anno
no, it wasnt leftover, it was digiorno
which makes it even worse of me because digiorno is really top shit when you make it right
it makes it worse for a slew of other reasons besides that
Anno
list 1 or more
bangu
1. because some amount of our economy is wasted on keeping a mouthbreather as retarded as you alive
Anno
:(
Yuu
It's worth it to oven bake stuff like that. Microwaves ruin food.
Anno
That makes me sick LUL
banguAnno
microwaves are for soup and like melting cheese sometimes, or heating some beans up
Anno
i managed to save a whole 20 minutes though
bangu
the thing i've found microwaves to be most handy for are defrosting frozen meats (which is rare because i hate freezing meat) and heating water for things when you're already using a lot of stove space for other things it's a lot // you can also use microwaves to keep something hot temporarily set it to a super-low power and put something in there for like 10 minutes while you're cooking another part of the dish that way the microwave effect doesn't really ruin the food at all and it doesn't get cold

fuck i wish the tickets for all the shows i just mentioned would be uhhhh like 300 dollars and i usually spend like 50 on drinks when i go out 30 on an uber yeah no i'm probably lucky if i go to 3 of those

So only 4 are worth don't be fucking wasting your $$$

i think giraffage, san holo, and troyboi probably the most worth might be able to do more

i might be able to get tickets from my friend

eastghost is fucking dope San Holo played eastghost's remix of Light longer than he played his own version at Something Wicked

and every time i listen to Crawled Eagle i remember that Eprom is literally the Bass God
Anno
>>334567 it's obviously better. i'm sure san holo knows this too, he listens to music a lot too.
bangu
when singles get remix EPs like right after they come out, i usually get the idea that the artist was looking for someone to bounce a really good idea off of them in the first place Exile was actually a release on one of the bitbird mixtapes actually
>>>/watch?v=h1uL0pnjS0c here's a fat bitbird collab while i'm not super familiar with most of the artists involved, it's clear throughout the song that San Holo and Eastghost pretty much carry this entire track
bangu
I think it's because he doesn't have a lot of content out, and some of his content is pretty complex, but eastghost doesn't have a big enough following for his talent with help from bitbird and company, i'm hoping he can go big this year

maybe you need to calm the fuck down

My NEET sister plays BOTW while i'm at work and she got ahead of me in the game. god dammit.

Makes sense coming from the most hand holding game of 2017.

Samu 🍖 !KW2DbpWwls
botw? hand holding? it doesn't even have a formal tutorial
Anno
Handholding doesn't really seem the right term for it.
>>334580 Yeah I was going to say. Most of the game just kind of thrusts you upon stuff and says "have fun, figure this out", There isn't a particularly steep learning curvem -curve, but it doesn't tell you how to play.
Anno
I dunno, everything seemed to work as I expected when I first played it. I don't think you need a tutorial to play a zelda game.
Anno
Next you're gonna tell me bubsy takes skill
Anno
No I'm just going to say that on this point, you're full of shit.
Anno
Merked me 100%
Anno
bubsy 3D is a hard game. i couldn't beat it.
Anno
>>334582 Yeah, that's what I meant by it not having a steep learning curve. Everything is pretty intuitive -- aside from shield surfing -- but it doesn't really tell you how to do things.
Anno
bubsy 3d made me realise a game could be objectively bad
Anno
it's really amazing that a whole team of people worked on that shit together and tried to sell it how can you make a game that fucked up and not know it's shit
that is the oven temperature of cheese ontop of pizza straight from the oven also fuck ym, finger hursts

n korean soldier shot by n korea while defecting to the south
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
nothing new
Anno
i mean it's a DMZ so i think it kinda would be new maybe not? maybe they're shootin people up in a DMZ every day and this is just the one that caught the news
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
oh they shot him there
Anno
maybe. it's hard to tell if there are different stories overlapping or a broader story than what was initially told either way no point trying to get the deets right now someone else will flesh it out later
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
anyhow there are dozens of people dying of basic hunger or abuse there daily so it isn't really "news" though it indeed is a story
Anno
i think shooting a defector is a little bit more news yeah i'm sure it's common enough but it's something very deliberate
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
it happens quite oft in the chinese border, but yeah outright jumping the fence at the nk/sk border is rare especially in the dmz usually they boat out of there anyhow
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
or they don't get shot, but thrown abck into the country by chinese troops and then shot by the first nk soldat they meet
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
Must be weird thing to deport a nk defector in china or such it is literally a death sentence
Anno
defecting to china is probably different than defecting to south korea that's like moving out of your parent's home to go live with your older brother -- that's fine defecting to south korea is like moving out of your parent's home to go live with that colored fella down the street

