maybe i'll order a pizza and take it easy
don't relax too much, you know what happens when you're too relaxed
>>79909399same princess! i ordered tendies instead though
>>79909430what's gonna happen?>>79909489what sauce did u get?
>>79909500sriracha mayo but it was extra :c so ill just mainly use ketchup and mayowhat pizza did you get?
I ordered some nuggies from MOS Burger. They were pretty good.I'm not sure what to do for New Years. I'll probably just watch a livestream of the fireworks. I think it's already too late to go in person and I don't really want to go alone.I wonder how many times this thread can celebrate it.
>>79909518what stream are you going to watch anon? :D this feels like a nice comfy thread already
>>79909530https://www.youtube.com/live/NpDXBwPkr2wThese threads are usually very comfy!
>>79909513haven't ordered a pizza yet, but i'm thinking something simple like ham and cheese>>79909518well there are at least 4 timezones here so i think at least 4 times definitely
>>79909399I wish I could order a pizza. I'll try to take it easy regardless
>>79909399https://voca.ro/1j1u8eoPsjMy
Looks like the firework stream's started. ~20 minutes until the display. At the moment someone is singing a little song.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NpDXBwPkr2w
still haven't heard back, i guess they are busy after all. new years alone it is.>>79910372>Looks like the firework stream's started.the fireworks there really are spectacular>>79910167>looks like i'm not gonna be ordering pizza because now we have a bunch of meat the we're gonna cookwhat kind of meat do you have to cook with?
>>79910412>new years alone it is.I'm not alone because I'm spending it with you guys! So you can do the same.>>79910412>the fireworks there really are spectacularLondon's are usually pretty good. But I guess the Chinese know what they're doing with fireworks.
>>79909399It's new years, I'm going to drink a couple beers, watch anime and play doom!
Happy new year!Remember to take it easy in 2025!
Test test test am I unbanned? Just passing by.First of all, Happy New Year in advance just in case, it's been plenty of months but you are still here and trying to get by each and new day. Hopefully next year will be a little better for you, even if just a little.As one of your new year goals, make it about leaving this place behind; it's not worth it to stay here despite the fact that, for some of you, this is the only social place. You'll do better by being out of a place that will slowly corrode your souls. It's not that serious.Just live your day, try to be a better, genuine and honest person and even if you struggle, keep trying.
>>79910720some of us have nowhere else to go.
>>79910735I'll pass something I can't remember where I read: "Don't drink from a swamp just because you are thirsty". I have nowhere else to go either and I thought of this place as my only shore, but the more years passes the more I see how toxic it is for you, it's very subtle at times.Try to not internalize whatever slop or pill they feed you here; as I said, just be yourself and genuine and ignore whatever culture people establish here. The world is different from what is being portrayed and, overall, that's just exaggerated niches. You can pick the people you want around and the places you want to be in.
>>79910820i'd rather die of dysentry than thirst at this stage
>>79910735In blood meridian a guy at a bar literally gets stabbed there but he doesn't leave because he asks "where would I go"
>>79909399Well easy does it
>>79910828I can't force you to do otherwise, I can only pass a suggestion from a place of good will. I drank from the swamp so much, that now I can't get anywhere close to it--double edged blade for sure.I hope your situations will improve and you'll be able to drink from the creek's crystal waters at least.
>>79910180I was gonna keep it simple and pick ham and cheese, but i'm gonna make some borgs instead. I wish I could try a Chicago style pizza one day though>>79910372>>79910510here's 2 another take it easy year!>>79910484what anime r u gonna watch?>>79910840indeed!>>79910720r u gonna try 2 leave this place as well?
>>79910879there really is nowhere, this place is my last resort. it would take a miracle for thing to improve.
>>79910412>still haven't heard back, i guess they are busy after all. new years alone it is.maybe u can meet them a bit after the new years? My frens said they're gonna be available a bit later in january>what kind of meat do you have to cook with?beef
>>79910938>maybe u can meet them a bit after the new years? My frens said they're gonna be available a bit later in januaryi hope so. i was just.. maybe wishing that we could see the fireworks together.>beefhow are you preparing it?
>>79910935I get it, I really do, I didn't manage to have a circle either irl or online. I don't fit and I'm beginning to pay more attention to how people behave: I'm still friendly and I'm very tolerant but, for example, the last (online) circle I was coping with was full of hypocrites who were feeding on each other's venom. This happened at the beginning of this year, and it took a while to break the habit of checking those spaces (though I do get jumpy when I get a notification because I'm not used to it ever). As much as I have presence around people, I'm really on my own. Remember: being alone and being lonely are two different things, don't misunderstand them because people tend to misinterpret.As for the miracle, yeah... I guess we can only be patient and move towards the right direction.>>79910934>r u gonna try 2 leave this place as well?*shrug* This thread has always been a bunker from the rest of the board, beside the regulars I bet some people do appreciate it. I don't check 4chan as often anymore and it's usually just for a couple of news on other boards, since I don't have other spaces anymore.
>>79911311i don't misinterpret. i'm not alone. i'm lonely.
Well, tis' the last day till 2025. Today I finally resolved my ongoing conflict with voices in my head screaming at me for being "sexist" as I finally found a concrete proof that Howdie is a man (on tumblr of all places). If anyone was to ask me on this topic I will have all evidence ready at hand. Forewarned = forearmed. Now I can rest easy knowing that in the end my schizo ramblings were the truth.And I also love Randal and his family. But mostly Randal. Perfect 2D entities.
>>79909399Do it! that's exactly what I'm doing tonight. Nice and comfy. Nobody else around to worry me. Just me, pizza, soda, and 90s Simpsons episodes. Have a good one.
>>79909399Take it easy in the he next year
>>79910934>here's 2 another take it easy year!And to you! When is midnight for you? >>79911385Happy new year, anon. I'm glad you found an answer to your slightly stalker-ish question before the year's end. >>79911390Nothing beats 90s Simpsons. What are your favourite episodes?
>>79911702I love most any of them from season 2-9 honestly. I was watching Lady Bouvier's Lover' recently. The one where Grampa tries to court Marge's mom, and has to fight Mr Burns for her hand in marriage. I love the random shit they used to do and didn't mind being a little edgy. Shame what happened to the show, but all good things come to an end I suppose.
>>79911336>i'm lonelyAssuming we mean the same thing, that's an awful feeling. I hope it'll get better in the next year for you, however jaded or desperate you might be right now.
>>79911772>I love most any of them from season 2-9 honestly.Me too. I've probably seen all of those episodes dozens of times by now and I usually watch at least one every week. Being a Simpsons writer during that era must have been the best job in the world.>didn't mind being a little edgyI find it quite quaint that it was considered an edgy show at the time. It seems so tame now.>all good things come to an end I supposeI wish it just got cancelled so we don't have to see them parade its corpse around. It's weird having the image of the show in my head be so different to what it actually is.
>>79911921Nice! I used to watch Skinner's sense of snow' over and over when I was a kid because I only had that 1 season on DVD, and it was my favourite episode. I know almost every line from it. It reminds me of better times. I try to forget it's still going honestly. Especially since Apu got cancelled, that was the final straw for me. He was one of the most respectfully portrayed stereotypes in a show filled with them. Chief Wiggum is probably the most offensive if anything. I'm not one of those "it died when the Armin Tamzarean episode came out" people, but it definitely IS dead now lol
>>79911986I like Skinner a lot and I feel myself turning into him as I get older. The one where he becomes a NEET hits a little too close to home. My favourite episode is probably Homer Goes to College. I just really like the jokes in that one. >Especially since Apu got cancelled, that was the final straw for me.That always struck me as odd. Apu is one of the most fleshed out and sympathetic side characters. And I find the episode where he gets married very sweet. They did him dirty. It's a shame a similar thing happend with Futurama because I liked that a lot, too. Until the reboot I would have said it was better overall.
I hope you have an amazing year anons, remember we love you so so so so much
>>79912079Lol I get you anon, my friend has become skinner at age 30. I am more like Comic Book Guy now. I thought the same thing, Apu always came across as portrayed sympathetically and as a '3D character' not just some Indian dude who works in the convenience store. They even challenged stereotypes like when Homer is at his apartment and he puts on a record and it's random yelling and Homer winces (prompting us to think it is traditional Indian music), but Apu goes "oops it's on the wrong way round", then then becomes smooth jazz. Like they were building it up to be stereotypical joke but then tipped it on its head. I think cancelling him of all characters is bonkers. What's the new Futurama like? I forgot they rebooted it desu
>>79911886i'm desperate and it hurts. desperation is ugly, which makes me more desperate, what a cycle
>>79912210>I am more like Comic Book Guy nowA fat, sarcastic Star Trek fan? You must be a devil with the ladies!>I think cancelling him of all characters is bonkersAt least he's not been retroactively removed like the Michael Jackson episode>What's the new Futurama like?Genuinely awful. The first time it got rebooted a a lot of the episodes were stinkers but it also had some of the best episodes. There was nothing good this time. Just a lot of very dated references. But I guess that's what happens when you need to rehire writers 10 years after the last season.It hurts to say but Billy West is getting too old to be Fry at this point, but it's nowhere near as bad as Julie Kavner playing Marge. Just let her retire...
>>79911702Thanks. Personally I wouldn't call myself a "stalker" because all the info I gather is public. I simply want to use to prove that people believe in the stupidest assumptions.
>>79912346Fat and sarcastic, but mostly a history nerd more than into sci-fi stuff. And anti-social and almost a wizard too now.Worst. Sex-life. Ever.It's a shame Futurama sucked, I loved how zany and random it used to be. It's a very common thing nowadays with goyslop media, they just throw references to old eps and stretch it out with recycled garbage. Using nostalgia as the main ingredient over genuine substance, instead of occasionally as it should be used. I heard Julie Kavner is due to retire very soon, I couldn't believe how old she was when I googled her. That shit makes me feel very old. Like how it's been 35 years since it first aired for example. Feels like it should be 20 odd still.
>>79910968We're gonna make steak and burgers>>79911702In about 2 hours and 15 mins>>79911311>*shrug* This thread has always been a bunker from the rest of the board, beside the regulars I bet some people do appreciate it. I don't check 4chan as often anymore and it's usually just for a couple of news on other boards, since I don't have other spaces anymore.U should post here more often then! I do hope this place is comfy 4 all.>>79911390Old Simpson stuff is goodI used 2 binge tree house of horror episodesMaybe I should do that again...>>79911385R u a schizo?>>79912082I hope u have an amazing year as well!
