another birthday card came in the mail this one is from the people that own the clinic im leaving in a few weeks signed by 7 people of whom i have only ever met one "have a great year" thanks stranger it means a lot to me
>>720649 I don't think it has anything to do with me You playing and my playing being a question, mioght affect MY mental state, but with jan nah or so I feel
>>720655 I don't think Jan at the moment wants to do with anyone on any platform that he is on and I doubt in RL he is very receptive either I seriously doubt he is very much avoiding you, well more than he is avoiding everyone except bare minimum, to keep people from thinking he is dead and overly worrying or something Just my guess
>>720659 i feel responsible though i know you're going to say that's stupid etc it's got nothing to do with that but im sure there's something i could have done i feel like it's my fault he's like this
i ended up making him feel bad for things that were outside his control, because i had poor self control
btw any idea why is he gone isolationism? *has >>720662 cause I seriously doubt it was anything moon did You barely are mean to a fly atleast in the emotional way that gets transferred here
Not Jesus Christ we celebrate and honour him on Christmas but it is a known fact that his birthday was moved to christmas later on there actually are DOCUMENTATION of that meeting >>720672 something like that not to mention the gregorian calender switch
So imagine beingo ne of these guys you most likely are a quite top pokemon trainer gotten employed by the LEAGUE and your job is to check for badges and open a door
I mean I'd do that job yeah but it is like... >being a sports bar bouncer after failing to be WC in soccer
I think the So big X that God Can't Y it is fundamentally a silly question it presumes, that a human mind can even comprehend a concept like Omnpotency >sin of pride hmm
i actually mentioned that to pan and he said he's not necessarily against it but his financial situation isn't one that would enable him to because of his student loans
uh northen kentucky? >>720695 if anyone could it is probably you
月
>>720695 it definitely is i have wondered though if it is possible to shout into someone's mouth so hard that you rupture their lungs >>720697 not in a city center or anything though where it'll be slightly inflated?
>>720695 it's possible for vibrations to rupture lungs. they have that mechanism on some submarine boats just let loose a shockwave that any frogmen nearby just obliterate from the vibrations but that's underwater. in air would be a lot harder
I would say I live in a city whose main city bits are a short ways down the street.
!C0.PerkELE
>>720698 to be more accurate that is how depth... ahaha No that isn' how depth charges work But I would imagine that any anti-frogman bomb in a submarine would just be a minor depth charge
>>720691 is he a student? i dont even know what he does i never thought to ask
>>720699 well im getting some new contracts and stuff i can make about 500-1000 a week but i have some irs things and sometimes there's low work for a while
i'll keep this stuff in the back of my mind but im not gonna over-commit to it to where it's an awkward obligation to others to follow through but if yall can do stuff to make it happen let me know id be happy to absorb a bit of the initial costs or something
>>720702 oh that's cool is he a server or a cook >>720703 oh that's hard isn't it does he enjoy it
I have had quite few friends working in the food industry especially the kitchens no one has really enjoyed it that much even when they did they knw they were overworked
>>720709 i worked a bakery and breakfast shift at a diner when i was 15 i liked it
>>720711 maybe he can do those cool certification courses instead of traditional schools schools are so useless and expensive now >>720713 imagine being the guy who has to eat all the food sure it sounds like fun at the start but after the first 15 or so orders you're gonna run out of room
!C0.PerkELE
>>720712 but imagine being the guy who has to make all the food
>>720727 A couple characters maybe Maybe the best Tales protagonist But I wouldn't know I especially wouldn't know that despite getting everyone else in the main cast back for the remastered version they somehow didn't contact Troy Baker to reprise his role which is definitely not the most bizarre decision I've ever seen.
