>>476576 I don't really feel like there's any downside to waking up in the evening, honestly!
Anno
I don't really feel there's an issue with it either. But other people around me do, and if I want to eliminate stresses, a compromise is nice. Not being able to sleep at times that have me waking up in the afternoon or later, but being able to stay up to fairly late in the night, is a nice one.
My ability to actually do that though has been slipping. Sleep is hard.
Maria
Sometimes it feels nice getting up earlier Even if I don't truly gain extra hours, it feels as though I've gained extra hours
A year and a half or so ago, I had to wake up at 5AM one day out of the week and I hated it so much. It was nice to have time to go to the shops and stuff and it was convenient for the schedule of ToN's 13th age campaign but that was all the benefit I felt. Usually when I go on a trip I'm the last person to wake up too. Waking up before noon S U C K S
Anno
I can't remember the last exact time I had a restful sleep, and woke up not wanting to just lay in bed for another two hours or so. It was maybe three months or so back, but my idea of it is so vague. And certainly has not happened since then.
Anno
>>476582 I 'm rarely the last person up on trips, not because of any particular sleeping schedule. It's just hard for me to sleep heavily in unfamiliar places.
There isn't really any set schedule to when I sleep, unless I force it. I just sleep when I'm tired.
>>476583 That's a pretty long time to go without restful sleep. I usually sleep well at least a few times a week. Typically if I don't get good sleep it's because I stayed up too late playing mobage. Or my AC broke
>>476584 Hotel beds that are clean and fairly well maintained are usually more comfortable than my actual bed so no complaints here. I've only ever had one hotel bed that was almost too uncomfortable to sleep in but it was still better than sleeping on the cold hard ground. and last time I went camping I literally slept on the cold hard ground. While it was raining, because I didn't have a sleeping bag. Feeling the rain rush underneath the tent was a cool sensation but it was a little cold and uncomfortable.
Nezi !Neziwi/5.M
sleeping on ground > sleeping in a chair
Anno
>>476586 When I'm in hotels I'm usually on the couch if not the floor! Couches can be super comfy to sleep on though, as long as I have some kind of blanket. Even floors aren't so bad with a blanket, but it's definitely less comfy. >>476589 Hah hah hah. I'm pretty used to couches. When I'm up at my family's cottage my options are pretty limited between sleeping in the room as my sister(s), climbing up a super steep ladder to get to a bunk, or a couch. I don't like sleeping in the close proximity of my sisters' bedroom and the ladder isn't something I really want to do when I'm tired enough to sleep, so I end up on a couch. There was one summer I spent pretty much every sleep on a cramped couch with sratchy, stiff fabric. After that, all those hotel couches we've hit up have felt amazing.
>>476588 >Bunk bed Bunk beds feel weird! Not as weird as a waterbed but still up there in terms of weirdness. I'd probably take the couch in that situation too. Before we cleaned the room I use as my bedroom up I slept on the couch for a few years. It was difficult when people were awake while I was trying to sleep.
Anno
I grew up on a bunkbed, so I guess they're less weird to me. But these bunks are higher up than your standard bunkbed and they're kind of right up against the slope of the roof. And as you're laying there falling asleep you can hear the scritching of some insect or animal in the roof. They're also out in a detached bunkie from the actual cottage, which isn't a very comfortable place to be in if you're not sleeping, so I'd be spending most of my time in the main building anyway. And I'm not really inclined to head out fromt -from the cottag e at like 02:00 or 03:00 in the morning, especially if it's been snowing or raining.
sometimes I get this head throb where everything feels excessively loud even my own thoughts feel like they're screaming at me
Anno
I don't think I've ever had one like that. For me it's just hard to function because I can't keep my thoughts straight without my conscience derailing into how much the headache hurts.
>>476594 antihistamine headache? >>476596 when I was sick with the flu I had that kind of headache everything else felt hyper sensitive too though
usually the worst i get is a mild grating pressure on my eyeballs
Anno
>>476597 that is just my silly way of saying I was caught off guard by my sinuses and spent a good bit of the day a sneezing, sniffing mess and now as a result I have a headache coming on sometimes if I get a antihistamine early enough I can catch it but it doesn't help when I'm running low on them
Anno
I don't think I ever noticed how bad my sinuses got until I first started working as an apprentice painter