Kirara 🦃
>>334733 It's not really embarrassing or anything!
>>334755 If I were a vengeful meanie I'd imply that you don't know this because you lack experience, but cup size doesn't have a lot to do with whether a bra is overly tight on the torso.

yeah i'm going to get shit hours but at least i'll only work 40 a week

>>334772 that's like 8 hours a day right? could be worse
Kirara 🦃
>>334770 Well, you just admitting your wrong isn't really motivating for me to go put on one of my girlfriend's bras.
ToN
I dont think I would put on a bra either
bangu
>>334770 my vehicle is fine i just am incapable of living as a functional adult the government has decided i do not deserve to take part in normal society
MariaKirara 🦃
It's not like I'm that opposed to the idea of putting on a bra. I've worn women's clothing before in public, so I'm kind of past that kind of thing. But it'd kinda be a bit of a pain to go put one on.
Maria
do flat chested girls bother with bras?
ToN
I'm pretty sure yes Support aside it also provides pritection
>>334774 >>334778 Yeah, but the point was the manipulate you into doing something mildly embarrassing without much effort on my part. If I put stakes up then that kind of defeats the purpose.
Maria
>>334781 >>334780 protection from what? If it's flat then isn't it functionally the same as a manchest
ToN
>>334783 from grinding against clothes and from being seen through them or noticed
Kirara 🦃
>>334782 Do you really think I'd get embarrassed just from wearing a bra?
>>334785 It's mildly embarrassing even if you don't see it that way.
>>334783 Even when flat, girl chests tend to be more sensitive. Even flat chests have nipples too, female nipples are more prone to perking up and sticking through clothes.
Kirara 🦃
>>334786 It's only embarrassing if I feel embarrassed. Just wearing a bra in front of my girlfriend wouldn't embarrass me.
bangu
yeah it's about the surcharges i was late on paying
>>334789 Can you renegotiate with the county by explaning your circumstances? This is meant for >>334788
>>334787 And the very mild level of embarrassing means it's not really worth it for me to go out of my way to get you to do it.

>>334792 my only course of option now is to see if a judge will grant me an occupational license otherwise i probably don't need to bother living anymore

Kirara 🦃
>>334792 I'm sure you could have come up with something better.
Yuu
>>334795 Yeah, do that. You're welcome for the advice.
I guess I can sort of give you a vague description of what happened so you know it's not embarrassing if you're really that interested in it, but it's really not very interesting.
>>334798 I'm sure it's at least a little interesting.
>>334799 You're welcome! You don't have to thank me so much.
bangu
there's a chance that because my license has been suspended before that i will not be able to apply for an occupational license for a year
Kirara 🦃
>>334800 I dunno. I don't think it's very interesting. I fell out of bed with something heavyish on me and now my back is really sore.
Yuu
>>334802 That sounds like a potentially interesting story depending on what the heavyish object was! Was ir around 100 pounds?
Kirara 🦃

i'll start making less money than my 18 year old brother now and i don't have my own transportation so i'll have to ask people for rides i can't go to the grocery store i can't even go to my own eye appointment tomorrow without my mom driving me i'm like a little kid
>>334806 Will you be able to get the catering gig back?
bangu
>>334807 if there's availability in a month or two when the process is over then maybe or there's the chance that i'm stuck this way for a year

>>334806 Hopefully the judge will be willing to work with you! Is it feasible to take a cab?
Kirara 🦃
>>334809 It feels like you're trying to make me say something so you can frame it somehow to make it look like I was doing something weird.
>>334808 That fucking sucks I hope you can get it in a month
bangu
>>334809 no not really even the cheapest ride-sharing option is still too expensive now that i'm making high-schooler part-time job money i'm literally thrown back to march 2015 i have all of the independence of a teenager

>>334810 It's just a simple yes or no question though.

even then it's just an occupational license even in the most perfect scenario it's still shitty i work harder than my peers, i try harder than my peers, i've struggled more than my peers why do they get to stay home and play video games all day while i get to contemplate if my life is even worth following through with
the other week i had this crazy thought that i might actually be father material i had no idea

at least if it was my fault i could hate myself for a good reason if the system wasn't so fucking retarded i could hate myself for something i can improve on instead i hate myself just for existing
Yuu
The system seems pretty bad there. I don't think they take your license for something like not paying, around here. How would people pay without a license, after all?
>>334819 It's not so simple! This is why I wasn't saying why my back hurt before! Because I knew you'd try to drag details out of me! But you got me feeling playful with the bra thing and I went against my best interest.

i can't even drink it over because i have to leave for work in 8 hours
bangu
>>334820 it doesn't matter nothing i feel will do anything anyways
ToNYuu
>>334820 So just go against your best interest a little more and tell me whether the object in question weighs around 100 pounds! What's the worst that can happen?
Kirara 🦃
>>334824 I think you already know the answer. You probably heard all about it already.
Yuu
>>334825 Nope, I haven't heard anything about it yet! I didn't ask. I have a pretty good idea what happened though.
Kirara 🦃

Well, I only think I know! Plus it would be fun to get you to spill the beans.
Kirara 🦃
Alright. The truth is that I fell off the bed with a nightstand on top of me.

