I wasn't expecting the horse to be there when I first saw you typing "a naked man". Was the horse moving quickly?

I'm not sure if it was running quickly, but it was moving a lot faster than a person can run.

Some of the peanuts in this jar are nearly an inch in length. I can't recall even seeing peanuts that long before, let alone the three or four I've had in this jar. Taste fine though, so eh.
Kirara 🚗
It's a strange world out there. Full of naked people on horses.
>>522454 Really? Long peanuts are really common here, especially at baseball games and stuff.
Anno
Probably less full of naked people on horses than there were in the past though.
>>522455 I'd say they usually don't get longer than 1.5cm or so in the jars and tins of peanuts you can get at stores here. Though I don't really eat a particularly lot of peanuts, so maybe my sample bias is kind of small.

an american energy company and one of the biggest accounting agencies in the world, called enron, had some pretty big scandals a while back and got btfo and died

sk
I mean I generally just don't care that much whether a company is following the law or not, in terms of my stance on capitalism It's not very important
FormerRei@mobile

TN !PcAPtAiNJo
Also each country has their own shit story about some over greedy company or disaster case of a company anyhow so if they have some story about corporative ludacricy, they most likely quote their local equilevant and remember that than some us case from years back
Kirara 🚗
enron's corruption was literally something that had effects in nearly every western country
FormerRei@mobile
Enron was pretty big Like hundreds of billions of dollars
FormerRei@mobile
And their corruption even affected politics because they fucked over California by charging too much for electricity and selling power out of state Which lead to the California energy crisis
One of the largest accpunting firms in the world went out if business as a result of it. Enron's corruption consists of basically everything you would use as examples to explain why businesses are bad.

>>522643 it's totally different every time maybe it's the same on some superficial level because the plot is the same but it's a detective kind of game there are more things to inquire about than any one person will ever explore, and seeing everyone enthused by different things is the greatest part there's also a totally irrelevant wardrobe system and it's neat to see how much attention people pay to how they look, and it does inherently have an affect on the plot in some regards
rook totally rushed it, but it was still fun i feel like D4 is one of the games where i can tell a lot about a person by how they play it

At least she seems aware that it was a mistake.
Kirara 🚗
It's funny that people entering their third year of a doctoral program can still be the kind of person that would copy and paste. This is for something for our dissertation prep class, too, haha.
Anno
Maybe I'm just particular about my writing, but even if I was literally copy-pasting content I'd probably still be writing/typing it out myself. Even when I'm quoting I'll usually just write it out instead of copying it, unless it's like, three lines of content.
Not to mention, as a good rule of thumb, if it feels like something -might- be plagarism, it's usually safe to assume it is going to be considered plagarism.
Kirara 🚗
I could never stand it if I used someone else's words. My way of writing academically is somewhat unique so if there's part I didn't write, it breaks up the flow of everything. It'd drive me mad.
Anno
Never mind that also from an educational standpoint, just parroting what someone else has written or said flies in the face of what a student is supposed to learn in an academic environment like that.
Kirara 🚗
Well, to be fair, having to do a dissertation is just an archaic part of the system that hasn't been eliminated yet. We're a clinical program, working on our doctorates in psychology, not philosophy, so having to do a study is something that a lot of my colleagues aren't keen on. They just want to see clients and provide therapy.
I'm okay with it because I've been involved in research for like 6 years now, though.

giving /mor/ wow i'm so blind i need glasses
giving /moe/ fair warning abou tracked location surveys i'd advise against answering or participating in questionable surveys

Kirara 🚗
>>522660 questionable surveys like my dissertation survey?!
>>522661 we have technical qualifications we have to pass we have to prove we can provide therapy, then we have to prove we have a good knowledge pool for psychology, then we have to prove we can provide therapy two more times before we can get licensed plus our dissertation
i'm fine with doing a dissertation and want to do it though it's an opportunity for me to utilize the resources of someone more experienced than me for whatever i want
月
>>522662 no, just things which don't need to be a third party survey but are, specifically in our messageboard realm e.g. someon could just tag my name or anyone elses with some ranomd strawpoll-like survey and ask a question and respondent's location are tracked

Night shifts wouldn't be a problem for me if I didn't have things I really want to do during the time they'd be running. I wouldn't be able to watch anime with /moe/ if I worked regular night shifts.