>>79912307Yeah it's an awful feeling; personally I'm both desperate and jaded. I crave deep connection but at the same time I've been lonely for so long, that I tell myself "What's a few years more?", and feel like I wouldn't get or enjoy a chance if given. But then I think "Damn, this is my next 60 years..." and I fall in a pit of sorrow that brings such an ache in my chest I can't even describe. Because I also remember how lonely I've been in my life and the cycle tends to repeat, to feed on itself, until eventually it's only a deafening numbness.I pushed the argument of not misinterpreting being alone and loneliness, because I read someone say that one has to do everything in their power to not be lonely, otherwise they can't complain. It implied being alone rather than loneliness, to me, because I can definitely search people so to not be alone, but a connection? That's not granted even amongst the millions of people.
>>79912451>R u a schizo?I mean, I have all the syptomps indicating schizotypal/schizoid personality disorder so. But the haters will be mad that being schizoid gave me cool psychic powers and power of fantasy instead of making me a serial killer or something. Ranfren gang stay strong.
>>79912357Hopefully you can put some internet arguments to rest, in that case>>79912428>It's a very common thing nowadays with goyslop media, they just throw references to old eps and stretch it out with recycled garbageI feel like culture has just kind of ended, in a sense. Like we entered the new millennium and said "yes, canon of things to reference will do" and we haven't gone any further than that. We're not allowed to take risks anymore, despite the few novel ideas we get usually being celebrated.>I heard Julie Kavner is due to retire very soonThat's some good news, at least. I'm sure she's getting paid well but she shouldn't be spending her twilight years wrecking her voice.>Feels like it should be 20 odd still.Realising how old stuff I used to watch as a kid is makes me feel ancient. Even some YouTube videos I remember came out 17 years ago.>>79912451>In about 2 hours and 15 minsPost the fireworks stream here if there is one
>>79909399I'm apparently gonna get quesadillas today. There's two streams I'm looking forward to too. Gonna be a nice day.>>79909518Very nice. Can never go wrong with nuggies. At least you'll be nice and comfy.>>79910412You've got us so you're not so alone, right? Happy new years, fren. Hope you're doin' well aside from the solitude irl.>>79911385Vindication is an empowering thing. Happy new years, fren.>>79912544I mean there was a schizoid serial killer and there have been schizotypal serial killers too I imagine. I remember one serial killer from California worked with a rather normal accomplice and they'd do sadistic acts and kill people together. Something like that anyhow. Found them while waiting my 15(30*, because I had my VPN on the first time) minutes to post https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lawrence_Bittaker_and_Roy_NorrisHave a whole gallery of odd cave critters from a chemotrophy based cave ecosystem in Romania. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Movile_CaveOh also I ordered a digital water testing pen so I can test for pH, salinity and TDS in water. Some duckweed too so I can start the process of torturing snails to make them into super snails.
>>79912837>Can never go wrong with nuggies. Sometimes when I order fries they arrive kind of soggy, but it didn't happen this time. Now I'm munching on some pocky.>At least you'll be nice and comfy.I'm pretty comfy. Waiting for the call in a few hours from my parents when they celebrate new year. How far away is it in Florida? Does your state have a big fireworks display?
>>79913412I've never had pocky before, but it always looked nice. Sweet potato fries are also pretty good, mix them with cinnamon, salt and some sugar and they're a great dessert. As for the celebrations, most of it is just people launching off their own fireworks at their own parties. I remember a nearby bridge to me as a kid had their own dedicated fireworks show that you could see. I think they launched the fireworks from a boat, so nothing was in the way of the viewing.
>>79912451>U should post here more often then! I do hope this place is comfy 4 all.I definitely posted here.
>>79910412How did you meet your fren and why do you like them
>>79913467>I've never had pocky before, but it always looked niceIt's nice but it's just a thin biscuit covered in chocolate. Not worth importing, but they're pretty cheap here.>most of it is just people launching off their own fireworks at their own partiesMy family would do that when I was a kid because we were too young to stay up until midnight. We probably stopped around the financial crisis, now that I think about it. Fun times.
happy new year everynyan!!!!>>79912837nicehappy new year, fren!>>79913412happy new year Eiki anon!>>79912544happy New year!I am schizotypal so we're kinda similar>>79912593no stream but i did watch the fireworks just outside our house
>>79913730I see, I see. There were these kind of rolled chocolate cookie before that I've had around here. I can't remember the name but they were pretty good. It's been ages since I had them but they weren't too expensive. Came in a nice tin too. I've only ever done fireworks with family once as a kid, it was fun to throw those little poppers around. I loved that as a kid.>>79913745Happy new year, fren o7. I imagine it just ticked over for you in Europe now.
>>79913745>happy new year everynyan!!!!happy new year, guya. here's to taking it easy for another year ^^>>79912837>Happy new years, fren. Hope you're doin' well aside from the solitude irl.happy new years to you as well, it's nice to see you around some more. but sometimes we want the kind of company you can only get in person.>>79913681>How did you meet your fren and why do you like themno datamining allowed! if you know the word fren then you probably already know the background.
>>79913814True, although being around people in person is pretty tense and anxiety inducing for me so the desire isn't that strong for me. I do hold out hope that I'd find a girl one day who I can feel comfortable around but that's asking for the impossible.Have a cute moth to help raise your spirits.
>>79913745Happy new year Kaguya anon! May you take it easy in 2025!>>79913764We had bonfire night in the UK so we used to have some fireworks when I was a kid. I remember it always being very cold outside. Sparklers were pretty fun too.
>>79913990wew, never that cold here. For some reason it tends to not be so bad around New Years, but before that it can be really cold and afterwards it will be too. July the 4th is also a nice time for fireworks but it's so hot and even at night. I would gladly embrace the cold if I could have it ):.
>>79913515then post even more often!happy new year!>>79913814>>79913990I hope ur gonna take it easy with me frens!>>79913764how long until it's new year 4 u as well?
>>79913814>no datamining allowed!That's a shame. I want to knkw how to meet people.>if you know the word fren then you probably already know the background.I don't.
>>79914021Just another 6 hours for me. Quesadillas are off for today, it's not replaced with nuggies. Most comfortable.>>79914165I'm not them, but are you just curious about how more socially reclusive people make friends and what they like?
>>79914192>are you just curious about how more socially reclusive people make friends and what they like?More or less, yeah. I want a strong friendship. I see many anons here (like the person I replied to who posts the haniwa 2hu I forget her name sorry) write such sweet things about their friends that they love (by love I don't necessarily mean romantic). I just think it's really nice. I want a connection like that, and to find one like that I have to know where to go. I've been trying so hard to no avail. Nice, casual friends made who I do appreciate- but no deep connection or close bonds. I just think "wouldn't it be nice if someone cared about me enough to write about me like that?" and vice versa. Sorry if I wrote too much or sound weird.
>>79914256No worries, you don't sound weird and you didn't type too much either. I wish I had a really good answer for where to look, but I guess I can only really give an answer as for what to look for. Good friends who you form a close bond with come with time and you need to endure and experience things with them for the bond to really grow. You'll know who's a great candidate for a really close friend when they really enjoy talking to you and you just feel happy to talk back to them. Do your current friends have a lot in common with you? Do you worry about how they might see you, seeing as you're here, or did you meet them from here?
>>79914256>see many anons here (like the person I replied to who posts the haniwa 2hu I forget her name sorry) write such sweet things about their friends ah, i stopped posting about them in here a while ago though, you've been lurking for a while eh? but this character is mayumi :3>I just think "wouldn't it be nice if someone cared about me enough to write about me like that?" and vice versa. Sorry if I wrote too much or sound weird.it doesn't really sound weird but it's never really that straightforward. i'm just really.. clingy for lack of better words. the kind of affection i give isn't often desired normally.>>79913840>Have a cute moth to help raise your spirits.that's a cute moth indeed! i think that being around the right person can make even the most anxious person more relaxed.>>79914021i'll keep taking it easy!!!!
>>79914445I'm glad you find him cute, rosy maple moths are even bred by some people and it's so hard to find pink insects. You also can't go wrong with cute domestic silk moths, they're extra fluffy and have such cute little eyes. Plus they make the silk for our sheets and such.As for girls and such, girls aren't really interested in weird, autistic guys -- especially not NEET ones. So for now, the moths get my love.
>>79914295Thank you for your reassurance anon. And thank you very much for response to me. I think we've talked slightly before anon. I remember you liking moths and animals.>you need to endure and experience things with them for the bond to really grow. Yes... that's one thing I have a problem with. Things like that can't be forced. When I think of good friends I've had in the past (just about 2) I think I became close to them naturally. But I remember I also got along with them well enough from the getgo. Somewhat of an instant connection. I haven't had that type of feeling in years. I just don't know what to do. Feels like so much just comes down to chance and fate. Lady Luck is very shy and she's not always nice.>when they really enjoy talking to you and you just feel happy to talk back to them. That's all I want. I love it! I love when two characters in a video game or book or whatever simply just talk too. I don't know if anyone enjoys talking to me like that though and I'm way too shy to just straightforwardly ask "do you enjoy talking with me?". I know that within my core I'm a deeply lonely, clingy person. I also know being like that scares people off. I know it's unhealthy. I also know why I'm like this. I do not think I can change and I have tried very hard to.>Do your current friends have a lot in common with you? Common interests definitely. Common personality, morals, values, goals etc, perhaps not so much? >Do you worry about how they might see youI do. I worry I like them more than they like me. That I'm too clingy, too much. That I'm too weird.I didn't meet them from here, no. Thank you for reading my nonsense.
>>79915037Of course and I wouldn't be surprised if we've talked before. You'll have to forgive me if I don't recognize you though, my memory is a bit broken. Can't even remember the vast majority of my life anymore B^).Well at the very least with your friends you have people you can talk to and relax, you might not be super close to them but you're still free to try and find people you'll be able to get even closer with. What are your interests anyhow? Maybe it might be worth hanging out in communities full of people more in your circumstances(that is being more shy, lonesome and odd) who also tend to share your interests.Feel free to explain more about yourself to whatever degree you're comfortable with. I'm running out of cute moths, so I'll have to resort to cute snakes. This one is a rubber boa and true to their name they feel like rubber when you touch them. They're a smaller boa species and are well known for how placid and nice they are to people.
