>>463409 Conventions can be a bit of a mixed bag. You will get the aggravating weebs with no sense of how to demonstrate their hobbies publicly, but you'll also get people that know how to operate in public and be decent. And everything inbetween, really. If you really want to avoid too many exhausting social interactions it might be best to pick out smaller conventions that wouldn't get huge crowds as likely. There likely wouldn't be much in the way of panels worth going to, but if you want to just pick out some common rabble to talk with or buy goods/self-produced art, you'll probably have a happier time doing that there than a big, super-packed convention.

Oh i was reading about that kropto russian guy earlier. he sounds interesting but also a bit too deep for my smol brain
Kirara 🚗
kropotkin? are you interested in reading some anarchist lit?
Arisu
yes i also plan to join the chilean movements but i need some more info since i think i still read reality in a state-like way. idk how to say it. but. i'm more open to it now.
If you're interested in anarchy from a practical standpoint, I'd recommend Anarchy Works by Peter Gelderloos. It discusses a lot of existing and historic anarchistic societies and covers a wide range of topics that people usually have trouble understanding how they could work without a state. If you're interested in a theory standpoint, Anarchism: From Theory to Practice is a good book. By Daniel Guerin. It goes into some practical applications but it also discusses the ideas of people like Proudhon, Stirner, and Kropotkin.
One of the important things about anarchy, though, is that it's very practice-driven. Because it's always anti-authoritarian people coming together, mostly without theoretical foundations, it usually ends up straying from "established" theory but generally is very successful
>>463485 I know of it, but I don't really know the details.
Arisu
Honestly, I really have been thinking of pushing a political career as soon as possible. but im still too green about these things. wouldn't want to fuck up before starting.
Arisu
Do you know about the student movement? the one who happened here?
Arisu
They were able to push their way to a rad-left political coalition. they got 20% in last year election. But it might need a bigger push to get anywhere near government. But in case it happened it could be great---
That's cool. I don't really trust states, and leftists that like the state in particular worry me, but I hope it works out. I know there have been some leftish states that haven't been too bad.
Arisu
>>463487 yes but the point is that the kind of "left" they're been pushing towards is way more closer to anarchism than to ML or other collectivist and authoritarian stuff. really, i think mainstream ML is definitely not my taste and i would rather live free but idk. really. that's why i need to read about it if i get convinced or not.
Oh, that's cool. Anarchy Works is a really good book and it's pretty easy to read. Much easier than anything Kropotkin or the other old theorists wrote.
>>463490 Well, if you get an anarchistic society going, then the US will come and install a government for you. Unfortunately.
Kannagi
Wouldn't the big countries of the world want avoid others making stateless countries *want to avoid
Arisu
The one think i dont know how it would be dealt is just that, the international scale. like, we're definitely not america and if a tiny country would pull something like that they would just isolate them. >>463489 Well i already dealt with the effects of that. like, the biggest ally of states are their own militaries and they wouldn't just stand and let others do what they dont want them to do. others i mean people who dont want the state.
Maybe you'll get lucky and half the military will be anti-authoritarian and they'll help without trying to install a military dictatorship or they'll just go fight while the people start their societies That's what happened in Spain in the 30s, a ton of anarchistic communes got working really well and had a great network going, but then the Spanish military got fucked by the part of the military Stalin was funding and the Stalin-funded Spanish soldiers destroyed all the anarchists and helped to establish a military dictatorship that eventually turned into fascism and is still fascism today. Oops.
I don't trust the military, sorry. I know them enough to know they're the real enemy.
Arisu
>>463492 Really hate spain. great people on the left tried helping the minorities affected by the war thing. but franco's legacy continues even today. and i dont see any way it will change soon.
>>463494 It's sad to see the Catalans being brutalized by Spain. It's even sadder to see the Spanish people marching in the streets with their seig heils and praising the Spanish police for their brutality.
Arisu
the worst thing is how they are slowly kind of naturalizing this state of things. idk how to explain but like, Ciudadanos is one of the liberal movements and they supposedly originated in catalonia but they're full for applying the repressive laws against their own people.
and then you get that guy who praised the bus killing on germany as "karma"
It's really hard to watch and it seems like it's getting worse all the time. I wish there was something anyone could do.
Arisu
If anything I am glad i see things this way and not just accept them as "inevitable" or "neccesary" injustice will never be inevitable or neccesary. I just can't accept that.
Yeah, but if you have a warrant out for your arrest in an EU state, then all of the EU tries to exercise that warrant so they can extradite you. The German courts let Puigdemont go, though. He's back on the run.
Kannagi
>he was detained by a highway patrol in the northern German state of Schleswig-Holstein, and released him on bail, with the court deciding he cannot be extradited for "rebellion". wow "rebellion"
Kirara 🚗
yeah, spain is saying he broke the law by trying to secede from spain even though there was so much support spain won't let catalonia go because barcelonia accounts for like 20% of spain's GDP
Arisu
>>463504 he had interpol arrest order against him. but extraditing only applies if the - all the requisites for that apply. >>463507
he is searched for that and because he "used public funds for an illegal eneavor" i think it's embellezement? like, since seceding is illegal he used public money and his authority for it.

