Kirara !Sh0sAiDORU
Passover has ended and I kind of want a pizza, but I know pizza will negatively affect my runs. Life is so hard.
Talesof !NuKeSlvmWE
Go to Pie Five and make your fucking favorite ass pizza.
Anno
The fuck is Pie Five.
Kirara !Sh0sAiDORU
1. pie five isn't a thing here 2. that doesn't solve my dilemma
Anno
the fuck is an ass pizza
Talesof !NuKeSlvmWE
Pie Five is a place where you can make personal pizzas and it's fucking great. >>97236 Blaze Pizza? It's not as good. There's also like uh I forget the third around here.
Anno
I can make personal pizzas from the pizza joint I can walk to here.
This is what happens when you live in a college town.
Anno
>>97233 Does even eating a small portion of pizza mess with you?
Kirara !Sh0sAiDORU
It depends on what you mean by mess with me.
If I eat a pizza as opposed to something else, I'll be able to run better than if I had not eaten at all. But pizza is so far from optimal nutritionally that I'm tempted to eat something else so that I can be closer to optimal. I'm not obsessed with reaching that optimal point of performance, but I don't want to be really far from it.
Anno
Does Passover generally mess with eating nutritionally well? You have to understand I have a very vague idea of the event and no personal experience.
Kirara !Sh0sAiDORU
Not really. You can circumvent the restrictions /// the impact the restrictions have on your nutrition by substituting foods. For example, I usually eat a Clif bar in the morning before a run. They have oats so you can't eat them during Passover. So instead of that, I ate bananas in the mornings, which are probably better than the breakfast bars in terms of carbohydrates for running.
I didn't eat that well during Passover this year and even went a bit without eating at all, but I still ate enough to run.
Talesof !NuKeSlvmWE
I bet if you ate a pizza made with more nutritious foods it'd be fine. So feel free to make a wheat flatbread type pizza with sauce, lowfat cheese, and stuff like PINEAPPLES on it
AnnoTalesof !NuKeSlvmWE
My breakfast is OATMEAL And then I eat a CLIF BAR And then I eat LUNCH which is DELICIOUS
Anno
>>97249 You might want to get a healthy meal in you for the next couple days or so, I would think. Just to bright you back around.
Kirara !Sh0sAiDORU
I'm alright nutritionally. I had steak for dinner last night and my consumption today has been normal.
>>97251 The grease is the biggest problem with pizza.
Talesof !NuKeSlvmWE
Get excited for racing tomorrow
Kirara !Sh0sAiDORU
Maybe I'll get some chicken from Publix. That's kind of a good place between healthy and being really good.
Talesof !NuKeSlvmWE
I need to spend my PTO at work because I want a break.
Kirara !Sh0sAiDORU
I'm craving something fatty which is why I want pizza. It's probably because I get a lot less fats during Passover. Balancing things is such a chore. Life can be such a chore, too.
I think it depends. Instruments for learning often are a little quieter or have various types of mufflers for them. A full on performance cello will be loud since it's meant to be played in a performance hall. Most modern cellos also have the necessary guts to be hooked up to an amplifier if needed, too.
I got road raged at today. They got out of their car and started harassing me, too. We almost got in an accident because they tried to turn when I had right of way and then got really pissed about it, I guess.
Yuu
>I want to stay up all night but my cat won't let me
>>97322 Wow, you run into crazies. I've never had anyone get out of their car to confront me.
Kirara☆ !Sh0sAiDORU
You can't stay up all night. You're tired.
>>97323 This is my third time being road raged at and the second time someone has gotten out of their car to confront me.
Their car was stopped in a way that blocked me from getting around them, and there was a car behind me that refused to back up, so I couldn't back out. The person came up and started shouting at me through my window, so I just turned my music up But then they started beating on my window so I started calling the police and made it really obvious that I was dialing 911 and they eventually left.
