@steep scarab here I drew you a 5 second cake

its very practical

[urban musk]

she kent be handled by anyone

[steep scarab]

@cosmic pier

ty

[stuck copper]

who stole the first slice

[urban musk]

so no one uses kent

[steep scarab]

for cake

even though it's crude and sliced

[cosmic pier]

hey I tried

I suck at drawing and its windows paint

@urban musk u suk

[urban musk]

no u

[cosmic pier]

how dare you go around saying vamp is the worst dd ingame

u gae

[warm bluff]

All DDs are good DDs

[urban musk]

here enjoy some happy sounds and forget about her

[cosmic pier]

imma send her to keel you

[urban musk]

you can't keel or kill a ghost

[cosmic pier]

according to DS I can just take a temporary curse

and kill you

gotta go take a shower first tho

[stuck copper]

monarch is dev 29

I mean Dev 28

and I need 1 more for 29

[cosmic pier]

no u

[urban musk]

duncuck is back @steep scarab

[cosmic pier]

looking at BP's VA made me realize Erina's voice had changed at like s3 or sth

[stuck copper]

3rd prototype 203 or 4th oxytorp

which one

[cosmic pier]

oxy

[clear gate]

Oxygen torp, the core exchange prototype 203 is lesser than the PR one

[stuck copper]

okay

well I don't know it looked like a good gun

3 is fine

[urban musk]

2 core 203 is enough

as is 3 oxy

after all, we have PR guns now

[cosmic pier]

6 oxy for all the subs or bust

[stuck copper]

hmm so I should just sit on the chips

[cosmic pier]

[urban musk]

for me, i'd save for shells ye

[stuck copper]

cuz I have everything else worthwhile from this core season

the thing is, there's better stuff now, so you should go with PR like ender said

[cosmic pier]

shells dont really need saving for when you can get both within a month anyway

neder

gae

[urban musk]

BOLG

[stuck copper]

back then, the prototype was one of the best, and it still is. but there's no need to spend chips on good CA guns these days.

plus, you'll likely want AP for w12+ anyway

[clear gate]

The core data 203 was the best HE gun for heavy cruisers until Roon Sanrui gun came out

[urban musk]

roon gun is AP tho

[clear gate]

but generally, as stated, AP is preferred

[urban musk]

you mean sanrui gun

[clear gate]

Sanrui gun

[stuck copper]

i was focusing HE because burn damage :/

ap feels so weak lol

[urban musk]

honestly

[cosmic pier]

snerk

snek

just get gral

[urban musk]

HE is generally preferred if you don't know what you're doing

if you do know

[stuck copper]

[cosmic pier]

[urban musk]

then change gun as necesary

[stuck copper]

okay

[urban musk]

w11+? mostly CA AP for mob

anything before? CA HE

[stuck copper]

oh oke

I haven't gotten to world 11 yet

[urban musk]

ofc, sanrui, roon, balty all ignore the gun ammo

[clear gate]

AP is great in that it passes through enemies, so you have potential to build up more effective DPS

[stuck copper]

well I'm done world 10 but not 11

what ender said

[urban musk]

piercing
on auto

[clear gate]

The thing is, Ender
The Roon gun is still the best gun for Balty

[stuck copper]

high-level heavies are really tough

[urban musk]

yeah roon is still the best for balty

[clear gate]

So it doesn't even matter lol

[stuck copper]

I haven't leveled my balty yet///

[cosmic pier]

anything before is ez pz with ap ca gun too cuz they weak

[stuck copper]

my china wall can't be this weak!

