This expo for working/studying/volunteering internationally has been pretty neat. I picked up a bunch of flyers and information on English teaching abroad (JET even had a booth set up) and I got some good advice from one of the organization that set up the expo on potential routes to establish oneself as a potential international journalism correspondent/freelancer.
One of them is a kind of famous YouTuber. For a furry anyways.
Kirara š
how weird
FormerRei@mobile
Anyways I suggest not looking much further into it. I was reading the kiwifarms thread on it and its really really graphic. And I didn't even see any pictures, just descriptions of them and descriptions of videos. I'm gonna go read manga about cute girls doing cute things.
>>576955 I'm getting by! I accidentally gave Fish that phone number she wanted. So I'm stressing out a little about that.
How are you?
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
why would giving her a number be bad?
Yuu
>>576958 Oh no, how'd you accidentally do soemthing like that?
Kirara š
>>576960 So, when I crop a screenshot, it saves the cropped image as an image separately from the original. Well, I sent her the wrong screenshot, so it was uncropped and still had the phone number in it. Teehee. I don't know if she noticed or not. She didn't say anything about it.
>>576959 Because she wants to take down pee-chan who she believes is infringing on her territory (me).
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
Well yeah as amusing as that could be, that is kinda bad
Yuu
>>576961 Well, I hope she doesn't notice for everyone's sake.

>>576963 If you happen to learn anything, I'd appreciate a warning.

Is it weird to text people you've only seen once in years a couple months back and have barely kept in touch with since.
What kind of things are even good to say Why is communication so hard.
Kirara š
no
"hello, how have you been?"
Anno
The friends I met up with from high school months back were a lot of fun to talk with, but despite saying we'd try and get together more over the summer, well, you can probably guess the rest. Which was pretty much what my expectations were but that doesn't really make it satisfying.
I'd like to, for lack of a less mechanical term, resume communication and maybe even talk about getting together again, but that sort of social initiative is something I've long since let other people handle and is kind of something foreign to me. I don't even know what to ask. To just hang out? Where? Is it fine to talk about getting together without a particular thought in mind? This sort of social nuance isn't really present in online social forums so I 'm definitely out of my water on it.
BetaTN !PcAPtAiNJo
wait a sec with purchase of Fox, does disney own alien franchise now too?