Wow, your nightstand is pretty heavy. That's kind of an impressive accident too.

>>334832 I don't really know how you would even go about having such an impressive accident. I don't think I've ever been in danger of having a nightstand fall on me, and I'm pretty clumsy.
>>334840 Well, that's why I'm saying these things happen sometimes and not often.
Anyway, it really hurt and I thought I might have to go to the hospital for a little while, but it's not that bad now. I'm just kinda sore.
banguYuu
>>334841 I'm glad you feel better or at least didn't have to go to the hospital!
I guess it is something of an embarrassing circumstance, being so clumsy you have a nightstand fall on you. That's like being one of those people who die by pulling a vending machine over on themselves.
>>334873 I think it's perfectly natural to doubt a story like that, isn't it? If I told you that a night stand fell on me, your first response would be to ask how I managed that.
bangu
bye moe time to take more steps into the increasingly difficult future
Kirara 🦃
>>334874 My first response would be to ask you if you're okay, actually. I'd believe you if you said it wasn't your fault, too.
>>334877 Yeah, I totally would. I would be super concerned with your safety even if you said you were okay and I would believe you if you said it wasn't your fault because we're such good friends and our bond of trust is unbreakable.
Yuu
>>334878 Even if our bond is unbreakable, I wouldn't blame you for wondering how I managed to have a nightstand fall on me.

They grow to the size of dogs. They climb trees, and tear through solid matter with claws nearly as strong as a lion's jaws. >
And now, finally, we have video evidence that the crabs — thousands strong on one island — can scale trees and hunt full-grown birds in their nests.
i fucking hate when websites have this stupid formatting that does this shit
Yuu
Being eaten by crabs may explain why she crashed her plane. It's probably hard to fly with crabs trying to eat you.
Kirara 🦃
this video of this crab killing a bird is like holy shit
Kirara 🦃
>An adult red-footed booby had landed near the entrance to a coconut crab's burrow," Laidre recounted. "As the bird stood there, the crab slowly emerged from its underground lair, approaching the bird from behind. The crab then grabbed the bird by one leg and dragged it, struggling, back into its burrow." >I counted over 1,000 coconut crabs in single (9-mile) transects but did not observe even one ground-nesting bird," Laidre wrote. All the nests were high up in the trees, and cracked coconuts littered the ground. >The booby had been sleeping on a low-lying branch, less than a meter up the tree," he wrote. "The crab slowly climbed up." >He watched the crab take the bird's wing in its great claws. He watched it break the bones beneath the feathers. >Five more coconut crabs came to the site within 20 minutes, likely cueing in on the blood," Laidre wrote. They tore it to pieces and took it away, and now yet one more thing is known about the giant coconut crabs of the Indian and Pacific oceans.
I thought her plane was just lost? Did she land on an island or something?
Kirara 🦃
it is widely believed that she wound up on an island and died
Yuu
Crabs are pretty dangerous. Have they overwhelmed the ecosystem there or something?
Kirara 🦃
According to that article, there aren't any animals that live on the ground because the crabs kill and eat everything, and the only birds are in the trees but sometimes the crabs kill them, too.
Can you imagine surviving a plane crash and then when you get on land, thousands of crabs just pile onto you and slowly dismember you?
Anno
I remember a theory that her plane may have crashed on an island in imperial Japan territory of the time period around WWII. And she was captured and eventually killed on account of that. Which is probably also a pretty miserable way to die. The Japanese during WWII weren't particularly known for being humanitarian.
Yuu
>>334901 Well, I would defeat the crabs and eat lots and lots of tasty crab. But I can see where that would be a problem for normal people.
>>334911 I tabbed back in to see what people were saying to me, and then no one was saying anything to me!
>>334910 I'm not sure who it is but I really like the track. I recently discovered this type of music. Whatever it is called. Music is so diverse nowadays there's almost no point in labels.
Anno
>>334913 jan made me listen to artzi music playlists for like 18 hours one day

Well, Jan has good taste in music if he likes this kind of thing!

