anons this guy im close to is literally perfect and so kind, respectful, considerate, loyal, so funny, dislikes porn, is sympathetic to radfem views, is intelligent, charismatic, not materialistic, etc but i can't be with him and i feel like total shit that his energy is wasted on me when there are other girls that i know would be so much better for him and he's such a rare caliber of guy that really is in such high demand by other high quality women. he's such a high quality person that cares so deeply for other people. easily is the most empathetic man i've ever met. but i'm not even like a nerd and he kind of is so our interests are not there, and severely complicating circumstances prevent me from even being with a guy again and i keep unintentionally hurting him/breaking his heart and it's all for naught bc i literally know women like one of you guys would be better for him. he's suffering for no reason bc of me when i'm not what he needs and i'm literally making his life worse ffs.
i feel so terrible. idk wtf to do. i feel so guilty but like he's so much better off with someone else and i can't be that person for him and i feel so bad that i can't be.

TIL that my great grandpa was almost killed by the mafia in the 50s because his brother had committed suicide to avoid being killed by them and he owed the mafia a massive amount of debt. Just very interesting to learn. I did hear that he tended to take no shit and told everyone off who got his goat without a care in the world so I wouldn't be surprised if he told the mafia to go fuck themselves if they tried to force him to pay his brother's debt then they put a hit on him as a result.

When I was studying abroad in college, I was horribly depressed and isolated myself from my classmates as a result.
I started talking to one of my friends back at home more and more, first through text and then we started phoning each other. I brought my 3DS with me, so we started to play Animal Crossing together. We would be on the phone with each other while going on little "dates" in each other's towns and it was the closest thing I had to hanging out with any of my friends back at home. We would both wake up early/go to bed super late just to talk and play with each other. I'm no longer friends with this girl, but I often think back on those days.
I'm playing Pocket Camp a lot more these days, and I really hope they bring over a lot of the new furniture from here into New Horizones- especially the new summer festival furniture. I'd love to set up a little festival area in the summer and play with my friends. It's so lame but I love Animal Crossing so much. I feel so at peace when I play it, and it also lets me indulge in my need for new and cute things via furniture collecting.

I'm thinking about selling some video games and books I don't care about anymore or never really cared about. I feel dumb about buying games I never really played because of my lack of free time or motivation back then. I remember selling a lot of manga I liked a lot a few years ago and regretting it but now that I think about it it was a good decision because I knew I wouldn't read them again anyway. Hopefully I'll get a lot of money from that.
All of this is reminding me of how much I don't like downloading games instead of buying physical copies, it's not taking physical space so that's convenient but I don't like not being able to share, give or sell games I don't want anymore.

No. 445374
>>445355I only gained in my boobs, the rest of me stayed the same! Based on the research I did, some people did experience small weight gain (3-5 pounds) but it was water weight. Basically if you take too high of a dosage it might cause your body to retain water, which leads to bloating. From what I can tell the people who claimed to gain weight from msm were the ones taking high dosages (3000-8000 mg). If you take the recommended amount (1000-2000 mg) then your weight shouldn't be effected (minus the boobs). The brand I used was called OptiMSM and I took 2000 mg, if that helps.
I'd recommend giving it a try, it only cost like $10! For the best results you have to take it with vitamin c (so with orange juice or a vitamin c supplement). There's only four main side effects that people who take it experience:
>Will give you a headache if you don't drink water during the day. If I didn't drink water after taking my dosage I would get a mild headache, but after drinking a few sips I was fine. >Can give you weird dreams if you take it before bed. Some people get nightmares, but mostly it's just really vivid/realistic dreams. Should be fine if you take it earlier in the day tho.>Can make body hair grow really fast, I found myself shaving a little more often after I started taking it. >Can mess with your menstrual cycle; my period is normally super regular but after taking msm it came almost a week late; but it was also not as heavy and I didn't have cramps.Obviously every body is different, but msm seems to pretty consistent in its results and i'd trust it

My ex, my bestie, and their friend Ben went to undergrad together. At that time, my ex was not very nice to my friend Ben. However, I didn't become friends with Ben until after I broke up with my ex and they all graduated from undergrad.
My bff and Ben had a lot in common. Naturally, Ben developed a crush on my bff. However, my bff didn't like him back and it caused a lot of problems between them.
Instead, my bff liked my ex better even though they had less things in common. This hurt Ben's feelings.
Eventually, my bff developed a crush on my ex. The kicker was that my bff isn't the type of guy my friend likes. So Ben was really jealous after that. Sad :/

>>445559anon, congrats on finding an opportunity to get out of your
abusive household. have you had the chance to go to college at all or any work experience? do you have a support system of friends at all? if no to all of those questions then what i would first work on is finding an entry-level job such as retail (the holidays are coming up so that should be pretty easy) so you can at least have some money in your pocket, establish a routine, and start building your resume.
i think in your situation it will help to make a list of short-term and long-term goals and figure out what individual steps you need to take in order to achieve them. accomplishing the small steps instead of looking at the big picture can really help when you're feeling overwhelmed.
just try to take it a day at a time.

The flip between her fake ass happy persona to being fucking PISSED at her dog. Grabbing him and knocking him to the floor and spitting on him (or what sounded like spitting).

We had sex pretty regularly, like once a week, at his initiation, and he would enjoy himself and cum, but because he didn't think about sex 24/7 he thought he was ace. When I told him that was stupid he was like "not uh!!! I read asexual people can still like and have sex!!!!" (It's even funnier when you realise he used to be super pornsick.)
It's so fucking weird people put any amount of thought into such a non-issue. My husband and I have relatively low libidos but it's never even come up in conversation.

Honestly not sure if this belongs in this thread or the stupid questions one, but I'm putting it here because it just came out as a stupid thought in my head.
I wonder why people who buy those huge, guady looking diamond rings as an obvious flaunt of their wealth don't just buy a whole ass ring made of diamond? I found this ring, which was unveiled earlier this year and was cut from a lab grown diamond, but diamonds really aren't all that rare anyway so… Assuming someone doesn't grow at the rate that Feebz does, it's not like they would outgrow the ring, and diamonds are the hardest material blah blah shit.
I hate diamonds but now I'm sad because I think this ring actually looks cute lol

The MBTI stuff can be fun but I can never take it too seriously because I know this dumbass who's obsessed with being an ~INTJ~ and plasters it everywhere and talks about how super speshul she is all the time. She wants to be an edgelord so badly and it makes me laugh to think of her reading this shit about how INTJs are such cool edgy masterminds when she's airheaded as fuck, like legit one of the dumbest people I know, and flies off the handle because she has no control over her emotions and is insecure as hell.

I've taken a bunch of different MBTI tests and gotten different answers but I still get INTJ the most, and yeah it fits me BUT every thing you read about MBTI says INTJs are ~super rare and speshul~ yet almost every female I've ever seen who has taken an MBTI test has gotten INTJ. Not to mention one of the traits of being INTJ is supposed be that you're a critical thinker yet they just buy into all this Myers-Briggs bullshit even though there is literally no scientific evidence to back it up.