There is no way spain would have let it happen legitimately 20% of their GDP is just too high. There is no legal demoncractic way for them to become independant

Yeah, maybe you can charge a separate battery and use that so you can make sure you get your photos off the phone, at least. Or you could just have two batteries and replace them periodically like Blue used to do.

I'd need to get something to charge the battery out of the phone; it's the actual USB port into the phone that seems broken or something. Not that there's a mundane way of getting at the battery, it looks like the device is sealed shut to prying hands. dsafdsd

>>464046 What you want to do is just focus to infinity and take a picture of the sky. The easiest way to do that is to focus on the object farthest away from you, which should be the point at which no matter how much you turn the focus, it doesn't get more in focus. Eventually you'll be able to find infinity focus without needing to use a reference. You also want to be at 18mm, which is the lowest zoom the kit lens should have. Did any of the pictures come out clearly? If not, what f stop were you at and what was your ISO?

they probably do it should have all the settings in the exif data
>>463669 >>463670 these two are really good >>463682 this one, you had almost 70 second exposure which is why it doesn't look great
the first two, you used 800 ISO, f/3.6, and 20 second exposure which looks like it worked out well for where you were them being resized may have helped them look so good but they do look very good if you're in that area again, i'd try it with the same exposure and f-stop but maybe higher ISOs unless you did something with that but with higher ISO and it turned out crappy
my best ones at the everglades had 5 second exposure times because there was a controlled burn going nearby which contributed a lot of light pollution

I think people desperate for publications will just use whatever data and stretch it to fit whatever they like. the amount of times terrible journals are quoted in mass media is amazing, just because something has been published doesn't mean it is absolute unfailable fact.

It'll probaby be things like "Dick data leaked prematurely"

>>464127 The massive dick leak has sparked controversy about privacy regulations
"It is ridiculous that we, as the richest country on earth, do not have privacy regulation for the privates of the people." Bernie Sanders is quoted as saying in a press release

Yeah we could use better ones, better enforcement if existing ones would be great too.
Eh, not really. Studios don't have much of a say in whether they do sequels or not. All those decisions get made up by the production committee that's made up of the people who have economic investment in the production.
>>464145 producer and shit I wonder how anime studios actually work as a company from shirobako already they seemed quite curious entities
Anno
Studios are contracted to do anime projects. For the most part. Exceptions would be stuff like KyoAni and Ghibli, who are fairly self-autonomous. And then there's probably studios that have special deals with publishing houses, like how Toei seems to get first dibs on most the stuff Shounen Jump puts out. Them and Pierrot at least.
Kannagi
Well if it is an adaptation, the publishers of the original material have a strong input into if it gets a sequel or not. generally they prefer to get more of the original material sales so some animes are made for the purpose of selling more the manga or more the LN and they stop abruptly at the start of the interesting arc to encourage sales.
For stuff like that it can be hard for them to have sequels.
Random thought japs eat a lot of salt in their food, well sodium, right? So do they have high blood pressure or cardiovascular? risks or cases out there
FormerRei@mobile
Don't think so Even if they do, they still have the highest life expectancy in the world.
While other places lack thatk ind of work related culture mentality, their stress death levels, especially in the past were way higher than elsewhere so diet might be the final nail in the coffin who knows
FormerRei@mobile
I'm imagining some of that stuff will be gotten rid of soon though. Japanese corporate culture is actually a major contributor to the declining birthrates.