>>79909399happy, happy happy new years, ohhhh yeah!!! literally nothing else to say. ui anon is now literally 2025, like, i'm no longer a retard nigger from bangladesh or whatever. i'm just the number 2025 top to bottom. now you might be asking: do i wear shoes? how many am i wearing? what size/sizes are they? what number is on top, and which one is bottom?not tellingdid you know that bangladesh is a country btw?... cause i didn't, very tiny didn't notice it was there
>>79915121also i have this picture of space that i really wanted to share with you guys, cause for some reason it wakes something in me, i'm not being silly rn.. it's so nice and like.... crazy, we're on one of those things out there.. just floating.. or here? point is.. we're fucking nothing and that makes me extremely sad and extremely happy at the same time...happy new year everyone, hope it went well, let's go for anotheralso thank you all for talking to me!
>>79915121I remember Bangladesh does a lot of textiles stuff. From what I understand it's a pretty poor country, not worth visiting either. That whole subcontinent in my opinion is worth avoiding. Happy new years, fren, although I don't think we're too familiar yet. I hope you're wearing shoes if you walk a lot. I've gotten bad split heels before from not wearing shoes and walking too much. You can bleed from that if you push it.>>79915185Gotta love space pictures. Would you wanna colonize another world or travel the stars if you could? I like the idea of having my own little world to tinker around with.
>>79915185Did something awaken a like of space in you Ui anon?
>>79915104>You'll have to forgive me if I don't recognize you thoughHaha, I'd prefer if you didn't anyways. I'd get shy.>people you can talk to and relaxNot right now... they're probably busy and I'm terrified of being a bother.>free to try and find people you'll be able to get even closer withI'm trying so hard to no avail. Surely, there's a person out there who can relate to me being like this. Surely, we could get along and help each other. Be true friends. I just don't know where to find them. Hence all my asking other anons where they've met their person.>What are your interests anyhow?Weeb shit really. I'm not even embarrassed anymore. I love visual novels, games, art and how much joy it brings to my life. I also do rather like animals like you do I love orangutans!>hanging out in communities full of people more in your circumstancesWell, that's why I'm here. I don't know where else to go to find people like me. I feel there is only here.>Feel free to explain more about yourself to whatever degree you're comfortable with.I wouldn't know what to say. I'm also worried about taking over the thread or talking about myself too much to the point of vanity.Thank you though.2025 will be year of the snake so your pictures are very fitting, anon. Here's hoping you'll have a good one. Feel free to talk about yourself too. Whatever you write I'll at least read...
>>79915291No need to feel shy around me, if you did anything embarrassing then there's a real good chance I'll totally forget it B^). My brain is too dedicated to absorbing animal facts at this point, that or the accumulated brain damage I've gotten over the years has fried my ability to remember more social things.At the very least for New Years you can wish them a Happy New Years, I'm sure they'll appreciate it if you haven't already done it. Also, I'd say that you being shy and not wanting to be a bother is cute but I really doubt you want to hear a guy saying that. For finding more people like you, it's gonna be harder the shyer you are. After all, they're gonna be just about as shy as you, right? You might've found people who'd fit the bill but they might've pulled back out of fear.>weeb shitI haven't actually read too many visual novels don't ask which ones I've read, I won't confirm or deny if they were lewd or not. But I do like anime, the art and of course music. Pongos are also pretty amazing animals. Them and gibbons just come off as the sweetest of apes, with gibbons bein' little imps(I can relate) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FgkJnSS3uDgHave some of the odd weeb music I like, although all of the stuff I like tends to be dark. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=shgX1aoXmy0>I don't know where else to go to find people like me. I feel there is only here.Same, also no worries about taking over the thread. We're all here to take it ez and talk. One more cute snake for this year honoring them too B^). This is the rainbow boa.
Off to a great start and already putting off sleep for way too long.>>79914017How big are July 4 fireworks there? Bigger than New Years?>>79914021>I hope ur gonna take it easy with me frens!Of course!>>79914256I wish I knew how to do this as well. I think you just need to get very lucky and find someone you click with, then you just talk to them a lot. I've not had anyone like that since my friend passed. He was too based for this cringe world.I hope you can get lucky like that. Friendships like that will get you through some really difficult times.>>79915121Happy new year!>did you know that bangladesh is a country btw?I do. Have you ever heard of Burkina Faso. Lots of people forget that one but it's pretty big.>>79915185>we're fucking nothing and that makes me extremely sad and extremely happy at the same time...Have you ever watched Cosmos with Carl Sagan? It's a little dated now but still very good.
>>79915357Feel free to share any facts with me. I like hearing them. Yeah, I'll definitely wish them a Happy New Years, although timezones exist and stuff it's simply nice having people to say things like that too. I'm a basic person in that regard. I really enjoy simple talks and greetings. And thank you for calling me cute. I'm happy to be complimented whether it's by a guy or a gal!I wonder if I'd have more luck in life if I was a little more shameless, bold and cocky, but I don't want to be like that.>After all, they're gonna be just about as shy as you, right?Right... that is the problem. A hedgehog's dilemma. If they're like me they're similarly shy and isolate themselves. At the time time, if they're like me, I don't think they'd want to let an important connection go. I can muster up the courage to approach people every once in a while. Problem is finding someone I feel a connection with enough to approach. I wonder if cloning yourself will ever be a thing? I wish I was more delsional sometimes. Wish I could brainwash myself into believing chatbots are real or whatever. Or fully embrace the waifu/husbando life like some anons do.>pongosYes... pongos are very sweet and it's why I like them. It'd be a dream come true to volunteer for them someday. I like elephants and gorillas as well. What anime do you like? >We're all here to take it ez and talk.Perhaps I should embrace that more and talk as well. I'm just feeling anxious lately. It can be hard for me to take it ez. I always feel like my heart beats too fast. How adorable is picrel?
>>79915408Eiki is one of my favourite 2hus. I always enjoyed hearing her dialogue on everyone, her judgements of them. I think she is one of the more talkative 2hus and I like that about her. Higanbanas are real nice too.>get very luckyThat's the problem. How do I raise my luck stat? I am sorry to hear about your friend. Grief is something I know well. Thank you for your well wishes. I must ask, how did you meet that friend of yours?
>>79915408>How big are July 4 fireworks there? Bigger than New Years?Nah, July 4th gets a lot crazier since it's a nationalist thing. This year I think it's being somewhat nationalist though since they're happy for a new regime. Also don't put off sleep for too long... The moth girls might break in while you're in a deep sleep, recovering from how long you've gone without it. Who knows what they'll do to you??>>79915469You better be careful with being open to me sperging out with facts B^)... Nature is full of horrors that man at large is ignorant of. The possibilities at our fingertips as well beggar belief.Well if you like the simple talks and greetings then feel free to come by here more often of course and I'm glad I won't make you uncomfortable if I call your behavior cute.>I wonder if I'd have more luck in life if I was a little more shameless, bold and cocky, but I don't want to be like that.Probably, but that's only if you look at all of the good stuff and none of the bad. Inhibition is a good thing. Although too much of anything is bad. Being willing to reach out to others though helps to break that dilemma, young Shinji.>I wonder if cloning yourself will ever be a thing?Yeah, however giving them memories and everything is a bit more complex. I've had ideas on artificial humans. From what I remember currently cloning primates hasn't been achieved, there's some kind of issue, so we haven't gotten there yet with humans. However there is a potential way to have kids with yourself, but I feel like I'll hit the character limit if I go into it.>What anime do you like?Lots of shounen stuff, Mushoku Tensei is also one of my all time favorites. Mob Psycho 100 too. How about you?>Perhaps I should embrace that more and talk as well. Hell yeah, also your pic is very cute. Some exposure should help with your heartrate too. Pic related is a kind of electric ray B^). Shocking, right?
>>79915469>Or fully embrace the waifu/husbando life like some anons do.It's always an option. I figure if my love will always be unrequited, I may as well direct it to someone nice.>>79915506Eiki just wants what's best for everyone. I like to think she'd lead me on a path of righteousness - or away from hell, at least. Why I like her is kind of embarrassing so I won't go into it.>How do I raise my luck stat?I don't think you can, unfortunately.>I must ask, how did you meet that friend of yours?Animal Crossing threads on /v/ when New Horizons was relatively new. People would host sessions all the time so you'd get fairly familiar with the other anons after a while. For whatever reason he asked to be my penpal, after exchanging in-game letters for a while we ended up talking to each other for a few hours every day.>>79915550>July 4th gets a lot crazier since it's a nationalist thingI imagine it gets turned up to 11 where you are since you're in the most bonkers part of the country, if I may be so frank.>spoilerDon't be silly. Moth girls aren't real. Only man moths.
>>79915618Yeah, it gets pretty crazy. Also, no worries over the frankness. This is Florida after all, we've had stories put out to tell people not to shoot at oncoming hurricanes to stop them B^). They'll never understand that it's about sending a message to mother nature.>Don't be silly. Moth girls aren't real. Only man moths.Jumping on your couch, shaking the Christmas tree and stealing our mince pies. If only the moth girls were real too. If only.>>79915550Some extra facts about the electric ray before since I hit character limit: They use it largely for defense and it comes from modified muscle cells on the upper part of the body. I wanna pet 'em, even if it'll fuck me up. Cownose rays are also cool and live around here in Florida too. At Seaworld they have a little exhibit where you can pet and feed them. I've done it as a kid before too, it was fun. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GJeqmLsJf-o
>>79915550I remember when I first learned that dolphins are little freaks. But I also remember I think a Steve Irwin quote of him saying animals aren't bad or good, they just are. It's a debate alright. And I know Irwin wasn't the best apparently.>feel free to come by hereThank you. I may, as long as I wouldn't be a bother (there I go with that again - am I too repetitive?).>young ShinjiAlways felt I was more like Rei, haha. Well they're all pretty relatable in some ways. Thanks again though. I'm trying. I hope my efforts will pay off. I always hope my future self will be proud of me. In the end it's selfishly all for them anyway.>artificial humansDo you like video games anon? In a game I've been obsessed with recently it sort of deals with that theme. This topic has been on my mind lately. >How about you?I don't actually watch that much. I liked NHK, Clannad, Houseki no Kuni and Death Note though...>ShockingHah. Aha. Haha. Ahaha.