My mother likes to boomerpost on Facebook. She has over 4,000 friends and over 5,000 followers I believe. She gets constant thirst from the absolute nastiest guys. I looked through her photos on her phone (she lets me), and today I found memes of "feminism is cancer," "women are entitled," and all the typical shit an incel would post. She absolutely enables their behavior. I was completely dumfounded, because we always talk about how awful men are. She's the one who pinkpilled me at a young age, about the awful things men do that are just now gaining traction again, like "gender critical." We even had a discussion about it this week! She's a total pickme; all of her replies to the guys on her profile are flirtatious, and the guys honestly think they have a chance. These guys keep at it even though she says she's married, and a lot of them are married as well! Honestly, what the fuck. Ew.

blogpost incoming, sorry for the length
I finally figured out why I have these deep issues of hating everything related to performative femininity, wearing makeup, dresses, girly stuff and activities. It's because of my mom. Maybe this should go into the confession thread instead but I feel a bit of contempt towards women and girls that are over the top feminine, waifu types, housewives, and trad types. I know this isn't healthy and I know what I'm feeling is wrong but I can't dissociate that sort of appearance and interests from my mom and certain friends that have made me deeply repulsed of being a woman.
The reason being that my mom is that sort of trad type that is an ardent anti-feminist and thinks that the world would be a better place if we went back to good old days when women were in the kitchen and were at home with the kids and men were men. I cringe even typing this. I've also met other girls with similar thoughts and opinions and it doesn't matter how much I try, I just can't stop associating femininity with vapid housewife attitude. My mom's interests are gossip, soap operas, fashion, makeup, romcoms. I cannot but judge people with the same interests as stupid and empty shells with no ability to form their own opinion. I utterly hate my mother's urge to always appease men and gain a man's approval. For example, when I complained about getting catcalled my mom told me I should be happy because when I grow older, I will regret not getting catcalled. And when once there was a topic on TV about women that are into dominating men, my mom said that all women desire being dominated because it's in our nature which resulted in me having a disturbing relationship with other men. She completely mocked the metoo movement and even think Epstein did nothing wrong.
I'm aware that it's not a nice thing to say about my mother. Sometimes we get along just fine, but sometimes, I just want to cut all the ties and never speak to her again.
In contrast, my father's pretty chill and has no such opinion of women. I have no idea how these two got together.
No. 446886
>>446881Nah, that's pretty legit anon. Not the projection onto all feminine women, but disliking your mom for her shitty views. I think I'd flip if my mother held those beliefs.
If it helps at all, gender conforming women who hate men or who are at least progressive exist. I like dresses and skin care but fucking despise men at worst and want a reverse-trad FLR at best.
Ironically I went through a similar issue when I was presenting GNC myself because I thought I had to be submissive and uwu weak if I was feminine, what a joke. I used to get angry at myself for even making gestures that may be read as feminine and was always on the verge of flipping shit if I was interacting with a woman who had a high-pitched voice. Don't know if it's the same for you?
I hope you can overcome it since it is quite frustrating.
(By the way I'm not implying femininity will be your ~true form~ if you overcome this issue, that was just my personal case. Butch and stag women are based.)
No. 446889
>>446744If you've never done it before, just start out by looking at the nutritional information on the back of packets and become aware of how many calories, sugar and fat is in what you're eating. You may find that you start avoiding higher calorie foods from doing this.
About five years ago I started eating a strict keto diet because I kept getting brain fog and it was interfering with my ability to do my job as a bookkeeper. I used to write down everything I ate and then sit down at the end of the day with a calculator to work out my exact macros. It's easy enough to do once you know a few tricks. Supermarket websites will have all the nutritional information you need. The nutritional information will usually be given for 100g of product. For example if you ate 35g of chocolate, the easiest and quickest way to work out how many calories you consumed is by taking the number calories per 100g and then multiplying it by 0.35. So if 100g of chocolate contains 534 calories that multiplied by 0.35 is 186.9 and now you have the exact amount of calories you ate. If you ate 70g, you would multiply the value per 100g by 0.70. If you eat more than 100g, say 125g, the number you would need to multiply by would be 1.25. I hope that's understandable.

>>446886Thanks anon. I'm aware that my projection is stupid and it's embarrassing to admit it. Also, hearing that you sort of went through the same and overcame it gives me hope.

I still can't cry in front of others or even when I'm alone. Coincidentally, I developed anger issues that I'm working through right now.
I really appreciate what you wrote. It feels good knowing that I'm not alone. I don't think I could admit this anywhere else. And I feel like a piece of shit for writing shit about my mom but today was the last straw with the epstein bit.

>>446881I'd like to say that I sympathize with your situation, consider this though:
>I've also met other girls with similar thoughts and opinions and it doesn't matter how much I try, I just can't stop associating femininity with vapid housewife attitude.This could probably be corrected by just meeting more women, specifically what you might call professionals. What you do for a living or just who you're around all day can shape this.
I also feel like the radfem take on aspects of performative feminity being instruments of the patriarchy (like heels are meant to cripple us) to be kind of bullshit. Imo it's just too much of a stretch, though I do agree with most other radfem theories.
For me, I enjoy the ritualized aspect of "making myself up", it can be therapeutic in a way. Similarly how having a skin care routine helps me wind down and relax. I see it like taking extra time to pay attention to just yourself.
Anyways, best of luck to you anon. You sound like you already have a good head on your shoulders in regards to this issue, like recognizing it as a problem, so you'll be okay.

Unfortunately, all my previous work experience has been in an office environment where women were like carbon copies of my mom. I've had great friendships with other women but they were all GNC, or at the very least, they didn't wear makeup and didn't gossip.
I'm going to move places soon but regardless, I want to change how I feel about this. I never bothered to analyze my thoughts or talk about my feelings before because I thought it was stupid.

Watching the bpdfag sperg out in the ana thread makes me wonder if the person who caused me to stop streaming had BPD. She talked a lot in chat and hung out every day. Generally she was really nice. The channel got a little bigger, and I made some people mods, and she asked to be one, and I said sure, but once the chat gets more active and the mods can't keep up with filtering bad comments. There weren't a lot of bad comments to filter, so I thought it'd be a while.
The next day, there was around ten accounts that popped in and called me names and spammed curse words. I thought it was a freak occurrence, and everyone was doing okay with moderating, but it kept happening every day in increasing numbers. After a couple weeks of the random spamming, I was kind of anxious about it, and then one of the accounts, after insults, said something like "boy it looks like you need an actual moderator" and the girl who I promised mod to agreed in chat.
It hit me that she was making all the accounts, creating a toxic enough environment that would get her mod. I banned her quietly and told my other mods my suspicions, and waited to see what happened next.
Several "friends" of the girl, all on new accounts joined and demanded to know why she was banned, what she did wrong, why it was wrong. That I was mistaken, that it couldn't be proven. I told her friends I was disappointed in her, and that I may unban her in the future, but not right now.
Then the account attacks increased. More people joining, but this time starting or joining a conversation innocently, then landing insults that were really specific. It went on for weeks. I didn't really know what to do, so I took a break for two weeks without telling anyone. It wasn't until the break that I realized how much stress that dealing with that girl had caused me. I stopped streaming altogether.
I always wondered why it happened. It was really weird and tiring and toxic. I wasn't even a large stream to obsess over… but yeah I was just reminded of the behaviour that she exhibited. I realize it must've been mental. If not BPD then something else.