FormerRei@mobile
>>464158 The government has been doing some light pushing on industry to give young people more time off. To encourage people to get into relationships. But I don't think thats enough.
Kannagi
Japanese people don't typically have that much in the way of heavy salt diets. eating ramen everyday is actually considered lazy and bad for you like fast food over here. Soy sauce is a dipping sauce not covering things. >>464162 They use soy careful actually, a lot of Japanese cooking is about subtle flavouring. The big health issues for high blood pressure for Japan is actually that Japanese women tend to have small babies and themselves are thin when they give birth so they end up affecting the kidneys at birth
A lot of people over in the UK slather soy sauce all over their food and all over their rice but in Japan you have small dipping bowl for soy typically for meals in Japan. It is too overwhelming a flavour to fit unless it is a big ramen dish or something fast food.
Just pondered, since once industrialisation hit us and salt and butter became commodities, people began to really use those more as traditional celebratory dishes high in butter and salt became day to day meals so cardiovascular disease was killing us left and right gov took action against it and now it is at normal rates
so just thought if japs, since they do have higher sodium intake than average downtrodder, would have some similiar issues. >>464167 yeh
>>464165 I'll be inclined to take a fair bit of soy sauce with my rice at home. But I'll opt for whatever the restaurant seems to assume is normal when I'm eating at places.
Kannagi
>>464168 Same. I pour a lot on and apparently that was shocking to a Japanese friend I was talking to. They thought it was really weird to actually pour soy sauce instead of use it lightly.
FormerRei@mobile
>>464166 How much? Genuinely curious. Price differences in commodities is something that interests me a lot.
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
I dunno from memory but let's say at cheapest something like 7€ a litre
FormerRei@mobile
>>464171 Of that's not too bad. A liter of soy will last you a long time.
like actually pouring salt on things some meat dishes etc >>464179 also I actually use LESS soy per meal than the average westerner would pour on it, say it being wok + rice
but really think about it in two months you makle about 40 meals at home you use a slight pour or two per dish, say averaging to 2cl and you ahve about a litre of it used
FormerRei@mobile
Yeah I can see that. I do sandwiches for like 40% of my meals though. And then cheese based pasta dishes for another 30 or so percent. So just cause of the type of things I make I don't use it a lot.

I got surprised TWICE today. Very rare. A professor pulled me aside and asked me if I was okay because he was worried about me, and I was like, "uhh, i don't know."
Then a colleague told me she got diagnosed with ADD and wanted to know how I manage to function so well with it, and I ended up talking about how society just built in a way that allows us to thrive easily, and she was like, "so what do we do?" and I said "Uhh, burn it down, I guess."
I'm pretty hard to surprise, honestly since i have ptsd and ADHD i'm hypervigilant to an overwhelming degree and not much goes on in the environment that I don't notice. If I actually get surprised, I jump really high, but that's only if something I wasn't aware of interacts with me, like if someone manages to sneak up on me. If someone I was aware of does something to surprise me, I don't really show the surprise.
I still don't see you as hard to surprise or at the very least, the type that doesn't ever seem susprised when they actually are.
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
>>464255 > someone I was aware of does something to surprise me, I don't really show the surprise. how is it a surprise then, unless it is the kind of hmm surprise present thing, but
>>464260 that is more of a stratle reaction similiar to jump scares
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
you aren't scared or surprised you are startled
Kirara 🚗
i think startled and surprised are used interchangably pretty often maybe i'm misusing the word surprise
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
they are very similiar, but I think deep down the emotional and instintive responses differ
I think surprise is something that is unexpected, but it can be bad, good or neutral startle is always you to reacting something unexpected that may potentionally cause harm to you atleast that is what your brain tells you
I'm jumpy. It's easy to get a jolt out of me through sudden movements or noises. But I'm pretty aware of sounds and my environment outside of, like, maybe twenty centimetres off my body. It takes a fair bit of effort to sneak up on me.
When I was working at the brewery, you'd get people some times who'd drop wooden pallets from standing on their side to flat on the floor. And the impact of that landing on concrete was really, really fucking loud. Gave me an honest heart skip on occasion. I almost feel some of the co-worked probably thought I had some kind of trauma or something. I'm really just jumpy.