Yuu
I really hope they do the female protagonist in the re-release this time because I want to give it all up to Yusuke!
>>97324 That's dangerous getting out of cars to fight people. Someone could get shot doing things like that.
Anno
I'm probably gonna go try the written test to get my license renewed tomorrow. So I'll be on the long and unrewarding process to being able to drive again.
>>97325 It's various dangerous. The car behind me wouldn't move so I could escape, either. It really was a little frightening. If she had a gun, I probably would have died.
Anno
I guess that's almost as bizarre for someone to road rage against, hah hah.
Talesof !NuKeSlvmWE
Sounds like you had a rough time Kirara. I would implode in that sort of situation, probably.
Kirara☆ !Sh0sAiDORU
It was really annoying. I don't experience a lot of fear, so I can handle situations like that calmly/stupidly. I think it's natural to panic in that situation.
>>97331 Well, I don't think I would panic immediately. But the fact that you've put the idea of "they could have a gun" in my head has made it a much scarier idea.
Anno
That's one of those bizarre things. In a situation where I was being road raged at, I would never consider they have a gun.
Kirara☆ !Sh0sAiDORU
Oh, yeah. You should always assume a road rager probably has a gun.
Talesof !NuKeSlvmWE
>I should assume every road rager has a gun >Paranoia assumes everyone on the road could get mad at me at any time Aaaaaaa
Kirara☆ !Sh0sAiDORU
Road rage is really uncommon. Most people, even if they have a gun, won't use it when road raging because road rage is a very explosive type of anger and their guns are usually in the glove box or center console. It requires more deliberation to use the gun than most road ragers have during that explosive anger. Most will just start honking angily and maybe get in front of you and try to break check you a couple times.
Yuu
Yeah, road rage is very uncommon. I've never had anyone road rage at me in my life.
月
i got road raged when i was in a really unfamiliar area and there was a secret stoplight it was like really awkward of an intersection and i didn't know it was there so i ran a redlight and someone from the oncoming traffic turned and followed me, two big dudes in a jeep who acted like they were gonna ram me i was really scared and i cried they eventually just yelled at me a lot when i stopped (i shouldn't have stopped) and they turned around and went back
Kirara☆ !Sh0sAiDORU
brake check*
Kirara☆ !Sh0sAiDORU
Yeah, the time I was getting road raged at where they didn't get out of their car - come to think of it, that was also a jeep, how weird - I didn't want to stop next to them because they clearly wanted me to at the red light that was coming up, so I turned onto an off road.
月
i was like 17 i didn't mention that
Anno
>>97336 It's okay Tony just move to Canada, where you never have to assume someone has a gun.
Talesof !NuKeSlvmWE
But if I live in canada I'll have to deal with the moose armada
Anno
They're there for your safety!
Yuu
A deer will mess your car up. I can only imagine what a moose could do.
Kirara☆ !Sh0sAiDORU
>Wait until now to email a professor so I don't have to get into a prolonged thread with her >She immediately replies from her iPhone Please don't be this dedicated to your job.
Anno
>>97346 My grandparents have told a story where they saw an eighteen-wheeler's front completely totaled by a collision with a moose. The moose died in this encounter, but the eighteen-wheeler was unable to drive after the impact. You really don't want to hit a moose.
>>97403 I'm going to Something Wonderful festival in Dallas/Fort Worth for the weekend So I requested the days surrounding because I don't have a better time to use them before November when I get them back.
>>97405 I'm off from today until tuesday, for the paid time off at least I was off yesterday but I still had to go in to do a thing last night, and then I might not be scheduled on wednesday if I'm lucky.