I wish I wasn't so garbage at games. My favorite game is Animal Crossing because it's so chill and I can still get a nice house and pretty town just by spending a few hours here and there working on it. I don't have to be a "super good gamer" to get all the best stuff.
I bought a Switch almost a year ago by now, but I haven't finished any of the games I bought. I first bought BoTW but I stopped shortly after picking it up because I'm so god fucking awful at fighting monsters and it stresses me out that weapons will break after some time, so it amps up my hoarding mentality to save all of my weapons. I picked it up again recently but I'm stressed about having to do the Vah Ruta dungeon because I fucking suck at fighting things. I literally spent hours just getting to the Zora domain in the first place because I didn't want to walk the main path. I kept trying to find other ways through the mountains before I eventually settled on making my way by following the path but still staying far off of it to avoid fighting. I see people do speedruns and shit but my brain is so bad at timing and pressing buttons correctly and quick enough. I know there's no point in being a "good gamer," but I'd like to just enjoy games without getting easily frustrated because I fucking suck and can't stop dying.

>>447350Absolutely do that! Just ignore the game quests for now and climb up mountains. Once you get more stamina (which you can get as well once you get more shrines) you can climb up pretty much everything. If you have any more questions, anons can probably answer in the games thread on /m/. But just fucking around climbing shit, finding shrines, and avoiding everyone for the time-being is a great way to get more gear/hearts/travel points.

Man, so glad i dumped all those shitty friends. They wanted me to listen when they had to vent, babble and explore their creativity, but didn't want to be there for when i wanted to. Fuckers came back crying when i left them without saying a word. Never stick with bitches who will lie to your face, but run towards you crying when you put up a defense.

There's a public database about all property sales in NYC and I shifted through that but then I realized I probably need to find information on the tenants rather than owners and I don't think that information is going to be easy to find… The NYPL listed a whole bunch of online databases but most of them don't have the info I'm looking for and it looks like there might be more info in the physical archives so maybe one of these days I'll stop into the library and take a look. It's really frustrating going around in circles but feels so satisfying.

I actually love when I see some handmaiden or pick-me talking shit about women on Twitter, and then I reverse search their profile pic (usually an attractive woman) and get multiple pages of results.
Either it's a man who's too stupid to catfish well (and we know this to be common), or a pick-me who's insecure as shit (and we also know this to be common).
I sometimes consider actually using Twitter just to call these people out, but it's not really worth it.
Keep talking tough and picking at other people's appearances. You already know your own level of ugliness is so bad that it wasn't even fit for a profile picture.

Shane Dawson just announced he has misophonia and it makes me worry that a bunch of his fans will read about it and be like “omggg, chewing is so annoying, i totally have misophonia too!!!” because they misunderstand that it’s a severe disorder. I don’t know if it’s dumb to care, but things like that infuriate me since having misophonia has meant that I haven’t had a meal with either of my parents for maybe 7-8yrs now and that certain noises have enraged me to the point of tears or wanting to hurt myself.

A couple of years ago I had something really weird happening to me.
It was late evening and I was doing something on the laptop, playing a game iirc. Then at some point it's like I lost awareness of my surroundings… then I snapped out of it, and when I did, I felt extremely confused and forgot everything I had been doing for the last hour. I kept on feeling weird, confused and scared until I went to sleep, and on the next day I had a migraine episode (I have migraine sometimes).
Someone suggested to me that it could've been a small stroke. What do you think…?

Someone mentioned 7cups on another thread and I logged into a really old email address yesterday and found an email about me deleting my kik and it made me remember that time I used 7cups. I didn't use any paid professional services from it, just talked to the free users. Experience was meh, but this one fucking dude really stood out.
I was going through a crazy rough time in my life, studying abroad in a foreign country (no one else from my school went that year so I was completely on my own making friends), and super depressed from the combination of loneliness from lack of friends and a stupid fuckboy that I got caught up with (pls no bully I know it was stupid and it's been like 3 years- I've learned to love myself now). I can't remember if this was before or after I started going to my school's counselor, but fuck man. I wish I had the brains to screencap all of it but I didn't. By the time my friends woke up (I was halfway across the world so 13 hour time difference) and I talked to them about it, this was the only screenshot I grabbed. I was gonna send more from the beginning but didn't realize that older messages would just be deleted or whatever. Looking back on it now I'm laughing because holy shit it's so cringey, but man was I crazy uncomfortable. He made me download kik and I sent like 3 messages tops, then reported him on 7cups, and deleted my kik (hence the email).
I'm also pretty sure I was hesitant to report him in the first place because he had crazy good reviews from a fuck ton of other people. Everyone was saying how he was so understanding and helpful to them… like uhh, did we deal with the same person? Anyway, I'll probably never go back to that site.

Wasn't there a similar thing going on with BTS or some other kpop group a few months ago? Some violent shit was going down in some neighborhood and they were touring that city a few days and fans were like "BTS PLEASE BE SAFE. TELL THEM IT'S OKAY TO DELAY THEIR CONCERT IF THEY NEED TO"

I saw "Disconnect" a few months ago and I really liked it. There was this scene where a camboy is talking to a woman about his job and she says something like "why would you sell yourself??".
So he starts asking her how much would she accept for fucking a homeless/hobo guy. She settled on 5 million (?) and he smiled saying "everybody has a price" (pic related).
Would you accept the money? Any amount is valid. Do you think you have a price?
PS: There was a girl I asked this question who said "are you implying homeless guys are gross????". I keked too hard when she asked that, I guess she wanted to be ~uwu smart and understanding~.

i dislike when people say "___ is a grown ass adult!!" as if that means they're necessarily capable of thinking clearly. most adults are not especially intelligent, knowledgeable, or mature. and unrelated but lots of people have experienced abuse that prevents them from maturing, and plenty of people in general are just impulsive and immature. most 50 year olds i know are not self aware.

>>453471I only get annoyed when people use "grown ass" in context of talking about someone relatively young, say early 20s.
I don't really consider people true adults until they're established and in their 30s. It's really stupid to be so harsh on people who for the most part are finally finishing their educations, are figuring out their living situations, and working on relationships. There's ten times as many expectations and responsibilities that young people are expected to have today as opposed to young people 100 years ago and that's a fact.

>>453795Sorry for the incoming blogpost but I can kind of relate to that.
I haven't had a friend since I was around 15 and I'm 24 now. I don't know if I would say I don't 'need' friends but I hardly ever think about it anymore and have no desire to try to make any. It's just more comfortable to be alone because it's how I've always been as an adult. I don't have a great life or anything and am pretty sad but most of my negative feelings stem from career failures and being ugly/inferior, not from not having friends. Although it's probably all related. The main negative thing is that I feel like I'm emotionally stunted from not having normal friendships/relationships, so if I ever tried again it would be hard to form bonds.
Even if someone doesn't need friends or prefers being alone I think they would still benefit from having friends. It just seems like part of being a well adjusted human being. Basically what I'm saying is that eventually you get so used to not having any that it feels like you don't need any because you've made it this far without any.

