I miss the infernal robin map though. I had fun beating that.

Voting gauntlet is fun when characters I care about are in it. In ones like this one, I rarely participate much.
Yuu
I like Lucina so I sided with her. Who did you side with?
Kirara 🚗
Camilla is the only one I have, so Camilla.
Yuu
Camilla is going to be the strongest this time. She already has a ton more flags down in her matchup.
Kirara 🚗
Idk. She was losing every time I checked this morning.
skYuu
>>458809 Whoever is against her is probably getting huge modifiers. I checked the various matchups and hers is the one with by far the most flags in it.
Kirara 🚗

ToN
what, you arent team catria? get woth the times
or you could be le ebin ninjabbititties
Yuu
>>458812 I looked at the numbers but the opponent didn't catch my eye. oh am I losing connection
Kirara 🚗
Well, Camilla was losing most of the day. She's been ahead for the last few hours, but she spent several hours far enough behind to have a multiplier, too.
>>458817 Yes, i was guided around by a very nice mexico lady It is strange how friendly people are
Anno
Easter candy was 75% off at the bulk store. I got an obscene amount of chocolate Smarties for a reaaaally good price.
Kirara 🚗
>>458818 Everyone in the South is friendly, and everyone in the West is friendly. People in the North like to mind their own business and be left alone. People in the South are less friendly to black people sometimes, though.

I wanna get food but there doesnt look there any nice sandwich shops
Kirara 🚗
Where are you in the airport? Want me to look up a map and see if there's anything good?
Kannagiphone
T concorde
Kirara 🚗
There's a sandwich shop near gate T3 Corner Bakery Cafe, there's also a TGI Fridays across from gate T4, they usually have pretty good hamburgers but they're probably really expensive at an airport
Anno
Man this windstorm is cold as all hell. Standing temperature isn't even that bad, but the wind is biting cold and blows hard.
Kannagiphone
>>458830 TGI is really busy . I might go to subway
Anno
>>458830 Yeah, I recommend avoiding any "sit-down" places like these at an airport. Everything is expensive, but places like those take the fucking cake
Stick to cafe-style places if you can, they generally have the most control over how small a thing you can buy. Only real way to save money.
Kannagiphone
Oh fuck subway is superbusy too dammit
Kirara 🚗
>>458832 i don't see a subway on the map i wonder if the map is old

Anno
That might be a bit of a culture shock for her, hoh hoh hoh.
Kirara 🚗
Oh, D has a Quiznos Subs, too. There's a place called Charley's Grilled Subs in C.
i worry it might be too greasy for her, honestly it'd probably be best to hold off on greasy fast food until she's in new mexico wouldn't want a bad stomach ache on the plane
Anno
Though considering how they overload you on fries at Five Guys, it might be the best bang for your buck in the airport. I would still not recommend it to someone unaccustomed to American fast food though.
Kirara 🚗
D has a "Das Waffle Haus & Pub"

So many sweets and no BLTs I got a club panini from bakery place
Kirara 🚗
naisu How long is your flight to New Mexico now? You have like 3 hours in Atlanta, right?
Yeah, the sun sets much earlier down south. That might be a little hard to adjust to as someone from the UK. I know it was weird for me when I flew down to Florida.

I'm hungry.

Why the fuck aren't you eating or drinking?
Arisu
kirara do you have food? i thought you earn enough for that stuff. every time I heard about food I think that maybe food in america might be really expensive. >>458868 that's too nice. Saku was great. I don't have many memories but they were nice ones.
Kirara 🚗
I'm fasting for Saku's yahrzeit. I can afford food! If I couldn't, my girlfriend is rich.
FormerRei@mobile
>>458868 Wow You actually do that? I can't think of anyone I know off the top of my head that does that aside from you.
Kirara 🚗
I only fast for Saku's. I light candles for the others, but Saku's is the only one I fast for. For a lot of reasons.

Arisu
no he is from family i guess he also doesnt talk about that much..
FormerRei@mobile
Also Kirara I just checked You aren't supposed to fast on this yahrzeit because it takes place during passover.
>>458886 yeah but i'm too dehydrated to properly eat unless i get some water in me
Anno
>>458888 What are you going to eat when you're done drinking?
Kirara 🚗
i'm not 100% sure yet i was supposed to go to the store today but i've felt too crappy all day usually we'd just have pancakes or something but i can't eat pancakes right now i might make fish some pancakes and then eat some cheeze with matzo

Well, in general, its mot healthy to fast. *not
Kirara 🚗
proper fasting for short periods of time does have health benefits if done properly albeit dry fasting is not going to be healthy for you so don't do what i do unless you have a good reason
FormerRei@mobile
Yeah, but in general, do you think people are going to do it properly?