Hmm no store even carries AVP2 in a digital format lol
>>576982 My go-to is usually seeing a movie After the movie, you grab a bite to eat and shoot the shit And then just let the plans for the next encounter develop naturally while everyone is present to discuss it
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
I wonder did it have a cd-key I guess a crack is easily foundable
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
the alien and predator gameplay was SO fun with predator, you were unstoppable killing machine that rarely required any brain aside "invis, shoot" to deal with enemies but alien man you were squishy you had to find alternate routes cut power distract sneak that was so fun
oh well guess I will play the more recent avp now
Anno
>>576988 Hm, I see. Going out for movies hasn't ever been regular thing for me, so I'd never have thought about it. Even these days a lot of the people I've been interacting with in a cordial environment has pretty much jus been sitting and talking or walking around and talking.
Kirara š
>>576991 Movie is really good for stuff like that. First, you don't really talk during the movie, so it's free from awkward "what do we talk about" shit. You can talk during the previews about the previews, that's easy. After the movie, in the worst case where there's nothing to talk about over food, the movie is an easy conversation topic that can open the conversation and lead into nearly any topic. Movie is also pretty neutral, too. Everyone from co-workers to lovers go see movies together, so it's free from the worry about whether or not it's an acceptable activity to invite someone to. And since you're together after the movie, the next outing becomes a more collaborative decision where you figure out a good thing to do next together, which saves the anxiety of finding a reason to hang out again.
Kirara š
of course with people you know better, you can just go straight to hiking and shit or fishing or whatever rock climbing gym
Anno
They're all girls, so I don't know how receptive they might be to going rock climbing with me, hah hah. One of them is also extremely unfit and has health issues that would make semi-intense physical activity leave her out.
Movie's a good start though at least, yeah. I guess I'd have to ask if there's movies they're interested in or stuff like that. I don't really know movies, hah hah.
>>576994 Crazy Rich Asians is the big film in theaters right now, it's getting a ton of positive press, so it might be a good place to start. It's a comedy, which is great for this kind of thing. There's also Night School with Kevin Hart which might work well, if y'all are high school friends, because it's a comedy about some people working on their GEDs.
Venom is now in theaters, but that kind of movie is more hit-or-miss for something like this.
Oh, there's also The Meg which is a parody of b-movies. It's supposed to be really funny.
>>576997 or some brainless action movie if there is any one running
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
this is quite solid, though how it is clearly console+pc does make the control scheme kinda simplified but it does work and for a 2010 game it has good graphics but I do fucking want to play the original one well original sequel
That Koi Needs Therapy
I should have taken a better nao nap
Anno
Blue you might have answers for this. What do hip city kids do for easy pick-up social activities.
Anno
>>576997 Yeah, Crazy Rich Asians might work. I've seen trailers for Night School and I dunno if it would be entirely up my alley, but who knows. They're all pretty nerd culture oriented too, so even stuff like MCU movies might be good, but that's just my guess.
I was flipping through now playing movies and I even saw Sorry To Bother You playing at a single theatre here. That might be fun but also maybe not the best thing to throw at people without knowing what they like.
Kirara š
Sorry to Bother You is an amazing movie, but it's incredibly political, so I don't recommend that for a casual thing with people you don't know that well.
I think the only MCU movie right now is Antman. There's also the Predator, which they might dig if they like pop culture nerd shit.
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
>grab unarmed guy >hold them on ground >from nowhere facehugger appears and why do you do this FOR SCORE ... no wonder this game didn't sell that well
Anno
Yeah I wasn't seriously considering Sorry To Bother You, hah hah. My guess is they'd be receptive to the concepts of the movie but maybe not enjoy it as a movie experience.
When I in high school they were friends I'd made through the anime club so that and games were kind of the culture spheres we had back then. I know they don't really follow much of anime anymore though. We talked a bit about the MCU when we met up months back but I don't recall how invested they were in the stuff. Which is at least an indication of them neither hating nor passionately following it at least, hah hah.
Maria
>>577005 There's been uh, some pretty poor word of mouth for The Predator >>577009 I heard that it literally revolves around autism being a superpower
>>577010 Yeah apparently the predators want to take spinal fluid from an autistic boy because it gives them superpowers I'm not even joking or using the term autism in a meme way, I think that's the movies actual plot
>>577007 If you have AMC theatres, My Neighbor Totoro is playing September 30 and October 1 and 3. Spirited Away October 28-30, I think.
Anno
I'm pretty confident AMC's limited to the States, unfortunately. I'll look out for similar offers at local theatres though, but at the same time, I'm pretty sure they've seen pretty much Every. Single. Ghibli movies, hah hah. But hey, might be up for a re-watch.
Kirara š
Well, you're smart, so I think you'll figure something out.
FormerRei@mobile
>>577014 AMC has theaters in Canada and Europe and South America.
FormerRei@mobile
It's the largest theater chain in the world.
Anno
>>577015 I might be smart but social situations still confound me! Thanks for talking about it with me though, I appreciate it.
So my loans have finally come out of Income Driven Repayment and have gone back to displaying the usual minimums. I've been paying more than the minimum for the past 4 months so it's nothing to me. But the thing I just noticed on it is that they didn't just "leave it" at the amount I decided to pay. They took my current monthly payment, and then ADDED the minimum to that amount for both loans. So instead of 300, they almost took 500+ from me
Anno
Ideally this means the loans were being paid off faster though, right? I'm not really sure I grasp this mechanic. I'm also not all too driven to understand it either so if you don't really want to entail that's fine.
>>577028 It's just bad web design. Put it this way. With IDR, my monthly minimum was $0 because I had no income when I filed for IDR. I didn't file for it this year because I don't need the relief from it so it goes back up to normal. Because my bills are set to AutoPay, what they PROBABLY DID was take my current payment value and add the new payment value to it. If you're not manually inserting numbers yourself, everything's fine. But since I wanted to start paying off interest before IDR fell off, I set it to pay $300 a month a few months ago. And now, they added the minimums on TOP of that rather than just checking to see if I was already making the minimums on my payments. So yes, my loans would get paid faster. But I would also have less of my money. Which, in the case of many people who aren't me, would be absolutely terrible.
FormerRei@mobileAnno
>>577030 Yeah, I can imagine. It's really funny, in the way that it's not funny but horrific, that bad design like that could potentially devastate a number of people.
I'm always anxious about setting payments and bills to be paid automatically. Sure most of the time it's never a big deal. But it's the danger stories like these that always make me figure "yeah I'm good doing things myself".
That Koi Needs Therapy
It was a complete coincidence that I even bothered to check it because my mom asked me how much I was paying and I said I was doing like $50 more than the minimum. and then I checked to see the actual number and it's like "Looks like you're all set to pay us $540 next month!" and I'm like uh hold up Because I very clearly remembered my monthly total being less than 300 and it would make no sense for it to essentially double in a single year, especially if a third of that year was actually me making payments