I'm also often told that I'm a frustrating person. We should all frustrate people together.

>>334921 I guess that's why people throw nightstands at you.
Kirara 🦃

>>334922 That's probably a quick way to get us both killed.
FormerRei@mobile
I haven't had an actual night in like a decade. But basically any flat surface within arms reach of my bed (or where I sleep) becomes a night stand. In that it becomes covered with books and other crap.
Yuu
>>334924 You'd probably have real problems if it was more than one nightstand.
Kirara 🦃
>>334926 I've never had one night stand. I think I've always had two. So you never know!
Kirara 🦃
I have a nightstand on both sides of my bed. There's not really a lot on them, though. Drink coasters, books, sometimes a bra or something. A flashlight. A knife.
Anno
My nightstand is home to a lot of books and game cases. And a few electronic devices. The drawers are stuffed with stuff I don't even know what. I have a tendency to be a little packratty.
>>334929 Oh yeah, I have game cases for my 3DS games in my nightstand. Now that I think about it, I'm not exactly sure what Fish has in the nightstand on her side other than these adhesive bra things.
Yuu
>>334927 >>334928 Wow, you have two nightstands? Be careful, if the one on your side finds out you have another one you might get murdered.
Kirara 🦃
>>334932 Well, one of them is technically Fish's. I mean, it's my furniture, but it's on her side and it's full of her stuff, so I guess we both have one night stand.
Yuu
Well, that's good. The ngihtstand that crushed you a bit may get upset if it finds out you have another nightstand on the side.
Kirara 🦃
>>334934 Those nightstands can be pretty dangerous.
Yuu
Yeah, you might get stabbed.
Kirara 🦃
Well, I'm the kinda guy that's faithful, so I don't think I'll have to worry about that.
Anno
The dumbass dog we've been looking after for my sister has some kind of issue with either my glasses, my usual hoodie, or my bag. Whenever I'm dressed up to go out wearing those he goes off on me like nothing else. Sometimes he's even near where my shoes are and makes it impossible to actually leave the fucking house. And he'll go off on me in the same way when I get home at night.
Yuu
Yeah, you should only horse around with one nightstand.
Kirara 🦃
It kind of feels like you're using nightstand as a metaphor for a person.
>>334938 Actually now that you mention that my mom's dog doesn't like me when I'm dressed up. Whenever I drop by and I'm wearing nice clothes, he barks at me! But when I show up wearing slobby clothes he's cool with me. Maybe it's the shoes.
Maria
>>334938 The dog just loves you and doesn't want you to leave
Kirara 🦃
>>334941 Yeah. It's kinda suspicious. It feels like you're trying to imply something.
Anno
You two kind of have the most insipid and obvious dialogue when doing stuff like this, so yeah. It's about as subtle and cliched as a pile of bricks to the face.
I don't really know why, but today really tuckered me out. I'm feeling awfully tired despite not being too active today.
Though in a bit of a flip, I'm more or less fine with it. I've been on a really bad bit of a loss of self-control spiral these past few weeks and being able to go to sleep at a decent time might be a sign that I'm getting back in control.
Yuu
>>334946 You started it! You should have just admitted that the object that fell on you was around 100 pounds!
>>334947 I'm tired ubt I was very active today. I will be active tomorrow too!
Kirara 🦃
>>334948 You would have tried to frame it as something other than what it really was if I said yes.
>>334947 I'm really tired today, too, despite not doing too much. I didn't even run today.
Yuu
>>334949 Maybe I would have! I know what it was though. Your mistake was denying that my hunch was accurate!
Kirara 🦃
>>334950 My nightstand isn't around 100 pounds anyway.
>>334951 But my question was if it was an object around 100 pounds!
Anno
On the other hand though, getting into a better sleeping schedule can only happen if my job keeps not calling me into work. It's been almost two weeks since the last time they brought me in. I'm not desperate for money so it's fortunately not a big deal, but on the other hand, it's a little ridiculous from a general perspective I figure.
>>334956 Why do you have to keep pushing for information about it?
Anno
>>334955 They gave me a sort-of reasonable explanation for the first week but told me they'd keep me up to date by last Friday. Maybe I should have called to verify but that's a bit more enthusiasm for the job than I particularly cared to put in. And still kind of feel the same right now.
Yuu
>>334957 It's not about pushing for information. It's about validating that my hunch was correct! I have a lot of confidence in my intuition.
FormerRei@mobile
>>334959 It's already been verified that it was incorrect.
Kirara 🦃
>>334959 Well, the object wasn't around 100 pounds, so your hunch was wrong.
Yuu
>>334960 Maybe I'm so confident because I've already verified that it's correct!
>>334961 Well probably a bit more but that's not a topic we should touch!
FormerRei@mobile
>>334962 Night stands don't weigh over 100 pounds.
>>334988 Harassing everyone is a big part of what I do.
>>334989 Maybe I'll relent if you compliment my intuition.
Kirara 🦃