Your language is also a baby compared to most languages of the world. One that was born in a time when there existed the capacity to bureacratically spread the word about a formalized language now being spoken. English, by the time that time came about, was way too developed and spread throughout the contemporary world, to change. And even then, you can actually see parts of the language which have, after that point, disappeared from use due to standardization.
>>464324 most languages of europe can easily claim to be more than 1000 year old china can say iti s fucking 5000 at the very least jewish is older than god almost but finland 400 years
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
>>464322 I wouldn't call 1600 sweden, especially the dukedom of finland "well organised"
Coincidentally, while language reforms took place during the Russian Grand Duchy eras, one of the first things we did as an independent state was reform our language and then kept doing that Hell, we still do it every year
Anno
Reforming English is a useless motion. There's just too many people that speak it. Too many people that don't care if an office in Britain or America dictates that certain words are improper or are supposed to be used X way and another word Y.
Yeah doing it now is just impossible you'd have to have a culture and tradition of doing it constantly like we have had since early 19th century or even earlier

>>464374 I remember the simpsons did an indian episode and it was like apu told homer than he had to go visit his cousin and homer looked for an indian guy and they were all indian. in general they pushed the "dumb, unhygienic minority" stereotype a lot. >>464377 it's probably not the simpsons fault but all indian characters have the same traits. which are not good.
but is apu really that racist anyhow? it is morel ike "confirming your bias" than "forming your bias" if you ask me.

>>464377 For someone who has never talked with someone from South Asia, Apu may be the only actual person of that heritage they have ever encountered. Especially in some hard-white parts of America where The Simpsons is broadcasted. In that case Apu would very likely be their first impression of someone of that heritage.

>>464443 Only particularly relevant over a certain size. And even then, the bra may relieve backpain, but bras also generally cause some discomfort because of the generalizations that need to be incorporated into the design. If you could afford to buy a custom-made bra, you could most likely kill both back pain and the discomfort. But not everyone has the freedom to afford or even find an outlet to acquire one of those.

I remember this one op-ed someone wrote in my school paper about the dance team/various women's teams couldn't exercise outdoors in bras when sometimes the male atheletes would sometimes take their shirts off during practice if it was a hot day? It was just that one girl that wrote the article that wanted to have the school allow it, the vast majority of the girls didn't want even MORE male attention than they already had and liked the fact they could check out guys, but the guys couldn't really check them out??? shrugs I don't really remember much about the "controversy" anyway.

I don't agree with drawing a line here, but if they are going to do it, don't force her through some riduculous resolution.

>ULYANOVSK, Russia — A Russian woman reportedly died after a routine procedure when hospital workers mistakenly injected her with a drug used to preserve dead bodies. >Ekaterina Fedyaeva, 28, underwent surgery last month at a hospital in Ulyanovsk, in western Russia, to have ovarian cysts removed, according to state-owned television station RT. >Hospital staff realized the mistake two minutes later and tried to wash out the formalin, but it was too late – the embalming fluid was already making its way through her body. i am screaming

>>464510 Yeah, but wearing a cross is "oppressive"
>“Mom, I’m dying,” Fedyaeva later told her mother, who thought she wasn’t being serious at the time, according to RT. Fedyaeva was rushed to Moscow’s A.I. Burnazyan Federal Medical and Biophysical Center where doctors administered multiple drugs in an attempt to counteract the formalin, according to Tass, but they were unable to save her. >At one point, doctors brought her to back to consciousness and Fedyaeva’s mother said she opened her eyes and whispered to her, according to RT. In the end, however, Fedyaeva’s organs started to shut down and she died Thursday.