A new show with designs and creaitve input from Yoshitoshi ABe that's airing this upcoming season released four of its episodes today. I've really liked his work in the past, and since Despera is probably dead in the water I'm eager for new content.

Yeah that would make a fun experience I bet. It's designed to be a single session game so you could even play hot potato with the GM position.
Jokes aside, I do hope everything is alright with Rika.
Anno
Well she seems to be enjoying these Saturdays she spends out, so that's what matters. It just came at a weird time since a lot of the Saturday shows are stuff she really likes. But we're kind of entrenched in watching them on Saturday. Yesterday was a change of things though. But I'd also passed the fuck out from exhaustion at around 22:00 and didn't wake up until well after anime would have started. So nothing got watched yesterday either.
Kirara š
Well, you know me. I worry a lot about the people I love.
When the routines break, I worry!
rene
tfw brian problems
Anno
Go fuck yourself brian.
Anno
>>577105 It's certainly hard to not worry, but at the same time, I'm aware that there isn't likely going to be any closure to my worry. When people prefer to keep things private I respect that. But at the same time that means I need to try and emotionally disentangle myself a bit because without closure it becomes a thought spiral that I get trapped in and it severely begins to impact my ability to function day-to-day. I don't hold it against anyone but it's just a cause and effect.
Kirara š
I'm recently inclined to refer to myself as a worrier. I wonder if I picked that up from Fish. She says that a lotm I've been trying to avoid letting it creep into my lexicon.
Rika is smart and responsible and reliable, though. She's probably the only person on /moe/ who wouldn't do something worth worrying about.
I can't help but worry about people important to me, though, haha.
Anno
I know for a fact that I'm a worrier. I am a worrying elemental. By this point I just learn to live alongside it and try to not let it take over my brain.
It's like riding with you behind the wheel. There is an inevitability that it's going to make me worry but that doesn't restrict me from enjoying it. School is an environment that provides me with a lot of anxieties but it's also an environment that pushes me to actually try. Balancing my worries with the positives has helped me deal with it I've found, at least.
Kirara š
It's nice to see you and Kannagi confronting your anxieties a bit. I'm really proud of y'all.
Anno
One of the guys I talked to at the expo today for working/studying abroad had some really solid advice for breaking into international journalism. He mentioned a lot of the people he'd known that got picked up for magazines and publications were volunteer workers that were already on the ground in those parts of the world and shopped pieces they wanted to do to get in as a freelance submissions. It was pretty valuable advice and certainly more personally applicable than what I expected to get from the event.
Anno
>>577096 Are you still around though? The Squid's a-callin', we can watch some stuff tonight.
Anno
I also talked with a representative from the JET program as well as a couple other organizations for teaching English in parts of Asia, like Thailand or China.
One of them even had a program for going abroad to China during the summer for an expenses paid placement for English teaching. And an option available for that program allows me to get a certificate for teaching English as a second language so that for more permanent positions liek -like the one JET providesm -provides, I wouldn't have to wait until I had a certificate, or pay for it, since the Chinese program incorporates it into the expenses. It's a really persuasive opportunity, but it's also the one that gave me the most red flags of the various organizations that were represented there, so I kind of want to do some research before I consider if I can do it.
Anno
>>577113 yeah gimme a couple mins i'll watch whatever
Anno
>>577115 Okey dokes, I'll make a thread. Filter in when you're ready, no rush.