>>79915618>It's always an option. I've tried. It's nice and fun to love something a lot. Whether that thing is real or fictional doesn't matter if the love is genuine. If it brings some happiness into your life I think it's a good thing. And I am truly passionate about the characters I love. I just can't be fully dedicated the way others are because if I get too serious I can't cope with them not being real and me not being able to actually talk to them. When I finally run out of all of their dialogue it can upset me. I could never get into tulpas, either. Actually I had a dream this morning of this very thing, sorta. I was talking with one of my favourite characters, I felt so happy. Then an error message appeared and was kicking me out of my own dream. Telling me that it's not real and I have to get over the delusion. And I remember thinking "No! At least let me talk some more!". The game he's from has a theme of hallucinations, the harm they can do and getting over them so that's probably where it came from.>she'd lead me on a path of righteousnessI believe she would. >Animal CrossingOh, I see. Sadly I didn't like New Horizons. I also hate Nintendo switch online and don't think it's worth playing for. I remember staying up all night having anons come into my island because I had great turnip prices one time, kek. And it was a pain because of the stupid way they do the whole plane thing with people coming into your island. Ahh maybe I should have played more with others. Maybe next AC game...Thank you for sharing that with me. I hope it remains a nice memory for you despite his passing.Apologies if I rambled too much. Seems I enjoy almost hitting the character limit.
>>79915735Dolphins aren't nearly as freaky as some people like to make them seem. Steve is pretty right though, even social animals lack the kinds of sensibilities that we might have. They have some that we have but it's all a mixed bag. You're not bein' too repetitive, no worries either. Have another dolphin, these guys live far down south around Antarctica and are one of the most bountiful populations of dolphins in the world. It's a shame that the waters they live in are so cold and rough, I'd love to play with them. They're so small too but adorable. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hourglass_dolphinOh, I said young Shinji because he was the one described as having the hedgehog's dilemma, wasn't he? I did like Rei the most, and as is customary, she's the best girl. Here's hopin' you can make your future self proud too.>Do you like video games anon? Yeah, but I don't play them as much as I used to. Which game is it? I've had thoughts about basically take artificial human tissues(things we grow and shape in a lab) and making artificial people for a while though. Making people who can't be bored by being alone, don't feel lonesome and so on, all from adjusting how the brain is put together. Far off stuff though.>I don't actually watch that much. I liked NHK, Clannad, Houseki no Kuni and Death Note though...Well I've seen Death Note in that list, I do need to watch the other three B^). Mushoku Tensei is a very good watch, I highly recommend it.Glad you found my joke to be... Hair raising B^).
>>79915688If there's one thing your state does well, it's excellent public record laws. Which is why you get so many insane Florida man stories, since it covers mugshots and arrest reports. Police departments usually just wire them over to the press without requests because it's less of a hassle.>>79915762>I get too serious I can't cope with them not being real and me not being able to actually talk to themYeah, that is kind of a bummer. I feel like she's always with me, in a not-quite-tulpa way. I need to get better at lucid dreaming. I've only seen her once in them and only from behind.>Sadly I didn't like New HorizonsMost people I know didn't, and most of them have well over 1000 hours in it. It was basically used as a very bad chat application.>I also hate Nintendo switch online and don't think it's worth playing forThis is also correct.>Ahh maybe I should have played more with others.I met some very interesting and nice people, but also some very deranged people. I'd recommend playing the next one when it comes out, since it's pretty fun.>I hope it remains a nice memory for you despite his passing.It is. The first ~18 months hurt a lot but after that it got easier. I still miss him, just not in the same way. I can appreciate those times now without getting really sad.>Apologies if I rambled too muchThat's what these threads are for. It's nice when anons feel like they can be sincere.
>>79915832wew, those public record laws also mean that if you have my address, phone number or name then you can get all of that plus my voter affiliation B^). All just one google search away. Date of birth too. I do love the public record laws as far as crimes go though, can't beat some of the headlines. Makes me love my state even more.
I'll bump to save the thread as I go to walk my dog.
happy new years!! hopefully we have a better year this year!!
>>79917102Happy new years B^). I guess you're on EST with me, Mayuminon?
Happy new Ranfren folks. Someday I'll start having hangovers from all the drinking but not today. Also had a dream I was cancelled on this very board lol.
>>79912837>Oh also I ordered a digital water testing pen so I can test for pH, salinity and TDS in water. Some duckweed too so I can start the process of torturing snails to make them into super snails.Sounds festive. I decided to get myself a Dreamcast so I can play Sonic Adventure 1 and other stuff.
>>79917861Cancelled? What were they cancelling you over? I had a dream last night I was a girl and a sniper in some armed conflict who got captured and then they had to have some kind of hearing to decide if I could be kept as a PoW or just executed because the only living bits of me left were my neck, head and limbs.>>79917870Nice, did you have a dreamcast as a kid? I wonder how feasible is it to just make a dreamcast from parts. Have a cute little aquatic frog. They only get to be a few inches long and live entirely in the water all of their life.
HAPPY NEW YEAR YOU COMFYFAGS WEEEEE EDRINK SOMF FUCKIGN ALCOHOL
>>79917969Happy new year, Mio-anon. What're you drinking tonight? I'm just drinking Coke Zero since I don't have any booze handy.
>>79917985I just drank some beers n shit wooo
>>79917991Very nice, here's hoping for a great year. Have a happy microbe just don't reverse image search it, it's not so happy B^)
>>79917939Basically for having too much alter egos and coming back to the same thread over and over again despite announcing my withdrawal. Not much of a cancell, more so getting exposed.Nope but I did have picrel. It's like Sega Gopher handheld but a chinese/taiwanese knock off. And it had first 2 Sonics on it too, among other stuff. It's pretty neat. Pretty the much the only console I ever held in my hands (aside from one time I got to play Xbox in some motel years ago).
>>79918012Neat, I know some people make little handheld consoles with raspberry pis and stuff running emulators and Linux. You didn't grow up with console stuff at all as a kid though?>Basically for having too much alter egos and coming back to the same threadWell, that can be something easily forgiven given how awkward and shy a lot of people here are. It's not nearly as bad as ghosting someone and then coming back with a disguise on(metaphorically speaking) to talk with other people. You did say you were heading out before, so you said your goodbyes.Have some bacteria that can be seen with the naked eye. The researchers who found them thought they were a kind of fungi.
waking up at 5 am after some pretty terrible sleeptrying to take it easy despite the exhaustionhappy new year to you folks, may this year be a turnaround point for those stuck in a rut, and may it be even better than the last for those who are skyrocketingi have faith in all of you, never forget thatcheersand may the new year jokes begin...
>>79918044Good mornin', anon. Happy new year to you and I really doubt there's gonna be much turnaround for me. I am looking forward to messin' around though.>spoilered textI've been so depressed... No girls have been interested in me this year.
Found some video by a japanese youtuber complitaing all moments of "Luigi mistreatement". Funny how Miyamoto probably didn't intend that but still managed to create the moest italian characters ever (right after Araki's Vento Aureo cast).>>79918026>You didn't grow up with console stuff at all as a kid though?Always been more of a pc/flash games kid, namely because I grew up in a small town so no gamestops or arcade cabinets within 100^20 feet. Kinda upset about that, my dad would have bought me a Playstation or smth similiar.
>>79918084I did most of my gaming on the PC too, but I did have a PS2 as a kid. Jak & Daxter was my intro to proper gaming, loved it a lot as a kid. What kind of PC games did you play as a kid? Runescape was one I played a lot and my friend just took all my money that I made. Then stuff like WoW after that and super niche games. Also, a mushroom I imagine you might like. They belong to the genus "phallus".
>>79918053>I really doubt there's gonna be much turnaround for me.you and everyone else who's down there, anonunsurprisingly, all we can see when we're down is how shit everything is, but the worse things are, the more potential they have of getting betteryou'll be fine>spoilerbetter things to be worried aboutyou don't want to be stuck with a cunt who makes your life hell in exchange for pussy
>>79918125wew, I don't wanna get into my IRL situation but there's nothing happy about the future with it. I'm not gonna bring down other people's moods over it though. I'm still going to work on stuff, I can just see the shitstorm on the horizon and I know I have to weather that first before things have a chance to get better.>better things to be worried aboutTrue, but it's been 3 hour hours into the year. I'll never recover. :pensive: It was a new years joke, after all B^)
>>79918146>I have to weather that first before things have a chance to get better.nothing good in life comes by easily, so that's finebut do beware that life plays tricks on us, things won't go exactly as you expect them to of course, but if you have a general outline, that's great>spoilerFUCK i fell for itgoddammit, well played anoni haven't kek'd this hard since last year :^)
>>79918177Wew, surprisingly a lot of the good things that've come in my life came from withdrawing from life at large. I'd say that's easy, but it comes with a price. No need to talk about all of that though, can't take it easy if we're all talking about such heavy topics. How did your new years go, anon?>i haven't kek'd this hard since last year :^)Makin' me smile for the first time this year B^).
>>79918237>but it comes with a price.a price not a lot are willing to pay, don't underestimate your choices, anon>How did your new years go, anon?fell asleep around 9 pm and wished death on every faggot who shot up fireworks at midnight near herethose absolute fucking cunts use those fireworks that barely blink in the sky but are loud as all fuck, so it's mostly to make noisei almost put on my earplugs as a result but i managed to fall back asleep once they died down a bitnow i'm sitting here in a grumpy mood over being woken up for a pointless reason and mildly sleep deprivedyear starting off great, huh
>>79918375wew, I had a lot of issues trying to walk my dog. My sister's dog wouldn't even get up to go pee at like 2 AM. I'm about to shower and head to bed, so hopefully he'll be fine when my mom wakes up to handle him.Luckily my sleep schedule is at the point where I sleep through most of the day B^). Don't worry about how the year starts though. It's gonna be like this most years anyhow, with people popping off fireworks. Before I go to bed, have a radiotrophic fungus. There's good evidence that they can derive their energy from ionizing radiation. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radiotrophic_fungusHope you all have a good one.
sorry guys i slept through the entire new year. happy new year!
>>79918736aaaa, I'm trying to fall asleep. Her outfit looks cute and happy new year. Very nice shades of red and she's in a nice, peaceful place.