People don't do these things at all. unless you mean me. Which I was trying to imply that if i wanted to, i'd do it properly.

lavasioth is harder for me than any elder dragon it's so weird

lavasioth is difficult without a fire element to soften his lava armor

tempered lavasioth has a tendency to OHKO with his charged up lava ball too the only monsters that can still OHKO me are him and tempered djoe

It was so good. The guy who directed it. Rian Johnson, got greenlit by Disney to do an original trilogy of movies in the Star Wars universe because of it. I'm excited to see what that'll end up being.

Huh 2001: A Space Odyssey turns fifty in about a week.

>>459074 maybe it's like flight or fight effect. you're so tired the body reduces the dopamine or whatever hormone cuauses sleep. >>459076 yes, it's been a thing on twitter at least. honestly, i can't remember a kubrick movie i saw, and that's sad af.
FormerRei@mobile
You should go see it, i bet a theater near you will have it for its 50th anniversary.
Did i tell people here i travelled to another city to watch heavens feel? well that. i would enjoy watching 2001 and also the others (is clk. orange kubrick as well, i think it is..)
FormerRei@mobile

>>459108 No matter what arcs they adapt that won't have a direct impact on the ED man. The hell you on about.
sk
They didn't remove every scene with Climb, so they should remove nothing
Arisu
>>459110 it's hard to remove EVERY scene with climb
Anno
>>459110 Climb was fun man. He also was rarely the focus, and even when he was it was usually in a frame of reference with the princess.
Arisu
like, there was basically 2 important scenes with him, and he's usually giving more characterization to other people by being a bland piece of shit.
sk
Also they didn't even have the scene with Momon wearing a human face and talking to people What a ripoff
I'm still satisfied with the season though
Anno
Eh who cares. Him either being a skelelich or a Black Knight is pretty funny. If he can give himself an illusion of being human that's just boring.
Arisu
Not many people liked the lizard arc i say it's ok >>459115 he showed face to some shitty guild on season 1 right? also the best unmasking was when he fought clem
Anno
Lizard arc was neat in terms of cultural introspection and showing just what Nazarick feels like to be up against on a serious level.

Arisu
>>459149 no i mean i posted the link somewhere some guy was trying to write "realistic women" but the girl just described herself and then went over details about how hot she was i think that's an incredibly sexist way to see girls and that's why guys can only write grisl as they see them: as sluts.
FormerRei@mobile
Okay But slurs actually exist >>459150 >guys can only write girls as sluts Wow It's like you don't read or something Don't fucking talk shit about half or so of authors ever if you don't want to seem generally ignorant

Honestly glad the penguin didn't get more screentime than he did

FormerRei@mobile
>>459157 If you read more you would understand why I said that. I take literature very seriously.
Arisu
but at least you have to admit that LN authors dont have the best writting skills. at least
im not trying to ruin literature or anything i agree i am - okay i'll just shut up im tired
>>459160 Writing skills are something I treasure, but they're also only one factor of several in making an interesting story. Some LN authors have some amazing world building and conceptual ideas. And it's actually a real shame that its made derivative and droll by lousy writing and trite industry tropes.
nevertheless i enjoyed overlord and i would assume the author wasn't just trying to write albedo as a flat character. apparently she is more delevoped in the novels.
Maria
>>459170 you bet he wasn't writing her as a flat character bowchickawowwow wink win
I read through all the scanlated chapters of that manga by the author of Bonnouji about not-Magic the Gathering. It's a pretty good read, and it kind of makes me want to get into a card game like that. Real life Magic's probably out of the question though.

Yeah, I can get that. It's been a fair while since I've done any kind of skating too. Though in my case it's more a lot of ice skating. I'm sure I could get the knack of it fast again though.

i'm kinda sad that in 10 minutes i managed to ruin an entire few months and spend thousands of dollars i mean it's not like the money is instantly gone but i wish the time was i'm going to miss so many shows over this
but it's okay i have someone who's being really supportive and sweet and i'll have help getting through these next few months even if the injury is a lot worse than my last one, i'll have a lot more help this time

Yeah it's pretty ridiculous how frail parts of the human body can be. One dumb decision can put you out of commission for way longer than it takes to make the decision.
Maybe we should all become invincible robot bodies.

that sucks, i'm sorry to hear that
yeah and it's not like any protective gear in the world would have helped me here sometimes it's like that
Anno
I'd rather unironically die than ironically die I figure. But uncouth jokes aside that's pretty miserable. There's a lots of fun activities that are really fun to participate in, oh that's redundant, but are also really dangerous to do. Sucks that you have to always take at least a small gamble with your life to have fun with them.
Anno
Hey Bang. Sucks about the ankle but congratulations on finding love. Hope it works out well for you. You deserve it.
What's kind of funny is that I wanted to get into roller skating because she's super good at it but then i found out pretty quickly that i'm not It's okay, i'll try again when my ankle is better I've heard it's actually safer to learn how skates work on ice and then transition to wheels
Anno
Having done both of them, even though it's been ages, I can definitely vouch for that. Ice skates are relatively straightforward as long as you can balance.