I'm not really sold on that narration. That kind of language works for dialogue between characters and stuff like that, but it always ends up feeling kind of campy as narration. The style is pretty neat and the animation looks good.

That looks kind of annoying. Like even more annoying than flies. Having to do up a line of buttons is an unpleasant activity to do a lot of times over.
rene
That one has way too many buttons Like 4 or 5 is enough
rene
Uh no wait I'm blind that literally has four
Anno
Yeah I was going to say I count four buttons there. I'd say the point where it gets excessive is two buttons, plus the "main" button at the top of the fly.
Anno
Or well more than that number.
But it's still all pretty dumb and I think in the long run a zipper fly is less of a nuisance.

>bitcoin ok I didn't do anything but glance at the page but that's amusing.

Yeah the story is damn amusing I guess some russian billionaire was bored and went "Hmm, I could buy a country with this amount of money" and he did
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
AND THEN he has a legitimate member of the romanov family become his country's emperor

If you'll recall the NEET I visited once, he had a primary source of income in taking care of his grandmother until she died.

>>577562 it gets worse ill explain when i get home in a few

>>577567 How'd you even find out? I doubt your mum would just tell you

I sure love feeling totally incapacitated for an entire afternoon. At least this headache is passing.
Kirara š
>>577568 I've been piecing it together for two years it wasn't until today i found the real motive
Anno
>>577561 I guess that's not really a good mystery. It's good that it gets solved though.
Kirara š
so it's a veteran thing apparently like if they can show the impairment is service-related, they'll pay my mom to quit her job and take care of him at home but he served almost 30 years ago, in somalia so she's trying to make up some story about a malaria drug suddenly destroying his brain after all this time she is already basically throwing her current job away and saying getting her national rifle association certification is more important than her job and taking days off to go shooting and stuff her goal has always been to not work, she nearly got my dad killed by bleeding him dry for manual labor money so she could stay in school and not work until he couldn't work anymore, then she left him for this new guy it's fucking sick
ę
my cousin who wanted to take care of my cat and give it a new home decided that she cannot do it any longer so i have to travel to go pick up my cat or else it's // she's going to find a new home for it life is so hard
Kirara š
what do you want to do do you want to go get it?
ę
yeah but idk how logistically or financially can't take it on a train no car, and it's a 9-hour drive
Maria
>>577572 What the fuck man Does she just keep chewing through people and tossing them away She's awful Do you plan on intervening?
it's so much better than baking bread the whole walter white story looks like shit in comparison and full of asspulls this has a much more grounded story and makes you think wtf how did the characters ever act so spontaneously and ungrounded in bb
Kirara š
yeah, i agree breaking bad felt like they were just going and going without an idea of what they wanted but BCS is like they know what they're doing and what characters they're building
rene
People who can eat people are the luckiest people in the world