I just got back from Starbucks, the barista was so damn cute. Normally, I might of said hello to him, but I ordered online and he was busy with other customers so I got my coffee and left. It's nice to start to feel things for other people again, especially after a previous bad relationship where I was ghosted… for a barista. I've been really depressed these last couple of months, and feeling that way for the first time in almost a year was nice and bittersweet.

Me and some friends were talking about how we feel about boyfriends watching porn, and one who's gay started going on about how it's natural and said she hasn't met a single guy who doesn't enjoy it. She also said girls who are against it are way too up-tight and just wrong.
I got annoyed at that, so I was like "Aren't you a lesbian? Stay in your lane" half-jokingly. Everyone went silent, then she said "Isn't that sad? The lesbian knows more about men than you", and I just responded "Evidently not" and someone just changed the subject before it got too heated. Things were kind of tense after that.
One of our mutual friends later texted me saying that she thought the "stay in your lane" thing was fucked up and I should apologize for the sake of peace, but I didn't reply. I don't see anything wrong with what I said.
She doesn't date men. Who the fuck is she to tell us what we should put up with when it comes to them? I do kind of wish I hadn't said that, but just gone full pink pill, told her porn actively harms women, anyone who supports it is disgusting, and to fuck off with her libfem bullshit. But I don't think anyone in the group would've supported me on that, they don't know much about this kind of thing and a lot of them are also libfems.
I'm still somewhat pissed. Who was in the wrong here??

Lesbians very rarely have to deal with pornsickness in their partner and my guess is she's never even seen enough porn to know how horrifically
abusive and cruel to women it is. I think you should apologize for saying it so harshly, but also point blank tell her she also needs to apologize for dismissing your feelings on a subject she actually DOESN'T know anything about like she thinks. Explain that while "stay in your lane" was a mean way to put it, she doesn't know what it's like to date a man who regularly looks at porn. Explain to her how it negatively impacts your sex life tremendously: men having issues with getting hard or cumming, men expecting/pressuring for things you don't want to do, needing to hurt women to be aroused, thinking women should look like blow up dolls, etc. Not to mention how it's an industry fueled by desperate women selling their bodies in the most degrading ways.

It was late at night and she had already gone to bed, the only light on was my desk lamp and I was working on an assignment when she suddenly laughed. I thought she was awake so I said "what?" since she sounds so clear when she sleep talks that she sounds awake, but she didn't answer. Then suddenly she said "why's there a child in here?" Absolutely freaked me the fuck out.
I asked her about it the next morning and she said she had a dream where she was in a classroom teaching some kids, but had to change in the classroom for some reason? They moved the kids out so she was supposed to be alone, but one kid got in and that's why she asked lol. Usually it's harmless nonsensical thing, but this one time really freaked me out.

>>454622You're absolutely in the right.
What would we say to gay men being opinionated about women? That they should shut it because it's none of their business.
So why should a lesbian be allowed to give you unsolicited "advice" when it comes to relationships with men - something she has zero knowledge about? She was basically backstabbing you by trying to teach you how to be a good little straight woman.
Your friends are likely only trying to fish for woke points by being on the side of the lgbtblahblah "
victim", no normal woman would be okay with her partner jerking it to others. Saying "all" of them do that also shows how lowly she thinks of men, including you and your friends boyfriends.

Obviously I don't have the whole story (and I'm not a doctor anyways) but you can have symptoms of BPD without actually having it (just for example, having a bad self esteem along with anger issues and mood swings doesn't automatically mean you have BPD) and splitting can sometimes be a stand-alone "ego preservation" mechanism and it most likely is if you don't have any other of the life-damaging symptoms of BPD, either way talk to a professional.

I think that you're focusing more on the inconvenience of having to grow it out in the future and not focusing on whether or not you genuinely like your hair at that length.

>>456708The same video with a tall man bullying the hell out of a short girl doesn't exist though - and never will. There wouldn't even exist enough short girls "slurs" and jokes for that.
It just really annoys me, that while taller men are probably cruel to short guys and short/average women reject them despite not necessarily being taller than short guys, the same short guys decide to take their anger out on tall women instead. As if we didn't get enough shit from others already.

>>456719>>456722nothing strange about it, tall men can shit on anyone more easily, so short men just shit on who they can shit on easily, women, and women can shit on eachother easily so that's what we do.
it's terrible but it makes sense. i personally go out of my way to call people out regardless because i couldn't care less about male power, it really pisses them off when they think they're at the top of the food chain.

I should be more thankful I live in such a beautiful area, even if I do miss the simpler days of childhood. I plan on moving soon anyway, I can't afford to stay much longer. My childhood friends left years ago. No one can really afford to stay except those on social programs and the people who are funding the construction. The middle class is being driven out. I live two streets away from a house that cost 2 million USD to build. I live in a small cottage type home my parents paid $100k for. To put it roughly, minimum wage is $29k a year here because you rarely get employed full time.
Honestly, there aren't really any jobs here either aside from grocery stores and a bowling alley a few miles away. Most people I know work about a 45 minute to 2 hour drive away in another city.

>>457192Yeah. It feels smaller, because it IS getting smaller, as more and more sites get bought up by the same Google/Amazon/Whatever giants and more and more people use the web while less make their own content. I remember people making their own websites for themselves with Piczo, now people don’t even bother with custom Tumblrs with those fancy themes because everyone has Twitter or Instagram with 0 customization. Like the other anon said it’s sterile and the same shit all the time.
I was born in 97 so I hardly remember life without the internet or a computer but since the mid 2000’s the internet and its culture has changed so much and absorbed other parts of my life I don’t want it to be in (I liked it for fandom things and gaming but now it’s for news, politics, celebrities, jobs, can’t even befriend someone in real life without eventually being given their social media or referencing obnoxious memes when I used to feel like such a cool kid for knowing all muh trollfaces). I think: "there has to be more to life than this" and that thought gives me hope that I can exist without needing to be online all the time. Maybe the poor fucks who were born after 2005 will find some kind of instinct that will make them look beyond the internet that seemingly gives them everything.
It feels really pathetic whenever I reflect on my interactions with friends and discover most of what we say is shit about memes, "
oof", "big F" and trying to verbalise reaction images because we forgot how to talk like… whatever came before this. I don’t even feel human. Am I a fucking NPC?

>>457261I remember complaining about all of this in another thread. I agree with you, with how society works now you're almost forced to use the internet for basic social interactions even with people you know irl and necessary things like job hunting, paying taxes, the news, etc. I remember as a teen I spent a lot of time making friends with people my age on forums and blogs and I wasn't allowed to have a mobile phone (no smartphones yet at the time) and to go outside so I had a hard time making friends, but now that it's the reverse I feel like I have a hard time meeting new people outside the internet because interactions irl became so different. If you don't have a smartphone with all social media possible good luck keeping up with what your friends and family do because they post everything online and expect you to read and watch everything before having a normal conversation with them irl. Obviously that's an exaggeration since it depends on each person a lot but you get the idea overall. Now if you don't know about minor e-celebrities on tiktok doing some dumb shit again some people are going to act like you forgot who Mariah Carey is.
>now people don’t even bother with custom Tumblrs with those fancy themes because everyone has Twitter or Instagram with 0 customization.I remember you could customize your twitter profile a little until early 2014 or 2015, you could add a banner and a background. People didn't like it at all but they don't care anymore.
I think a lot of this has to do with how everyone uses smartphones for everything now and all the time, and even before that it started with fb being accessible to everyone and not just college students and graduates. Everything is less niche now, and I don't remember myspace being as mainstream as tumblr is for example
the actual equivalent for frogs like me would be more like comparing tumblr and skyblog, they're both blogging platforms but tumblr is just used to reblog other people's shit by most users, unlike lj, myspace, skyblog, etc..