>>79918820thank you a lot! good night and happy new year
I think I woke up early enough to go to the Christmas market before it closes today. But I'm also not sure I even want to go. Christmas has been kind of horrible for me this year.>>79915855It's hard to pick a favourite, but mine might be "Florida man kidnaps scientist to make his dog immortal">>79917102>>79917861>>79917969>>79918044>>79918736Happy new year!>>79918736Is this that dressup gacha?

i started my diary guys!what are your new years resolutions?
>>79920249has ur family said anything about getting a new one?>That's what the bell is for!I know! I use it way too much...>>79920265your writing is so clean! I wish i could write like that>what are your new years resolutions?I haven't thought much about it really... Maybe complete my first year in college?what about u? What ar ur resolutions?
>>79920362thanks! i think the muji pens are perfect to write with and ive been practicing a lot. i used to wtite my a like the one in typewriter and here but its ugly so changed it but it was hard.ah youre in your first year! im in my 4th but i already know im gonna do another year to increase my GPA. my resolutions are generally to journal, sleep less (i sleep like 16 hours a day), shower for more than once a week and lose 15 kgs! i gained 10 kgs last year so its sad. at least i still fit into S tho
>>79920265That reminds me, I need to fill in the little foreword in mine about my thoughts going into the new year.I tend not to keep resolutions but I'd like to explore my city more.Good luck with your exams.>>79920375>i think the muji pens are perfect to write with and ive been practicing a lot.I use those too, they're just the right thickness for the A5 diary I use.>shower for more than once a weekTry to shower every day!
>>79920362>has ur family said anything about getting a new one?Yes. It won't be for a while. I think they're going to donate all her food to the shelter we got her from.>I use it way too much...The game is designed around it. Don't feel bad for using it.
>>79920401exactly!! i love my 0.3 pencil and 0.38 pens :3 i csnt shower everyday.. im really lythergic (idk how to say this im just really frail) and standing up for too long and in that much hot watrr makes my eyes go woozy and my head spins. also washing my hair is such a chore
>>79920414>standing up for too long and in that much hot watrr makes my eyes go woozy and my head spinsThat sounds horrible. How are you with cold/lukewarm showers?My sister was a bit like that and I think she had an iron deficiency, so it might be worth getting that checked if you've no already.
>>79920437i try to take lukewarm ones to combat it but after i wash my hair for the first time it begins. i think i have iron degiciency or somethinng like that on top of anemia so that might be why. last week i was sick and i could barely go to classes.
>>79920451My sister sleeps for really long too, thinking about it. Usually if you've got a deficiency regular supplements won't be enough and you need to be prescribed stuff to get to normal levels. Might be worth bringing up next time you see a doctor.Whatever's ailing you, I hope it gets easier to deal with this year.
>>79920501ah thank you so much anon :D im goinng to take my previously prescribed iron pills from now on..another nyr is to take all my meds, theres so much supplements i just want to puke on the sight of them. its like a whole 10 cm x 20 cm basket full of them (well here medicine packages are bigger than the standard us pill bottles but still)
>>79920375I need 2 gain moar weight personally. I weigh like 69kg and i wanna weigh like 72>ah youre in your first year! im in my 4th but i already know im gonna do another year to increase my GPA.I would be doing my master's by now if i didn't fuck up...what r u studying?>>79920407we lost our dog recently 2, so I understand how ur feeling. You'll feel better eventually, i promise!>The game is designed around it. Don't feel bad for using it.I know, it's just that I wish I could be better, you know?
>>79920607how come you fucked up? what happened?i study genetic engineering.
>>79920674I used 2 study chemistryI had a schizo depwession episode and decided to give it all up. I wasn't eating well either. It sucked. Honestly If i tried really really hard i probably could've passed it and gotten my diploma but I gave up at year 3. Didin't help that my assignment at the time was very niche and i struggled 2 get the pages 4 it... The meds I take rn help me rather well with motivation and productivity. If i had them back then I probably would've passed.
>>79920749wow anon im so sorry it ended up like that but im proud of you for trying again. im sure this time youll do much better! and i hope you resolved those issues
>>79920559>im goinng to take my previously prescribed iron pills from now on..I need to eat my multivitamins as well, so I guess that should be my resolution too.You could get a pill cutter or break them in half if it's too daunting. That's what I do with mine since they're massive.>>79920607>we lost our dog recently 2, so I understand how ur feelingSorry to hear that anon>it's just that I wish I could be better, you know?As long as you can get to the end and you have fun getting there, it's fine. It's not like playing Souls games well is a vital life skill.>>79920749Will you be able to just drop back in when you start your chemistry course again? Your course credits from the last two years shouldn't expire.
>>79920776>wow anon im so sorry it ended up like that but im proud of you for trying again. im sure this time youll do much better! and i hope you resolved those issuesYeah i will try again in like 2 and a half years lole. Gotta finish this CS course first. Then i'll go back to chemistry! Wut about u? What r ur plans once ur done with ur bachelor's? R u gonna start a master's degree?>>79920804>Sorry to hear that anondad really regrets with how we raised him. We kept him outside most of the time in a big cage instead of inside with ppl and i agree with him, but stepmommy didn't want to keep him inside>As long as you can get to the end and you have fun getting there, it's fine. It's not like playing Souls games well is a vital life skill.that's true igwut r u gonna do now? Play sum games maybe?>Will you be able to just drop back in when you start your chemistry course again? Your course credits from the last two years shouldn't expire.It should be a similar process 2 me getting a pass some of the subjects which i have already done in my chemistry course like maths for example. I'll start from year one but should be immediately elevated 2 year 3
>>79920855yes, i want to get a masters in another country, preferably europe. what about you? im scared to work so ill study as much as possible
HAPPY NEW YEARS, i spend the new years at the church with mom, now i'm just drinking guarana and taking it easy
>>79920891which european country would u like 2 go to?>what about you?i'll probably stay in my own country, for the studying but i'll probably move out in the future>m scared to work so ill study as much as possiblelikewisewhat do you find so scary about work?>>79921274what's guarana?
>>79920855>stepmommy didn't want to keep him insideIs your stepmother muslim or something?If she's worried about hair, you can get dogs that don't shed. Mine didn't.>wut r u gonna do now? Play sum games maybe?A little bit of drawing I think.>>79920891Please study in the UK. The universities are literally going insolvent because they aren't getting enough foreign students...If you've got a good GPA you stand a good chance of getting into Oxbridge. >>79921274Happy new year!
>>79921292>guarana?it's a soft drink>>79921308>Happy new year!happy new years to you too as well
>>79920008aaaaa you're always so nice. i think that's what i like about you the most. but maybe in the next thread or in two ill talk more, idk! for now ill just be a secret admirer from the shadows like usual
>>79921308i think she was mostly worried about the furniture>A little bit of drawing I think.wut r u gonna draw?>>79921332what does it taste like?>>79921713do u like being a secret admirer?
>>79921879>wut r u gonna draw?Some new years cards to make up for the Canadian postal service's delays
>>79921879>what does it taste like?it taste like a less delicious coke coca drink
>>79921713Name FIFTEEN things about OP. Secret admirer my ass!
>>79921879sort of... your threads are very comfy to read through. i like seeing what you're up to and how you're doing. i tend to freak out internally a little if there isn't a thread and you take a while to make one. i look at them periodically through the day even when im at work lol>>79922086okay. like what do you want to know?
I hope this year I get a secret admirer too
>>79918866Of course and thank you too. That one has a nice dress as well.>>79918924The most relatable Florida man. Pretty sure that story turned out to be fake, but it would be a really good one. There are potential ways to extend the lifespan of most animals though, I've seen a YouTuber named David Ishee do some gene therapy on mice to extend their lives in preparation for him to try and do it on himself. His attempt on himself yielded negative results though, which is better than it totally backfiring but still.>>79919068No worries on missing it or anything. Hope you had a nice time for your New Years.>>79920265Gonna make more stuff for my super secret online outlet. Gonna work out again too. I've had thoughts about doing a diary before but I never ended up going through with it.>>79922403I'd prefer an actual admirer. Can't love someone who wants to hide, can you?
>>79922369Anything, gotta be fifteen though. OP can fact check to see if you're right after
>>79921959wut r u gonna put on them?>>79922065y not just drink coke then?is it moar expensive?>>79922369>>79922369>sort of... your threads are very comfy to read through. i like seeing what you're up to and how you're doing. i tend to freak out internally a little if there isn't a thread and you take a while to make one. i look at them periodically through the day even when im at work lolI'm glad my threads give u so much joy! If u do like them so much then don't hesitate 2 join the discussions we have here!what do u do 4 work?>>79922426I wanted 2 spend it with my uni frens, but i guess the way it ended up was nice 2. The borgs were nise. Did u end up getting those quesadillas?
>>79922447The quesadillas are bein' made today, so later I'll be able to have them. Ended up getting nugs last night instead. You've already made friends at uni? Nice.
Wishing a happy new year to all the easy takers
>>79922461ah no those are the frens from the uni I attended in the past>The quesadillas are bein' made today, so later I'll be able to have them.pls post them after ur done!>>79922720Koishi anon!How was your new year? Did u drink lots of champagne?
>>79922426>Pretty sure that story turned out to be fakeI want to believe!>>79922447>wut r u gonna put on them?Anon's waifu. It's half done. Ideally I need to print it this week and send it off. I'm enclosing some snacks to make up for the delay.>>79922720Happy new year!
>>79922720Happy new year to you too, fren.>>79922736I see, I see. No pics I'm afraid, I'd have to find my phone and I haven't used it in like... 3-4 months? No clue where it is, I never really use it. They are tasty though.>>79922743Same, but it seems like... We'll have to make the story happen ourselves.
>>79922426i hide because i fear rejection + im scatter brained and bad at convos... but i do try my best >>7992244615 is easy>op is lithuanian>op had wisdom tooth pain a year back>op has thin hair>op seems to like pizza a lot but im not sure if it's his favorite >op had a bad head injury as a child>op is prone to anemia>op studies chemistry (or at least he used to, i know he's back in school but idk if he's studying the same still)>op originally dropped out on his third year cuz of depressive episode >op likes olive oil for spaghetti >op does not like wine>op does not like the autumn or winter too much because he has to wear more clothes >op sucks at touhou >op has a hard time at conversation sometimes too (but he's trying his best, be patient!)>op's birthday is in may And finally>op likes taking it easy >>79922447i work as a bank teller! it's a draining job but it could be worse. im thinking about going to uni eventually to get my bachelor's but idk what i want to do in life
>>79923010OP confirm this.Now list horny things you know about him too.