!C0.PerkELE
troy is actually quite big name in english voice acting world, tho
>"Mercer was offered the role but declined. Said in an interview he didnt want to be known as discount Troy." Would you like to hazard a guess as to what my thoughts were the first time I ever heard Matthew Mercer
>>720742 I am more impressd by people who can say voice a fucking DEEP voicedvillain a generic heroic guy and then a high pitched CHIPMUNK of all things than just some guy who does around same voice always
Talesof !NuKeSlvmWE
>>720742 reminder that Alvin is a Sugoi character in the Tales of Moe canon. He betrays the party at least three times. atleast
without knowing anything about the area im seeing rental homes like 900-1200 for three bedrooms that seems totally doable apartments are nice too for reasons but homes are cooler and i can have a garden
Ever realised that pokemon world producers are DAMN good at exact values? >repel is good for 100/150/250 steps >lemonade is 80 hp >milk is 100 >potions are 25/50/100/150/MAX and so on
Talesof !NuKeSlvmWE
potions are actually 20 50 200 max until gen 7 where it's 20 50 120 max
!C0.PerkELE
YEAH I MISTYPED was that the point you had to correcty instead of the actual POINT
Talesof !NuKeSlvmWE
I would imagine lots of games where there'sa step counter and an item that repels pokemon there would be a nice round number they use for repellant. Additionally uh final fantasy has potions that are like 100 1000 etc >>720755 Are you aware of how downright strange and silly this question is
>>720754 No I am pointing out how fucking precise your instruments must be that they always heal X amount that they always Repel Y steps and so on that technological precision alone is just fucking SCIFI I can't even wrap my head around it
Talesof !NuKeSlvmWE
"Have you ever noticed that the producers of items in pokemon have exact values for what they do? It's almost like the programmers set them to those values or something."
>>720757 Because i am analysing it beyond its element Is this the first time you hear of this concept? >>>/watch?v=OccWmmaCqlE Here have someone over analyze pokemon breeding habits
You dense mother hecker the reason those items are so precise is because they are tied to game mechanics of course they're not going to be exact in a real world equivalent
THEN WHY ARE YOU TRYING TO MAKE IT REALISTIC WHEN IT ISNT
>>720764 is your billing address your current shipping address? ive been wanting to order something so it'd get there on your birfday but i didn't know if that was your address like it might end up going to your old home address and your mom gets it or something and thinks i got it for her
>>720768 fruit is a pain. it's good but they're a hassle and they get sticky i sometimes just take my vitamins and have those fruit blend drinks instead >>720770 okay well i didn't get it ordered in time then to arrive today so i guess we'll have to wait until next year i couldn't really find a good quality thing i wanted anyway they all looked cheap and poor quality
Koi
>>720759 that would be nice but i am sure any fruit I buy today will be as dry inside as my bad jokes
Koi
i am just going to toss abucket of ice across my lawn ad let it drink that. fuck this watering with a hose thing.
>>720782 go back to middle school grade 1 philosophy
Talesof !NuKeSlvmWE
>>>/@KSUWABE/1153255210225025024 why is this yogurt drink so big >>720783 we don't have philosophy classes in elementary education those aren't on our standardized tests.
Kirara 🍄
well most middle schoolers aren't developmentally advanced enough to have the level of abstract reasoning necessary for philosophy anyway
I'm sure PK when he was taking his philosophy class in middle school was perfectly able to understand everything they told him.
!C0.PerkELE
>>720785 they will have the fundamental roots there for later understanding
!C0.PerkELE
>>720786 >implying I listened to anything in middle school
Kirara 🍄
>>720787 no, without the skills necessary to make those connections - well, not skills, but brain development, the information other than historical fact is lost there's no way for the brain to retain that information to the degree that's necessary unless you're teaching nothing but philosophy
>>720789 Dependso n the individual, but nonetheless it will make it easier to learn the actual ideas behind the stuff in high school and later education if you ask me and well, I guess finnish education
>>720800 Based on the language of the signs, how Cocoa is only japanese character actually or if she even is japanese for that matter, she migrated to that country, hilighted in 1st episode too
Anyhow the series weirdly features both german and french in signs and menus with of course the name beingi n English which is weird for a french/german region, but not impossible architecture anyhow points it to being in somewhere near Rhein river
Kirara 🍄
>>720797 well, chino doesn't work at Starbucks, so of course
>>720817 wow busy! i haven't lined up any work for today ive been working a lot though im tryna set a goal of 200 a day which sometimes i can do a good bit more but i need a bone break today
with my new keyboard, even though it's a mini keyboard and a little tough to use, at my desk with it i can go about 30 minutes per hour that's $30-$45 an hour for applicable work the issue is just having enough work to do that consistently
if i can land some new contracts and have steady work i could really be making pretty good money >>720821 are you gonna have a special birthday dinner or breakfast
>>720822 thanks. the hurdle is gettin enough applicable work like those clients that pay those rights are nice but they dont make up all of my work. i might only get a few hours of that type of stuff.
when i run out of those things to do, i can do an almost endless supply of stuff for another company but i get low rates so only make like $10 an hour there >>720824 is there a traditional finnish birthday song
>>720844 it is how much damage I took from a hit that dealth 22 damage before I boosted my def with a coil that hit my coil and was a crit and then dealt 22x - additional defense modifiers x 2 54 dmg which was my total hp
they already made by Crit build impossible in modern games and now they just tell me "crits go through all deff" ...