I have about 20 hours of paid time off but I need to use them before it'/s too late.
>>97413 my company just went private so i don't think there will be anything like that
rook
>>97415 yeah pretty much you have some of your pay taken out for a retirement fund and your employer matches up to a certain amount so you get a bit extra if you go for it most employers will also transfer your 401k if you choose to change jobs
privileged bang's first paid vacation
i think the catch is that your retirement fund is in the form of an investment in the company
rook
>>97416 oh yeah didn't panera get bought recently?
privileged bang's first paid vacation
>>97419 yeah by a private holdings company that owns a few other things, notably dunkin donuts and keurig coffee but the reason that we sold was mostly for more control from the administrative heads and less from the greedy stockholders panera's vision for the future involves expenses in the short term for long-term growth and stockholders (especially right now) are pining for short-term gains at almost any cost we want to offer higher quality and build a larger customer base through investing in our workforce and culture where a lot of the stockholders wanted us to lessen our costs and improve efficiency over quality
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
>>97417 So kinda like any retirement fund We have two retirement funds the basic state fund and then any plan you choose to get
rook
why stockholders gotta be such faggos

Anno
>>97420 I accept the use and qualities of stockholders for some fields of economic investment. But I feel stockholders and the food service industry are things that NEVER work out for the quality of service.
privileged bang's first paid vacation
>>97429 Yeah the service industry had a place for it but you're never going to see the best quality coming out from publicly held/controlled companies unless they have a lot of safeguards in place I think this is will overall be a good change for the company The only issue is that now I don't have a chance to hop on the train. If I had bought panera stock when I got hired, I would've made some crazy 180% return or some shit I just gotta keep truckin where I'm at
Talesof !NuKeSlvmWE
Tilde and bang are clearly here but what about the fun people
Yuu
Yes, I'm here too.
privileged bang's first paid vacation
Hi yuu
Talesof !NuKeSlvmWE
I guess that just leaves Kirara Who is probably busy SLEEPING
Anno
He said good night earlier up in the thread. So yeah. Probably.
Talesof !NuKeSlvmWE
Which means I'm right!
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
What if he is pretend sleeping?
Anno
>>97430 You want a case study of how stockholders are terrible for food service, just look at Tim Hortons. They got bought up by the investment company that owned Burger King and went public because of it. And in the time since have declined in quality massively and amongst a lot of Canadians are generally considered a bit of a shitshow now.
They even ditched their previously coffee provider and went with a shittier, cheaper one. (The previous coffee provider then got bought up by McDonald's who coincidentally then suddenly were able to provide much higher quality coffee than they used to.)
Bang's played games with me and look how cool he is...