I was having a good day, until I washed my hair and inspected my scalp thouroughly because I saw a grey hair.
Well, turns out I have many now, too many to rip them out like I used to do until now. I'm only 24, goddammit. And I'm a brunette. And my parents didn't go grey so early. Why the fuck is it happening? I really didn't need this shit too, on top of all the things I have to take care of. I already have problematic skin and meh hair, plus other stuff, and I'm broke.
For the moment they can only be seen if I do a scalp check because they're within the deepest layer of hair, but you can still see some if you look with attention under daylight.

>>457261I think the worst part is how all of this has affected my attention span. I remember reading 100s of books a year as a kid and I was really big into watching films. I'd go to the library/rental place and just pick whatever off the shelf. I even remember playing video games for hours trying to complete one specific level. Once the internet came along, I was making loads of online friends.
Fast forward to college and I really struggled to even read one paragraph for class. I don't have the patience to watch a 2 hour film or read a book without reading reviews to see if I'll enjoy it first. I don't have the energy to get to know people anymore and tbh whenever I do get to know someone beyond a surface level (or referencing memes, as you said lol), I end up falling out with them. Maybe it's all a symptom of getting older but I'm kind of jealous of the generation older than me because they still enjoy going to the cinema or reading or painting while me and my friends just watch old vines and get drunk when we meet up.

>>457261Man anon, I loved reading this haha. This is pretty much exactly what I was thinking about the other day. I love browsing forums and such but I feel like they've gotten so niche as social media has taken over everything and that's where the majority of discussions take place. I just really dislike it's expected and encouraged nowadays that you have to put your whole life online, like your job, friends, convos, photos, keeping everyone updated etc. It's so unhealthy in the long run. The kids growing up today are fucked because their dependence of the internet is only gonna get worse. Like before we could get on by easily without many things that have been introduced in the modern age, why do we feel like we suddenly can't live without them? I feel like we're getting tricked into thinking we need this shit in our lives when it's only poison
Also, this is gonna sound so snobby af, but I hate the way people use the internet as an excuse to just talk so stupidly. Like they use certain words and ways of talking and phrases etc that drive me up the wall and make them look so moronic. Even worse is that people say this shit in real life, it's so embarrassing. I don't get why they can't at least type in a more sophisticated manner

>>457269I finally found that other graphic which was more relevant which I would have attached in that original post. This shit is real. It’s a little outdated since the most recent year is 2014 and I’m curious as to what the internet looks like now. Probably even worse.
>>457283I can absolutely relate to that. I spent so much time online as a teenager because I was socially awkward but now real life interactions have to involve the internet when I want to practice socialising like a normal human being. Hey, if the internet has done at least 1 good thing today it’s letting a frog and a bong talk without going to war.
I thank my RPG games and older-era internet for teaching me to stay inquisitive and search things out in person rather than turn to the ~magic box~ and ask it questions it will try to shill products on. Page 1 of Google search results is basically a glorified ad list. Hey Leeloo, you wanna know what war is? Well you’d better look it up in a textbook because the computer just wants to conscript me and tell me _ politician is terrible because he looked ugly while eating some food in a candid once! (Yeah, that was real.)
>>457423I definitely recall a study out there about heavy internet usage inducing ADD-like symptoms in people, something about their neuroplasticity? I know having Tumblr sandblasted my working memory (and everything else) to shit when, before, the internet was more of a digital encyclopaedia I’d spend evenings reading articles/stories from. And it’s sad to me that hardly anyone questions it. I’m acquaintances with older people who basically roll over and bow down to the magical search engine that can tell me everything, and how "wow, technology has come so far". Except it’s still a tool, one that can be misused or just plain break. Why keep in touch with whoever when you can see how they are on Facebook? Except I don’t want to do that (and I don’t have Fuckbook anyway), I want to physically meet them, talk to them, walk around the street for some fresh air with them. And this is coming from someone who is fighting agoraphobia.
And why take my phone in the bath with me (with all the risks) when I can take my physical diary and a pen with me? A book is just as good and I can decorate it with things, the physical act of writing forces my brain to focus on one thought at a time and not ADHD around, and since I am very privacy-minded a physical diary circumvents all the problems with my personal life being stored as data on a cloud (aka: someone else’s computer).
>>457447One of the differences I remember most is how it was drilled into us to never give our name, phone numbers or address online to strangers. Now it’s mandatory to give a phone number if you want to sign up anywhere. I don’t know anyone younger than me but those YouTube channels ‘led’ by tweens gives me a bad feeling. Did we not learn that fame isn’t everything? Some random person’s son or daughter should not be a public figure with several thousand people following them. I can’t worry about it too much but I question if anyone who’s internet era was 2012+ has the critical thinking to avoid click bait or understand the ways in which content is only being shoved in your face to keep you occupied and them monetised. Things are a lot more sophisticated now, it’s not like a page will be obvious back-alley bait trying to steal your credit card when it’s a legitimate company that controls everything you see until "hey I guess I’ll buy that minecraft T shirt for my son after all, he loves it!"
>>457595 I don’t really use SM (I stick to forums and chans) but I have a problem with the internet anyway so I’ll honour it in my own way. Definitely encourage people you know irl to try it out.

I'm really terrible and I'm sure if I had someone watching me play they'd be ridiculously frustrated by the roundabout and stubborn ways I go about climbing up a tower or getting anywhere, but I'm having a lot of fun exploring the map and thinking up stupid but unconventional ways to make my way somewhere.

college anons who like ramen; I'd seriously recommend giving the nissin raoh a try, that or the sapporo ichiban brand (the original is the best imo, they also have the "chow mein" dish which is more like a soy saucy fried noodle dish). buy one pack locally if you can find it, and if you like it, it's well worth that you can buy it in bulk for cheaper online.
was stingy on instant ramen for awhile but the more "authentic" stuff from the asian aisle of the grocery store brought me back bc it's way better than the nasty 25 cent shit. the broth in this miso pack is particularly good.