Talesof !NuKeSlvmWE
they just always have like in gen 1 it was actually poorly coded in that they ignore ALL stat changes including your buffs. But ever since gen 2 they ignore enemy buffs.
It makes sense that a crit would ignore defense since you're striking a critical point
oh by the way crit builds are not impossible in newer gen in fact they're easier. Super Lens // Super Luck + Scope Lens + Crit Move = Guaranteed crit Or you can do what I did with Kingdra recently which is Focus Energy + Scope Lens with the Sniper ability.
They nerfed crits in the newer games from 2x damage to 1.5, but Sniper raises that back up to 2.25
I once sieged a province in EU4 with Siege 6 modifier general with enough artillery to get siege +6 artillery modifier with this province being blockaded ignoring the -2 (not blockaded) modifier
I sieged it for 2 years if not more my Minimum ROLL at stage 0 at initial stage was "siege progresses by 1"
>>720865 guess doess enemy liepard get killed by rocky helmet or well the rock slide or whatever that would be 1 hit kill or does my boy be attracted untill it all ends
my groceries will be delivered today i have butternut squashes coming im gonna make soup!
i wish i had acorn squash to go with this whole grain pasta is though >>720888 you've asked me this a bunch lol i still haven't played it but i'll get around to it >>720891 legacy of kain was really cool
!C0.PerkELE
>>720885 btw have you watched this yet? >>>/watch?v=opUb5hdzRRA >>720887 I dunno what your opinion on Undertale is, but you might like this musical version of it
>>720887 A-a-a-a That is LEGACY OF KAIN yeah but that is my common obsession this is much more recent and the only person I have reallty and ONLY bothered with the musicla has been ToN
I actually watched the musical first and then went to play the game
Talesof !NuKeSlvmWE
oh and for another reference, Mewtwo sits at the thicc 154 base special attack
月
what's your favorite vegetable >>720894 hmmm properly it would be a bulb but yeah i'd throw it in with vegetables
there's bulbs, roots, tubers // oh wait i think those are subcategories of vegetables not separate
potato is a tuber. it's still a vegetable though i guess
squashes are actually fruits but they seem like a vegetable to me i really like squash
Btw speaking about my luck I have around... 65% chance of critting when enemy uses Full restore so far in elite four well.. tbh it is 100% the 35% is "when I used non damaging move"
I want a version of this game where you fight all 8 of these HERE BW remake when?
!C0.PerkELE
>8 6
Anno
Well assuming the model remains constant, we'll see a Diamond/Pearl remake in 2021. Gen ... IX? in 2022/23. So Black/White in 2024/25 Who knows if Black/White 2 will be incorporated there or a later release.
!C0.PerkELE
>>720909 if theyd o BW, I wish they kinda do it at once with BW2 kinda being a DLC to it
Anno
To hell with DLC go full HG/SS and have Black/White 2 be the postgame. Only break from traditional and have the player start a brand new character for it.
But considering how much of a conservative company Game Freak is there would have to be a huge paradigm shift in the company before anything like that even has a chance at being realized.
!C0.PerkELE
>>720911 yeah BW1 has 0 post game save Cynthiaor whatver her face
fusion of the two games, but with two characters still and HAVE FUCKING BW2 CHARACTER FACE OFF BW1 CHARACTERT WITH YOUR ACTUAL TEAM as af inal boss Imagine that
!C0.PerkELE
My only criticism of bw1 and bw2 is that I can't fight my bw1 cahracter in bw2 despite the two being VERY similiar to RGB and G/S
>>720911 actually I don't think BW2 being the same character while it yeah would work but I think doing it traditionally but basically redoing the original and original sequel thing wouldw ork more
But just making it actally, using the modern technology like Dragon's Dogma where the Champion of BW1, YOU, uses YOUR team to an extension, against you of BW2
and even shares the NAME cause that would be superduperübercool
Kirara 🍄
just switch your team out at the end ezgame
!C0.PerkELE
>>720915 mats Name my Zuperduper legendary Lightning dragon
>evil man who runs an organization as a front to further his own goals and is so cruel as to use and delude even his own son in order to take over the world I definitely haven't heard that before.