I'm sure she has more than 28 units And if they aren't that strong, just make your first team not that strong. Really she doesn't need to get to the end, just enough to get onto the board. Come out with 7-9 extra coins. I aim for 15-17 coins in AA and it's an absolute nightmare.

i'm reading this client record and it says the client stopped drinking 4 years ago when she found out her son was gay because she thought God was punishing her for her drinking by turning her son gay
it's weird how many people are so self-absorbed that they think God is going to make other people do things to them or do things in general to punish them it kind of conflicts with the notion of free will in Christianity and the New Testament, does God make people do things? in the Old Testament, he just kind of makes people more stubborn sometimes at most
As for the question hmm only direct interference from god aside jesus doing things was with Paul when Jesus came to him "paul y u such a dick, chill out man"

also it is fucking self-centered of all the people in the world it is YOUR drinking and YOUR son that god concerns himself on
Kannagi
I dunno the idea of someone going HA, I'm going make your life bad by making your son take a dick up the butt. is hilarious.
Kirara 🚗
>>476824 right? it's so weird if we assume God is making choices for everyone like that, then God has to be arranging so many things at once Which would mean it can't be self-centered like that because He's going to be taking into account every aspect of everything, far beyond what we can imagine
Nezi !Neziwi/5.M
nah when you find out your son is gay, you're supposed to INCREASE the drinking if you're not okay with it, what a dumb bitch she can't even be a bad mother correctly
Kannagi
I wonder if by quitting drinking she is hoping her son will turn into a hetrosexual again but atleast she can't get abusive with her son over her homophobia. since she apparently caused it. w
>>476838 >reads everything Blue actually has tastes.
Anno
>>476809 idk that kind of makes sense to me feeling that your drinking caused you to lose control of raising your family right manifesting as divine feelings of guilt for betraying the path you could/should have had it's not like drinking makes her son straight but maybe it's an eye-opener to what she views as neglect neglected your son's emotional needs so that he couldn't function in what that society views as responsible and acceptible
i'm not calling gay a mental illness but i'm not gonna lie that people with hard lives and lots of emotional problems are more likely to seek out those relationships that are out of the socionormative bounds
There are not enough cute stories about people dating. It's funny because in this instance you have someone who is a cat. It's not even two NORMAL people.