>>457980>>457932We’re not missing a lot, I can promise that. It’s only a few moments of being shocked and outraged at whatever e-drama is happening when I’m getting older every day and I want to grow and learn stuff with my time on this earth. Which, by the way, our peasant ancestors coped just fine on without being connected to a device telling them to be obsessed with some random fuck the next realm over who’s cancelling his cobbler for making him the wrong shoes. Social media is an actual chore to use. Those guides on how to grow and maintain a follower base that tell you to post in certain times of the day seem ridiculous to me, it’s practically a job for 0 satisfaction. Instead of working on their ‘brand’, people should work on their personalities and things wouldn’t feel so vapid and manufactured.
Sometimes I wonder about how being off social media would affect dating because I’m burned from online dating and want to meet someone who doesn’t know what a bloody meme is but the chances of that is 0. I’m a little nerdy & into computers but I’d rather date someone who doesn’t share that hobby because whew lad, the amount of pathetic guys who misplace all their self worth into their e-peen and streaming/gaming career at the cost of their hygiene and social skills! One of my friends talks about how he got pretty big in DOTA tournaments and my eyes just glaze over because it’s not something to admire, in what way is straining yourself at a desk clicking on things in a room with other sweaty men supposed to be impressive? The only thing impressive about that was the pay check which he saw less than 10% of as the sharks took their cut.
Anyway, I dislike Discord in particular because of its nature as closed off little rooms. I remember fooling around on Chatango and IRC but all the Discord groups feel so bland and cliquey for some reason, and there’s always one asshole mod. I don’t chat with that kind of slang either and it’s discomforting having to change the way I speak to attempt to connect with someone who only has "mood" to say to me.
Yes, and…????
I can’t even remember any sites I went on before 2012, Quizilla and Piczo? Neopets is a cheat answer. I miss those weird but aesthetically pleasing ‘shrines’ people made for their favourite characters, those were standalone sites that were like wikis all of their own for just one character with some fanart and stories to go with it. But now I’m just getting nostalgic.

I am not a fan of how pugs got changed throughout the years. I am all for reverting the breed to how it used to be (bigger snout and smaller eyes). If it would be possible, I would buy a retromops, but there are no reputable breeders.
I still love my pug and do everything so that he lives a comfortable and happy life, like plenty of responsible pug owners.

I kind of miss YouTube culture from back in like 2007-2011.
I miss there being YT groups, private messaging and communities, too. No idea why they got rid of that.
Also, comment sections were even trashier back then, if you can imagine that. It was fun reading a particularly inflammatory comment, going on to the troll's channel and seeing their comment section in shambles from people fighting with them, with each other, with thin air, etc. No one has time for that anymore unless it's a celebrity, lmao.

Has anyone heard of Kris Gage who writes "essays" on Medium? Apart from her fluffy "writing" about MBTI (bullshit, more concisely), she seems like a Cool Girl type and that's pretty frustrating, since she's a 30-something.
For example:
https://krisgage.com/2017/07/17/friendship-is-a-toxic-waste-of-time/
Some points, such as some friendships being "codependent" and "
toxic", do ring true, but it seems like she's just so vehemently against friendship. Glossing over her points, it seems like she's never had healthy relationships with good boundaries, with people who share common interests.
Like goddamn, this passage makes me snort out loud:
> I rode a motorcycle cross-country in the middle of Midwest winter. I went from making six digits, then owning my own business, to being a bartender. I’m an attractive woman in her early 30’s and marriage is nowhere near the top of my list of priorities.Wow, congrats. You sound so unique. Not.
The other thing that pisses me off is that a lot of people think she's an amazing writer, but she sounds like an edgy teenager trying to sound wise. Nothing amazing about that.

My fiance proposed to me about a month ago with a dummy ring and is letting me pick out my own ring myself. We kinda live in bumfuck nowhere without any fine jewelry stores to access easily, so I was planning on ordering online. I fell in love with a custom ring I made on a site, then saw how suspiciously cheap it was and investigated reviews. They have overwhelmingly positive ones (that feel almost fake) but the critical reviews seem to think they don't use real diamonds/gems or use bad cuts.
I guess what I'm asking is, anyone know of a reputable place to buy an engagement ring online? Budget is roughly 2k USD. I just want something sparkly and elegant, not necessarily the most expensive looking.

My dad was off all of last week and I was really looking forward to spending time with him. He wanted to go out of state but the plans just fell through (no proper planning/buying tickets in advance/research/I can't really afford to travel anywhere atm), but it's still just nice to spend time with my dad. Unfortunately, we got into a 'fight' because he was upset that I bought a tiny bottle of handsoap for the kitchen. He said "seriously, stop buying stuff, there's no counter space and look at how little room I have to work with" yet everything he pointed to was his lol. I have eczema and dishsoap irritates the fuck out of my hands so I got fed up and bought handsoap for myself to use.
Anyway, our fights are usually just ignoring each other and giving each other the silent treatment. He finally talked to me yesterday, which was the last day of his week long break off of work. Now I'm just kind of sad because I hate it when he gets all huffy and whatever (speaking to him while he's still giving me the silent treatment doesn't work and he just snaps back, I've learned to wait it out), but we rarely get to see each other because of our work schedules. Just the other week was his birthday and I stayed up late for once and he said "I wish you would stay up late on the weekends so that we could talk when I come home" since I go to bed by 10pm/wake up at 6am everyday, even on the weekends. I try my best to avoid conflict and appease my parents, even if I do think they're being absolutely fucking ridiculous and stupid, because I realized their time is finite and the thing I'm terrified the most of is something bad happening to one of us while we're fighting and then that's the end.
Not much I can do now but I might buy a slice of black forest cake (his favorite) and leave it in the fridge for him.

>>460045It might be because TV series usually cast people in their 20s to play teenagers, so their idea of age is warped. It might be because men are attracted to youth in itself rather than actual attractiveness, and they exaggerate their appearance in their mind.
One of the most glaring examples I can think of is Japanese school girls. They are massively fetishized, but if you ever actually see them IRL… 99% are just frumpy kids, totally normal for their age. Their skirts go to their knees, they can't wear makeup, they don't do anything with their hair, they look a bit square with their blazers, typical acne/greasiness etc. The girls in their 20s are gorgeous though, because they have the money and opportunity to dress up and so on. I wonder if schoolgirls are so fetishized is because they
aren't hot IRL and Japanese men create tonnes of schoolgirl porn to compensate (the way they create a tonne of big tit porn because the girls there aren't very busty).

>>460046There are a lot of bad qualities to him and I've posted about him a bunch of times in the vent thread haha. I've been dealing with it my whole life which I realize isn't the best thing, but he's toned it down as I got older (and I left for college/studied abroad a few times so he held back his hissyfits or else I just straight up wouldn't call home for weeks). He takes it out on my mom sometimes (never physically, just yells) and sometimes it makes me wish they would divorce, but I know my dad is so financially irresponsible he'd end up living out of his car in no time and the thought of that makes me really sad.
There are times when I really can't fucking stand him and I know the terrible qualities he has are
the worst and that I shouldn't put up with them, especially as an adult, but I know he's trying his best to be a good dad. I chalk up a lot of his anger management issues to upbringing since a lot of my uncles tend to be the same way (I'd go as far to say that out of all of them, my dad is probably the tamest. Leaving his home country and raising his one daughter in America did some good for him, I guess).
Thankfully I'm a lesbian, so at least I won't be dealing with any manchildren after my dad.

Any of you ladies into skateboarding?
I'm like an absolute beginner at the tender age of 22, got a shitty plastic mini cruiser in July bc I've always wanted to get into skating but I'm very shy about like moving my body in front of others and the skatepark in my hometown was just overrun with teen boys so I avoided even walking near it kek. I chose it bc it was like 20 euros so in case it turned out I hated skating it wouldn't be a big loss you know. I haven't skated much bc I'm still shy and paranoid of people judging me lol (I know no one cares but I just can't get over it you know) so I only do it around like 2am around the more deserted sidewalks of my neighborhood but it's fun! Can't do much else besides pushing and like some semblance of turning as I haven't really practiced much due to my aforementioned mental retardation and the fact I had to work a lot of night shift overtime so I didn't get that many free nights. Considering buying a normal board from my bonus at the end of the next week but not sure if I should?