!C0.PerkELE
>>720961 when was the last time you played BW1 and well knwoning you did you even listen or read to the story chances are that you didn't
I'm not sure. Can't remember if I've seen more news on the anime since the adaptation was announced. I don't even think they've got a studio or production staff announced yet.
>>720996 did you ever check out underlords? it's pretty interesting i still find mahjong more satisfying but it works for when you don't want to think that hard
>>721001 Hadn't gotten around to it yet, hah hah. I've been in a good bit of a slump that's put me off doing new things and just stuck to things I know. I'll probably try it out at some point but I haven't pencilled it in or anything.
im not really sure why i brought it up. i dont really touch it at all. im back on to mahjong though you should sign in. there were some server issues so they mailed out a big compensation reward for like 60k copper and one whole summon scroll
i assume everyone gets it, whether you were there or not for the errors
also they have the servers all fully integrated now, japanese chinese and western so there's a good queue for the matches. aaaaand they introduces male summons!
Anno
I'm not interested in male characters I want cute girls!
That's weird though, I've seen enough Chinese and a few Japanese people while playing that I assumed the servers were pretty much shared between the respective language clients already.
I'll check in for the compensation though. With sixty thousand copper I can definitely get back on my third placing streaks again without concern.
月
yeah, im not sure what the server stuff is really it might just be behind the scenes stuff like how you couldn't spectate games before if it had players from a different region which meant for certain that there were different region servers queueing for the same rooms
it might be something like that though, like the different region clients/servers all would lead to the same matchmaking pool but weren't quite parallel or something i haven't seen as many disconnected chinese players as before. i guess the servers are a little more robust
月
maria crept up to expert 1 somehow grats maria
Anno
That must have been a real slog. I couldn't get my rank to climb higher than mid Adept 1. If getting over into Adept 2 felt at least feasible that would probably be a little more encouraging, hah hah.
Anno
Oh okay the dog is kind of charming. It doesn't look like I get the summon scroll though, but my copper's up around forty-six thousand now, which is a lot more than I recall it floating around.
月
you didn't get it in the mail about server issues? it should be from yesterday or something
>>721010 Yeah, I'd checked the mail and the only thing in it was an old one that had some copper and rare-ish gift items, I think. Nothing with a summon scroll at least.
>>721013 oh, a mix of things, some good some bad, all tired how about you?
my thoughts have been racing again and it makes me worry myself sick over things i can't control
Anno
Yeah, wasn't anything with the Compensation subject. I guess they're smart enough to keep track of who's online and who's not.
Kannagi
>>721015 I'm super tired too. Handed in my last essay that is the decider on if I continue my uni course or not early this morning, I didn't sleep much trying to get it done. I gotta get my house now ready for my move. I won't have internet for a week or two when I move out. My thoughts race sometimes, I get a very noisy head and sometimes I only realise I'm super stressed when I have moment to slow down.
I sent someone an email asking them to start including MMPI testing in the client schedules so I could get more of them in for testing, which we want on every client. We talked about it several times in person, too. So I sent an email with a list of names and whether I wanted MMPI on them or MMPI and MCMI. I said the MMPI takes 1-2 hours, so please schedule for 2 hours if it's MMPI. The MCMI takes 30-45 minutes, so if it's MMPI and MCMI, schedule 2.5 hours.
She scheduled two MMPIs for 1 hour each. And then she asked me if I could do another thing that takes 20 minutes in during one of those hours.
I felt that I was very clear about the amount of time that needs to be scheduled for testing. She even texted me to verify that an MMPI takes about two hours at one point.
Anno
Are you going to tell her that you need more time to do the MMPIs?