WHY
YuuTalesof !NuKeSlvmWE
Even when Kirara's asleep he manages to save me from torment, this time it was my taxes.
Yuu
What's that about Kirara and your taxes?
Talesof !NuKeSlvmWE
My return got rejected twice even though I gave it a correct info thing to prove my identity each time, but Kirara found a thing on the site I was using that said if your return was submitted last year after a certain date, just use 0. Turns out, mine was submitted after that date so I used 0 and they just sent an email saying it went through.
月
I have a tax nightmare to share but i have a work nightmare i have to finish before i can share anything
but for some reason i just got a whole gaggle of people that just followed my twitter in the last hour and i haven't tweeted anything in over a month
ToNAnno
I hate it when developers treat me like I'm stupid. I was reinstalling chrome and wanted to put it in a different directory. but nooooo they've taken any input out of the process and it just installs where it wants to. It's so dumb.
Anno
Your name fell off in the process too, Rika.
Yuu
Yes, I reinstalled Chrome.
月
Chrome warns me that i'm in dev mode every time i launch it and it never gives me the option not to show the message anymore it's an obnoxious prompt too it's like HEY YOU ARE IN DEVELOPER MODE THATS FOR IMPORTANT STUFF DONT MESS WITH IT DO YOU WANT TO TURN DEVELOPER MODE OFF and it's just yes or cancel. there's no "No, i know what i'm doing"
Yuu
I guess google just assumes everyone is stupid now that they're hopelessly evil.
月
not evil just hopeless
Yuu
They're evil. They'll harvest all your data. Google knows more about a person than their momma does.
月
There's also a lot of information about Google i really like information
Anno
Knowing information isn't evil.
Yuu
>>97474 It is when you're predatory about it. If a super fast person ran around snooping on everyone through their windows, they would no doubt be seen as an evildoer.
Maria
Don't hate Google just because it's the apex predator and you wish you were
Anno
The information they access is what they're permitted to look at or public.
月
I think calling Google the apex predator is a stretch
Yuu
>>97477 Stalking is a crime. The only difference between google and a stalker is that they stalk every other person alive at the same time they're stalking you.
Anno
And since stalking is a crime, you'd imagine they'd have encountered repercussions somewhere.
Yuu
You have too much faith in the legal system. The law is notorious about being terrible at keeping up with technology. By the time people realized that what google was doing was wrong, they were wealthy enough to protect themselves.
Anno
No it's more I think calling it stalking is an exagerration. Exaggeration even. There's a lot of information I know about people just from osmosis.
Yuu
>>97482 If someone followed you around collecting everything about you by watching you constantly, and when you went "hey stop that" they went "it's publicly available info deal with me following you everywhere" it would certainly be stalking.
Anno
I think you're a bit paranoid if you think Google is intently following you around collecting everything. To use the example i was tr-
Rika let me finish saying things before you talk back.
Yuu
I think you're a bit naive if you think that google isn't intently collecting information on everyone they can.
Anno
Everything about everyone is way too much data. Too much of it is absolutely of no practical value.
I think you're a bit chuuni if you think it will impact your life negatively in a noticeable way
privileged bang's first paid vacation
Also tilde is mad as FUCK right now lol
Yuu
>>97486 So you're making the claim that google hasn't collected a ton of information on pretty much everyone?
>>97487 You could make the same argument to justify peeping on women through the windows at their home.
Anno
>>97488 I get annoyed when I'm trying to get to a point and people cut in before the point concludes.
>>97489 I'm saying a lot of information Google collects is stuff that's floating about. If I get up on stage and say, "hey people I like apple juice" and then someone comes and says "hey bud you like apple juice, I know a discount going on over at this grocer" then I can't really be angry at them.
>>97489 there's so many more interesting things to peep at than women if you were peeping in the first place i would probably peep and see things like how many suits they have in their closet, whether they keep the TV on when they're not in the room, whether they have dirty dishes in the sink or they wash them right away, what bath products they use you know, important information that's marketable, not what their body looks like what am i supposed to do with that information
>>97510 great idea they don't have ziti but they do have baked spaghetti i'll get that
rook
naisu I should make some spaghetti this weekend I've got a bunch of it sitting around
Yuu
>>97511 No human can collect all the information though, and normal people can defend against other normal people. No one can defend against google because it is too big and powerful.
No matter how much you want to lick the boots of your corporate overlords, google is EVIL.
Maria
if you can't beat the bad guys, join them
Anno
But none of the reasons you give are actual evil reasons. For all I can see you're just saying they're evil because you believe they're evil.
And you've told me to not trust anything you say so I guess that's that.
月
>>97514 I think Google can be defended against individuals and small groups can do things that google is too cumbersome and lethargic to do
Anno
I don't believe that anything getting too big is inherently an evil. Nor do I believe that Google in their wide girth are some beneficial organization either. They're a being in the grey realm of morality, just like pretty much 99% of every other being or organization in existence.
Yuu
>>97516 People don't like being spied on. People don't like having giant corporations collecting all the info about them and selling it.
Generally speaking, doing things to people against their will that they don't like is evil.
If I could send a letter to google that said "hey, please don't collect all my info and sell it" and they actually did it, then they would be substantially less evil. My sentiment is hardly unique, there are a LOT of people out there who don't want google collecting all their info, but google is collecting info on them anyway.
Anno
Well I guess it's good for them that Google isn't collecting all their information then.
Yuu
Google is collecting info on everyone, regardless of whether they use google services or not.
Anno
Just like how you're collecting information on everyone you come in contact with, regardless of whether they use your services or not.
Yuu
I'm not as effective as google is. I also wow you just yelled at me for going too fast and here you are
I also don't sell information I collect to corporations. I also would happily comply with anyone's wishes for me to not pay any attention to them, which google doesn't do.