not looking forward to tomorrow >>477016 first day of night shift I gotta wake up, be awake for a while, and then go back to sleep so I wake up like at 8 or so so I can go to work at 11 Until 7am >>477017 Yeah, factory work Tomorrow's just gonna be fucky because I spent today high rather than adjusting my sleep schedule
>>477013 it's crazy how popular that game is the media has been making a big deal about how all the kids are playing it at school and stuff, but i kind of doubted it until my client in high school started telling me about it he doesn't usually play shooting games but he's gotten really into fortnite
Yeah It is like, actually the best BR game though, without comparison
I was playing it back when they had just gotten the BR out of the door, and had a lotta fun Playing again now with dutchfriend Well, he just went to bed, and I will soon too, but we might play tomorrow before I go to work
I find it strange how your clients are able to be so open When I was with a psych, I was still really reserved and didn't know how to talk about anything that isn't like, normal stuff
Yeah, I'm very informal with my clients. I try to make sure there isn't a big difference in the power differential between us because I think therapy should be client-oriented and that means the client should have a lot of power in the relationship. I try to treat clients in a really friendly way, and I'm willing to talk about things they like to talk about to build rapport.
I make an effort to show that I'm accepting pretty much anything my client does or tells me.
Not all of my clients are incredibly open with me to start off. Right now, I have four clients. One of them views me as something of a role-model because I'm technically a successful person with ADHD and have experienced some of the difficulties he has experienced. One of them is autistic and doesn't really identify with other people or understand their intentions, and he's open with me because he doesn't have the sense to hide things most of the time. One of my clients is a lady with PTSD and she's pretty open with me about emotions and her interpersonal relations, but she's been reluctant to describe the traumatic event which I believe is related to a sexual incident during her childhood. Considering I've only seen her twice, I think that's reasonable. The last client is the Asperger's kid, and I'm still working on getting him to feel open with me. Last session, I found out he really loves star wars, ship designs, and the Pacific War in WWII, so we were talking about different Star Wars ship designs we like and stuff.
You can't be friends with a client, I bet, but you can't just look down on them all "I am going to heal you" that is for medical doctors for doctors of the mind it is different
so from fish to crabpatties how did they get in the department of mysteries well the whole government thing all british public offices close at like 16 and i bet the magic world isn't any different How did they break in to the ministery of magic, being just students even if it isn't heavily guarded, you can't break into a normal ministery that easy so you'd guess it would be as dificult to break into the magic version of one, aye? maybe the books explained it, but the movie just skipping it through is bit...
Anno
>>477030 Because Voldemort and the Death Eaters knew about the prophecy sphere too. The whole thing was a set-up to get Harry to get into the department and grab it.
>>477032 I think it's pretty obviously implicit that the Death Eaters had set the department up so that Harry had a clear route in. At least, from reading both the books and watching the movies.
>>477031 Yeah but one throw away line to explain how they got there instead of just >flying over londond >inside the department it leaves a plot hole in the story
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
>>477031 yes but I have seen just the movie and it doesn't mention anything except what you can figure out I dunno them running to the elevator going "oddly empty out here" and then going "voldie and co must be already inside" or whatver
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
and this is just 2:18 long solid 20 minutes longer than goblet *shorter a minute long scene of them breaking into the initial buildign wouldn't really break the narrative or anything
>>477029 Yeah. Psychology has been pursuing a medical model lately, so a lot of psychologists have the mindset of "I'm the expert and I'm going to fix you" which I think is really harmful to a lot of patients.
>>477035 But that doesn't work for medicine it is actually kinda required at times, all that "mind makes it real" as placebo is real but you can't order someone to get rid of mental issues
Those kinds of psychologists like to use behavioral stuff, which can work even without a really good relationship. That turns into the client mostly doing homework and trying to change the way they think and stuff like that, so it works well for stuff like anxiety and sometimes depression as well as some other issues, but I don't really like that method and don't find it very useful It's like giving a person a bandaid for a lost limb. I want them to leave therapy with a prosthetic.
Fuck i get this and I am a total layman how do the pros not get this?
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
also they rode from hogwards to london on those death horseys that no one can see unless they have seen death wonder what kind of experience that was to the ones that didn't see them >spend hours riding invisible flying thing
>>477028 I think I just have issues talking to anyone really I'm always just filling a role so I can go back home, even when I do stuff I want to myself
It makes social stuff difficult because I'm not actually there, I'm just playing a part
Anno
>>477039 As far as magic goes, it's probably not all a big deal really.
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
>>477041 "revealus death horsus" yeah but once again, maybe show it
Anno
No what I mean is it's probably not a big deal for the riders because as far as it goes, invisible creatures isn't all that big a thing.
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