>>334991 Wow. Good job. Your intuition is so good. 8888888.
Anno
>>334991 If you keep up that mindset you're just going to chase people away. And then you're going to be asking why /moe/ is so dead at <insert time period of the day here> again and be baffled when people try to tell you it's because you chased them away.
Yes you do. When people tell you that you are creating a situation which does that, and then you overtly refuse to cease doing so, you are perpetuating that situation. Don't give me that sort of trite, false, "I'm too naive to see the full picture here" excuse. I know you're not that stupid.
>>334996 No one was around and we were just fooling around. but fine, I get it.
FormerRei@mobile
>>334999 >no one was around Why do you think that is?
Yuu
I've been like this for a number of years and people still visit so forgive me for having a little bit of confidence and not thinking that I'm responsible for it every time there are only a few people posting. but I don't really want to argue about this and I'm clearly annoying you guys, so I'm just going to go over to the other tab and concentrate on my work until anime time.
Kirara 🦃Yuu
>>335002 And don't you feel bad that I got fussed at. It just happens from time to time!
Anno
>>335001 Why do you have to vilify yourself whenever this situation comes up. Do you really think it's not ridiculous to circle around the same prospect for three and a half hours straight.
FormerRei@mobile
>>335001 If you don't respect our requests to "not argue about it" whatever "it" may be, do you really expect us to respect yours?
Yuu
>>335004 I just don't know what to do in these situations. I don't know how to be anyone other than me.
Anno
Experiment! Try different things! Don't stubbornly just bang your head against the wall in the same fashion time after time again.
Anno
And sorry Kirara, I know this sort of thing is a little fun for you too. But I feel like /moe/ is subject to two to three hours of this at least five times a week. And I don't know about everyone but I feel there's at least a few people that have gotten weary of it's consistent appearance.
FormerRei@mobile
If you absolutely have to do it Please make another thread Or just use an old one or something
Yuu
>>335008 >>335007 I am just a hollow existence. I can only react to stuff so this is what happens when there are limited things to react to.
FormerRei@mobile
>>335010 I think this is something we can work on. But not right now cause I'm too damn tired.
Yuu
There's nothing that can be done about fixing my personality. The only way to fix it is for people to post lots of interesting things so I have lots to react to.
Anno
i had to give a teleconference presentation to company directors today there were 12 people on the line
FormerRei@mobile
>>335012 >There's nothing that can be done about fixing my personality. We aren't "fixing" "your personality", we're asking you to be open towards changing some of your behaviors.
Anno
>>335012 There's plenty that could be done. You just don't want to.
>>335013 Do you think you did an all right job with it?
Yuu
>>335013 Is that thing you were working on moving forward?
>>335015 I don't really think so. I'm uninteresting so banter is most of what I do. I've always spent most of my time just bantering with various moes.
Anno
probably im working on a lot of things some of them are moving forward too fast for comfort
Anno
>>335016 I don't believe that directly excuses the other. I'm hardly an interesting person -- I make constant jokes about that after all -- but I rarely get into repeating arguments with people for three hours.
Yuu
>>335014 I pretty much do what I want when I want to exclusively, so changing my behavior is out of the question.
Which is why it's not "nothing that can be done" and more "I don't want to change". Just be honest about it.
FormerRei@mobile
Going to bed Yasumi
Yuu
>>335020 I don't really even know what the first step would be for changing like that. I've never done it or tried it.
Anno
i dont have much interesting to say unless people really want to hear about business compliance and protocol for avoiding bad data in market research i usually say it anyway and if there's no pings from the external world i figure there's nothing to probe
Anno
What even counts as bad data in that situation? Stuff that doesn't seem accurate or potentially skewed by bias or something?
Yuu
>>335023 Most of what you say is pretty interesting. I always read it pretty closely even when I don't reply. You always have some kind of interesting project going on.
Anno
Yeah I tend to read all of it, even if I can't properly internalize the concepts you're talking about.
Anno
>>335024 bad data through any of the analytics process, which can be pretty broad in the data collection, data parsing, preservation through marketing messaging and communications, analytics interpretations the most common thing really is poor collecting procedures, such as poor paper logging for where the data came from with aggregate information while showing that someone was properly incentivized but not overly incentivized for their contribution there's bias in every part, not just the collector's. if a person has motivation to want to be done with an annoying survey they dont want to do, the extremity exclusion range is gonna be a lot larger if people are overly incentivized then you get useless data a lot of times too