>>464509 wtf russia should be deleted from the earth.
>>464536 the docs might not be bad, but the hygiene standards of the hospital mightb e
FormerRei@mobile
>>464532 Anyways one of the reasons for that is that they'll give the person larger fake breasts than would be allowed. In the US there are rules regarding that stuff.
>>464543 see >>464544 but basically russia is bloody barbaric country in a sense they lack so many basic standards, rules, legislation, and so on for shit you think would be normal >>464547 it is actually more of a problem nowadays, with putin in power, tha they don't have them and no one just has realised they need to implement them than not enforcing
the "bribe cop to get free" isn't so viable anymore, atleast as far as I know atleast smuggling from russia isn't so easy nowadays
it's like how after you smoke every day for decades, it takes a long time for your lungs to heal only in this situation, the smoking is actually being a marxist-leninist state
You get the right cigarettes and it can smell nice. It also does put you under a mild influence and can make you feel better. By no means is it advisable or worth it but to say it isn't pleasant isn't objectively correct.
FormerRei@mobile
I actually like the smell of cigarette smoke.
FormerRei@mobile
I don't smoke though.
Kirara 🚗
i don't particularly mind the smell of the smoke but i hate the smell that lingers on people's clothes
Maria
>>464551 Same I love it I don't like smoking but I do like the smell
Arisu
I just meant smoking. I tried bunch of times and then I couldn't breathe.
Kirara 🚗
i mean i don't have a problem with people who smoke as long as they're aware that it's bad for them i'm cool with people doing pretty much anything to their own bodies as long as they're competent
Arisu
>>464556 you still have a heart issue or was that solved or medicated somehow?
Maria
Spike Spiegel smokes Don'tcha wanna be cool like him son
>>464562 i guess i remembered it somewhat. My dog trip to the vet ended up with we getting heart medicine to compensate it. she will end up taking it forever.
>>464556 this is why I am for total freeing of all substances, save for stuff like antibiotics and shit whose free spread can have dire circumstances let people use what they want on their own and deal with the issues on their own
Maria
>>464561 what is the difference between being dead and not being born yet when you think about it we've all been dead for thousands of years
Kirara 🚗
lmao yeah i didn't think about it before but antibiotics are probably the most dangerous thing people put in their bodies
>>464566 As per the poetic irony that pervades so much of human culture, we're really good at slamming intense restrictions on the things we don't really need to, and let slide with way too many things that would be better to control.
Talesof !NuKeSlvmWE
>>464566 do you know how many people call in going "yeah can my doctor just call me in an antibiotic without me being seen"
Arisu
>>464566 yeah i guess we should just die when we get sick uwu
>>464572 still, there's better ways to get better from illness than antibiotics so yeah. especially ones who are put on crops and animals.
Kirara 🚗
people die when they are killed WE GOTTA RETURN TO NATURE
FormerRei@mobile
>>464573 Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh Enjoy dying of a bacterial infection They shouldn't be used on livestock though.
north america used to be pretty much free of the infectious diseases that killed so many until somepeople not naming names here brought them to north america and they killed everyone
Arisu
>>464578 i sincerely can't buy this. infections were the main cause of death until very recently.
Anno
No, he's technically correct. Infections are worldwide, but the ones that killed so many people were contained to Eurasia because infectious diseases tend to have a hard time crossing oceans without assistance.
>>464581 i was trying not to name names but i actually mean westerners
Arisu
americans were so happy they had to kill each other for a change. also the only real "state" in americas was the Inca who dominated the whole of southamerica. others .. m rightr, city states are states.
FormerRei@mobile
It balances out because we sterners eliminated smallpox
FormerRei@mobile
>>464583 Whoah Check your privilege What about the Maya? Otlr Aztecs? Or the mound builders?
Maria
>>464584 >create problem >proceed to eliminate it WE DID IT
Kirara 🚗
none of those civilizations had a state in the traditional sense of what a state is
>>464586 westerners confirmed for bioengineering smallpox
>>464588 spread it >>464587 And I would've gotten away with it if it weren't for you meddling jews
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
>>464587 lol no one in europe either had a state in the traditional sense of what a state is back then
Arisu
But really, tahuantinsuyus were basically the closest thing to an empire and they colonized the other tribes and built fortresses on their lands. they also did that incest royal thingy like egyptians.