>>577586 It took me a bit to figure out you meant better call saul. Seeing BCS makes me think of the BCS theory of superconductors.
ę
>>577588 hey i wrote a paper on that i remember that
ę
>>577586 the scenebuilding is so good too everything has really organic angles and super long takes it feels so real fuckin watching nacho mess around with a box of tic tacs for 8 minutes straight
ę
you feel all the weight and tension that goes behind each little scheme but then in baking bread it's just like, walter shows up at tuco's place with a crystal of mercury fulmonate and blows the whole place up?? such an asspull they couldn't even make up some realistic resolution to the issue so just introduce whatever mercury fulmonate is explosive but not like that it seemed like a show where they were always doubling down on extremes im sure they probably knew that too but they had to get ratings and shit. now that they've done bb they have the credibility to just say "hey let us do this our way"
Kirara š
the cinematography is amazing like there was this one scene with Kim in a parking garage where it's raining and you can see the outside and rain at like chest-level for kim
creamynebula
I like BCS a lot more than BB as well. Current season is a lot different from the previous ones, I feel it's less about building up the characters and explaining how they got to be who they are and more about showing the specific events that did it in a more straightforward manner
Alice
poi
ę
>>577592 kim is such a good character and played so well by that actor too she's got like an actual fuckin personality and not just "hey im the woman in this show"
ę
and it's a personality driven from real things like self-worth and obligation and curiosity and not just a list of character traits that they wrote down to describe a flat character
ę
>>577593 hi creamy! how have you been also just a heads up kirara still watchin it so no spoilies
creamynebula
>>577597 I'm good, and how are you doing? I remembered this place existed and suddenly I'm here. Crazy to see familiar names posting after so much time. I think it was 2013 or so since I last browsed the board frequently.

mostly the same crew here with varying frequency and a little intermingling from sister boards
Ugh I need to make dinner. Sometimes it feels like such a pain to cook.

i hate that my country is involved on border conflicts because i hate borders and i find both positions really dumb since either recognizing current borders or old borders means basically recognizing state borders (and not peoples)