in this case though the line was really drawn on the legal battlefield because the market researchers and the directors at this company had a prepared list for a case study in a B2B relationship and the probe list they had verified contained questions probing into company proprietary processes, which are not accessible for case studies -- or not encouraged it'd totally be fine to ask in a learnings session, which a market research company would be familiar with, but for them to probe that as a case study was something that would have caused them a good deal of professional embarrassment so i gave them a short coaching on some of the things they should avoid
it's bad data because, even if they got it, it wouldnt be usable for their case study.
Kirara 🦃Yuu
I'm thinking of stepping down to secondary status in kancolle. I may do this last event and then retire.
Anno
Poor Tony will be all alone.
Yuu
He's already a secondary. I don't think he's done the last few events.
Anno
A few Nipponese people I follow and some of my mobage-obsessed friends have been getting into-yeah. Azur Lane. I still don't really want to get into a mobage though but the art is pretty good in it.
Kirara 🦃
Azur Lane is the big thing now.
Kancolle is dying anyway. It's not even the most populous thing at C93. Type/Moon has become the most popular thing now.
Yuu
I heard it was close or more popular than Kancolle. Not too surprising since it has actual gameplay. But it is chinese and the girls aren't as cute.
Unfortunately kancolle was unable to step it up in the gameplay department.
I'd consider going to Azur Lane if it had an English UI but I don't feel like learning another UI.
Kirara 🦃
It has a lot of pretty cute girls, but most of them are like, really lewd I guess,. So that is a big bonus to its popularity.
And I think it's got a Japanese version? People were talking about how one of the Chinese boats accidentally bugged and had Chinese voice acting, and the players liked it, so the devs agreed to keep it Chinese or someething.
Anno
Yeah, the art is pretty lewd compared even to some risque mobage.
>>335035 Yeah it's got a Japanese version. I've seen shots of it.
Anno
>>335027 Oh yeah, I think I was trying to define poor collecting procedures but my brain wasn't cooperating. That makes sense
Yuu
Azur Lane looks a bit easy and forgiving, but fun and easy is better than hard and boring.
I won't play till it gets english though. Once I become a kancolle secondary I'll probably just do fire emblem and that's it.
Anno
>>335037 there's bad data like bad apples, where it's just spoiled and unusable data dn then there's "bad data", which is like fake news in that it is a report built off unquoted bad data
Anno
A bunch of my mobage friends are really, really into Fate/GO too. They're all artists too so I think they're trying to get a fanbook into a future Comiket. At least one and maybe two of them have actually gotten in before so it's not impossible either.
>>335043 Yeah. Getting to go to the actual event was a real blast, but actually being able to participate would be the ultimate experience. Plus being a vendor gets you in before all the crowds and you can snap up all the stuff you want before the people flood in. 'Cept maybe the corporate vendors they might only run during actual hours.
>>335046 Uh, I can't say I saw much in the way of food, unless you actually mean the people that set up food trucks in the parking lot. And I don't think they're Comiket participants, just people looking to sell food where people want it. As for crafts booths, they were pretty few and far between, but I think I saw them. Stuff like small handmade trinkets, keychains and whatsnot, right?
Anno
there is other stuff besides digital media right? like craft vendors and food vendors and all that?
ToN
Bep is still the best thank you for seasonal bep
Anno
>>335045 most venues sell those food vendor slots to food trucks yeah at least here. i dunno about japan but i'd imagine so i'm sure all the girls who go their with their nerdy boyfriends will want to go shop crafts and fun stuff i bet cosplay booths at least have a presence
Anno
>>335045 yeah, like making little keychains or backpack straps or themed crafts >>335051 believe me i know
Anno
hi
Anno
Girls can be pretty passionate about doujinshi too. There's whole aisles dedicated to series that produce a good 95% yaoi. Kekkai Sensen has a ridiculous fujoshi following over in Japan and most of the content made for it is pretty fucking gay. Tiger & Bunny is still going super strong with the fujoshi crowd too.
>>335049 I only spent a bit of time in the non-super-anime part of Comiket. Even outside of the anime/game halls the products are still mostly anime-styled. But they've got a couple halls dedicated to otaku interests that aren't anime/manga/game-related. I came across a table selling a book dedicated to owls. Like it had a bunch of cute girls drawn with owls. And then you get deeper into the book and all of a sudden there's birdspotting owl photography in it. I bought the book for the cute owl drawings and got some owl photos and probably owl trivia in Japanese too.
Anno