[cosmic pier]

prinz gun ftw

[urban musk]

more of

locked into HE

there's no reason to swap to AP

[cosmic pier]

no she just increases he dmg

[urban musk]

her 35% buff to HE is enough

to surpass an AP gun against medium

[cosmic pier]

just use norfolk

heard they say she's the worst ca or sth

[urban musk]

norfolk is the vampire of CAs yes

[cosmic pier]

no u

[urban musk]

even eugen has a decent shield

what does she have

[warm bluff]

Vampire is cute

[clear gate]

CAs are lackluster before level 100, Aran

[urban musk]

front facing shields?

lol

[cosmic pier]

ender just too corrupted by the gameplay help boiz

and ywis

[urban musk]

hello

[cosmic pier]

[urban musk]

i was the one that made it that way

[stuck copper]

i love my high-level CAs

[urban musk]

i'm literally the only person from old help that's still active lel

[cosmic pier]

y'all deserve a special slot in hell

for bein

[clear gate]

But what is it about them that feels bad @last kiln

[urban musk]

i have too many goddamn gae bolg gifs

[cosmic pier]

lel

cuz u gae

[warm bluff]

Saint louis doing 1k dmg per bullet in 7-2 feels pretty good

[cosmic pier]

7 2

[warm bluff]

7-2 is the only stage that exists

[stuck copper]

I should probably be focusing on my pr girls some more but the BP grind is so heavy...

[clear gate]

You know what's great? Going to 11-4 and watching the battleship mobs melt from your PR 410mm

[cosmic pier]

izugun

[clear gate]

What, it's a great gun

[cosmic pier]

i didnt say anything tho

[clear gate]

🦊

[cosmic pier]

its the most used thing concerning izu

[stuck copper]

I have 1 but didn't use it

[clear gate]

11-4 is the new 7-2 for me @warm bluff

[cosmic pier]

"izumo? nahhh, the gun? gimmee"

[steep scarab]

@urban musk gib me gift

[cosmic pier]

12-4 is best cv/l levelling spot

@steep scarabill give you a cookie

[clear gate]

Agree, you can run an all CV/L backline

in ch12

[warm bluff]

I always need gold more than ship exp so I'm stuck at 7-2

[cosmic pier]

[stuck copper]

i go full CV/CA in 12-4

it's pretty nice

[cosmic pier]

cal is an oil prince

[clear gate]

ch12 rewards some pretty different fleet comp

[stuck copper]

sure. i don't mind spending oil

[clear gate]

Imagine not spending oil

[stuck copper]

throw in some subs for 90 oil

[urban musk]

here @steep scarab

[cosmic pier]

i havent spent oil for a while now

maybe irl

[stuck copper]

only reason i'm a little tight on oil is the fact that i run double 10-hours

[warm bluff]

I'm doing all the 10hr commissions just to keep oil under cap

[cosmic pier]

[clear gate]

:<

[cosmic pier]

looking at tour screen during auto

that's just recipe for disaster

specially on pvp with the behind enemy backlane torps

[clear gate]

@last kiln try London Kai with her 160% auxiliary gun efficiency :3

I like her stock art but not her Kai art, but that's ok because we can use whatever skin we like

Mogami isn't t0, she's worse than Balti

[urban musk]

she's better lol

[cosmic pier]

u gae
London retro cg better
def not just cuz she wears a maido form

[urban musk]

moga damage potential is far higher than balty

and gets the benefit of nagato/mikasa buffs

[cosmic pier]

mikawho?

[urban musk]

lol

she out DPSes my backline regularly

[cosmic pier]

baltibore got her armor pierce schtik (or however its spelled)

[stuck copper]

could be the torps. if they miss, you get less damage in her report

[cosmic pier]

shitstick

shtick

[urban musk]

balty will still underperform against light regardless

[cosmic pier]

idk

[clear gate]

:<>:<

[urban musk]

mogami is unique among the high tiers because she can still switch guns for the enemy as seen fit

[cosmic pier]

just be a bigbren and dont use her in light infested areas

[urban musk]

sanrui is locked into HE, and won't perform as well on med

[cosmic pier]

[urban musk]

roon needs time to ramp up her damage

[stuck copper]

you can use mogami for anything though, rei

[urban musk]

minnea is mob fleet period

[cosmic pier]

i can use any ca for anything

i dont care as long as i get my s

[urban musk]

and ofc, mogami is cheaper

[cosmic pier]

[stuck copper]

to me, they're all great. i don't compare them.