I think you are seriously underestimating the impact of the magnitude at which google operates.
I drink water and that's fine. but if I were capable of drinking all of the water, that would be an evil act because everyone else would die.
Anno
Again, being effective is no indicator of being evil.
>>97523 Information and physical matter are incomparable in consumption.
Yuu
>>97527 My argument still works, despite your nitpicking.
Most people would not object to me knowing one or two things about them. Most people WOULD object if I were capable of easily finding out everything about them.
月
>>97527 uh excuse me i happen to be an expert on this subject and i disagree
Anno
You can't drink all the information Moon it just doesn't work that way.
Yuu
You seem to be ignoring what I said, does that mean you have no objection with the argument?
Maria
Imagine the power you'd have if you had access to googles databse
月
>>97532 >i hacked into the system, time to start downloading all of google's information >download started, ETA 17,640 years
Anno
>>97528 Google can't find out everything about people. They can only find out what is publicly available or what they're permitted to look at. >>97535 But that's not everything.
Yuu
>>97534 Google can find out enough about people that they would object to google knowing so much about them. Yeah don't get autistic on me. This isn't about knowing everything, this is about orders of magnitude. Google can find out enough about people that they would object to it, there is plenty of evidence of people objecting to the fact that google knows so much about them.
privileged bang's first paid vacationAnno
>>97535 Then why do you jump to everything at every given chance?
Maria
>>97533 >hacking into the system >not just becoming the ceo of google >or alternatively becoming a politician and establishing a legal basis for you to access googles database at will You gotta play the long game with this sorta thing
Yuu
>>97537 You're ignoring my argument again, does that mean you concede?
Anno
>>97539 The fault is not in Google for the information being available. I think it's kind of humourous that people stamp their feet at it when a system designed to gather information gathers information.
月
>>97538 step up your game son why not just let google collect all your information and store it in their database, and you selectively expose information in such a way that it encodes an informational contagion to probe the information that is in the very database they're putting this block of information from you and you can use a dev entrance by probing google's algorithms after it's been contaminated. all the data's still there and useful, but you've now made it readable
Yuu
>>97540 So if you see no evil in collecting information that is easily available, do you think that stalking is not an immoral act? That it shouldn't be a crime? All a stalker does is collect information that is easily available.
Anno
Stalking isn't inherently a crime, though it can lead to a prosecution.
>>97545 alright i'll get started on the plans, meet up with me four years ago and we'll get started
privileged bang's first paid vacationYuu
>>97543 So you don't think staking is an immoral act?
Maria
>>97546 Okay hang on I just need to build my time machine
Anno
Sometimes I Google things that I'm not even interested in, just to throw Google off
privileged bang's first paid vacationAnno
>>97548 By itself it is neither a moral nor immoral act because it is defined by the reasons for stalking. Is stalking a criminal to determine their crimes immoral?
>>97552 Okay, let's define things a little further.
You don't think stalking someone against their will for your personal gain is an immoral act?
privileged bang's first paid vacationMaria
>>97553 First you need to establish the inherit value in morality before you can apply it as a vlue
Yuu
>>97552 Well then there's no point in arguing because we'll never agree. I think that stalking people against their will is an immoral act.
Anno
So should we not stalk suspected criminals?
Yuu
We should not stalk innocent people, which is what google does. Are you trying to claim that google only collects information on criminals?
月
but if they're not innocent it's cool, so no issues with us stalking google back
privileged bang's first paid vacationAnno
>>97558 Actually, it's that I don't really think what Google does is stalking in the first place. Because it isn't a human entity behind what collects the information. It's a computer system.
rookYuu
>>97561 What is different between what google does and stalking? Both are just collecting publicly available information about someone.
If I form a LLC to stalk someone, then it's not stalking?
月
isn't that just a private detective do those still exist i bet that's not a very lucrative career now that there's the internet
Anno
They still do. I'm not sure if they're as rampant in Western culture though.
>>97563 I'm sure if you created a company that employed computer programs to trawl public information channels to aggregate information, you'd have every freedom to.
Maria
How does google collect the information again? Because as far as I know it does it with what you enter into its searches That's willingly submitted information
>>97567 how does that work? what do they do? i mean in the physical world where you'd have an office and be paying taxes i can think of some black hat spaces where they could find a home but i mean the normies
Yuu
>>97565 If I set up a camera outside someone's home, it would be fine because it's not a human collecting the information?
>>97568 They're good for collecting information. You work Well you want to work in law, they get used there a lot. If you want photos of the hood but don't want to get shanked by urban youths, you can send a PI down there to take pictures for you.
Anno
>>97569 You'd probably have a harder time with that since it concerns private property.
privileged bang's first paid vacation
collecting information about people might be on the worse side of the neutral point on the vast complicated spectrum of morality but looking at my dick and finding out what websites i browse are two completely different worlds away from eachother in terms of how much i give a fuck
Yuu
>>97570 It doesn't have to be private property. You can set it up in a bush across the road.
Anno
Looking at private property.
privileged bang's first paid vacation
The servers we access aren't owned by us It's just a fact of life that people will be looking at things done in public, and the internet is a public space except where it isn't, much like society
Yuu
>>97573 It's publicly available information. You can see their house from the road.
Anno
>>97574 Yeah pretty much. You can get upset at people all you want for seeing the things you put in the public eye, but there's no explicit wrongness in them seeing it.
privileged bang's first paid vacation