tfw you have one and a half beers and feel the fatigue headache already man ive become a wimp this past month
ToN
>>335038 clearly rika this is your chance to become a granblue autist
Anno
>>335048 There aren't really a lot of cosplay booths. And the ones that are there mostly are just selling anthology volumes of their photoshoots. They do cordon off a massive part of the outdoor area for people to show off their outfits though; I'm sure you've seen the photos of cute girls walled inside a mass of photographers. You do get a handful of cosplayers walking about the halls though. Apparently one of my friends is a huge fan of one of them and got really excited when he bumped into her in the halls.
What's a little weird for me is that the meme has existed for a good long while now. And then all of a sudden it's become relevant and in the public sphere again.
Kirara 🦃
Yeah, I remember seeing it so long ago and it was just kind of vaguely around but now it's so big.
Yuu
A meme gets a big boost when I notice it.
Anno
Actually I'm pretty sure it got an attention bump before you started using it.
I knew if I left that part out you'd act like it was all to your credit.
Kirara 🦃
It's probably because the anti-furry stigma has lessened on a lot of the Internet and so their memes have started to spread more freely.
Yuu
Yeah, it's important to always be on guard against furries.
Kirara 🦃
No, I'm saying that people are lowering their guard around furries. Furries are becoming more acceptable in a lot of places, so their memes are capable of spreading to non-furries now.
>>335135 that sounds really nice actually I wanna try Chinese ice cream again
Kirara 🦃
It's really nice. Green tea ice cream is really comfy, but I can't sit down and eat an entire thing of it like I can with vanilla.
>>335139 Last time we were in Philly, Blue, Tilde, Notso, and I had chinese rolled up ice cream. It was really good.
Anno
Yeah that ice cream was pretty high-quality. They did all the prepwork for it after we ordered it too. I hope we can find time to go again.
Anno
Paid the cost to be the boss. Paid the cost to be the boss.
Look at me. You know what you see? Ya see a bad 'mutha.
Kirara 🦃
>>335145 Jan didn't get to experience it, so we'll definitely have to go back. Hopefully Rook can experience it too, so we can all fulfill our promise to have an ice cream deito in Chinatown!
The Moose Tracks ice cream I had has these mini chocolate peanut butter cups and fudge whirls in it. I always like to save a bit of the cups and fudge for the last spoonfuls.
dis nigga never had moose tracks lol and you say your from canadia
Anno
>>335156 Wow chill man Moose Tracks is one of my favourite ice cream types. I get it super regularly. But I don't know how common place it is outside of Canadia.
>when a large portion of your granblue crew is awake at 3 or 4 in the morning so they can bet on guild wars in yime for yakuza betting to get super big crystals and yet you sleep like a human
Yuu
moost tracks sounds pretty candian, yeah.
Kirara 🦃
moist tracks
Anno
moist racks
Kirara 🦃
the other day someone on twitter told me that i made them moist
It'd be more comfortable if it'd been you saying it!
She also messaged me and said she thought I was cute and asked if I wanted to flirt.
Anno
How does she even know you're cute. Haven't you deleted all the personal photos you've put up on it. At least the one that outright show your features.
Kirara 🦃
Yeah. The antifa joke costume with my face covered and the skirt is the thing she said made her moist.
So she's probably really dangerous.
Anno
How exciting.
Maria
she's an fbi catfish trying to get you for fighting the state
ToN
>>335178 Imm glad you took it that way but I actually was apologizing that you had that happen to you
Yuu
You're wore an antifa skirt and posted it on twitter?
Kirara 🦃
>>335185 I put on a mask and a bunch of black clothes and took some really stupid, incredibly dorky parody photos of me holding a knife and a wooden sword and posted in on Twitter when the right thought that antifa was going to stage a violent revolution on the November 4th as a joke, and a bunch of right wingers threatened me like I expected, but then this one lady said it made her moist.
Yuu
Well I guess that's pretty weird!
ToN
Kirara you have to stop seducing people. You're committed!
Kirara 🦃
>>335192 That's how I know she must be dangerous. She saw a picture of me wearing all black with a mask, holding a weapon in a ridiculous pose, wearing a skirt, and she thought, "yes, this is what i consider attractive"
>>335194 I never imagined that anyone would be seduced by something so ridiculous and unattractive.
Anno
There are all sorts of people in this wide world.
Kirara 🦃
could this possibly look any stupider? this is like something a 10 year old would think is cool it's so stupid and ridiculous looking
And everyone was OUTRAGED. That was a good response from the crowd.
Kirara 🦃
yeah haha they're all like YO WTF
Kirara 🦃
I hope Dwayne the Rock Johnson voices detective Pikachu
Anno
I remember there was a bit of public outcry for some guy who's famous for voicing detectives or playing detectives to voice him. An actor with one of those gravelly voices of a detective out of a noir film or something.
Kirara 🦃
i got in trouble for not telling fish that someone on twitter hit on me