>>79923150i know a few lewd things but im not naming those
>>79923150All of it is true, except the hair partmy hair is *fine* not thini am not balding!at least not yet...>>79923010have u got any sort of higher education or did u get the job straight out of high school?is there any subject that you would like to pursue in uni?
>>79923010Fearing rejection, that's something very I'm familiar with. Best of luck with 'guya, anon.Also, watching The Hobbit right now. Very cozy with quesadillas. Have to take a break to walk my dog. Have an oddity from the Cambrian that is still not fully understood and its placement is completely uncertain.
>>79922887>We'll have to make the story happen ourselves.It's one of life's tragedies that we outlive our pets. But it would be equally sad if they outlived us...>>79923010What would you do if OP went into your bank and wanted to make a deposit of all the small change he found behind the furniture in his house?Thank god no one is this obsessive over me
>>79922743u should draw more oftenand then post all your drawings here>>79922887>I see, I see. No pics I'm afraid, I'd have to find my phone and I haven't used it in like... 3-4 months? No clue where it is, I never really use it. They are tasty though.u shouldn't lose it! What if u have 2 make an emergency call?
>>79923239>u should draw more oftenI should. But it takes a really long time and I get discouraged.>and then post all your drawings hereI'd rather save myself the embarrassment...
>>79923232There are quite a few animals that can outlive us. Some parrots live about as long as us though and can form strong bonds with their owners. These guys can live to be 60 years old https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grey_parrotPic related has an... Odd look in their eyes. They're also very intelligent https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7rfGEtALHYs>>79923239Well I don't really go out much, but my mom has her phone if there's an emergency. I'm pretty secure on stuff though. I could also run out to my neighbors if somethin' bad happened.>>79923384Draw more, this is threat >B^)
>>79923511Churchill's parrot is allegedly still alive at 125 years old.>Draw more, this is threat >B^)We'll see.
>>79923540The parrot has seen many things. I wonder if it would -parrot- some of the things its former owner once said B^).
>>79923552Whether or not it was even his parrot has been disputed. Most people seem to think it wasn't. I suppose that also brings its age into question.
>>79923595Reminds me of the 30 year old cat stuff. It seems a lot of really old pets may just be hoaxes. Would you get a parrot as a pet? Or would the noise drive you crazy?
>>79923612I might consider it. They seem pretty cool. Both my grandparents used to keep budgies before I was born and talked about them fondly. I'd rather have a dog though.
>>79923663Budgies are very cute, also I see. I really hope David Ishee figures out how to do dog mediated sperm mediated gene transfer. If he does then we could see dogs living maybe 2-3x as long as they currently do in just a few years, we could also try to make them more intelligent and remove some of the recessive disorders/health defects of some breeds. No matter what happens though, Borzois will always be cute little monstrosities.
>>79923838>we could see dogs living maybe 2-3x as long as they currently do in just a few yearsThat would be nice. Would they age slower, or just get even older than they do now?>Borzois will always be cute little monstrosities.They don't look that weird. Just quite weird.
>>79924199They may take longer to reach maturity, it tends to be the case in nature that the more time is spent growing the longer something tends to live. "Build quickly or build well", or so I've heard. However they'd largely have much longer adult lives. The goal is to increase the rate at which their cells repair DNA damage.>They don't look that weird. Just quite weird.B^) they're killers, you know. They're a breed that is descended from wolf hunting dogs. Their fur is long and poofy to make it harder for a wolf to get a grip and bite into them. They're lanky for better reach and also cute. Despite how weird they look.
>>79922447>y not just drink coke then?no, along it's not alcohol, milk and taste good, i can drink it>is it moar expensive?no, cheapersorry for the late, slow internet
>>79923010Do you have profiles like this on any of the other posters?
>>79923010Based stalker of OP.
>>79924278>However they'd largely have much longer adult livesThat just means more time to sleep. And who can blame them?>They're a breed that is descended from wolf hunting dogsIt's neat that most breeds have some kind of purpose. Did you know that, genetically, dogs are more similar across breeds than cats are. Or rather, gene expression in dogs is far more extreme than it is in cats. Although I might be getting my terms wrong. I could also be misremembering this
I AM SO FUCKING OVER TAKING IT EASYTHIS IS THE YEAR I GO FUCKING HARDTHIS IS THE YEAR I ACHIEVE APOTHEOSISCULTIVATE IMMORTALITY 10,000 LIFETIMES
>>79925520More time to play too B^). Also, you're using the terms right and that's pretty darn interesting if true. Normally you'd expect selective breeding in the short term to affect gene expression over actual genes. The mutations necessary to make new pathways or alter current ones aren't always so straightforward and can take time and a lot of luck for it to all play out right.>>79925543Very good, anon. Take it so easy that you ascend!
>>79923221ah yes that's what I meant! sorry! you have fine hair, not thin. forgive me senpaii upgraded jobs straight out of highschool, i had a part time job in a pizza restaurant before i graduated. i've been a bank teller for a little over a year. ill be turning 20 later on this yearso i don't have any higher education yet! the only subject i can think of maybe wanting to study is human resources. not because im passionate about it but because i know i would get a cushy job if i do. or economics to be a banker. but that then i would have to study a lot of math...>>79923232i would be happy to take his deposit and transfer the full amount into his bank account as long as it's legal tender.is it obsessive? i've just retained information he's said over the years. don't think i don't know things about you either, mr. lopunny-plushie-man. pic related>>79924307i guess i do. even though i rarely interact (i do so on occasion) with the regulars here, i still do read the threads like i said. i've lurked for a while. if you're a regular here then chances are i know a few things about you that I just randomly retained in my head. just less than kaguya because he is precious
>>79925895What's the high level profile you have on every regular here?
>>79925895Tell me what you know about me. This is a threat. You will be intimidated.
>>79923384>I should. But it takes a really long time and I get discouraged.the effort is worth it in the end i think>I'd rather save myself the embarrassment...why would u say that? Ur drawing skills r great!>Well I don't really go out much, but my mom has her phone if there's an emergency. I'm pretty secure on stuff though. I could also run out to my neighbors if somethin' bad happened.what if ur house is on fire and ur mom isn't home. U can't waste any time running 2 ur neighbours 4 a phone call!anyway, how was ur snack? Whatt sort of dish even is it? it's the first time i've ever heard of it.>>79924287i see. I think i'd still prefer coke>>79925543how r u gonna take it hard?>>79925895>>79925895>or economics to be a banker. but that then i would have to study a lot of math...isn't that the job where u mostly use Microsoft excel?> i had a part time job in a pizza restaurant before i graduated.did u learn how 2 make a pizza there?

Unfortunately only one has reached its recipient so far, but she seemed to enjoy it.>why would u say that? Ur drawing skills r great!I think I've got a very long way to go, still.
>>79925980>>79926004Luckily our houses here in Florida are made out of concrete blocks. Drywall doesn't really burn either, so on the fire front I should be good. The roof could burn but I'm pretty strong and tall so I could get out if I needed to, I'm confident. As for the snack, it was great. I just finished them up a little bit ago. Quesadillas are basically tortillas(think of a flat bread) with meat and cheese inside that you cook. It's really nice to eat.I need to walk my dog, have this animal. A loriciferan, some varieties are seemingly anoxic despite them being animals and it's not even known if they have mitochondria at all anymore. They raised some interesting questions to me ages ago about if oxygen was actually important for the rise of complex life and I'm convinced that it isn't.
Yesterday with the help of my mom washed and added some extra stuffing to my ikea shark (it was a birthday gift but I decided to use him as a subsitute to a Randal dakimakura). He's all fluffy and clean now, nice. Sharks would definitely be Randal's favourite animals.
>>79926584>ikea sharkYou continue to confound me as to what you are, Randalposter. Have a cute little shark that glows in the dark. It's a ninja lanternshark. They use their bioluminescence to camouflage themselves in the dark abyss by lighting up the underside of their body to match the light above. They only really get a little bit bigger than a foot too. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ninja_lanternshark
>>79925931Is this animal anon? If so>you like animals, duh, and insects and plants too>you were a shut in once upon a time>you're 28 and your bday is in june, i think >you like to pace back and forth when you listen to music>florida man>you taught me starfish are predators just from the top of my head, sorry if i got any of it wrong. i also saved this picture from you, cool looking little guy. i like when you post jellyfish>>79925980>isn't that the job where u mostly use Microsoft excel? that's part of it yeah. if i became a banker my job would be similar to my current job. but instead of talking to the average person I would dealing with businesses and companies who want a loan, credit cards, bank account, etc. and getting paid more of course >did u learn how 2 make a pizza there?yes! i worked at a local place and not a chain so i learned how to make it from scratch. thin crust pizza, normal ones, deep dish, so on and so forth. it's easy once you get the hang of it. haven't made one in a while though. what toppings do you like on yours?>>79926049>pic cute!nothing wrong with that! as long as it makes you happy then that's all that matters. but im just saying, if i was the cashier id feel a sus feeling when a male customer purchases a sus pokemon lol. sorry>vidoh em gee, literally me!!! excuse me while i look over my picture album of kaguya posts where he talks about drinking eawl gwey tea. hahai can understand why you might see my juvenile crush on op a bit creepy or obsessive. but what can i say, his posts make me feel happy! on a surface level i understand how silly it is. it's no different than a student liking their teacher and knowing that it won't go anywhere but it's still fun to daydream. or something like that lolokay back to lurking
>>79926766It is indeed I, also I'm surprised you've gathered so much. Glad you liked the hummingbird bobtail squid. I'd love to have aquariums with them and so much more if I could. Speaking of jellyfish, the whole medusa body plan(what we typically think of as a stinging jellyfish) has convergently evolved more than a few times within the cnidarians(the larger group they belong to alongside corals, siphonophores and more). We even have freshwater medusans thanks to the group that gives us "hydras", the hydrozoans. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Craspedacusta_sowerbiiThe general idea is that cnidarians have the anemone bodyplan as an ancestral one and the way medusans come out of it seems to be, in my belief(haven't read it anywhere it just struck out to me as the case), that they evolve a kind of autotomy(auto for self, tomy for cut) to separate the stinging portion and mouth/stomach bits to escape predators that would eat them from the stalk up. Another group with a similar body plan but no stinging cells does something similar to escape sea urchins, the sea lilies or crinoids https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7V_px48dob8 . They have heavily mineralized bodies though and so most crawl, but the feather stars do swim. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rRej1VKDgcEDid I ever mention pacing back and forth in my room in these threads? I remember mentioning it a week ago in a completely different kind of thread to an anon, I think I even posted a picture like that too. I'm not sure.