Kirara 🚗
>>464590 in the 1700s, what europeans had was much more close to what we now consider states than what the north and south american civilizations had, though
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
>>464592 fucking incas and aztecst and what nots where killed in the 16th century
>>464602 how much have you actually studied european history in terms of statecraft?
Kirara 🚗
>>464604 enough that i can say that "the europeans of the 1500s lived in what was closer to the modern state than the inca and mayans of the 1500s did" it's a fact
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
Yes Inca and central american states were behind europeans in general when it came to statecraft but it isn't that much
>>464608 My friend owes me a v A box of those He asked me to do something and I refused, he said "would you do it for scooby snacks" and I said hell yeah I did the thing months ago and he still hasn't paid up
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
>>464605 the "modern state" anyhow is based on the ideals of enlightenment and after that so modern state is based on european ideals anyhow it isn't like they actually weren't some of the best around but it isn't that they were objectively best around anyhow
so of course a statehood developed completely separate of whole of Eurasian and african continets... of course it is going to be quite different from what we know of
but in the end incans, aztecs monarchies
Maria
>>464609 He also owes you a 360 controller He needs to pay denbts
>>464612 wow a whole family indebted I hope you're charging interest
FormerRei@mobile
>>464613 No So his brother owed him a 360 controller, but I purchased that debt by giving him the 360 controller Also he's bought me shit tons of great birthday gifts over the decade or so we've been friends so I wouldn't charge interest
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
>>464610 they were pretty much at the same level ancient time civilizations were they were advanced and complex but they lacked the "teachings of failure" we and chinese and so on had gathered
Kirara 🚗
>>464610 i think it's a little misleading to call them monarchies they were described as monarchies by the invaders who didn't study them enough to look at the actual way the empires were run, but we know today that they weren't exactly monarchies in the way european monarchies were
Arisu
>>464592 hm.. my point was that the inca empire was closer to what egypt and persia had on the ancient times. obviously the spanish kingdom was a bureaucratic monarchy which influenced how most of the americas understand the state even know. basically, it's an extension of the idea of the king.
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
>>464616 we have MORE data of them from themselves nowadays than from the invaders, dude
Kirara 🚗
>>464618 and that's one of the ways we know they weren't monarchies in the european sense
FormerRei@mobile
Okay But why did they have roads and no wheel?
Aliens
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
>>464619 and chinesew eren't monarchies in the european sense or japensese or indian states or africans or so on and so forth everywhere monarchy just means a certain kind of ruling system, where the crown is passed along blood ties *state leadership
Arisu
>>464619 there was a recent discovery of a mayan metropolis. but those guys were more like the daimyos, feuding clans.
Kirara 🚗
>>464621 aztec "emperor" wasn't even a monarch the only thing they did was organize war efforts and demand tributes they were more a religious figurehead they had next to no control over the normal going-ons of the empire
>>464622 i read about that, it was pretty interesting
Arisu
the real "stateless communities" in the americas were either in US territory, or in places like the amazons and the patagonia. they were a myriad of clans who agreed on working together to fight the invaders, at least the mapuche did. they still do it today.
FormerRei@mobile
Also the inuit And native Canadians
Arisu
>>464625 inuits yeah. they were so away from empires they kept living the same as they always did.
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
>>464623 there is comically missing the point, there is missing the point and then there is purposefulyl missing the point
FormerRei@mobile
Hey Do you ever just Undomesticate the dog?
Arisu
Monarch and theocrat are slightly different i guess. in our western tradition, the emperor represented the "temporal power" and the pope "spiritual power" but on other places they were one and the same.
Kirara 🚗
>>464628 the aztec ruler and crown was not passed down through blood rights to it
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
>>464631 and neither were for example swedish, hungarian or polish crown or holy roman emperor crown
Arisu
imo "aztecs" were just the people who lived in tenotchitlan. they exhorted tributes and sacrifices from the other clans on mexico.