>>477043 oh right that kind of way but I dunno seeing the reactions to it would have been amusing, but yeah it would have removed the whole "gotta save sirius" tension that was going on
Really I've gotten through most of the stuff I went there for to begin with Well, coped I still get hit sometimes and can't deal too easily but I've somehow been able to repress it easier since
The major depression is more or less lifted anyway, even if the symptoms exist
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
*wand cane
Anno
Oh the nights are still going to be a little cold but there's highs of mid-teens during the day this weekend.
>>477047 To me, it's seemed like over the past year or so, you've really developed a lot into someone with a more stable sense of self. Before, your perceptions of yourself seemed to fluctuate a lot between high and low and it didn't seem like you knew who you really were. It looks like you've had a better idea of who you are lately.
>>477054 I think as you continue to mature, you'll start to feel a lot more satisfied, especially once some of your more superficial worries have been worked out, like having a good job and stuff like that. I don't mean superficial in a bad way here, just more surface-level worries, rather than deeper worries like about your identity
>>477059 and while moot to say, human contact is bit of ingrained to us on basis level having that with your "work mates" is always beneficial minimal contact with humans doesn't exactly help along with issues
>>477059 Well there's a person below that surface now, so that helps It's hard to really explain, though
Beyond that surface, there didn't use to be a real person, it was just a fucking mess trying to arrange itself by how it should be judged based on the surface
as shitty as person I am, I have bundles of friends I can call to and connect daily if need be and I have good relationship with my family and extended family and "clan" helps you a lot to have that drink or dinner with friends occasionally or go sing out your stress with friends quite literally actually
Like "I'm unemployed and a social nobody, I must be a bad person, but I'm not that terrible I think" And that sort of contradiction isn't something I knew how to deal with because both were true I was a terrible person, based on these surface issues, but that wasn't who I was or am
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
I think the kind of self-image and pride I guess works best, needed to just shrug off thoughts like that as if they ment nothing, isn't either healthy for you self-worth is good, but too much of it and you become self-centred
Anno
>>477057 I think it's a sort of middle ground now at least coming out of summer it did stay hot for quite a while and it has been quite dry
One of my clients is so well developed that I'm kind of jealous He noticed that playing video games was getting in the way of his work so he decided that he'd play for an hour and even set an hour-long alarm, and then every hour, he'd stop and spend a few minutes figuring out if there's anything he needs to be working on. He's got such good discipline and is so driven. Why is my client more functional than me Isn't that kind of like cheating?
>>477071 That's a much healthier way of looking at it Did you do stuff for that with your therapist or did you just naturally come to think like that?
>>477074 I think the amount of self-discipline you can have depends on something more core to one self like a fundamental part of your being and even the areas you can apply it differ from person to person
Anno
>>477075 It's a good, pragmatic approach to something like that appearing on your phone, eh.
>>477074 That's what I used to think That contradiction isn't there anymore because there's a human being there now, not just this mess of 'stuff' trying to look like it's supposed to
I mean the contradiction still exists, but one of them isn't true because I'm not my unemployment and social isolation But I was before But I also never was, I just didn't know or think that way
>>477078 I meant realizing >I was a terrible person, based on these surface issues, but that wasn't who I was or am that it wasn't who you were or am, is a healthy way of looking at it
Resolving it is something I did on my own I guess I could have gone either way, but there's a lot that pushed me in one direction rather than the other I can see the timeline where I embraced the other side of that fight inside me and became whatever I was suppsoed to rather than myself, and I don't like that timeline It doesn't like me either
>>477083 Persona is about accepting a realistic portrayal of who you really are. You have to deny the stuff that isn't true and accept the stuff that is. A Persona is just a manifestation of the self, and you can't unlock your Persona unless you come to terms with who you are. That's why a character always changes when they get their Persona. It means they know who they are and that gives them a happier outlook and lets them be who they want to be.
>>477082 Things have definitely turned out better than they could have.
Maybe one day I'll look into going to a psych again, but I dunno if it'll be possible for me to fully be myself since even in private there's a part of me that refuses to stop being hyper aware of how I'm perceived I'm not able to detach people from their social relevance to me
well whatsoever is not like english actually has grammar
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
English as language taught in countries that speaks it as primary language does have grammar differs from coutnry to country but the english, language of internet doesn't
>>477143 Does any language have an "outright" insult or curse word? Like even in English, all insult words are words that originate outside of insult region but are adopted by people looking to have something to throw verbal venom at someone.
>>477154 no it ain't if it was, no goverment worker ever woudl do anything
Anno
but no govt worker works anyway
Anno
>>477152 Since its origin, or in contemporary time? My point was that words don't really originate as an insult, from what I see. But people adopt phrases or words because there's a fundamental need to have some way to call someone a fuckwit.