I've also heard roller blades are way easier than roller skates but idk Also, thanks, I appreciate it
I actually learned roller skating first. Haven't done it in years though.

I've never broken a bone. Except maybe one of those little bones in the face that never heals properly that often breaks when you get punched in the face. Its like between the cheekbone and eye sicket or something.
FormerRei@mobile
*socket I tend to be sort of hyoer vigilant about my surroundings and measure risk of physical injury pretty well so I've never gotten any severe injuries. Excluding a few from when I was really young and then the dislocation, but that was caused by a seizure.
I also did sports and martial arts so I have good balance and don't trip or slip easily. Basically I just worry about getting injuries and try to be very careful.
I really need to get back in shape though. The degree at which I'm out of shape definitely makes me more susceptible to injury in addition to just being unhealthy.

FormerRei@mobile
Although we're fine on gun murder per capita, we aren't number one. I think we're just number one or so in total number.
FormerRei@mobile
But I don't live on the south side so its not really an issue for me.
Anno
I'm trying to remember the state where they supposedly have the strictest laws, but you can just go out of state to a gun show and get a gun easy.
FormerRei@mobile
>>459478 It does violate the law in some states to bring it back and not register it. But ggun shows are a problem. Also semiautomatic rifles really aren't the gun violence problem The vast majority of gun rrelated deaths are from pistols.
Anno
Fair enough.
FormerRei@mobile
Oh yeah The biggest coal exporting pirt in the world is in hunter isnt it? *port
FormerRei@mobile
Coal is bad Mm'kay
Anno
Try telling that to the companies.
FormerRei@mobile
Fun fact Fossil fuel companies were amongst the first people to predict CO2 emissions from fossil fuels wouod lead to climate change They know its bad But it makes them money
Anno
That's not a fun fact at all.
FormerRei@mobile
Well There's certain legal stuff that will make it easier to fine/prosecute certain companies and individuals as a result of that
Anno
Man, I wish bps would do something with 4-ch.
FormerRei@mobile
What is likely to happen in the us with the fossil fuel companies is something like what happened with the tobacco industry They'll be taken to court under the RICO act
Anno
>>459486 Is this after the islands disappear and whatnot?
I guess we'll have to see when the rising sea-levels become a "real problem".
FormerRei@mobile
I think tokalu or whatever will go under soon
FormerRei@mobile
Anyways we really need something like the tobacco master settlement and rico prosecution for exxon, bp etcetera
FormerRei@mobile
Because it includes penalties for disinformation campaigns and all their bogus "science" they use to "refute" CO2 emission induced climate change But we really won't be able to do anything like that until Trump is out.
>>459523 Probably Fuck that guy for bitching about people wanting to play older versions of games though. Sometimes people just want to play something again. If enough people wanted it there's obviously a market for it, who is he to be so dismissive.
FormerRei@mobile
Honestly I dont actually care that much but he seems butthurt for some reason.
Kirara 🚗
it's kind of a dumb thing to complain about, yeah
Kirara 🚗
in other weird news, there is a legion of TERFs on twitter claiming and passionately arguing that the YouTube hq shooter is not a woman, she is a trans woman
Trans Exclusionary Radical Feminist. Although I don't think them to be radical at all.
FormerRei@mobile
>>459527 I wasn't 100% sure those were an actual thing. It was something I came up with as a pathological counter example in an argument a while back. I'm a little surprised that they actually exist in a large enough amount to have legion
bit when it comes to gero stories like that, i think it is because they always make the one last push that they live to tell the tale somewhat compared to someone who wpuöd have reasonably so given up after losing an arm to a grenade but then the bunker wouöd have stood atleast a ehile longer and the guy bled out
oh I forgot to put my name on this laptop Kannagi here.
This speed feels like the internet from years ago.
Kirara 🚗
>>459578 Your closest server is Denver? How horrifying. Hello Kannagi! How is New Mexico? Do you like the scenery? Did you grab a phone yet?
FormerRei@mobile
Hey Kannagi
FormerRei@mobile
You should go to a gun range.
FormerRei@mobile
Have a good fun American ™ time.
Kirara 🚗
moon's got some guns ill pick you up and we'll go shoot with him
Kannagi
>>459579 No I didn't have much time to get a phone. It is alright I am not seeing much expect for orange and trees for miles and miles It is a bit bewildering to be in such an isolated place! In the UK you are never far from like a corner shop, bus stop or something There is no bus stop here, I'll take pictures for you guys in a bit!
he was talking about shooting stuff yesterday and defended his place with a ar once He's got a few with him but not all his old ones that are with his sister
FormerRei@mobile