The point of this is to eventually make it so people other than me can set people up to do the MMPI so we can have them done when I'm not here since I have a million responsibilities and no time to administer the tests now

new phone battery arrived put it in phone, phone can turn on and stuff but i can't charge the phone. ive tried a few different outlets but only have the one charger.
just based on your own speculations, do you think the charger is messed up itself or there's a problem with the phone charging port
>>721037 hm i think that's probably possible. i haven't looked at the guts of it but maybe >>721040 is it an easy thing to fix if it's the guts im not trained to perform surgery on electronic entities
Samu 🗽 !KW2DbpWwls
yea micro usb ports are not particularly mechanically strong ports
Samu 🗽 !KW2DbpWwls
uhh i wouldnt attempt that personally seems very finicky work really i think the first thing to try is digging out all the lint w a paperclip or toothpick
FormerRei@mobile
Another thing to try is a different cable. I forgot to try that and ended up with two wireless chargers I don't really use. Cause I thought the port was broken but it was just the cable.
yeah i thought about a wireless thing too but i dunno if g4 does that actually i do know if it does it, and the answer is no, but it's easy to rig but i think you have to use the charging port anyway
i'll see if there's somewhere i can buy a new charging cable nearby i can't just use any microusb right it needs to be for lg devices?
Samu 🗽 !KW2DbpWwls
any micro usb ought to be fine
FormerRei@mobile
You should be able to use any microusb
Samu 🗽 !KW2DbpWwls
you can also plug it into your PC obvs
月
thanx guys
Anno
>>721043 Also any of the power adapter parts you plug into your house outlet should work, but make note of the voltage and ampere rates on the actual adapter block, if it has them written on it. Matching a new charger as close to those as possible can help preserve a battery's life use.
yeah, this old stone house has like only a few electrical ports at all and they seem kinda wonky
i think my roommate has one of those precariously dangerous hostage situations with the surge protectors going on in his room too like 12 multi-outlet adapters all hooked up to each other to support all his stuff and air conditioner all off one outlet there's so many cords he's gonna trip some day and break his collarbone and maybe start a fire but it's fine this is a stone house
Anno
I'm sure there's sooome wood for a fire to burn in it.
Someone told the person who runs our vet IOP and PHP that I'm the first person who has sat down with them and said we should/we can/we will do things and then actually does it. One of the guys keeps telling me he likes me because I say I'm gonna do something and then I do it, too.
But I think the biggest thing is that I understand PTSD very intimately and I've seen enough shit (albeit different shit) that we have that point of connection
Right now I have 4 vets that I'm seeing weekly and one first responder who was at 9/11 9/11-chan isn't a vet but she's in the vet IOP
well, the way modifiers work if they're selling a plush simulation, that's not quite the same as a simulation plush so i assume plush vegetable(simulated)
i don't see very any simulations that are plush. usually they're pretty rigid, but sometimes
Anno
But what if it's a simulated plush (vegetable style) and the person who put up the shop article just doesn't have a very strong grasp on English syntax?
how do mooses have the musculature to stand on their hind legs that's so awkward and frustrating to see i want to tell them to stop doing that
they do it when they're trying to eat the leaves off branches >>721070 oh i see, yeah i haven't tried the vegetable version of simulated plush but i should try it out sometime
Anno
As far as I'm concerned meese are free to do whatever the fuck they want I'm not gonna tell them otherwise.
this is that girl that's the scientific illustrator at the toronto museum and does all the animal portraits she's really cool
Anno
>Chill attitude I mean, chill like any other deer-family species. It's just where deer will bolt away from you, a moose is more inclined to bolt AT you.
>>721075 I don't think I've spent a lot of time in the natural history parts of the ROM. Not because of a distaste for it or anything, it's just I tend to wander museums and because my internal compass goes all wonk once I'm indoors I get turned around easily. For some reason I always end up in the civilization part of the museum where they've got a bunch of historical artifacts from a lot of cultures. Probably because I liked it a lot as a kid so there's some faint muscle memory guiding me through my confusion towards it.
if i ever come up to toronto we should go check it out i love museums they're almost as good as botanical gardens
Anno
Yeah museums are pretty cool. We've hit up a museum or two every time we've gone to Philly. I really like their art museum; I kind of just want a whole day to myself and it some time, getting to explore thoroughly the entire instutution. Institution even.