>>477148 I dunno does "shithead" sound like an insult? or calling someone a pussy or "children of shit" or "piss for brain" >>477161 it is a compound word finnish works with those 50% of time
Anno
Yeah but for persnickety-ness "shithead" isn't a word really. It's a fusion of two words. >>477160 Well then, for sake of comprehensiveness, treat your compound words and phrases as similar notions, because they are. The words themselves of the phrase or compound word are not inherently insulting, but when you put them together into a compound word or a phrase, the context is obviously offensive.
Japanese is the same way. There aren't "inherently" offensive words, but you can take those words and say them in the right tone or in the right phrase/compound word to make them offensive.
>>477151 Because I have an overwhelming amount of work to do and very little time to complete it all.

>>477164 You're not following me here. The words themselves are not offensive. But the phrase is obviously so.

>>477167 yes I realised your intent there but now you are more arguing semantics no word inherently means anything
but when that meaning has been ascrbied to it LONGER than it has existed as written language...
but to make my earlier point again give me an actual japanese insult that isn't something long like "son of a bitch" more of a "tosser" or "wanker" and so on
Anno
Language IS semantics. That's ALL there is to it.
Anno
>>477166 >Why are these high school boy flirting with each other when they could be flirting with me
You have insults and curses in japan but they are more of soemthing said in "insulting" tone you don't have similiar cuss or mean words as western languages generally do and that was my point from the start I didn't point it out clearly enough, so I guess my fault

I have 16 credit hours, which equates to like 40+ hours of school-related work per week, plus I have a real job where I treat clients, which is an additional 15 or so hours of work each week. Overall, my work weeks fluctuate between 50 and 70 hours per week. In addition to that, due to my ADHD and reliance on medication, I have about 8-10 hours a day where I can work on anything, and much of that time is spent in class or with clients. I also have research team meetings, work to do for my research team, supervisory meetings for my clinical work, and I have to work the front desk at the clinic for an hour each week.
I'm incredibly busy and it only gets worse at the end of the semester like right now, when there are a hundred big assignments to do that I can't even start until around this time.
>>477204 It's hard to imagine a student being busier than me. Take it easy!
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
sorry to butt in but Really? students, even here, are quite damn busy at times, especially towards the end of their degrees be it bachelor or master or licensiate or doctor
>>477214 Well, that can't really be helped! I'm working towards clinical proficiency here while simultaneously working on my Master's degree and Doctoral degree. When I'm out of school and working, my life will be a lot less stressful. After I get my Master's in August, I'll have only one or two classes every semester and the rest of my time will be spent working at mental health institutions, so my life will be a lot less stressful, since I'll mostly be working instead of working and school.
Anno
The people who I've heard of having the most stressful times always seem to be people in masters and doctorate programs. I'm suere there's more stressful and work-heavy places of employment out there than them, but they're the minority by a large margin.

places like nordics where you get some money, which is 100% spent on just living expenses anyhow, are rare as fug and anyhow by the time you are doing your masters, you are actually running out of student benefits
It's making my supers mean nothing and then I have to sit here longer
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
>>477228 is a big problem for the self-employed and small time company runners to actually know when and how to not work
Kirara 🚗
there are definitely some graduate programs that are incredibly chill like a master's in english for example if i were working on that, i wouldn't be very busy and would have nothing but free time
but i'm working on what's basically medical school