>>464634 i wish i had finished that aztec anime. Rokusomething.
Kirara 🚗
>>464633 yeah, basically the empire wasn't actually an "empire" it was only called an empire and is called an empire because westerners don't know how to conceptualize things that aren't western and seek to find similar analogs to what they have
many of these "empires" were just the spreading of religion or the creation of communities for trade and they would work together for defense occasionally
a bunch of TERFs have been trying to push that the youtube shooter was trans it's so stupid and annoying they don't want to admit that women kill too
Arisu
>>464653 I know the origins. I wonder how can you conclude this is an effect of gaslighting. women can be evil jjust as much as men do. the issue is that men have been evil for like 99% of history. there weren't enough bad girls .
it was basically just a very strange girl but i can't imagine her not being a girl. even if she had been AMAB the issue is that terfs are mad they lost the moral superiority of "all mass shooters are male".
Maria
wait was she trans
Kirara 🚗
no they were AFAB and female when they did it but she has muscles so the TERFs are saying it's a man
>>464692 i was like >today is the day >what date? >you know saku's day >yeah and? >so buy saku beer instead of bear beer >but bear beer is better >but is saku day >nah that was in march or shit, aye? >uuh, not sure >so I buy bear beer

>Yoko Taro: I think the question also asked why weren’t there romantic scenes, I actually think there was, where spoiler and spoilers are kind of stabbing each other. Isn’t that kind of romantic? I want to be this guys friend
>>464694 last year on the philly trip, tilde and jan bought some saku beer and never drank it so i ended up bringing it home with me and it's been sitting in my fridge

Anno
>>464697 Neither of us are very good at remembering things, I feel, hah hah. I'm a little surprised you didn't pour it out or something. It's not like it was crazy expensive.
rest in peace and when we meet in afterlife I will say "I told you so"

Both her and her brother are really doing a good job of following their father's legacy though. They're both pretty involved in animal protection and helping public awareness of critters, whether that's fighting assumed stigmas or bringing awareness to animal plights that people might not know of. They both seem like pretty great kids.

I saw an interview with a bit time conservationist once, who talked about his friendship with Steve Irwin. He said that prior to meeting Steve, he thought the man was a complete idiot who cashed in on doing dumb stuff with animals. He said once he met Steve he was very impressed with him after Steve took him aside, dropped the act, and explained that doing dumb stuff with animals was his way of advancing the agenda of conservation. The guy being interviewed, I don't remember his name, said that Steve's way of doing things was very effective and that they were friends for life after that.
>>464740 It's very impressive I like people who can mix the "silly things" with a serious compromise for making the world better.
Anno
>>464740 I believe I read that same interview at one point. Or something. I know what you're referring to at least. Irwin really did a lot of good with his work, bringing awareness of animals to people who hadn't previously known, an awareness which really helped people care more. He was a real solid bloke.
>>464746 It would have been pretty great if the marketing material for John Wick portrayed it as one of those corny feel-good movies about a man and his dog. Subverting expectations can be a lot of fun.
Arisu
>>464747 honeslty i think not many people would go watch a show - movie abour keanu but he does have a charm.
I hate it when people leave juuuust too much in leftovers of something super popular in my house, just too much for me to take what I'd like as my portion. Because then my choices are take less than what I'd prefer, leave a pathetically small amount left, or take all that's left and both feel kind of greedy and kind of oversatisfied. It's not something with a preferable option for myself.
Anno
>>464748 Don't be silly, there is a huge amount of people who would watch anything involving Keanu.
Neighbour feeds pigeons and they are all over the place.

Yeah, they'd probably be pretty bad too. My neighbourhood's pretty suburban-y so I don't really see many 'round here. Get more of an arrange of bird species instead of an army of one. But birds are pest-y, but raccoons are actually a danger. You don't want to have to worry about raccoons picking a fight with your cat, I tell you.