>rika in the information age
Yuu
You guys are just cucks lapping up google's hot juicy sauce right off your face
I'm kind of shocked at you, Bang. I'd not figured you for a corporate boot-licker.
Anno
Oh man look at that VICIOUS response.
privileged bang's first paid vacation
>>97579 Privacy is not something you can expect from others, it's something you have to forge for yourself Just like in physical society, we have our lives that we know everyone can see if they want to, and then we have our secrets You just need to know how to keep things secret, and we don't live in a world where the internet is reliably secret unless you go through the effort to make it so
Yuu
>>97576 Well, that's where we disagree. I think that collecting a ton of information about a person, to a degree that they would be uncomfortable with, against their will, is an immoral act. Which is why I have a problem with stalking.
月
i kind of agree with her on that cuck comment yall some messed up white ass mothafuckas be that trustin of corporations
Anno
i just hope they dont kill our privacy in years to come
Anno
I just don't really care. Apathy is pretty much my general regard towards what people know about me. Be it Google or individual people.
privileged bang's first paid vacation
trusting? what do i trust them with that i care about?
>>97587 No? But what are you gonna do about it? Complain? The only answer to problems bigger than yourself is to adapt and overcome.
月
>>97585 >I dont care, so i'm going to argue that everyone else shouldn't care also because it's fine
Anno
No, I'm going to argue because it's fun. There's absolutely no chance I'd ever convince Rika of anything, she's too set in her ways. I mean so am I but the point is. It's fun to talk over these things.
Yuu
>>97588 That wasn't what this conversation was about. It was about whether what they do is an immoral act. I don't leave my car unlocked downtown either, that doesn't make breaking into a vehicle okay.
privileged bang's first paid vacation
>>97591 Oh, well then yeah I agree it's immoral. But I think morality is more of a distraction than anything else. It's nice to do things in a moral way when you can and most of the time morals work out for the better but sometimes life isn't pretty
Anno
what do y'all use? Startpage or duckduckgo ?
Anno
Chrome.
privileged bang's first paid vacation
On the computer I use for almost everything? Chrome. I'm deep into the google. But then there's other devices that i have which are more or less private and secure
Anno
firefox
月
chrome for work because i work on a web browser editor instead of a standalone editor
Yuu
>>97593 I use Chrome for moe and Firefox for most other stuff. I agree with Bang in respect to the idea that it's kind of pointless caring about privacy because there's nothing you can do.
I still think what google does is an immoral act, but you can't really escape it. Kind of like how ISPs and power companies are assholes but you can't avoid them either.
Anno
That wasn't the question if you look at the second line >>97600 Let me finish then
Anno
Yeah but you were asking about two fairly irrelevant search engines.
月
>>97598 yeah memphis electric fucked me out of about 400 dollars for nothin maybe some of it was my use, but it was mostly their fuck up on the readings and a chunk of that is late fees they tacked on while having the account on hold to be investigated for two months between the time wasted with them on the phone, work i needed to do, and the stress, it was easier just to cave and less taxing on me
月
>>97600 did this nigga just call duckduckgo irrelevant
Anno
You betcha.
月
what a stupid cunt
Anno
>>97600 Furthermore there's nothing in there to suggest browsers You could have just told what search engine you do use
>>97606 No I don't think you understand. You were agreeing with me the whole time but too focused on being sassy to realize that. Now tell me how to big text.
privileged bang's first paid vacation