to what end is my cat just sitting on my lap cleaning herself?
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
>>477234 your rod needs like 1/5th of a targetted heal spell
And unfortunately, I'm incredibly and painfully busy My reliance on medication is a big factor in making me extra busy too 50-70 hours a week wouldn't be as much of a problem if I had more hours each day in which I could work
Samu 🛩 !KW2DbpWwls
wow this is an unexpected assault on my personhood
Well it is Snape so... >>477270 I noticed it after posting that block >>477267 here
Anno
Yeah that's probably hand-written. It's caliigraphic, so probably not something a teenage student would bother putting into a textbook. But hand-written.
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
but on screen it looked damn much like a font
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
all the letters align just damn too well
Ko-Shi
People write really really good man We just don't live in that kind of world anymore.
>>477286 Wouldn't be surprised if Malfoy tossed it between the end of the second and beginning of fourth book. It's kind of trashed and he didn't know about the Horucrux since Voldemort told NO ONE.
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
>>477291 might be and also he was tossed into azgaband or whatever between 5th and 6th movie but still
oh yeah DID he know about it being horcrux? so no
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
also was it in the 2nd book, that when harry misplaced himself in that "shady alley" that he saw Malfoy senior buying said book?= or something
Anno
Yeah, that was the first time the store with the Dark Arts contraband showed up.
but I only read the 3 first books by 4th I just went nah and never finished it it was boring as fuck
Anno
Firewatch development team Campo Santo has been acquired by Valve. Will continue their current game project.
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
Hmm curious what is their next project?
Anno
>>477307 Interesting. At the least I would hope Valve understands the value of not pressuring dev teams too strongly. Considering their entire workplace philosophy is "lol work on what you want".
so uh why did they choose to recruit ron to the quidditch team on their 6th year? and is that ginyn? or someone that looks like her you'd kinda think they'd have people who have grown into the roles and I guess by this time Potter is the most senior member of the team, if not by age, but atleast by years spent him having joined on his first year, which I bet is quite rare
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
also if ginny whatever has been on the team before, I dunno why skip that news from the movie watcher? I oft find the potter movies especially after Goblet, to presume the viewer has read the books
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
"oft" each time viewing which does make it, I guess oft, as that is when I deal with the media in question mainly so it makes it "whenever I deal with the media" which is oft but I don't do it oft, I do it maybe once every few years
>>477315 In their defense, from Goblet onwards the books get super thick. It gets crazy diffucult to properly collapse a long book into a single movie.
Kannagi
>>477317 It feels like that is gunna end up with people hanging out at particular points and people getting pissed off about like how easily people get pissed off about too many young people standing in parks
Nezi !Neziwi/5.M
>>477308 something that's not a game lol disappointed they stopped producing games, theirs are some of the best :\
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
>>477318 mind checking on the staff of the movies if you are bored atm
>>477319 yeah, it really would suck if people used public parks
Anno
>>477317 That's kind of an interesting feature. Beats getting a pizza delivered to your house before leaving for the park, or having to drive out from the party to pick up the 'za. I'd be worried about human vultures hanging about trying to con the delivery guy for a free pizza.
Nezi !Neziwi/5.M
>>477317 is this real? that's really cool actually. i mean it's not super useful for me since I live in the city and you're never more than a hundred feet from a address they could deliver to, but I'm sure in more rural areas it would be useful? pretty cool concept i suppose
Kannagi
>>477322 The eldery really don't like their park busy. Some old ladies in a park where I live were upset that too many people were in the park when usually it like empty The parks actually looked nice with picnics and everything. pokemon go pretty much died though
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
>>477318 >>477321 what I mean is that the 4 first movies have a really similiar feel to them especially the 3 first 4th does diverce a bit, but I blame that feeling more on the source material afterall the series "grew as their readers grew" which was I bet one of the best selling features of it
but I somehow just have the feeling, skipped the credits and havn't checked, that the directorial, production and writing staff of the movie team changed especially between 4th and 5th movie
I wonder how long that feature will last. Dominos is always introducing new features and then getting rid of them. They implemented an online tipping feature and got rid of it in a week because the feature made it so drivers made a lot less money.
Nezi !Neziwi/5.M
>>477323 unlikely as I'm sure they have to verify your identity before they just hand you the pizza, or if it's not required they might add that to prevent such a thing from happening >>477329 >hot dog stuffed crust wtf that sounds like some american bullshit
Kannagi
>>477327 No hot dog stuffed crust anymore in the UK, they removed that. although, I'd get fat if I got it too much.
>>477326 Directors have changed a bunch over the movies. One and two were the same director, then three, four, and five were -whoops, only three and four were unique directors. Five onto the final movie were all the same director.