Although I actually do live in a super politically corrupt county. But the politicians here aren't corrupt and inept. They actually get things done. They couod certainly do better. But all the non corrupt people who run just don't have the experience. Chicago's the third biggest city in the US. You need more than a pure heart to keep it running. As much as I hate the corruptness the current mayor gets a lot of things done. Except in education. The pubpic schools in the city are a huge mess. *public
FormerRei@mobile
Although as usual a lot of this goes back to the previous administration.
FormerRei@mobile
Well, it's more than just the schools. Although part of a really big problem with them is a statewide thing that goes back a bit. The tl;dr is that people borrowed against pensions of the teachers union or something like that and never paid it back. So starting any day now people retiring won't have their pensions.

Guess he has enough support to keep going amusingly read that if the current social and health reform goes through, this province gets fucked up to 8 million € a year in income and loses control of their own functions, them being relocated to a higher level, combining several provinces to work under a shared social and health system
I don't understand fully how people get these pictures, but they're fantastic

im gonna ask you a question /moe/ there's a reason behind it and i'll follow up but i just want to ask the question first
why do children cry when they hurt themselves
ToN
it hurts, probably it’s an instinctual cry for help
月
okay, so we have "to get help", or to bring attention to the situation, et cetera any others?
sk
isn't it like, a stress relief function?
月
and we have "to relieve stress" both are obviously true in some sense the child cries because something has happened, and crying signals the mother (or whoever) to help both valid statements
this question was asked on /sci/ http://boards.4chan.org/sci/thread/9820538
everyone just said "to get help from its mom" et cetera, along with some insults about the obviousness of it my response is probably obvious about how unexpected situations in an underdeveloped brain can cause stimulation and evoke a physiological response
i thought it was p obvious that that's what the OP was asking about and wondered why i was alone in answering it i don't know how hard i'm projecting though
just an internal point of contention i was trying to get some illumination on
Anno
Well vocal crying out is a pretty consistent reaction to pain across many animal species. Producing tears at pain, at least mild pain like a child would even cry at, is a little less common? It might also be that they haven't developed a personal evaluation of pain yet, so everything that hurts them hurts REAL bad. Crying tears is also a reaction to being emotional pain too, like being scared or put in an uncomfortable situation, which is an important analogue I think isn't really touched upon in the original question.
月
I think in all cases it's an overstimulation thing but that aside, it's just a preparatory question
my real question, or prompt i guess, is the observation of the trend of responses Why does a child cry when hurt? 1. To get attention/assistance, so social signalling 2. Innate response to stress/overstimulation physiologically
two totally different whys here one being what a child gains from crying one being what causes a child to cry
i'm ruminating on that a bit so i'll leave it open ended for commentary, if anyone has any and if not, it's not really a significant thing anyway
月
note my interest is in the linguistics and dynamics of Q/A and not really in the child crying children cry it's what they were invented to do
月
i think cause and effect are relative to the systems at play physiologically, the children cry because they're presented with an unexpected situation which their brain can't internally resolve the immediate action potential overflow from the incoming nervous signals from the pain receptors, and also from their brain organizing things in a way with an expectation that was not met such that they now have previously unresolved action potential + new incoming signals driving the action potential up so the brain outsources to the nervous system, the nerves are overexcited and look for ways of externalizing it, one of which is crying (also laughter, shouting, or in serious cases, seizures)
evolutionarily it's just good for the lineage to signal to elders that something is wrong so that you can get assistance from informatic superiority and individually it's done just because it's learned that crying equals help and attention, things which the brain is very fond of
i guess my gripe is in the usefulness of language to present these conditionals intuitively a fairly simple question has a broad range of applicable systems in play
the amount of elucidation necessary to pinpoint context is overbearing to the point that it's no longer a social exchange but an academic one i dont really think that needs to be the case i feel like there's a much more streamlined channel of communication that could occur here
Anno
exactly according to keikaku

>>522925 have you ever seen those hunting games i always wanted something like that with online pvp where some players are the bear/elk/etc
Anno
I've seen snippets. There's similar games, like that one that has players take turns being a shark against some swimmers. And more fantasy games like that one from a few years back about being a team of monster hunters going up against a player as an OP monster.
A bear might be a fair chance but I think an elk would always be a little unfair for the person playing the elk.