Oh I remembered him saying he left them with a relative.
FormerRei@mobile
>>459584 That's cause you're in the middle of nowhere. I have like four bus stops within a block of me.
Kirara 🚗
>>459584 That's so cool! I wish I were out there. The west is the best. The desert is a really special place for me where I can experience myself like nowhere else.
Kannagi
Do you think I should try walking to the nearest town? I'm like 6 miles from it, apparently should take 2 hours.
I dunno if I should, I'm scared of getting shot for transpassing or something.
>>459590 I don't think it's a good idea to do that walk on your own until your body is used to the UV in the area and you're more familiar with the landscape.
FormerRei@mobile
Also yeah
Kannagi
>>459596 It is so bright here. and dry But more so it is sunny. like there are no clouds This is a different world from the UK where are my purpetual rain clouds
Kirara 🚗
Yeah, you should get sunscreen when you go to the store, or you're going to burn like toast. I would also like to recommend some SPF chapstick or lip gloss or whatever you like, because your lips will get chapped, but if you are outside a while, they'll get burnt, too.
TN
toasted britt with eggs bacon and spam
TN
>>459599 >cold lips chap >hot lips chap >dry lips chap >>459602 at least
Kirara 🚗
The lips don't really chap in wet heat at least haha
TN
winter here is 3 months of chapped lips
Kannagi
I wonder if I'll be okay in the middle of nowhere. I am so used to walking to the shops and stuff I guess I can go walking to take pictures and stuff
Anno
My lips don't chap easily. So much of the rest of my skin dries out so easily but my lips are ironclad.
>>459604 Automobile culture is a real thing in the States. Services anywhere outside of major cities -- and even within some -- just isn't set up for people who mainly walk or use motorless transit.
>>459611 Nah 3 months is the max without visa for UK to US
Kannagi
>>459610 I wonder if it was built for like horses given how isolated places seem to be. >>459615 I don't really think so or at least nothing like this area. >>459607 But I am a tragedy on a bike I'll kill myself, I gave myself whiplash the last time I got on a bike and rode into a lamp-post
This place was nice I've been all around the west and the colors and formations are so different everywhere you go i could spend an entire life in the west
Kirara 🚗
If you go up into Colorado, you can see some stuff like this, too.
Kirara 🚗
oh no, one of my tweets got retweeted into furry twitter
I went up a hill and came back. it was pretty tiring! I didn't think it was so hot at first and then after a while I realised I was heating up pretty fast.
FormerRei@mobile
Did you go up both wys?
FormerRei@mobile
*ways
Kannagi
I need to make these pictures smaller to be able to upload them
Kannagi
It like a seaside! There is just sand everywhere
It is weird for me because sand is so strongly associated with the beach for me I kept expecting to see shells
TN
fug some older backstrain seems to have randomly resurfaced
I'm a bit jealous I don't think ive ever actually been to a desert.
Kannagi
I was scared of all the dry wood on the ground. I was worried there might be snakes hiding there were burrows on the ground it looked like though and a lot rabbit poop.
FormerRei@mobile
Neat
FormerRei@mobile
Check it out https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black-tailed_jackrabbit
Kirara 🚗
>>459638 Yeah, make sure you bring some water. At least a liter.
I'm back home. I got sufficiently scared of work introductory meeting that I will probably ganbare to not fuck anything up the good thing is that I got assigned to my "commune" which is like a part of a city. the bad thing is that courts are on the city center so i'll have to go all over the place anyway. :)
FormerRei@mobile
Okaeri
FormerRei@mobile
Huh They could be owl burrows
FormerRei@mobile
Kannagi, do you like animals?
Kirara 🚗
>>459650 the only poisonous snakes out there are rattlers so you'll have some warning most likely they don't tend to hide like that either
Arisu
>>459650 Hi.!! you're on New Mexico now right? >>459662 wow you're a nerd. i like that
>>459661 It's a common mistake The way to remember is that venomous animals inject venom into you And then poisonous animals get poison in you when you eat them or lick them or whatever
Arisu
>>459663 yes but correcting mistakes says a bit about someones' personality. some people are especially obnoxious over that.
>>459665 If they were poisonous snakes you wouldn't have to worry about them though. Unless you plan on eating them.
Arisu
but for example, plants can only be poisonous plants or mushrooms whatever.
also i think ther'es 2 types of venom necrotic and those who attack nerves. >>459668 just like everything else you know :T they feed on the ground or whatever they parasite,
>>459666 you're not wrong but the semantic information was probably transferred successfully even with my misuse of the word
Arisu
>>459669 plants have chroloplastes and everything has mythochrondria including plants yoju know
Arisu
i dont think the difference between venom and poison exist in spanish we use "venenoso" for poison even if "ponzoñoso" exist. exists*