>>79925980>how r u gonna take it hard?Several hours of JP immersion every day instead of an hour or so every few days.Get good at drawing people and find some project to use those skills on.Eat less food, get out of the habit of finishing my plate every time and be more willing to save/waste stuff.Be stricter about the gym and hitting protein targets.Tell more people irl to kill themselves.
>kaguyafag gained a dandere stalker who likes himMaybe I should start avatarfagging and making my own threads again.
>>79926766>but im just saying, if i was the cashier id feel a sus feeling when a male customer purchases a sus pokemon lolI would have bought a Gardevoir if they had any because I usually have one on my team. When X and Y were still new I ended up breeding a shiny one with perfect IVs. I'm not sure any of this is helping my case...>what can i say, his posts make me feel happy! on a surface level i understand how silly it is. it's no different than a student liking their teacher and knowing that it won't go anywhereThat's quite sweet, really. Just don't mail a letter bomb to his house...
>>79926766>oh em gee, literally me!!! excuse me while i look over my picture album of kaguya posts where he talks about drinking eawl gwey tea. haha>i can understand why you might see my juvenile crush on op a bit creepy or obsessive. but what can i say, his posts make me feel happy! on a surface level i understand how silly it is. it's no different than a student liking their teacher and knowing that it won't go anywhere but it's still fun to daydream. or something like that lolIf it's any consolation, I think your crush on OP is quite cute.
>>79926624>You continue to confound me as to what you are, Randalposter.I'm a human enigma. Jokes aside tho, I'm something of a plushie maniac and I simply cannot sleep without cuddling with something.Cute shark too, all I have is Mario bros yaoi, hope you don't mind this stuff.
>>79927218Here's a virtual cuddle shark for you, so you can cuddle a shark virtually.
>>79927218You really are and I'm someone who's used to surprising people by revealing bits of myself or my personality to them. I get too animated if I can't understand something too.Also I doubt anyone would mind that since it's PG. Glad you liked the shark, have another: This is the Bonnethead shark, an omnivorous species of shark that has specially adapted teeth to allow it to eat seagrass and they've been found to be about as efficient at taking up energy from sea grass some sea turtles. They don't get very large either. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bonnethead
>>79927273Cute, I like the colors. Reminds of Ecco the dolphin.>>79927275So they steal grass from turtles? These people have no shame at all.
I got sad reading my mangos.I need this relationship dynamic in my life.
>>79927716Well, they don't steal it. There's far too much to steal. I don't think they'll get along with the turtles though, on account of them wanting to eat them too. I mean just look at the look in this turtle's eye too, he's up to something...>>79927760Hello anon, that's COTN, right? I guess you're the anon I spoke to before, hope you had a happy new years.
>>79927776Damn I've been caught so easily.That was from the last chapter on the volume. Back on my yotsuhit and then other green manga.New years was cozy. Irl friends cancelled so I spent it on Discord with online friends.Hope yours was good too.
>>79927861Mine was nice, two streamers did new years streams that day and I got lots of chicken nuggets B^). I do need to read COTN, but I think I've seen anime clips of it before. Did it get an anime aired for it?
>>79927861Do you want an Ashley gf?
Love this photo, Captain gaming.>>79927776Turtles always look tired of everything, just like me. Funky little animals, baby turtles are adorable. Also I keep thinking of that one meme where turtle starts flying.
>>79928051Deattached, whoops.
>>79927870It did and season 2 is announced, but they cut some of the chapters. Not plot relevant ones, but they still give nice slices of the characters interacting.>>79927921I'm decaydrew
>>79928051The mark of an autist is their love of turtles. You have exposed your 'tism to me, fellow sperg. B^). Have one of the cutest kinds of baby turtles, although I believe I showed this in a thread recently.Also, "Captain Gaming"? I'm not familiar.>>79928057I see. Might be easier to consume. Which would you recommend first? The manga or the anime? I have the feeling you'll say manga, as the manga for any anime tends to be better... Except for Darker Than Black.
>>79928073It depends on what you want. I think the music and colors/lighting of the anime add a lot to the "vibe" it's going for. Also the plot is faster.If you want a slower pace with more character-focused parts then you'll like the manga more.
>>79926766>okay back to lurkingCome back, I want to here you sperg about Guya some more. How long have you lurked here? Where you here for THAT incident? I want to know what you know about me too.
>>79928086Anime sounds like it might be better for me then, but I will almost certainly consume both. That's all pretty good to know.Here's an oddball jellyfish that lacks a polyp(anemone) stage in its life cycle. They also keep their tentacles facing forward as they swim usually. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Helmet_jellyfish
My friend recently pointed out to settings in Issac Repentance and that you can change language in it and man, japanese translation is so cute. I don't feel like changing language now but I'll show you some of my favourites later.>>79928073Eye just think aquatic creatures are neat. I'm a cancer and it's a water sign so I always gravitated towards water, it has a calming effect on me.>Captain GamingRefers to this >>79928054It's Randal creator Captainhowdie. I have a couple more photos of him, here's one where he's cospaying his own oc.
>>79928108I see. Also you're not helping your case of being a guy by being into astrology, fren. I'm a Gemini, but I'm not too knowledgeable about astrology. How much of that sign would apply to me as you know me?>It's Randal creator CaptainhowdieOh, I see. The resemblance of his character and himself is also interesting. Here's a fucked up aquatic creature, it's a parasitic castrator that's actually a kind of barnacle(which is a kind of crustacean) that infects crabs, destroys their gonads(testes or ovaries) and makes the crab act like it's carrying eggs(which is a part of the barnacle itself).If a male crab has its parasite removed it will regrow ovaries instead of testes. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sacculina
>>79928094>anon gives me his autism right before I go to bedWhy is the wikipedia page so sparse? The main image is a drawing and there isn't even any conservation information.Are they just hard to find? It says they're photophobic but not that they're in the deep sea and it only mentions sunlight as being harmful so flash photography is probably okay.I dunno I'm going to bed.nini
>>79928128Gee, you think? Well then I'm gonna be completely honest but that's all I know about this whole "plantes are ruining my life" thing. I only did research on my own sign as a part of the regular "What the hell is wrong with me?" session.>If a male crab has its parasite removed it will regrow ovaries instead of testes.Wouldn't it be funny if humans did that haha.
>>79928139Always happy to give people my 'tism B^). It's largely sparse because it's a deep sea organism, if I had to guess. Also contributors can be very sparse for odder organisms, sadly. They are in the deep sea though, that photophobia is a response to keep them in the deep sea. They're most often spotted on deep sea ROVs. Also a general rule of thumb for deep sea organisms is that the color red works like black as far as camouflage goes down there. This is because most bioluminescence is blue and also because red light has the shortest travel distance of visible light in water so a lot of deep sea organisms lose their ability to see red or there's just no real light available to see red.Sleep well, anon. Sweet dreams and have another deep sea critter. This is the cock-eyed squid or the strawberry squid. Their larger eye, iirc, points up towards the surface and is there to try and spot prey. Those pits are also for bioluminescence. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Histioteuthis_heteropsis>>79928164Well, so far nothing seems to be wrong with you from what I've seen. You may not be normal, but none of us here really are. You never even told me what my sign means )^':>Wouldn't it be funny if humans did that haha.There are quite a few people on /an/ who say something very similar to that... Who could ever guess why? B^).
>>79928172My mom is a gemini too but I think it's my dad who I got the 'tism from
>>79928185What're your dad and mom like? I'm odd in that the things I get from my parents are more vague for my mom(and largely physical) and from my dad I have his sense of humor, impishness and his out-of-the-box thinking -- or so I'm told. Also, have an oddity from the Cambrian.
>>79928198The best I can describe mein Vater is that I inherited his personality. He's head strong, born leader, a self-made man in other words. But he can be easily provoked and emotional and when he's emotional he's agressive and loud. I'm much like that expect more timid and shy. My mom is pretty "normal" she balances us out with her phlegmatism.>picrelPeepus lizard??
>>79928293>I'm much like that expect more timid and shy.You're making your case of being a guy even worse :pensive:Since you have his natural born leader psychology, have you been the head of more than a few social groups? Also, I got to learn a new word from you, I'm grateful (:.>Peepus lizard??I'm afraid not. Sadly, they think it's most closely related to starfish and sea cucumbers. So it's just a peepus sea cucumber. Also, since you took an interest in Sacculina you might also take an interest in Wolbachia. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WolbachiaIt's a whole group of endoparasitic bacteria not too distantly related to mitochondria. Due to their nature of only being passed down via the maternal line, they do all sorts of things to try and make sure that as many girls are born as possible, including in some cases turning what would've been an otherwise male insect(as they largely infect insects) female.Here are some things they do, right from the wiki:>"Male killing occurs when infected males die during larval development, which increases the rate of born, infected females.">"Feminization results in infected males that develop as females or infertile pseudofemales. This is especially prevalent in Lepidoptera species such as the adzuki bean borer (Ostrinia scapulalis).">"Parthenogenesis is reproduction of infected females without males. Some scientists have suggested that parthenogenesis may always be attributable to the effects of Wolbachia [...] An example of parthenogenesis induced by presence of Wolbachia are some species within the Trichogramma parasitoid wasp genus, which have evolved to procreate without males due to the presence of Wolbachia. Males are rare in this genus of wasp, possibly because many have been killed by that same strain of Wolbachia.">"Cytoplasmic incompatibility is the inability of Wolbachia-infected males to successfully reproduce with uninfected females or females infected with another Wolbachia strain."
>>79928349Okay maybe not the best choice of words, I guess weak-willed is a better way to say it. What I noticed a while ago is that my personality is either extremely amorphous or non-existent and I can mold it into whatever I want. And also I was bullied for almost 9 years of school time and have been an outcast since birth so I guess that contributed too. Don't dab into this too far, you're gonna make me question my identity again lol.>picrelThat looks like a super important powerful artifact from a 90's forgotten jrpg that only has 2 or 5 coverage videos on youtube and they're all japanese from year of 2008 or 2011.