What do you guys think of this kid? He lures predators by posing as a 12, 13, 14 yo girl or boy and confronts them and gives evidence to the police or tips or whatever. He seems like a pretty likeable and fairly intelligent guy, but I feel like being a young guy raised on the internet (he's a computer programmer), maybe he isn't genuine about actually caring about this issue, though he is very believable in how he acts and has an interesting personality.

The police knew that a sting was in the process, they knew that they had to be there when the pedos were lured in, and they KNEW THAT THEY HAD LEGIT, LEGAL EVIDENCE. And during the actual sting, the police would actually arrest the pedo. Because it was all calculated.
This dumb neanderthal-lookin' ass thinks he's hot shit for luring in a pedo and then screeching "hehe I knew it!" during the meetup while the pedo runs away. The PEDO runs away UNSCATHED. And then this idiot is just left in a Target parking lot feeling like he actually did something? Fuck off.
So, basically, I hate this fucking moron. He's literally just warning pedos what to look out for so that next time they can get away with it. No police backup, no legal backup, no nothing. Police do not care about your antics unless you are a legitimate organization and you have made a deal with them.
I don't know if he actually cares, but from what I've said, yeah. I don't think he gives a shit beyond being a "haha got 'em!" youtuber who never really got anyone at all. It's like when Kiwifarms collects shit on Johnathan Yaniv thinking that they totally captured a predator, but requirements for arresting a dude online are more specific than singing "tampon man."

I got a shitload of ANTM clips in my YT recommendations for some reason, and it's good for mindless entertainment, but I don't get why Tyra Banks gets away with being so awful.
>makes girls cut their hair if they seem too confident, sometimes piling more shit on that clearly has no use except to break them down further, only to send them home packing
>lets her judges make unnecessary sideways comments without ever standing up for the girls (at best, she just looks in their direction with a disapproving look and some retarded "tense" sound effect plays, or at worst, she makes weird or shitty comments herself)
>dismisses the stress the girls go through, and sometimes literally just spergs out at them for no good reason (one she yelled at because she didn't break down and cry at being sent home, the iconic "we were all rooting for you" video)
There's a line between being tough to show the contestants that it's a harsh industry, and just being a bully. Half of this shit just feels like Tyra trying to live out her dream of LARPing as Naomi Campbell with her trademark "alpha bitch" attitude. The problem is, she doesn't really come off as naturally strong enough to pull it off, so the whole thing just borders on intolerable. How do people not find her unlikable?

>>460245I'm the same way. Lately though I've been spending more time with a girl I met at uni and I'm really glad about it. I feel like generally time together with guys is mostly playing videogames and watching stuff together, conversations being about media or more abstract ideas. With women it's a lot more talking about our lives, feelings, exchanging advice. While I really enjoy both types of hanging out I did miss talking about more personal things. Especially sex, it's nice to talk about it irl for a change and from a female perspective.
For whatever reason I do feel way more insecure and afraid to make them hate me somehow with women than with men. Maybe it's because I want to be friends a little too badly.
No. 460302
>>460294I have come to believe based on various pieces of evidence, my own experiences and reading others, that men kinda have a "men's network" via group chats and forums, where they spread information about specific girlfriends and local women among the group. Guys at school or in certain hobby groups sharing nudes they obtained among the whole group, or guys have stalker groups where they post photos of local women along with their current locations. A link about guys sharing nudes of their girlfriends on a forum in order to negatively discuss her body with strangers was even posted on lolcow a few days ago. It's common enough that the idea of a man working completely alone is quite unlikely, unless he is a true hermit NEET.

I think when they don't do it on 4chan kids these days hang around discord, a shit ton of private discords are giving predators and pedos a space to hang around and its pretty hard to blow a whistle if only perverts have the link.
Here in Latam there is Nido.org, its the worst, and if you research about them you'll be disturbed, is straight up men planning to rape, dox, kidnap and do all sorts of shit to women irl, the nudes are the tamer thing that goes on there, the owner was facing criminal charges recently and he killed himself, i don't know if the site is still up but they had discords groups were they planned assaults and i am completely sure that those are either still up or they created new ones because on discord its that fucking easy.

>>460486shitty man but taking birth control, for most women isn't some sacrificing health,end it all drug, most women rarely notice anything when taking birth control, all it does is just change your hormones and there are very low doses of it too, if taking birth control pills is considered "sacrificing your health and body/mental state" then why not protest soy and companies who use soy (literally most restaurants and fast food places), soy contains even higher amounts of hormones than birth control but no one does anything, almost anything you eat or drink can affect your hormones, hormones aren't poison anon, birth control companies aren't out to get you

No. 460547
>>460484You're not exactly wrong on any point, but if your friend has been actually bleeding for two months, she's on the wrong pill. Unfortunately with hormonal BC you may have to try more than one before you find a fit, and some people aren't suited to it. BC has helped with my acne and stress levels, as well as giving me more regular periods (withdrawal bleeds,) and, best of all, helped me not get preggo.
I think the risk with hormonal BC is more in the very long-term and with wrong formulations for people. Anon is right about the importance of not writing it off if there are girls and women who would seriously benefit. I did and so have a lot of others.
>>460498Again I get your point and agree about men needing to take on more responsibility, but if you had any serious doubts, maybe something like a non-hormonal IUD is a better option. I kind of want to stop hormonal BC at some point so I've considered it, I'm just scared of the potential cramps and bleeding.
I'm just hoping for an effective male pill to get approved but I feel like even with similar side-effects, they'll coddle men's side-effects in a way they won't allow us. Have to wonder if they will get implants equivalent to IUDs eventually as well.

like I'm not anti bc or anything, I just think that, at least where I'm from, it is taken too lightly and girls are put on it as soon as they hit like 15 like it's just ibuprofen or buying 1st bra or something and the downsides of it are thought of as freak accidents or something that's just part of womanhood. also yeah, the long term implications are also something girls need to be better informed about.

Lots of young musicians who are technical geniuses, but can't sing, and/or are unable or unwilling to hire a vocalist. Every once in a while, it'd push out someone who gets famous with a similar appeal to the mainstream as Death Grips. Weeaboo shit as a trademark because of the origin, but mostly in the sense of self-parody, deconstruction of otaku/internet culture, or a simple aesthetic choice (as opposed to unabashed, sincere enthusiasm in said culture). Mild crossover with the noise and/or industrial scene, and as of 2019, some of the people who are into what 4channers have termed "doomer music" appreciate it, too.
>What the western Vocaloid scene actually is
Filled with cringy weeaboos, Tumblrites, children, "music" ranging from generic to awful, "Miku says trans rights", Twitter beefs and callout posts.