[clear gate]

I don't even mind getting an A for being slow @cosmic pier so obviously I'm just biased against DPS

[urban musk]

thing about mogami is

if you're not using her with nagato/mikasa

a lot of her potential is wasted

since with them she can hit absurd reload speeds

[steep scarab]

ty

[cosmic pier]

@clear gate i mean i technically always got the s using anything unless if my botes were underlevelled considerably lel

cant bother with all the tier crap when game so ez

[clear gate]

Sometimes I run slow in 12-4, depending on mob comp

[cosmic pier]

idk bout w12

never been there

[clear gate]

I could go faster but, leveling botes

[cosmic pier]

@urban musk mikawho

do you mean misaka

[clear gate]

Mi casa es tu casa

https://azurlane.koumakan.jp/Mikasa

[cosmic pier]

"u gae" Says Misaka as Misaka points at you judgingly

[clear gate]

When she launched, her name was actually erroneously rendered as Misaka

iirc

[cosmic pier]

wao sending an actual link

[urban musk]

where's the meme pic

[cosmic pier]

which one

[urban musk]

the one of her as misaka

[cosmic pier]

never seen

by Mikasa do you maybe mean Mikasa Ackerman

[stuck copper]

i'm looking to change my IJN boss fleet. want to run foxes with nagato, ibuki, mogami kai. i need a third for my vanguard. any suggestions, and why?

[clear gate]

Yukikaze in position 1 to hold the frontline together

[warm bluff]

Nicholas because cute

[stuck copper]

yeah

yukikaze is a strong canidate

i'm just looking something i may have missed

i don't have every ship memorized

[clear gate]

Not sure how I feel about running three CAs

[cosmic pier]

chokai kai when

[warm bluff]

Mutsuki for the

[stuck copper]

CAs are fine. you just need the gear.

[cosmic pier]

mhh with a nagato foxes backlane the front doesnt matter much anyway long as they dont die

everything just melts

[stuck copper]

well, i run torp memes, but it's squishy

and it kinda sucks, so i'm looking for something else

[ornate mantle]

@stuck copper: Uh, Sendai

For slow.

[cosmic pier]

wat

[clear gate]

Sendai won't buff the CAs though

[cosmic pier]

since when does sendai slow

[clear gate]

Also she doesn't slow

[stuck copper]

sendai is flare girl, right?

[clear gate]

Sendai is flares

[cosmic pier]

ja

[ornate mantle]

Flare slows doesn’t it.

[cosmic pier]

no

lowers Eva

[stuck copper]

it reduces eva

[ornate mantle]

Oh even better wtf

[cosmic pier]

you dummkopf

[ornate mantle]

Ayayayayayayayayaya

[clear gate]

Big drawback is that Sendai's torp buff won't apply

[ornate mantle]

Yeah.

[clear gate]

because it only applies to DD and CL

[ornate mantle]

I guess just YKK.

[cosmic pier]

ayayayayayaya🚮

[ornate mantle]

She’s the strongest pick.

[warm bluff]

Torpmeme takes too much effort

[ornate mantle]

I need 10 more Rainbow torps

[cosmic pier]

see you next year

[ornate mantle]

[cosmic pier]

to facetorp you must manuel

and manuel is effort

[stuck copper]

sendai, choukai. i'll try them out once i get everyone ready.

[cosmic pier]

[warm bluff]

Exactly!

[stuck copper]

i don't really have anything to do. might as well just max a bunch of ships.

[ornate mantle]

Autolane is best lane.

[stuck copper]

getting ibuki to dev30 is the worst

[cosmic pier]

players of al are allergic to manuel play

[ornate mantle]

I still need 1 purin before I can get the ashen border

My Buki is Dev 26 atm

[cosmic pier]

just get the weekly

[ornate mantle]

I could have had her to 30 sooner

[cosmic pier]

by buki is dev0

[ornate mantle]

But saving coins and shit

[stuck copper]

mine isn't even 100. her torps are already pretty strong.

[warm bluff]

I got monarch to dev30 working on saint louis now

[ornate mantle]

Coins are such a hard resource to conserve

[cosmic pier]

boring

not wheling enough/10

[ornate mantle]

I haven’t even done half of PR 1 technically.

I’m like halfway done one two PR ships though?