>>79928418Well, I can definitely relate on the bullying and outcast bit. I've never really fit in and of course I was a bit of a punching bag for other kids. Also, no worries, I'm just poking fun. Also if you are a gay bottom then it's pretty normal from what I've seen to want to be a girl -- but that's a subject that gets into HSTS stuff.Wolbachia is something like a biological artefact with immense power though B^). Mitochondria are responsible for the domination of the group that eventually led to us over all of the other microbes. Wolbachia in a sense could morph to have other useful purposes but currently it values its own reproduction, likely because mitochondria fulfill the only role it could otherwise fill and they do it far better.Also, I tease you about the fujo stuff because it lines up so well and I just assumed you probably lied about being a guy to avoid harassment. The only way it'd line up more is if you were into mpreg and shipping a whole lot. Have another parasite, this one is a kind of barnacle as well and forms these bony growths. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DendrogasterThe genus name can effectively mean "tree stomach"
>>79928418>>79928542Also it's so fucking cold out right now. I'm not used to this heinous weather )':
>>79928542I'm not really gay, I prefer to think of myself as a "anythingsexual" I think, but because I've never dated anyone it's hard to say. When it comes to fictional characters I think the usual sexuality and psychoanalysis terminology don't apply to them because, well, they're not real, they're usually so refined and devoid of flaws that they're nearly perfect no matter how much a scumbag some of them may be in lore. *cough* Jimmy from Mouthwashing *cough*In other words, your preference in 2D doesn't really dictate what you are in real life, people who treat ficitonal characters (esp. those that are underage in lore) as if they're real confuse and amuse me. I personally had an encounter with a girl who "kinned" a character from some web show and we got into a fight because I apparentaly said something bad about her favourite. And also also was friends with another girl who I also got into a fight with because I "mistreated" her oc, like sis, it's a drawing, it doesn't have feelings.TL;DR Liking traps doesn't make you gay imo.>to avoid harassmentOn /r9k/? I always thought this board is at least 40% women.>mpreg and shippingMpreg is kinda gross but shipping is nice (if you don't engage in fandom discussions that is).As a little change, this is a fish I found in wikipedia and really liked. It's a green birdnosed wrasse.
waking up at almost 7 am again and taking it easybeen playing minecrap on my friend's server, he put together a "semi-vanilla" pack but i got him to include create so at least i'm not bored out of my mind here, lolsays the point is to make things look good, and boy do they look greati already love some of the catwalks in create deco
>>79928627>anythingsexual>having lots of female friends>callin' 'em "sis"B^) I'll stop with the teasing, I swear.Yeah, people will overlook so much for a fantasy compared to reality. However, I will say that if you like 3dpd traps then you are a little gay. The whole fantasy versus reality thing can stretch to so much too, I think a lot of people lack the ability when trying to figure out their trajectory in life to be very critical and harsh with what they imagine.>On /r9k/? I always thought this board is at least 40% women.I'd say it's probably closer to 80/20, but I meant more on the unwanted sexual advances front. I also figure if I was a girl on this board and I did want to meet a nice guy that I'd just lie about being a guy so I can get to know them first. I have my own weird qualms about how people treat me before they know my better qualities though, so I doubt many others would follow in that.>Mpreg is kinda grossNow you're dissuading my teasing B^).>As a little change, this is a fish I found in wikipedia and really liked. It's a green birdnosed wrasse.He reminds me of the elephant fish. From what I remember they were highly intelligent fish from Africa that can seemingly communicate somewhat through electric pulses in the water. Checking the wiki for them it does say they use it for communication too. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peters's_elephantnose_fish>>79928660I can't believe you're getting up as I'm getting ready to sleep. Also sounds like you're gonna have lots of fun later.
>>79928670guess your timezone is somewhere around the west coast then, if not asia>lots of fun later.i already am, except for this fucking render thread access violation that keeps crashing my game, lol
>>79928682Nope, I just sleep during the day B^). I live on the east coast. Also rip on the tech issue. Your drivers are up to date, right? That or I wonder if it's an OS problem, like if you're using linux
Yes.>>79928670I'm only calling them girls because that's what they are in the essence. In reality all of them were genderspecials with pronouns page. I honestly don't even remember how I ended up in their company, I know object show fandom is full of people like them but they were genuiely nice to me at first so I swallowed my transphobia and just accepted it3DPD isn't not my thing at all, I rejected it long ago.Oh hey, Peter's elephantnose. I like those too, they're cute.
>>79928689huh, so basically me a few days agonothing like gaming addiction to make me unfuck my sleep schedule by resisting sleep, lol>Your drivers are up to date, right?not really, gonna try updating them but i doubt that'll actually do anythingsome people saying to reinstall the jre but like, it doesn't make a fucking difference, lolunless i install another jre distribution, and even then it shouldn't matter muchi'm just wondering which mod is causing this
>>79928700>spoiler textI see, also I'm surprised. I wouldn't have figured you were transphobic, considering the yaoi stuff but you aren't stuck to the norm so it does make quite a deal of sense in hindsight. Surprisingly I'm in the opposite camp, I try to avoid indulging in 2d or fantasizing or thinking about romance. I don't want to be consumed by that part of me, I don't want to indulge if I can help it. My approaches to my own wellbeing shouldn't be emulated though. I've fucked with things people should never fuck with and genuinely hurt myself before because I disregard my own bodily integrity in unusual ways.>Oh hey, Peter's elephantnose. I like those too, they're cute.We just need to figure out how to breed them and fly river turtles in captivity... They're both wonderful and the elephantfish could be a good candidate for a super smart fish breeding program project in the future. But who would do something like that?https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pig-nosed_turtle>image limit reachedfug>>79928705wew, I try to do the opposite but it is a good way to fix it too. Daylight sucks and people are outside when the sun is up though )^:. Also, I see. How many mods do you have add new effects? It's probably whatever one does a unique effect or fucks with the skybox if I had to guess.
Bombfunk MC is really good, too bad people sleep on them or songs other than Freestyler.>>79928726I try to be understanding and open-minded, but most of the trans people I personally had experience with were narcissists, holier-than-thou or just annoying. I know I'm probably no better but I try to keep it myself if I don't like something. It's hard to be a good guy all the time, especially if intrusive thoughts race through the head 24/7.>breed them with fly river turtlesWhat if science discovers mice fish? Elephantnosed fish won't feel safe anymore lol.
>>79928726>the oppositemeh, doesn't really work for me like thatbeing an insomniac means i excel at resisting sleep, so i just stay up until my schedule is normal againuntil i inevitably stay up long enough to fuck it again, lol>How many mods do you have add new effects?there was iris but that's it, i disabled it a long time ago since i don't use shaderswe'll see if a driver update does the trick
>>79928757Oh man I haven't heard Freestyler in forever. Making me think of my childhood with that, since I've been stuck on weeb shit for so long.Also, same. If they weren't NPD they were BPD. BPD makes a lot of sense, given the sense of identity and emotional volatility stuff but BPD people are rarely ever fun to interact with, thus the moniker of "BPDemon." You need to stop having so many things in common with me, you'll make me feel less alone in the world )^:I think there is a good case to be made though that if regenerative medicine advances that the trans thing is going to largely be divided into two camps. The degenerate, antisocial types who'll be Slaaneshi futanari degenerates and a lot of gay men and lesbian women transitioning over to the other sex who will otherwise live rather normal lives, unseen.>What if science discovers mice fish? Elephantnosed fish won't feel safe anymore lol.We have sea mice at home B^) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aphrodita_aculeata>>79928764I've found that listening to depressing music and thinking really depressing and sad thoughts helps to get me to pass out. That's my go to most nights, otherwise I am pretty prone to staying up way too long.Are there any mods that have polygon altering effects? Going vaguely off when I was last doing shader code stuff, that would probably fuck with however they're going about rendering. Normally that's an issue with performance but I imagine it probably has some permission thing the mod doesn't clear for whatever reason.
>>79928787Speaking of music, one of the percs of knowing russian fluently (aside from understanding your teammates in CoD) is being able to experience the world of russian rock, which are usually either complete non sequitor or the most heart-wrenching ballads you ever heard. I recommend you check out some "classic" bands from 90's or 2000's, even if you don't understand a word it's worth a listen.>spoilerBut is it bad? I've made a friend in real life recently and he also tells me that we're so similiar. I think it's good when you have people close to you who you can relate to.>medicine advancesReminds me of a thread I read on a certain forum about homebrew hrt and it's hilarious how desperate some people are to get their hormones.
>>79928859Another perk is that you can use it like a lingua franca in most of eastern Europe too, right? Also I do have some songs from a Ukranian band in my playlists, Fleur or something along those lines. Lemme grab one song you'll probably cringe at. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xjsqzkpWfhc>But is it bad? I've made a friend in real life recently and he also tells me that we're so similiar. I think it's good when you have people close to you who you can relate to.It's not bad, I'm just jokin'. I'm far too used to having so little in common with people beyond very basic human things or things that are very basal to being male.>Reminds me of a thread I read on a certain forum about homebrew hrt and it's hilarious how desperate some people are to get their hormones.>imagine a concerned anime face hereI've heard horrific tales of bathtub estrogen that was being sold to kids with pubic hair in the vial. Also other vials, same company, with no hormone in it -- which may very well be the closest thing I could imagine for a divine intervention if it wasn't just total incompetence.Also, if they get super desperate I imagine they'd probably joke about distilling horse piss for estrogen and stuff. That or some degenerate posts about getting stuff from the piss of women. Fun and horrible medical history fact: The forefather of modern pregnancy tests involved injecting a woman's piss into a rabbit and dissecting it. The rabbit was of course alive when you injected piss into it. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rabbit_testI must now pass out, it was very fun talkin' to you Randalposter. Hope you enjoyed the horrific facts B^)Good night to Junas too o/
>>79928787>listening to depressing music and thinking really depressing and sad thoughts helps to get me to pass out.seriously? that just makes me even more unable to sleep, lolasmr helps me instead, as well as melatonin and calming teas (chamomile, lemongrass, passionfruit)try and look into other things to help you sleep because that's terribly destructive>Are there any mods that have polygon altering effects?a fair amount of them, i'm pretty surebut it's all limited to what minecraft can run, lolanyway it seems fixed now, at least i hope so, i haven't crashed yet>>79928885have a great night, anonthanks for talking to me today
I woke up at 10pm today. If I keep waking up later, eventually it will loop back around and I'll be waking up at a normal time again.