>>459671 Not all eukaryotes have mitochondria Also I'm now having flashbacks to biology in highschool
FormerRei@mobile
HOLY SHIT SOMETHING SMELLS AWFUL
FormerRei@mobile
Smells like owl pellets
FormerRei@mobile
Mitochondria are cool though
FormerRei@mobile
>Living in open grasslands as opposed to forests, the burrowing owl has developed longer legs that enable it to sprint, as well as fly, when hunting. Neat
>>459682 or add flavour to school meals that have none
ToNToN
today’s an unhealthy week and i have accepted that and will repent foodwise
Kirara 🚗
>email saying i have to cancel my client for tomorrow after 3:00 >again i fucking hate this clinic so much
TN
>>459687 any reason why or just that they hate you?
Kirara 🚗
no reason given they're just closing the clinic early because there won't be a supervisor no reason why there won't be a supervisor and no reason why they're telling me last second
TN
that kind of mentality doesn't seem to be basis for good business must be tax funded
Kirara 🚗
and then the boss who runs the clinic, who is the primary supervisor, has the fucking gall to complain that im unprofessional
>>459690 no, funded by grad student slave labor and private grants
TN
>>459691 well basically "nlt funded by payimg customers" those institutioms either always suck or require struct regulation to keep their standards up
he provided the basis on which most therapy came to be based on and his model has shown to be somewhat effective
Anno
i mean there's nothing really right or wrong about a model in the first place it's just whether or not it's useful the predictions of a model can be wrong but ultimately a model itself is just observation of patterns
Anno
>>459697 hey, what does clinical psychology consider homeless i know that's not a psychological illness but i think it's probably a metric used a lot maybe legal definition of homeless would be a better expression do you actually gotta be out on the streets or is it just not having property or a lease in your name and not having // being a dependant of someone else -- ie couchsurfing or being given a room temporarily by family and stuff
Kirara 🚗
usually just the lay definition, someone living out on the streets it's not considered a useful thing past being a metric of socioeconomic status generally
sk
I'm homeless if it counts being dependent on someone else
Anno
>>459701 you're a dependant under your dad meaning you depend on him that's exclusion criteria from what i suggested homeless if you're not a dependant
e.g. adult children staying with their parents is probably not considered homeless an adult orphan crashing on someone's guest bed for three months while they do day laboring and save up for their own living quarters probably would i mean, i dont think homelessness goes away if you've got a roof to sleep under temporarily as it relates to psychological distress, it seems more related to the long-term lack of a stable living environment
sk
Oh I see I misread
Anno
yeah a dependant still has mostly stable living conditions like, i wouldn't consider a homeless person to now have a home unless it's either property/lease in their name, or it's long-term stable being in temporary housing or living out of a series of week-stay motels is not really a home
Anno
if you don't have // if you can't install a VR setup to use VR chat it surely can't be considered a home
Kirara 🚗
>>459705 that's the legal definition if i remember right
Anno
gonna have some birthday benzos
Kirara 🚗
oh, happy birthday
Anno
it was yesterday but i'm celebrating it today with a benzo triple dose ive been so fuckin frantic lately i think i need to be prescribed sedatives i mean lorazepam is, but not that kind the kind of sedatives they give crazy people to not be crazy anymore
ima bring back the haldol shuffle for the new generation and make it a new dance crazy DJ Hurty Bones and the haldol shuffle harlem shake gonna get btfo
Anno
im reporting all knuckles VR chat video suggestions on youtube as violent or repulsive content they keep suggesting them though
Kannagi
American bread is like brioche a bit like cake. >>459712 Yep
>>459713 Not much! I'm surrounded by trees and sand as far as the eye can see. I tempted to walk to town but it is pretty far and I might get lost. although I do have my phone for GPS
FormerRei@mobile
I accidentally ate part of a plastic fork and nnow feel like I might throw up
FormerRei@mobile
I'm sure iill be fine, but I just feel really gross.