Anno
>>721077 Not that I think we could see the whole ROM in one day but it's a pretty short walk to the Art Gallery of Ontario from it. I'm pretty sure they've got some decent stuff in there too. At the least a lot of the Group of Seven's work is up in it.
wow they have skin on their antlers?? and they just scrape that shit off on the trees do you think they feel any of that?
just walking around with big bloody sheets of skin hanging from their antlers that's horrifying
Anno
Yeah, it's commonly called velvet. I don't think there's a lot of nerves in the antlers though, especially considering like most other mammals in that family that grow antlers, the antlers fall off come ... winter, I think? If I'm recalling my information correctly the antlers are edible to meese, caribou, elk, and the like, and falling off of the antlers in winter is a way for them to have sustenance when all the vegetation in the cold climates gets scarce. Though I'm not all that certain if I'm remembering that properly.
But yeah a moose can be a pretty scary thing to encounter.
月
i believe moose are the only ones who shed their antlers but i might be wrong. yeah it's in the winter, though, as they would lose too much heat with that surface area in the winter
it looks like scavengers often eat the antlers, and by scavengers i mean hibernating critters like squirrels and pigupines maybe the deers can too i imagine anything is a welcome treat during the winter months
>>721082 In most arctic and temperate-zone species, antler growth and shedding is annual, and is controlled by the length of daylight. Although the antlers are regrown each year, their size varies with the age of the animal in many species, increasing annually over several years before reaching maximum size. In tropical species, antlers may be shed at any time of year, and in some species such as the sambar, antlers are shed at different times in the year depending on multiple factors. Some equatorial deer never shed their antlers.
Assuming Wikipedia's correct, looks like shedding is more the norm than otherwise. I'm not seeing anything about moose or other cervidae eating their own antlers though, so I'm gonna figure I was wrong about that. They're definitely edible though, and yeah I bet all the wintertime scavengers are happy to eat anything they can get their hands on.
>>721085 there's probably a reason if they aren't eating them. besides it being mostly calcium and stuff i mean
cannibalism (even if it's just eating stuff you or other meese have shedded) can be a really dangerous vector for infection it's really bad with those turtles that eat other turtles in the colony or eat other turtles' eggs that's one of the quickest ways for one single disease to wipe out an entire community disease or parasite*
i don't know the social structures of the moose but maybe that's got something to do with it they also have really sensitive digestive systems so maybe it's not very digestible for them. they can't have too much fiber or their intestines get blocked up
Anno
Maybe it's what you meant the antlers being mostly calcium but oh yeah you're getting to it too yeah. As long-time evolved herbivores it could be that their digestive systems are just not spec'd into being able to consume something that fibrous and dense.
I believe moose are mostly solitary or brief extremely tiny familial unit as it goes for social structures. The most social interaction they have is when regional populations come together in the spring for mating rituals. They don't really do the regular herd structure that you see in most other cervidae species.
animalogic is one of the better ecosystem channels ive come across i think i really like them if i had disposable income i'd support channels i like through patreon but oh well
i think im going to sign up for that curiosity stream though. i finally have a little extra cash where it's a negligible cost and they do have some cool stuff. it's not as highly detailed but they have a little higher production value and go a little bit more towards entertainment
>>721090 yeah, their antlers would just be growing in spring autumn is when they're at their biggest for signalling, and then the baby can be born in spring i don't think a newborn would survive being born right into the winter
it amazes me how suitable newborn cervids are though like they're born and within a few minutes they can already stand up and see with their eyes
Anno
Oh their mating season is in the autumn, not spring.
I love the big honkin' noses on moose. They're a good mix of adorable and goofy.
Anno
Algonquin Park's a decent bit north from Toronto. Like 160-75% further away from the city than my family's cottage, and that's already a 2.5-hour drive. There's a lot of good territory even around there though that you can some times see moose around.
月
>>721092 yeah, they do kind of honk don't they. sound like really big geese sometimes
Anno
Wikipedia says the male mating call grunts can be heard up to five hundred metres away. Imagine you're hiking somewhere and then just off in the distance you hear what sounds like a titanous goose honking at you. Would be pretty terrifying.
>>721095 >The normal intelligible outdoor range of the male human voice in still air is 180 m (590 ft 6.6 in). The silbo, the whistled language of the Spanish-speaking inhabitants of the Canary Island of La Gomera, is intelligible under ideal conditions at 8 km (5 miles). this is neat
Anno
Being able to natively communicate across eight kilometres would be pretty crazy. Though anything you say would have you waiting almost a minute for the response, hah hah.