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
how much would a hotdog cost in the US? >>477333 I bet buit I just feel a lot of the team changed between 4th and 5th movies or atleast between 3-5
I've been eating pizza once a week for the past month It's so unhealthy but there isn't any healthy take out here and I don't have time to go shopping anymore because I've been so busy and overwhelmed for the last month.
Nezi !Neziwi/5.M
>>477334 are we talking quality hotdogs or IKEA 75 cent hotdogs? usually a couple bucks or so I guess
Kannagi
Wow does tipping exist why not pay people decent wages? I don't get it at all.
>>477337 because then businesses can be cheap bastards and not pay their employees more than half of their wages, leaving it up to the customer to pay their salary, which sometimes they do and sometimes they just don't tip and you're fucked welcome to america :'( we do shit weird sometimes >>477342 we have a federal minimum wage, but each state has their own individual one. if you work a tip based job they have a separate minimum for that. i used to make about half of minimum wage plus tips, but we got a lot of tips so I'd average $12/hr or so but that's not typical with every tip-based job, sometimes you don't make shit
Kirara 🚗
>>477337 because workers don't have rights in the US
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
>>477333 so 5-> is one director hmm I wonder how much of the team too changed then but yeah YOU CAN see this 5 onwards the feel changes real much and more than just that "source material changes"
Kannagi
Does the US have a minimum wage? or is that minimum wage unreasonably low?
Kirara 🚗
>>477342 yeah, but service professionals have a minimum wage of around $2/hr because they get tips
>>477342 Oh yeah, we have a minimum wage, we have more than that though, we have so many minimum wages man. We are MADE of minimum wages
Anno
>>477341 Even between Chamber and Azkaban there's an exceedingly obvious style change. The first director wanted sort of a fairytale image almost. The second director moved away from that to a darker fantasy. And that kind of set the stage for the rest of the directors to come.
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
>>477337 >>477340 mats please It was a good idea at a time "let servers be rewarded by the people they are serving" both servers can earn more than their employer could pay them and the employer can save on hirign expenses all good on the paper
but ofc it doesn't ever work like that
Kannagi
>because they get tips. what. that sucks. >>477346 but it depends on a number factors instead of how many hours you work. If I work a number of contracted hours in the UK I expect to be paid for those hours the wage I was told.
Maria
>>477346 But the people can just Not tip There is literally nothing stopping you from just giving shit tips A workers wage shouldn't be dependent on how charitable someone is feeling. Tipping is also super inconsistent It's shit on paper and in practice
Last New Years Eve, when we were in a hotel, during the Arkansas roadtrip, I ordered a pizza, and the guy delivering it was like 16 years old, probably. I gave him a $10 tip and he got so excited that he practically skipped away. It was really cute.
Nezi !Neziwi/5.M
>>477343 >service professionals more like professional bitchboy toys
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
>>477345 The guy doing 5-> biggest fault is he does adaptions not movies I don't know if he himself was aware of it or whatever, but it just feels that every movie he did, presumed that the viewer had read the books
Anno
>>477351 Even then, he takes a certain lot of liberty with the movies. Like in the sixth movie, there's a scene where the Death Eaters firebomb to Weasley house. Never happened in the book. The scene where they're trashing some bridge in London? Not in the book. He throws in these scenes but doesn't include other parts of the book that might have clarified some of the actions of the characters to a somewhat better degree.
Kannagi
>>477349 Wow you idol you. Making those hearts skip!~
Nezi !Neziwi/5.M
I once had a guy give me $20 when I helped him at our location, turns out he was at the wrong location, so I helped him leave again, gave me another $20? that's some spending money if you can tip like that, off OOF >>477356 see that's the best of both worlds, which is how it should be you get paid a decent amount and if they want to tip on top then the option is there
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
>>477352 the whole half-blooded prince storyline I hear atleast, was butchered like fuck
I always tip really high as a show of solidarity with the workers that get fucked over so badly like service workers. I usually tip 30-50% if I can. Obviously, I can't afford to do that at some restaurants, but I try to tip high whenever possible. For pizza delivery, I always tip $5.
I don't mind adaptions differing from the source but especially in a series like this the information should be constant when you have movies following movies, you need to consider that some only take their information from the movies and not the books You can't have information on any movie of the series, that requires you to acquire information from outside of the movie series if that happens, you have failed But then again, something like the pottermovies had never been tried before
Nezi !Neziwi/5.M
>>477357 newfound respect for you <333333333 every christmas if I have to do something service related (or near christmas at least) i find one situation to tip really high cause i know what it's like working a shitty tip based job alone on christmas and those big tips make you happy for a while i still remember the faces of people that tipped me really high, glorious bastards
So if I ever travel to the US and eat at a diner and get a say 30 dollaroo bill I will have to spend say 10 dollaroos EXTRA to make it sure the person serving me gets their due
Anno
>>477363 Standard tipping is around 15% of the bill I think? I'm sure no employee would bemoan you giving them a higher tip though.