Haa it is so much easier to live without having your brain constantly obsess about a music album
I'm tired but I don't want to sleep. I've been sleeping really badly lately.
Anno
I slept horribly over the weekend and I wonder if it might've had a hand in the dreadful headache I had earlier today. Sleeping is never easy.
Anno
>>577624 that's the worst >>577627 wait i retract my statement that's actually the worst
just remember to never follow your dreams
Kirara š
I keep dreaming about alcohol. Every night for a few weeks now. Usually it's just there in my dreams, I'm around people drinking it or whatever. But last night, someone in my dream was trying to pressure me into drinking.
I keep thinking about how Saku kept having those heroin dreams before he relapsed. I almost stopped at a liquor store today, but I stopped myself. I almost have my masters and I'm trying to get married. I don't want to fuck it up.
But I feel doomed.
Yuu
Do your best!
Doing the right thing here will also be doing the right thing by Saku.
Yuu
jan wanna anime?
>>577627 Unironically, don't feel doomed. You're doing well Keep it up!
Anno
nah
Kirara š
>>577631 It's easy to say that, and I'm probably not doomed, but it really feels like everything is rigged against me. I feel like I'm cursed.
>>577627 those are some heavy dreams coincidentally do you remember what the someone looked liked?
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
I sometimes actually have dreams about drinking too, but amusingly my dreamself always goes "I am not drunk, I am way too sober to be drunk, this must be a dream" and trhen I wake up quite confused thinking I was drinking and blacked out and woke up on my bed
ę
>>577633 you're not usually up this late busy or can't sleep?
yeah i guess that wasn't clear read it but wasn't sure if that's why you were still up or you had some late night work to be done i didn't wanna be too distracting if the latter but i'm here if it's the former
Kirara š
I just don't want to dream about it.
Yuu
>>577633 I think these are natural things that people feel. We all have a sense of doom that surfaces sometimes. Fightig addiction is pretty hard, and it's easy for me to talk about it since I haven't experienced it. You can't give in, though!
Kirara š
I've given in a lot of times this last week. I decided to buy alcohol, but I keep stopping myself before I do it. Fish will probably be really mad at me if I relapse. She'll be even madder at herself, though. I don't want that.
ive been feeling a lot of doom and gloom lately too every day there's just more things to worry about that i dont know what to do with and it feels like it's all gonna break apart
ę
>>577654 i was thinking about what you offered earlier and hadn't considered you might have been offering because you want to get away for a while yourself are you wanting to get away for a while
TN !PcAPtAiNJoFormerRei@mobile
Hissssssssssssssss This is snek.
Kirara š
>>577662 No, I want to be here for Fish. But I want to help my friends, too.
Yuu
Yeah, I think this is a good time to kinda come to terms with it and choose not to do it. The addiction and the risky behavior, that is. I know it's not easy but I also know that you can do it.
>>577679 Pretty hard I made a pretty illegal dash across an intersection to an island and then went right through the center of the intersection during the brief period that all four traffic lights were red.
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
>didn't even cause a traffic accident 0/1
Maria
>>577681 >right through the center of the intersection You're lucky you got out in time A man can get maronned for days on one of those islands before the traffic lets up
>>577692 I don't think I take many risks anymore. I've been very careful for a while now. Did Fish say I take too many risks or something?
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
Well hey mats aftertowards, save for stuff that will require it and my 120ā¬ dollar whisky I got for 85% the price, I will be alcohol free up untill 2019 so gambare with me untill that atleast
>>577697 huh? no way I was just commenting. It's good that you've reeled it in a bit though.
Kirara š
>>577703 No, I don't go more than 10 over on the highway, which isn't even ticketable.
>>577704 Do you think I take a lot of risks? You can ask Jan. Even in Utah, all of the risks I took were calculated and I tried hard to be safe. I'm trying to stay out of trouble, for the most part.
>>577708 HAHAHAHA I know this is unintentional but I like this "fuck I will have no problems, but you will" attitude
Yuu
>>577708 That's good then, I think you've been better lately if that's the case.
Kirara š
>>577710 I dunno, is that really what you think? I think I'm doing okay. I'd appreciate it if you would be honest with me if you don't agree. I'm trying to do what I can to be good husband material, I've been trying ever since I found out Fish was pregnant. I know she has always had concerns about me taking risks and she was usually right about them. So if I seem like I'm still taking bad risks, I'd appreciate that feedback.
Anno
I couldn't find my "the risks I took were calculated, but man I am bad at math" bird picture. Not because I think it's accurate but more because it's topically funny.
Yuu
>>577712 Well it is news to me that you've been trying to do better. I haven't revisited that opinion in awhile so maybe it is outdated. I think that could be the case since you have been trying to do better lately. I'm happy to hear that's the case.
Kirara š
>>577722 I can see why you might not have known. Even when I try, I always fuck up a lot. I just want to be a good, reliable husband. I'm probably a long ways away from that, though.
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
>>577712 yarr from a divorce household as am I, so remember to not change yourself too much when it comes to marriage or the end result will not be good
not going to happen with you, but just a reminder
Yuu
>>577725 No, I think you'll do a good job. You're good at doing something once you set your mind to it.
Kirara š
>>577731 Well, my follow-through is honestly pretty bad most of the time. I'm really bad at a lot of stuff. I appreciate you saying that, though. I don't really talk about how often I fail here.
excellent, good, and wonderfull are most of time just movie magick
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
that came out wrong but too late
Yuu
>>577733 Everybody is failing at stuff constantly. People learn by doing, and you have to fail to learn.
Anno
Most of the dangerous risks we took in Utah were really just me taking a dangerous risk and imats yelling at me not to die!
Kirara š
>>577750 I'm a pretty spectacular fuck up, though. I'm trying to get better, but I don't know if I am getting better because the only measure of it is biased against me. But whatever. I just want to be a good husband.
>>577752 Or laughing and saying I'll make sure your parents see the video.
Anno
>>577752 Oh good I'm not the only one that has to do this when we meet up now.
I should probably close my window for the season. Or at least at night, where it doesn't seem temperatures will peak above 13C or so. Those temperatures aren't really my kind of relaxation temperatures.
>>577765 I think you might believe in me more than I do. I hope you're right, though. I already asked someone to be my best man and everything.
Anno
>>577753 my only fear is that when i die nobody will be able to see how dumb it was
Kirara š
count on me to be there
Kirara š
Going to try to sleep. My hope is that sleeping in short bursts will stop me from dreaming.
Anno
Kind of reminds me of those uberman sleep schedules. Good luck though.
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
>>577783 nite there are some ways to control dreaming and I don't mean that lucid whatever stuff but basically involves either thinking practice or listening to stuff as you are falling asleep
I myself find the latter easier, since thinking just keeps me awake