>>721107 Okay So what your saying is Psychology isn't a science
Kirara 🍄
i wish people didn't want to make it a science western science sucks and id be proud to not be considered science by western standards psychology is just psychology
>>721106 super useful for survival though i imagine you can spread out more and still communicate when hunting or foraging or anything. if you encounter something dangerous you can whistle for help and start moving that way. if you find something you need help with that's just too much for one person you can communicate it over a distance like one person probably isn't going to be taking down a moose with primitive equipment, but two or three might. you'll need like a dozen though to get the thing wherever you want it once you've taken it down
>>721114 gross i would never use an iphone which are made in china anyway
Anno
There's a whole birthday thread for you here on /moe/!

>>721112 Yeah if anything it makes me wonder why othef societies, especially ones like here in North America, didn't also develop long-range languages. For a hunter-gatherer people suchal -such a tool seems invaluable. Maybe the environment just never really necessitated it.
>>721117 well i think everyone had whistling. those canary island people just developed a more complex language out of it than just "HEY" i don't know how complex that is though. it doesn't have to be too robust to be considered a language.
whistling is pretty hard too, to do that loud like some people just can't physically do it, a lot just don't know how
the natives had the smoke signals though. those were pretty handy since you aren't really gonna be trying to chat with anyone until you've settled down and started a fire anyway. i think they used tanned hide drums to do similar stuff too, just some percussion to carry sound.
>>721122 we're always here for you! i got you a potato stress ball, but i didn't actually get it because i don't have your address so you'll just have to accept it into your heart and it will be there instead
my grandma, the one i was caretaking for on hospice, even up to the very end she'd give me a birthday card every single year with two $1 bills in it she gave each of her grandkids two dollars on their birthday, which ended up being a nontrivial amount when you have a lot of grandkids
it was very endearing but made me sad a lot too she was so sweet she was also incredibly abusive but she was still sweet
Anno
Set it aside and use it to buy HIS birthday present!
>>721131 have a good night then i'm about to set sail to snoozeville myself i can barely stay awake

I kind of want a nap too. I don't think I got much more than three hours last night and it's kind of tuckering me out. But I also finally woke up at a decent time in the morning for the first time in a while and I'm hesitant to do something that might throw a repeat of that off.

like ‘AR15 stands for assault rifle” is a recent meme
i gotta figure out what im gonna do in my groups tomorrow ive got this art therapy group now too mindfulness group is easy to come up with since that's my thing but habits of wellness and creative healing are different beasts
then ive got two life coaching sessions and ive gotta tell some parents their son is adhd and dysgraphia and he's probably getting ritalin and ive got my last group at the clinic im leaving
this week is pretty busy im getting like 20 client contact hours full time therapists usually get like 15 if they're community mental health

is it ive seen that for years really maybe i just assumed it was ironic before
Anno
Yeah I feel that's an old-ass meme.
Anno
There's a song that just came up on my spotify and I swear I've heard it before elsewhere. Like in a game or as background audio to something. But I can't place it. The artist Bandcamp says their stuff is open to licensing for other media so it's definitely possible, but it's also likely I've just heard it on Spotify before and wasn't paying attention at the time. It's making my brain go a little confused though.
i haven't heard it before but it's nice it reminds me of the frozen synapse soundtracks
Anno
The single release that song comes from came out in March, so it's unlikely I would have heard it in anything unless circumstances perfectly alligned or something, so I guess I'm just forgetting I'd heard it already. The feeling of how it's familiar is real weird though.
Maybe it played on the playlist I was listening to while I slept last night and it's entered my memory in a weird fuzzy way because of that.
FormerRei@mobile
>>721222 Well It did a really long time ago But now its ARmalite
FormerRei@mobile
Err Armalite Rifle But see this https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/ArmaLite_AR-15 >The ArmaLite AR-15 is a select-fire, air-cooled, gas-operated, magazine-fed assault rifle manufactured in the United States between 1959 and 1964, and adopted by the United States Armed Forces as the M16 rifle.
i see you're online tilde! are you gonna queue or is that just open in the background
i snapped back into mahjong mode i guess where i'll probably be until the next work assignments come through
Anno
I was playing a bit earlier when we were first talking about it today. Might spin up a queue, depends on how much attention the other stuff I'm doing needs. There's a lot of downtime in it some times so it's ample opportunity to play an East Round.