I'll remember this next time you want something from me.
wow there's a big fat juicy contract that does specifically market research stuff and it'd pay 75% more than my current pay but there are people with like decades of experience applying i'm just a dumb kid in comparison but i really want it that would be a lot less stressful, higher pay, more enjoyable, and a good career boost
i should probably put something more witty than 'cursor' though

people sure use the opening "Like I said," a lot when they're about to say things that they never said in the discussion prior to that point this is a recurring theme
I wonder what it feels like now to be a Cubs fan. They won the World Series, tore apart the previous identity their team had...and now what?

the kid's just sobbing uncontrollably and the mom's like "What is it?" and he just looks into the camera crying and says "Dad and i are going to wrigley field" i know he's super stoked and that's cool but it looks like he's devastated it's amusing to me

How is everyone?

I'm all right. Well not all right but alright.
It's kind of weird that all right and alright mean the same thing but when you look at "all right" as a combination of words it doesn't mean the same thing.
I've been doing a good job of keeping myself from sleeping when I want to sleep lately. Which just makes me sleep when I don't want to sleep.

Kirara, when you take melatonin to help fall asleep, about how long does it take for the effect to work?
Kirara☆
I always take it an hour before bed, but it usually kicks in in about 30 minutes. When you first start taking it, it knocks you out quick, though.
Anno
I see. Would the effect possibly be modified by body physique, or things like your heart condition?
Kirara☆
Not really. Melatonin is naturally secreted by the body in response to circadian rhythm and absence of light, so it's really just adding what modern technology is stopping you from getting normally, the body doesn't normally secrete more based on physique
Generally people have to find a sweet spot with melatonin that works best for them though Usually like 1mg-20mg Somewhere in there I take 10-20mg
Anno
Hm, I see. All right, thanks.

finally done with work 4am fuck >>97784 the amount the body produces naturally is in the range of micrograms, but it's like a drip release i remember hearing some medical opinions on the matter and some said that the body doesn't really use most of what you take in orally by a pill anyway, that most of it just gets flushed i don't know if that's true but i think about it from time to time there's also the counterbalance that you're not really producing it yourself if you're ingesting it from an external source, so there might be some balance in that sweet spot of finding enough to stimulate sleepfulness, but // my brain's a little tired i just worked for 16 hours straight

Tim Pool is a journalist, somewhat well known Sargon of Akkad is a youtuber who makes political videos mostly talking shit about the latest weird stuff to come out of the left Things like Universities introducing race-based segregation and whatnot

heat street was one of the first clients i got assigned to for their video stuff i got to see a lot of her in filming

