I'm honestly kinda sad that we didn't get regular monthly releases of Merry because this arc and these fights are pretty cool. The mushroom girls sorta show up out of nowhere and are super powerful but I love them all. They're cute and have good powers.
Also, I think Ushiki is channeling a lot of "You can not kill me in a way that matters" into them. It's great.

>starting in fullscreen mode 2020 what games do this
today i learned there are people out there actually trying to campaign to end... golf forget class inequality or war or bigotry or disease or the destruction of our environments, having neatly terraformed sections of greenery you can hit a tiny ball around for fun is the true evil
yeah they were in a pair of pants >>843419 golf does suck though I'm not campaigning to end it anytime soon
Anno
>>843419 Well to be fair the neatly terraformed sections of greenery often involve some pretty unnecessary destruction of our environments. In parts of the world where water is more scarce, hell, even parts of the States where water is more scarce, the insistence on having a golf course in driving range of everyone does involve a lot of water being very uselessly devoted to golf green upkeep. I don't think we need to end golf entirely but I do believe it would be a net positive if we didn't have so many courses every-fucking-where.
>>843422 frankly from an environmental standpoint I would consider the violent displacement of wildlife more concerning than the use of water to keep the flora alive
JaPAN
>>843421 i never liked golf much i did enjoy going to top golf before though it's like golf but with minigames and more alcohol
Anno
the tiktok teens have gone too far
Anno
>>843424 Maybe in environments where the natural precipitation is enough to sustain, or at least mostly cover, the needs of the golf green. Wildlife displacement per golf course is mostly a single time thing though, where as with courses in environments where they need considerable artificial watering, that's a life-long consequence of the course. Bringing water to parts where the local supply is already insufficient to the human demand can be a logistical problem and can have secondary environmental concerns if large pipelines need to be laid, or the fuel consumption for tanker trucks, or the power demand to extract that water. Plus if you're putting a lot of water into soil and ground that historically has not been the kind of environment that saw such a high-traffic water cycle, it can have considerable long-term warping of the immediate environment. Water has a lot of consequences!

Today is looking a lot like last Monday for stocks when I made 20k unfortunately, I didn't put as much money in. So I'm not going to be exploding in money like that But it should still be significant
gonna do some dumb shit and try to grab a grand today ...or maybe not, I really don't feel like it that much but I should probably jump in a few stocks at least
should be a good run today. it's just hard to choose an entry point when things go up like this. The general move is Open selloff ->(very) brief pause -> climb back ->correction
the trick is to get in at the brief pause and get out before correction Since it's such a huge jump I'm thinking 10:15 to get in and 12:30 out
The real question is how much to put in... Last time the span was from 1.5 to 2.5 Gonna need like 3k to make the amount I want to make today easily. if I can snag a 33% climb, I'm golden

camping is definitely better with friends though generally one of the best experiences of my whole life is campin with jan
/moe/ let's all go camping when this is all over and it's safe to fly and stuff
Anno
Though it's also the kind of thing that's a bit much with too large a crowd. Unless you get like a handful of campsites, or if you're out in the total wild spread them out a bit. Otherwise things do get surprisingly tight.
yeah i'd say maybe 6 people is the max even if you do spread out
camping really is the best i want to go camping with jan in washington state the whole time i was there i kept saying "i wish jan were here to see this"
Anno
My childhood neighbourhood does this yearly dads-and-kids-only camping trip where they book like an entire wing of a camping ground a t a provincial park or something. So usually it's just like two families to a campsite so things aren't too cramped. The last night of the trip they drag a bunch of tables to a clearing though and host a big spaghetti dinner for the entire troop. There's probably like a good fifty or so heads there, or that's where the number was last time I went. It was fun enough as a kid but I never made great friends with most people in my neighbourhood so as I got older there was't much incentive to go to something like that anymore. Did get a pretty good experience with camping from it at least though.

Well, these weren't pancakes. But the Polish word for pancake is the same as the word for crepe iirc.

>>843924 yeah it's really the unsettling vibes everything i know about her i learned from ton though and i've really only seen the videos he's sent me but i'm down for eldritch beings
>>843922 yeah i wanted to run the one-shot to help people learn the FATE system because it's a little complicated or like pretty different from d20 based systems it's very narrative based, and the system has this thing called "aspects" which are basically traits a scene or a character or whatever has and a big part of the fun is figuring out how to exploit the aspects available to do wacky stuff the players all have aspects too and the GM can activate those sometimes to make things happen too
there's a good FATE based game that i wanna use for the one-shot called nitrate city https://www.drivethrurpg.com/product/184325/Nitrate-City-o-A-World-of-Adventure-for-Fate-Core >Nitrate City is a place where elements of Film Noir and classic movie monsters combine with explosive results. It’s a place populated by slick vampire private eyes, clever werewolf gamblers, cigarette smoking mummy fatales and deadly hit men from beneath the darkest waters. just bonafide silly shit