The scale in the house im staying at keeps reading my weight as 94kg, when I first came here it was 75kg, and now its 94kg. How would it be possible?
Before I left here I weighed 74kg on my own scale which means the original reading was in line with the first one I got, until the scale started creeping up to numbers like 80, 85kg. The strangest part is that I have visibly lost weight, everyone notices, my measurements are smaller, and my clothes are bigger, despite the scale increasing. It doesnt make sense for me to have inaccurate readings despite everyone else getting a good reading of their weight, so WTF is going on?
Im honestly scared, im only 163cm and never been 94kg in my life, but visibly look like I would at 68kg, 94kg on me would be extremely huge but I feel more in shape and look more muscular than ever. But still, how would I even gain that much muscle weight?? Water weight? How?
Idk man, something is clearly up and im wondering if I Secretly have gallstones, a tumor, or some cysts im unaware of.

Like "fuck off dude, you weren't actually there or know the process at all", lol. I kind of get what you mean about sexuality, it's like most creative content online is made by people fueled by lust, not everyone cares about making something for the sake of it but everyone wants to fuck at some point. There was an anon up here somewhere who was lamenting about most RPs being able sex and it frustrates me too, I check adult RP places because I don't want to talk to minors but nearly ALL of the ads involve romance or sex and all of the sex involves kinks.
>>460629Right? Every character from an established property was original at some point which is what I said to one of my friends and he seemed unconvinced, even though that was the other half of my point: not everyone is making a fan character to have adventures in their fave thing, some of us are trying to write an actual narrative. Dull minded people never even think to ask themselves "how can I craft my own?"
On the other hand I'm trying to duck crazy people like the ones that make up that Tearzah girl's fanbase. Circles like that around an artist's OCs are a clusterfuck of plagiarism, witchhunting suspected plagiarism, shipping, nitpicking, blind adoration, it's like a weird cult for paper dolls without even a narrative to follow together.

I started to keep a journal a couple of years ago because one of my favorite artists is really into it and it seemed like a fun thing. It really helped me deal with my depression, it was the emotional release that I needed. I enjoy handwriting out my feelings (I've kept private blogs and private vent twitters, but it all feels like I could constantly scream and not feel any better, the hand cramps I feel from handwriting really help lol), and I really liked to collect washi tapes and stickers to decorate my pages with. It's really nice when my friends go on trips and bring me back stickers or stuff, I feel like I'm putting parts of them into my journal. My newest journal is from the artist who got me into journalling, and it's super nice and has thick grid paper that I can do light washes on without the paper warping, but it's only about 50 pages so I've been trying to sparingly use it.
As a consequence, I've barely written in it because it felt like a waste to write about boring things. Over the years it went from a place to store my feelings, to a sort of… book of fun things I've done for my future self to look back on and read, and I would start thinking "wow it'll be really boring to read this a couple years down the line" when it came to writing entries on days where nothing really special happened. Simone Giertz posted a patreon entry where she translated and posted journal entries, and it really hit me to read all of the vulnerable thoughts she put into hers. Last night, for the first time in a month or two, I decided to just write whatever. I actually had a lot more to write than I thought I did. It feels good to write again. I'll be sad once I finish writing in this journal, but there's a lovely stationary store near me and I look forward to visiting there to pick out my next one.

Still sucks that you have to deal with these freaks on the loose though, even if it is halloween themed place i would never think this is ok thing for me to do, that is not spooky at all, its just uncomfortable., i love halloween and i wish adult halloween parties were about scary skeletons and not kink fests

I’ve been trying to implement minimalism into my life, not impulse buying, selling stuff I don’t use/need, using money for experiences and not things…. but this animal crossing merch you guys. I’d only want the teapot, leaf plate and fossil plate - I’ve looked on eBay and I cannot in the right mind justify buying them at the price they're at, not to mention it’s completely frivolous and against the values I’m trying to live by. That doesn’t stop my brain from going aW I NEED IT every time it crosses my mind though lol..

let's say you're very poor, have been homeless, your family also has nothing, you date a guy who comes from a decent family with money, has a good job, but whenever you express that you're so miserable and suicidal and terrified about money, they never console you, let alone try to help, even in like, the form of a loan, or just offering to help lessen your burden. they also claim to want to marry you. biggest piece of shit ever tier or what?

>>461674To be honest you sound really entitled and bitter, and that's not a good thing. People will be willing to disagree with you just because of that.
But putting that aside, if you're in a serious relationship with someone and they're in a better position by all means they should help. Obviously not if they gamble or have some sort of shopping addiction, but if they are in genuine trouble. My bf was struggling at one point and I would have never thought to let him struggle on his own. I've bought him things he's needed and I would never expect him to pay me back. If you care about someone you don't let them struggle and suffer day to day… How can you say you love them if you do? Part of love is helping someone through the hard times, even if that is financial.

>>461687>To be honest you sound really entitled and bitter, and that's not a good thing. People will be willing to disagree with you just because of that.it's not entitlement. you don't bring up legal entanglement when you're barely half in and essentially lovebomb someone to oblivion with such things when they have no hope and you know they've been suffering endlessly, physically, in terms of safety and security, and financially. it's impossibly cruel and if anons are too stupid to see that and interpret it as "entitlement", they need to re-evaluate the criteria that constitutes what a love and marriage should be based on

I don't know why but I find it so interesting to look at how some scientists shoop their figures. It's just funny how some of them copy and paste shit so blatantly and the reviewers don't even see it and let it pass. Pic related was from an article published by people from Harvard Medical School in Nature (one of the top science journals). Just ridiculous. How many more are out there that never got caught?

>>461698That is something called a western blot which is a method to separate and identify proteins. The scientist who pointed out the shooping said none of those black "bands" (proteins) should look identical, it's like if you took a picture of the sky and you saw 2 clouds that were exactly the same. Again it's just the sheer audacity of some of these people that's hilarious to me. This seems like a huge problem in life science fields with possibly up to 1/5 studies having shooped pics, and funding these studies isn't cheap either.

I feel like I've been lied to my entire life. A foal is a baby horse, which then either becomes a colt or a filly (young male or female horse), then eventually a horse (or I'm guessing, a pony if their size is too small to ~*~technically~*~ be a horse).

>>462820No idea but i was probably lurking there when the site was fairly recent. Is kinda interesting how it mutated over the years, the first few memories i have of it is that it had a reputation for being a place for very unpopular and akward kids hanged around, so a lot of very cringy fan fiction and sperging about Disney and trivial stuff no one cared that much about and it had a lot of Deviantart refugees when DA started slowing down and becoming fetish central, so tumblr the person was like an invisible chubby girl that likes Sanrio and Invader Zim. Then they kinda spined it around to be a site for alternative kids who were "not like other kids" in that "cool to be nerdy" kinda way and stuff, so a lot of hipsters and goth stacys started coming in and i remember a lot of tea from the local music scene. The teenage sperging remained but tumblrinas started adding a political angle to their teenage angst and trivial rants about cartoons to make it cooler and deep and thats more like the image tumblr has today, but i really could not say too surely because i haven't been in there for a few years now.

Also did you think pinkpill was
suppose to be intellectual? Its a place for women to vent their frustrations about men actually its literally the only place on the itnernet ive ever seen for that. Meanwhile there are literally thousands if not millions of incel forums talking about how all women deserve to be raped and sharing child porn, why dont you go there and whine about their nonintellectual gibberish? Exactly, you wouldn't. But women arent allowed to have any negative opinions about men I guess.