google is so bad im trying to find out information about the luminosity of different phone leds and it's only giving me ads for phones and reviews of phone screens that don't have that information
i hate that it's literally impossible to search for, for instance, Steven King no matter what you do it'll think you mean stephen king if you put it in quotations and put -stephen, you'll just get forum posts from people that are still referring to stephen king as steven king
sk
>>522931 >only humans can produce emotional tears I... is that so?

we and my peeps might march on one of the local concentration camps weve got 5 of them in florida
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
don't do anything stupid
sk
I'm not sure how effective you'll be, but god bless
Kirara 🚗
well ICE offices around the country are being closed temporarily because of protests and cops are begging protestors to let ICE agents go home to their families which is hilarious and not going to happen
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
Haa really i feel like bashing some ea/bioware guys in the head with a mallet
sk
>>522977 I've seen reports of it just ending with the cops showing up and beating the christ out of people though
Kirara 🚗
i haven't seen a single report of that
sk
Not that I think that's a reason not to do it >>522980 Maybe I've mixed something up I was sure I saw that scroll by on my timeline while I was at work
Kirara 🚗
we have 18 ICE agents that got doxxed in our area
sk
I'm still in disbelief at how quick this all is It wasn't good under Obama either, I'm aware of that, but the hostility has certainly been ramped up
Kirara 🚗
that's how fascists do it when they want to rush three steps forward, one step back to appease the blind idiots, then right back onto business
sk
It's just incredible I was sure this would all be a lot slower
sk
Are there enough of you to effectively besiege the facilities, though?
Kirara 🚗
if we coordinate properly, we can get 50+ to start after that lots of unrelated people will probably join in, including libs
sk
Oh yeah, libs are fine with joining in I guess Well I hope you'll be able to affect the situation to some degree, but be safe
Kirara 🚗
maybe we'll have to see if trumps decision to put families in concentration camps together instead of separately is enough to appease them
sk
I don't know US law well enough to verify it, but >>>/@ElSandifer/1009490732279877632 This person claims it's a play to begin with And honestly, wouldn't be surprised because it fits
sk
if it passes though, the liberals will likely calm down
Kirara 🚗
if it passes it's an executive order so it automatically passes when he signs it, it's law people will have to sue if they want to get rid of it but yes, having it eventually struck down is probably trump's goal
sk
Oh I see Then I guess the play won't work out for him, since who the hell would sue over this
Kirara 🚗
people who want the kids separated
sk
I thought even executive orders went through the supreme court like, automatically, if a bit delayed
Kirara 🚗
no, you can think of them as the president writing law
sk
>>522994 Those are the same people who kinda like Trump and don't want to go against him though
Kirara 🚗
but they would if he asked them to
sk
That's entirely true Though, political suicide considering their own base would reject them
Kirara 🚗
you realize that basically anyone effected by it in any conceivable way can sue right
sk
Yeah I don't see that happening, though Like who'd sue over this and revert the situation to separating the families?
Executive orders have their value, in tht you can quickly rush in sayr elief bills if a hurricane hits or say war happens actual war not the "not war" usa has been waging since 2001
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
>>523008 The pandora's box whenever someone abuses an existing feature, everyone will justifying "well my predecessor did and you were fine with it"
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
And I don't blame the presidents for that it is so convenient tool of power that who wouldn't use it when in that position
Kirara 🚗
>>523012 president doesn't need executive orders for anything pertaining to war or disaster relief he can just issue normal orders
sk
yeah the president's only legal restriction as far as war goes is he can't declare war, isn't it?
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
so why does it even exist? Really US president is a monarch elected every 6-12 years
sk
Because the state isn't built up for you, it's built for those in power

TN !PcAPtAiNJo
also the state isn't built for those in power it is built by spiders

TN !PcAPtAiNJo
and for
sk
>>523021 Really? I thought that was still the case, but just sidestepped by not explicitly declaring war, rather uh, 'intervening in a destabilized region' or some such
sk
Yknow move the troops, but don't declare war
Kirara 🚗
they still do that they can just declare war now iif they want to by why would you if you don't have to?
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
>>523021 just thinking when was it given to the president cause I doubt the mind set back in 18th century was giving a singular leader that much authority, considering they revolted against a monarchy
Kirara 🚗
>>523026 presidents just started using them for things they weren't supposed to and nobody stopped them, so they have just kept on doing it