that guy i know at work that has world running records did a thing a few months ago where he ran for 6 days straight with only occasional 45 minute naps he ran 300 miles in 6 days
They don't let you get the game without buying the hardware though. Like you can't even get just the game from the eShop. Making your own would only really work if you'd broken yours and needed a replacement or something.
you should also take into consideration that the eldritch thing is a fanbase taking something and having fun with it
as an example, i forget what she said, but it was something like if she wasnt feeling well or had a fever she wouldnt stream or something, but the fever temp she gave was something absurd like 40 c
or being incredibly insistent that human eyes grow back when asked about what would happen if a devil vtuber poked them
>>843974 HHave you seen the outfits wwhwhee ththe women were literally wearing other women strapped onto them?
Kirara 🍄 ／人◕ ‿‿ ◕人＼
>>843972 40c isn't that absurd you would need to go to the hospital for it probably but it's not in like "you will absolutely die" territory
Anno
And plus she's already demonstrated a degree of carelessness towards her own personal wellbeing with extensive streaming sessions. Like these aren't inhuman personality traits but they are not exactly respectable ones.
>>843972 I dunno man, it's one thing if she leaned into the Eldritch thing herself but if it's more the fanbase running with it, then I still don't think it's that great. Like maybe she plays up a character for her streams, but there's still a real person behind her. Them creating some wild fictionalization of her is the same kind of idolation and kinda-delusional mentality that makes people like aidoru otaku or even people in Western culture that worship celebrities so unnerving to me. I'd just rather people treat people how they want to be treated, and keep grounded that they're also just human beans.
ToN
>>843979 it might have been higher then i remember it being ridiculous >>843980 it’s worth noting that these hololives and nijisanjis, while theyre shaped by the person behind them, are originally character concepts, though it’s worth noting while nijisanji has things like a fire drake and a literal shiba dog, lulu’s character bio is just an art student.
lulu has definitely started leaning into it a bit too, her character song with debi debiru is about basically making a cult
If their character concepts are something weird and absurd, that's what I mean by "treat people how they want to be treated". Like they could be a fire drake or a dog or even a sentient Teru Teru Bozu, if that's their character, then the player behind them has probably accepted the image it'll develop. People just ought to be able to be comfortable when they're being entertaining.
Kirara 🍄 ／人◕ ‿‿ ◕人＼
it must be hard spending so much time in character like they do probably run into the same identity issues that undercover cops do sometimes they lose themselves completely
ToN
i’ll make mention of Otogibara Era from nijisanji here, who started as a cutesy baker whose crass personality has seeped througu and completely reshaped the character concept into themselves or something along those lines
and then hololive is hardly characters at all in comparison, they just do what they do
ToN
what im saying here is, while some likely stay true to a character, some are also just genuine, for better or worse.
ToN
they have fun and in turn we have fun, it’s a good time for everyone involved unless you’re really not a fan id say
Anno
Honestly I think while pre-existing cultures in Japan like the aidoru crowd expect their idols to maintain something of a character, for streamers like vtubers it might actually be better to not engage too heavily in that kind of constructed character stuff anyway. Streaming personalities tend to be much better accepted by viewers when they're being natural and, while maybe a bit more extroverted than they might be casually, true to themselves.
FormerRei@mobile
I loathe the idol industry. It's so exploitive.
ToN
i’m going to add here that Hololive is a “virtual idol” company, but despite that they still seem to be mostly having fun
and also allow for th >>843991 that’s what hololive call- oh
anyway in soute of that things like Coco’s absurdity and Matsuri unleashing her r18 twitter hashtag last night still happen, so they probably have more freedom than that would imply
>>843988 actually to uhhhh give whats the word shape to what youre thinking proof anyway fubuki and pekora of hololive are apparently pretty shy or socially anxious but youd never guess it most of the time when they stream
Anno
As an extreme introvert I can vouch for the advantage of avoiding face-to-face conversation through digital communication is a big crutch for making it easier to communicate.
Anno
Also shyness and social energy don't necessarily correlate. Just because I'm shy doesn't mean I can't talk for hours and get visibly excited over things. I'm just less likely to do it around strangers in a physical space.
Me using shy and socially anxious was actually because my information on Fubuki is the shy part and Pekora would be the socially anxious one. So I didn't mean to necessarily mix them together, gomen

Just assuming it's going to be bad out of the gate without seeing a single piece of the actual production is pretty stupid man. Like what evidence do you have that it's going to be bad? And don't tell me "your gut" or anything like that because historically your gut has been full of shit.
i trusr my gut it aligns with my taste un entertainment, and that is all i care