that was way before heat street wasnt it
Kirara☆ !Sh0sAiDORU
oh yeah i just checked i thought heat street had been around longer than it has
月
nope it got big fast when i first started on it, it wasn't even live yet there wasn't even a landing page on the site
Kirara☆ !Sh0sAiDORU
so i guess she was already kind of crazy when you got to see her in filming
月
I know she never needed to do a second take on a script never even a stutter or screw up it was pretty impressive
Kirara☆ !Sh0sAiDORU
she's an impressive person a big part of the problem is that she's so competent though
she was the first person to report on the FISA warrant that trump was wiretapped or whatever, like three months before trump got wind of it and flipped his lid when everyone got wind of it and started reporting on it, she got a ton of attention and i think the validation of that finding validated her belief that she was a good investigator and so other stuff she found must be right so she drew herself into this absurd web of conspiracy and justified her belief in it by saying she's a good investigator now she's in so deep she can't even see reality
people still believe in Pizzagate so it's like a normal human condition.
月
>>97869 well that's about the time she stopped running heat street isn't it she launched it, got it rolling, and then stepped off maybe this is just how she is when she doesnt have that focus to outlet it
Kirara☆ !Sh0sAiDORU
looks like she reported on the FISA warrant in late November and left Heat Street in mid-December

have you read the Flash Thompson Venom comics?
『sk』
Nope I've read very little comics Red Son and this now is like... it
Kirara☆ !Sh0sAiDORU
you should check them out, the first 20 or so issues at least they're about Flash Thompson, the bully from Peter's childhood, receiving the modified Venom symbiotic suit

Flash Thompson is a war vet in it, his legs are amputated He tries to use the Venom suit to be a hero It's a really good story (until the writer got switched)
『sk』
Oh is it anything like when Carnage became Spider Man?
i think i have the comics i can probably upload them somewhere for you if you want
『sk』
I can probably find them myself But I'll let you know if I can't
Kirara☆ !Sh0sAiDORU
alright it's Venom (2012) issues 1-22 are really good
after issue 23 they changed the writer to a retard that thought it'd be interesting if venom got possessed by the devil instead of writing a story about a guy struggling to control an evil suit and do good
『sk』
>venom possessed by the devil but why though
『sk』
Doc Oc as Spidey is fun because he's obviously gonna do a lot of shit Spidey wouldn't But the devil controlling Venom? That's... not gonna change much in what he does or anything Isn't Venom just fucking rage anyway

but the part where he's crying and the mom's like "What is it?" and he's just sobbing "Me and dad are going to wrigley field" and she's like "Who are the cubs playing against?" and he looks down and sobs again and in the most depressed tone "The saint louis cardinals" goddamn brutal

Kirara☆ !Sh0sAiDORU
like where does 2 go where does 14 go how am i supposed to show a difference between a score and /// score of 2 and 5?
Kirara☆ !Sh0sAiDORU
like a score below 35 doesn't even matter like it's so low you don't even need to look at it so i'd understand if it were like that, and you aren't supposed to mark that because it's so low

until i make a bigger name for myself as a market research i should just go onto dating websites and find some dates go to the park and a cafe with people on a date for like 2 hours and just bring my market research scripts and ask them questions that's like 20 bucks for two hours of good interviewing instead of a 200 dollar honorarium

so it'd be more focused around figuring out what they're interested in, then probing about it and asking them questions and this is something they're so intimately in tune with too, so they'd just be like >wow, it's so nice to just have someone who's willing to listen >I enjoy hearing your opinions.

haha i would be pretty weirded out if someone asked me stuff like that on a date if it was that specific at least

nah i wouldnt do that. i was just thinking it was kind of a funny concept i bet i could write a skit about it, a market researcher interviewing someone and the girl they're interviewing mistaking it for a date that could be a pretty good comedy skit
if i was actually going on a date with another market research // researcher i would totally do that though >end of the night >drive him/her home >Please fill out this survey on how you feel this date went on a scale of 1-5. If it's not a 5, what could have been changed to make it a 5? Please be descriptive.

We don't disappoint, just straight to the point.
this is probably the most surreal point in history, in the early days of the internet where everyone was able to open up a website marketing either simple products or information with little or no competence, and have a marketbase that was receptive to it i think ten thousand years from now, there will still be people looking back at this shit and wondering what the fuck like this is embedded in there for eternity. the servers could go down, but the data itself is more valuable than the servers cost for any forward-thinking organization