Yuu
You need to be careful!
Kirara 🦃
she gets mad if i tell her someone flirted with me and she gets mad if i don't tell her
Yuu
Well just stop getting hit on!
Kirara 🦃
I don't want to be flirted with or hit on. If I could stop, I would.
Anno
Damned if you do, damned it -if you don't
Somehow I hit a key macro and zoomed my browser window out. I didn't even know there was one for that.
>>335264 Here we remember Bang He was a good friend and a great poster I still remember his last words so clearly "I was just one day away from retirement " Never forget
Also it's way too warm for the coat I grabbed. Thanks Trump
Kirara 🦃
Malthus is a deadass dumb motherfucker that got proven wrong more than 100 years ago but people still worship unknowingly
FormerRei@mobile
>>335290 So is he "the other Karl Marx" a la "pork, the other white meat"
Kirara 🦃
what
FormerRei@mobile
Pork is the other white meat The main white meat being chicken Is Anyways it was a dumb joke
Kirara 🦃
but what does marx have to do with anything
FormerRei@mobile
>>335294 A lot of people would describe him as "a dead dumbass motherfucker that got proven wrong a hundred years ago that people still worship unknowingly"
Kirara 🦃
marx was proven right 100 years ago though almost exactly 100 years ago actually
Kirara 🦃
at the very least, you can debate whether or not marx was right
malthus on the other hand was completely wrong about the core of his entire theory
sk
>>335287 Yeah, let's limit population growth that's freedom baby
Well "right" Cause the Soviet Union was so great for everyone involved
Kirara 🦃
well, it was decent under lenin it got fucked up later when it stopped moving towards communism ussr was never actually communism, though
there is an example of the /// a successful communist state, or at least, quite a few of them throughout history most of human society throughout history has been some degree of communism
FormerRei@mobile
Anyways, whether or not you agree with every thing Malthus said. Population growth is going to be a problem.
sk
Saying Marx was wrong because the USSR blew donkey dick is like saying Einstein was wrong because he fucked up a recipe one time
Kirara 🦃
>>335302 maybe in 500 years malthus said that we couldn't sustain population growth because production lags behind population growth but this is one of the least correct things you could possibly say we can easily produce more than enough to sustain the entire world population and will for a long time because our production capability only continues to increase
malthus was wrong at his very core and is now someone that's just used as an excuse to kill poor people
FormerRei@mobile
>>335303 Not really It's more like saying "Einstein was wrong because the first experiment to test general relativity did not " *support it Incidentally the first experiment to test general relativity supported it Einstein 1 Marx 0
sk
Well black holes exist so I mean Einstein was wrong, actually
The point is that one mistake doesn't discredit all the work you've ever done
Kirara 🦃
communism existed long before marx wrote about it and it worked it failed because it wasn't understood and the dangers of other systems weren't known the chief value of marx is that his theory can be used to make it stop failing
FormerRei@mobile
>>335314 That is fair But if that one mistake was really really bad, its not unfair to at least question it
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
>communism has never been tried for real
Kirara 🦃
it hasn't in the modern era at least back in medieval times, it was everywhere and most of human society throughout our long history has been communist to a general degree
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
I wouldn't count communities per se communism if you argue that even the earliest humans like hunter gatherers were communists
sk
>>335316 questioning is good If you're just talking about the whole "let's take over the state and gradually hope it gives up its power" shtick, then I'd agree he was pretty off
Kirara 🦃
they're anarcho-communist communities basically
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
no they are people who didn't know better and had just small things to tackle once you had more than 100 people in one place, they started to hierarchise immediately
Kirara 🦃
wrong. hard wrong.
FormerRei@mobile
Wait I figured it out It makes perfect sense
Marx ruined communism because no one did it right after his work
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
>>335323 so village elders making village decisions is communism and anarchy?
Kirara 🦃
>>335325 i don't recall saying anything about village elders??
>>335326 then medieval time peasants et al weren't commies
Kirara 🦃
>>335328 oh come on don't be ridiculous there were plenty of towns and communities that were just people living together with nobody making decisions other than people making choices together
>>335330 noooooo i'm obviously talking about before that
They actually are a monarchy since there is a king though he is quite hands off since moominvalley was first settled by the moomin family but technically, they are part of a monarchy

i've got a good product idea i dunno why nobody has made it yet get this a laptop that's comfortable to use