More like because you decide beforehand you're not going to like something you're too obstinate to even slightly accept you might be wrong about something and convince yourself it's always right.
I think it'll be neat to see the martial arts that they derived the Bending techniques from in live-action. There's a lot of potential in that for some really beautiful cinematography.

are you gonna work in a werehouse
Anno
werewolf house it's not a warehouse technically but it's probably what you're thinking of pick up box from truck put box on conveyor pick up box on conveyor put box on truck
Anno
It's gonna be a werehouse before long if Amazon becomes past tense!
I had a girl I liked on Tinder match with me earlier, which in itself is like, a first-time-ever situation. But it's nailing home for me just how socially inept I am because I don't know how to start conversations.
i ask them their favorite video game becausei honestly don't care to continue the conversation if they don't have a good answer
Kirara 🍄 ／人◕ ‿‿ ◕人＼
"do you like music?" is a good one
Anno
"yeah i like all kinds" "i listen to everything"
Anno
>>844164 Yeah she doesn't have much to the profile but her linked Insta has some cute doodles in it. A lot of panda motif and some anime stuff like Rem and Ram and Sailor Moon. Though I already complimented that this morninnnng
Kirara 🍄 ／人◕ ‿‿ ◕人＼
>>844171 and then you say "i hate music. what's your favorite tv show"
Anno
>>844172 if she has rem on her insta you need to tell her she's imporatnt
Kirara 🍄 ／人◕ ‿‿ ◕人＼
comment on it but pretend one of the maids aren't there
Anno
ask her who the blue maid is?
Anno
ASK HER WHO THE BLUE MAID IS
Anno
That's some pretty nuanced humour I worry I'll fuck up trying to make across text conversation ;_;
Anno
remmu ga... dare?
Anno
it's als o way too late for that joke dude it's missed potential for all eternity now
>>844183 they're total strangers what are they gonna do, trace your IP triangulate your phone and shoot you in the face?
Anno
>>844184 That was a remarkably daring woman. Or just oblivious. I don't think many people could intentionally flex like that.
>>844186 I don't really care what they do I'm more trying to avoid giving myself another embarrassing memory when the joke I make falls flat. I'm not a particularly funny guy and I think a lot of people don't really get my humour if they don't know me too well. Plus I get the anxiety behind it isn't really rooted in firm reasoning but I mean, it's still there, still whispering in my ear when I try to think of anything funny or charming.
I did like her, but I don't make enough money right now to help support a kid! What if I said something like that and it increased my bond level with her? >>844193 wow what if she said the same about you?
really though the more you avoid something the more you teach your brain that you can't handle it the only way out of the cycle is to just do it even though it's terrifying just type something in and press send and then put your phone away and don't check it for a bit until you feel chilled out a little it sucks but humans have stupid brains that get out of sorts so unreasonably and sometimes all we can do is say fuck you brain suck a dick
>>844210 Down, probably. Their careers probably aren't directly impacted by the global shutdown but economies everywhere are slowing to a halt and that'll make income pretty much universally reduced. Most artists work in freelance or development cycles and if those aren't in demand -- and nothing is in demand creativity-wise -- they're not getting paid. And people that do commission work probably aren't getting much patronage either, since their usual patrons probably have to be tight with the wallet too.
come to think of it my cousin is a freelance/commission artist >>844212 would be interesting to see some patreon stats etc on how much people have lost income post lockdown
Anno
Aw Slime Isekai's second season got delayed. Not a terribly surprising turn of events but still an unfortunate one.
!C0.PerkELE
I hope they don't rush the last few episodes this time it felt like the last say 3 episodes had like 6 episode full of content in them
!C0.PerkELE
hmm come to think of it, i wonder how will they start it since the next arc kinda just blasts off into high gear, atleast in the manga so starting the anime like that might feel off
Anno
I would expect maybe some anime-original stuff to remind everyone who's who.
And then prompty kick things off into high gear. It's not like the anime's ever been slow-paced after all!
yup but it could have had the student arc in the s2 and started off with that for better pacing but I guess they are rushing forwards to get to the actual meat of the story, that supposedly starts now havn't yead the lns or wns so don't know really
!C0.PerkELE
but there are gonna then be damn dope scenes in the first 6-12 episodes
started reading it first on my phone and something was nagging me but I couldn't but my mind on it now that I resumed it on my laptop, I finally noticed it the paneling/page usage is somewhat... odd cluttered, placing or visual story telling just seems just tad bit off in places, that it in the end makes the reading bit awkward at times
Samu ／人◕ ‿‿ ◕人＼
personally i load manga into My Balls so that my children can read it too
omg i ordered gyudon from this place that recently started delivering and it's amazing best gyudon i've ever had and fried calamari
next time i'll have to order ramen and see how that is
Anno
Nice. I haven't had any Japanese food since the shutdown began. Barely any takeout honestly. Probably something like 24/25 meals I eat is stuff made at home.
!C0.PerkELE
>>844229 in what kind of a box does gyudon or ramen arrive when ordered?
Anno
Probably not a box but a yeah. There's a Chinese take-out container that at least here in Canada is used by -everyone-
Things like this. Pretty much every Asian place that offers take-out uses these. They make for really amazing things to keep if you need containers for food.
But they're also kind of a problem since they're way too hard to automatically recycle so here in Toronto we're not allowed to put them in the recycling.
>>844236 it's plastic, yes? kinda waste in a way, but it is a sturdy container
Anno
>>844242 There's a good reason at least. Recycling here gets collected as a whole, so glass, plastic, paper, etc.; all gets brought to the recycling center in an unsorted bunch. The automatic recycling system then uses some kind of camera and light-based method of sorting plastics at some point in the process, and with black containers like those, the camera doesn't recognize them, so they don't get sorted properly.
i just like the cute girls i like >>844253 its so basic your computer not running it should be basically impossible
Kirara 🍄 ／人◕ ‿‿ ◕人＼
what are hell takers system requirements can i run it without a graphics card
Anno
Probably a potato with a circuit board attached.
Kirara 🍄 ／人◕ ‿‿ ◕人＼
hmm
FormerRei@mobile
>>844253 Yeah It runs on 32 bit wwiwindows However you would have to log onto to steam to play it. I know you don't like doing that so that's the only reason I haven't recommended it to you.
!C0.PerkELE
>>844243 interesting we just have different boxes for everything metal, glass, paper, carton, plastic,bio, "common" they do ofc have to give all of those a sort through to see nothing silly has been thrown in the wrong place and I think they sort common for recyclable materials anyhow
Anno
We used to have systems like that, but I think when they decided they "had" to change to the automated system they decided to just have everything jumbled together.
>>844271 I'm a little bothered by it but its not actually the first furry character in the background of a Skullgirls stage. Although it bothers me that they removed the girl instead of just having them both be there. Although I don't even own Second Encore yet. I still regret not buying a hard copy of it on PS4.
FormerRei@mobile
Oh yeah, any of you guys like Gwar? I'm thinking about getting this. https://gwar.net/products/copy-of-scumdogs-of-the-universe-limited-edition-30th-anniversary-box-set
ToN