ive been so uninterested in it the past month, even thinking of playing made me fatigued
but now it's back to consuming my free thoughtspace i dunno what it is to mahjong but it's just got such a tangibility to it you can really feel stuff, once you're really playing seriously if you're not too serious it's all kind of superfluous though
i bet that sensation is amplified a ton in a physical mahjong game where you spend all the time setting it up and physically handle each piece, you get to see people as they're thinking about what to discard and how they're organizing their tiles (if at all) it's such a good game for people with obsessive qualities like me
Anno
And in the face-to-face qualities you also have the drive for poker faces, which is something an online client doesn't quite have. I mean there's being a fast discard or making it seem like anything you discard is a casual discard, but that's different from having to be self-aware of the faces you're making as you're watching the game unfold. I like making faces when I'm disappointed so being encouraged to poker face is lame to me!

He's gone climbing all the mountains in the world.
boo? i saw boo when i went to north carolina with indy, charlie, matteus and schwenk he was pretty autsy and did some weird stuff but he wasn't a terrible person or anything i tried to teach him how to swim
he liked my cooking so much that he ate a second serving not knowing i only made one for each person so i didn't get to eat a moonburger but that's okay i already know how they taste
Anno
Not knowing how to swim kind of feels like a terrifying life to me.
i spent that whole trip either cooking, cleaning up, or at the beach pretty much i cannot believe how messy people can be
it was actually the first thing i did when i got to indy's house and met everyone is i was visibly uncomfortable and like "uh, do you mind if i clean your kitchen" soooo many dishes
hmm the ones you'd get at a sports event or carnival or something would be like just a grilled hotdog on a skewer with a thick layer of cornbread around it it's okay but i thiink they're kind of dry that way the way i make them is a lot lighter on the breading and a lot more focused on the dogs
im trying to think if there's a comparison it'd be about the thickness and consistency of tempura, but obvious with cornbread batter instead of tempura mix
>>721767 i honestly like pork hotdogs but im fine with beef
FormerRei@mobile
I don't like most normal corndogs but there was a brand of kosher miniature corndogs that I liked a lot as a kid.
he had those toe-shoes, if you know what im talking about and he was extremely pale and would do weird things out in public like perch on top of really tall cement blocks and act like he was a vampire haha i think i ended up saying a couple mean things to him which i felt bad about but i was nice to him plenty too to make up for it
im pretty eccentric myself afterall so im not one to judge i was drinking back then too and i was spending a whole lot of time really drunk so im sure i was obnoxious to be around too
>>721769 there was lots of drinking being done and fried foods go really well with beer i think indy's roommate was crushing on me a little bit but i was extremely awkward so i probably blew it haha i dont know how to deal with that stuff
Anno
>>721765 I'm not a huge sausage/hotdog fan to begin with so I've never really been inspired to try one. I definitely do like batter-fried foods though, so it's not that side that's a turn-off.
FormerRei@mobile
>>721768 He sounds pretty autistic. So is he the fairy guy?
he's very autistic you two would probably get along great
yeah he's the fairy guy but it's hard to say what he actually thinks i think he just likes being as chuuni as possible, especially when he's drinking he likes card games and tabletop stuff a ton and wasn't a bad person
he was actually extremely athletic he had like abs and stuff and was fairly handsome despite being so pale but toe shoes are always unattractive regardless
i wonder what people have to say about me when they're reminiscing back on meetups hopefully it's at least somewhat good i can be really neurotic it comes across the wrong way a lot of times like im irritated or judgmental instead of just me being nervous
Anno
Yeah, I can be a bit of a rigid person or say things in a tone that make people think I'm mad at them or judging them. When really I 'm just seeking clarity and precise information.
Of course some times I am kind of judging them so maybe I don't make things that easy.
Though I have the benefit of being happy to be a social bystander in a group so a lot of people don't ever actually realize how anal I can be.

>>721774 I saw a dude in platform crocs at the mysuc festival on Saturday. *music
>>721775 im extremely uncomfortable when there's not some sort of underlying activity going on so if im just sitting at a table with people and we're not playing a game or having a discussion about something clear and objective, like planning something or strategizing, i get antsy and have to do stuff that's why im always cleaning or cooking or finding something to do, because direct attention makes me really uncomfortable if it's not in an environment where something is going on
there's something about the stillness and blankness that makes me just freeze up it's like the awkwardness of eye contact with someone. you see them making eye contact then you uncomfortably look around and find something to stay or do because it's uncomfortable