why would SNAPE of all people leave his book behind in a classroom? does he seem the type? He seems more like the type to go check the empty classroom after backing his boock and checking his back to see if he forgot his books not like th type to forget his chemistry book in the class for a future teacher to collect it
Oh, speaking of dates with PAN, instead of taking his vacation during my first week off, he'll be taking it on the second one. He may be joining the philly crew. >>477426 Shrugged it off like it ain't no thang I told him his door was unlocked when he came back and he was like "Yeah, so?"

is he streaming or something
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
>>477486 is simply the amount of times I have seen "X is playing" messages from steam concerning "ton plays skyrim"
Kirara 🚗
oh, that makes sense haha

I know I am self centred as fuck and sometimes drive away topics to myself like fuck but just what >>477490 is this?
Nezi !Neziwi/5.M
>>477492 it was a follow up to the topic from last night due to new information but i apologize for changing the topic
Anno
>>477489 To an extent. With some mods your only real option is "cross fingers and hope nothing breaks for a decent period of time". That or just remove the offending mods, but that's often not very appealing.
Some complications can be removed by running your mod arrangement through programs like LOOT and cleaners. But a lot of mods have imperfect coding that is ripe for memory leaks. And no amount of cleaning will wrap those up.
>>477496 I am not being a dick I am being fucking realist here if you just fucking toss a thing like that here no matter whati t be people will be interested on what it is based on
I just gave you an extremely hostile version, not unlike this site atleast when I came here, of what could happen
so If you want to post that kind of info dumbs be prepared for something like this at the very least
So my tips to you nezi-chan are either steer away from that shit or pay attention more to what you post
i only completed about 80% of the work i needed to complete today i let myself sleep in and it cost me a large portion of my productive hours i have a little room for error and can move part of what i was going to do today to monday but i can't afford any further reductions in my productivity
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
>>477511 Fucking your brain needs sleep to be productive no matter what you push yourself and lie to yourself about it the rbain just bloody needs at the very least 3-4 hours a night a MUCH MUCH more in most cases
people with adhd function better at the beginning of their circadian rhythm i stayed up too late and slept in late, so i woke up later than usual, several hours after my cycle begins so i lost those hours of productivity if i had been more responsible and gone to bed when i planned to last night and woke up at my normal time, i would have gained an extra four hours of productivity which would have allowed me to complete all the work i had scheduled for today
because when i'm overwhelmed and need a break, i take a break, even if it's completely self-destructive to take a break i decided to let myself relax a little last night self-care is self-destructive in graduate school and i'm too interested in preserving what little self care i can get to function at the level i need to i've been working nonstop for like four weeks now

TN !PcAPtAiNJo

>>477521 i can take a break on friday, maybe then sunday and monday i have to study for finals and monday i have to study for another final err, on tuesday i have to study for another final also on tuesday i have to go and work on the hurricane decision making paper wednesday too probably thursday too i don't know when i'll find time to pack for my trip the most relaxation i'm going to get is when i'm on that flight to utah
it's going to be hard for me after next friday because fish won't be here anymore and she's the only thing keeping me reasonably functional hopefully i'll survive my exams without her arround
TN !PcAPtAiNJo

TN !PcAPtAiNJo
>>477526 "have fun on the trip" 8 lines later and you still didn't say that you would

it is honest I give you that my dear
but it ignores a bloody lot of things
Kirara 🚗
right now i'm just trying to survive long enough to get to my trip
if even the trip causes you to do that much of work related shit what will the trip irselt the post trip and so on?
Kirara 🚗
the trip isn't making me do any work related stuff i just have to pack and it's going to be difficult to find the time to pack
i just have to work pretty much every single day until the second i leave on my trip
Kannagi
i don't think that was what Kirara was saying. >>477535 It sucks, but once you get on the trip I think you be able to properly unwind unless you end up on some mad misadventure. and enter a life of crime across america. KAITOU KIRARA has come to take your jewels