FormerRei@mobile
>>844276 No It's the memetal band that dress like alien warriors and kill people in effigy on stage and have fake bodily fluids soray *spray out onto the crowd. *metal band
an armored samurai stuck to your drywall with so much glue
!C0.PerkELE
>>844290 one thing I always note on non-arctic roads is how old they can be without needing replacement
Samu ／人◕ ‿‿ ◕人＼
now we can play a beautiful game
Samu ／人◕ ‿‿ ◕人＼
I wanna play a beautiful game
Anno
Wha'chu gonna play?

i'm getting a legit millionaire client the dude owns an island an actual island my boss wants me to whip him into shape because he's entitled or something
>>844301 bullying millionaires? haha maybe ill have to feel him out first though entitled rich people can't usually take a lot of punishment you gotta treat them gently
there might be riot in NYC tonight or tomorrow peaceful protestors are getting beaten down hard right now another peaceful protest is tommorow tommorow protestors will probably be ready to respond
>>844310 next level thinking if true tho I dunno what you can actually take from a car easily, I would expect actual armaments to be locked down or something, but then again... not to mention the tendency of people to not use those weapon locks etc
Samu ／人◕ ‿‿ ◕人＼
y'know with all the adjusted norms these days it needs to be said that we gotta hang on to our culture of the everyday there are important rituals that aren't written down in any books, only hinted at, and it concerns me that they might be lost
This is pretty gross but also really funny. https://old.reddit.com/r/relationship_advice/comments/gsamf5/me_22f_afraid_of_sex_with_with_bf_25m_because_his/
>>844313 lots of stuff in a cop car isn't bolted down they just throw stuff in there, they usually only secure firearms and cops are dumb as hell, they'll leave their cars out with windows down blocking roads and shit no supervision
>>844319 yeah you can get shields, batons and stuff but firearms do worry me hope they actually follow the rules, I know that htey sometimes lack in these even in the army
Kirara 🍄 ／人◕ ‿‿ ◕人＼
cops are usually strict about firearms mostly because they don't have a lot of room most cops only have their sidearm and a shotgun which is kept in the trunk they keep sidearm on them and shotgun is only taken out during shootouts really if at all there's no room in the car outside the trunk to keep a long gun usually, passenger seat is occupied by another cop or a computer
FormerRei@mobile
The shotgun is also locked iirc. Although the cops where I live I think also have a rifle in their trunks.
Samu ／人◕ ‿‿ ◕人＼
what kinda idiot cop would leave their gun in the car
Kirara 🍄 ／人◕ ‿‿ ◕人＼
yeah they need those in case they gotta kill someone