>>523098 It's happened to people before. People having to have their stomach pumped due to large amounts of semen, that is.

how much semen is that like how much did they ingest to the point they needed a pump
Kirara 🚗
I dunno.
Yuu
That's both gay and slutty.
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
wouldn't it get digested by the acids anyhow?
Kirara 🚗
Well, semen is a liquid, so it's not digested.
Maria
>>523105 how do you know it's not a woman who got her stomach pumped
I don't want to think about it any further not really something I want saved on my harddisk, "how semen reacts in human digestion tracts"
ToN
remember when a demon literally ate a dick and balls in fromt of you
Anno
I would've describe you as a demon, but I do remember
Kirara 🚗
Liquids are broken down by saliva and enzymes from the pancreas and then absorbed into the bloodstream or turned into waste.
Thinking about it logically, there's no reason someone should have to have their stomach pumped. Semen isn't /// has a ph similar to water.
I would have to assume that the cases where people had their stomach pumped for semen, they were also getting it pumped for alcohol or other substances.
Anno
now I want to dip some pH paper into my cum I'll take your word for it now, but soon I'll know for sure
Yuu
>>523108 Because you're all talking about being gay and using male pronouns.

nobody was talking about being gay until you just brought it up smh

isn't homosexuality not only illegal but also immoral?

Non-paraffin candles are so expensive.
>>523122 I have been primarily using candles for light in my house for like a month now. Lazarus is surprisingly good at not knocking them over.
Anno
that's clever now going to bed late will be quite expensive over time
Kirara 🚗
I mostly go to bed when it gets dark, anyway. I have an oil lamp, too, but I don't use it as often as I do candles.
Anno
going back to the basics eh are you shitting in the woods too?
Kirara 🚗
If it were an option, I would. I can't stand artificial lights anymore. So I just avoid them whenever I can. The only artificial light in my house is like, LEDs on my modem, my laptop screen which is pretty low brightness and color temperature, and my phone, which is also low brightness and color temperature.
Anno
reminds me of when I was in the Sinai and I was expecting it to be dark as fuck it was actually quite light from all the surrounding cities in the distance
Kirara 🚗
i would like to be as far from artificial light as possible when i was camping in the forest in the middle of nowhere in utah there wasn't any light pollution it was so dark at night, the only way we could see was with our fire or flashlights i wish it was always like that
Anno
yeah forests are like the only place in today's world, ignoring things like caves never really did camping in such dense forests, the times I've done it, it was still pretty light
>>523131 not the Sinai sadly, at least the part I was in I don't remember how the Namibia deserts were at night, don't think I was outside during the night

it's illegal so if i do it, i have to be ready to escape my home at any time and constantly having to abandon the home i built and all of the stuff i've built like my gardens and stuff probably isn't a better way of life than i have to have now
Anno
the world sure changed the past few hundred years eh?

yeah there used to be land that was free but now it's all been stolen by the rich

maybe we'll eat the rich in our lifetime wouldn't bet any money on it though

Fighting games are pretty popular. I suck at em
Anno
>>523171 Yeah, their games have been pretty solid. Bit too technical for me but I can appreciate the quality of work.
Studio Trigger had announced some collaboration work with ASW a few days back, and I think most people figured it was gonna be an anime adaptation of one of their games. Don't think most people had their money on it being the other way around.
>>523172 I can enjoy just about any fighting game because I suck at them and don't really understand what makes a good fighting game

blazblue already had an anime i dont think many people watched it

Blazblue anime had some cute parts to it. >>523174 I suck pretty bad at some combos but they are fun especially story ones. like Melty, Touhou, Blazblue, etc
Anno
>>523175 It was a pretty lousy adaptation, I think. But maybe a Trigger adaptation of one of their more recent games could have been fun. And there's still Guilty Gear, though I have zero idea what that game's story is about and if it even translates into a cohesive plot.

On minimum wage I'd get a bit over 1000 a month and yet I gotta live off 5000 for a whole year. I don't even know if it'll be as high 5000.

As far as I can tell my professor didn't actually give me the grade for my final paper anywhere on the actual returned paper. On top of that he hasn't been uploading our marks to the online service the school uses, so aside from the 20/25% of my final grade that I've gotten returns on, I have no clue how much of the remaining 75% I actually have until the final grade comes in. It's not a big deal since I have confidence I'll pass, but it's annoying on a fundamental level.