Only haven’t done anything for Neptune.

Roon, Zumo, And St. Louis have up to 1M EXP Done iirc

[stuck copper]

completed PR

now just need to dev 30 them all

leaving my universal bps for PR2

i just started 2m on izumo. she's my last. i care so little about her.

[warm bluff]

Doesn't pr2 use a different universal bp?

[stuck copper]

no

[cosmic pier]

[urban musk]

it does lol

well rather

as the ss said

you just can't use PR 1 BP for PR2

[warm bluff]

Ya that makes more sense

[cosmic pier]

yama is just a dum dum

[urban musk]

the useless one

[cosmic pier]

es***

[warm bluff]

It's not useless, it's a good blue book sink

[cosmic pier]

For my T3 counts

[stuck copper]

well..
I can auto ch11

[cosmic pier]

@urban musk send 🅱ae🅱er

3 summons not enough

idk

lemme check

[tough burrow]

A shitton

[cosmic pier]

actually just got in a node so gimme a bit unless one of these other fgo scrubs says

[clear gate]

How much does 30 quartz get you

[tough burrow]

?

[clear gate]

In terms of stuff besides summons

[tough burrow]

nothing

SQ only used for summons

well, you can also eat it

[clear gate]

Hm

[tough burrow]

and recover 100% AP

[cosmic pier]

imma eat you

[tough burrow]

or to revive in stage if you dead with 100% HP

but as a currency it doesn't do anything but summons

also if you reviving with SQ you're an ultra-scrub

[warm bluff]

Sounds just as bad as PAD

[ornate mantle]

FGO has some of the shittiest IRL currency to IG currency conversion among the mobile.

[tough burrow]

cos you get free revive every 3 days

[stuck copper]

google says one quartz is 99 cents

[cosmic pier]

support char be like

[tough burrow]

around that ye

[ornate mantle]

Probably. Idr

[stiff musk]

Complaining about 3-quartz rolls

[cosmic pier]

nice gif

[tough burrow]

[stuck copper]

now this is just mean.,,,

[cosmic pier]

just be that guy who spent 70k on fgo

[warm bluff]

Cute I-26 skin!

[stiff musk]

I probably would have spent that amount if I played NA like I did JP

[cosmic pier]

rando u already whel

no u

that level difference

lol

imagine if you could use a support bote in al

[warm bluff]

pls no

[cosmic pier]

"bonus (free)" best marketting

like al 600+120 or whatever it was

get me outta iran and I'll give you bonuses

[tough burrow]

ah, you see, here's the trick

there's a guaranteed SSR gacha sometimes, that only accepts paid SQ

bonus SQ doesn't count as paid

ye it is

[cosmic pier]

hey atleast it's guaranteed

[tough burrow]

people bash FGO gacha, but do it for different reasons

[cosmic pier]

[tough burrow]

it's not about rates, those are actually fine

but about monetization and shitty tricks

[warm epoch]

The rates are horrible for me

I spent 90 quartz for a 4 star

[tough burrow]

it's on par with most gacha

[warm epoch]

what gacha are you playing?

[tough burrow]

it's just most gacha also find ways to sugarcoat it

with bonuses and free rolls

but not FGO, no sir

[warm epoch]

At least put a pity roll ;(

[cosmic pier]

i mean, free guaranteed is better than paid one, but paid guaranteed still better than paying and still getting screwes by gacha

[tough burrow]

here you pay and should be thankful to us for allowing you to give us money

[cosmic pier]

then again i don whel so idk

[tough burrow]

well, at least they recently added x11

so every 10th roll is actually x2

obviously it doesn't persist between banners, god forbid

but hey, it's something

[cosmic pier]

rip
last 3 quarts asking for a waver
and it gives me some zelrekt sword ce

where my luccsacc

[tough burrow]

what gacha are you playing?
if you exclude collection games like AL or GFL - most gachas have these rates tho
even if they have higher general SSR rate - individual rate for a specific char would be horrendous

they just bloat the fuck out of pool

[stuck copper]

that's true

[tough burrow]

so sure, you roll SSRs

but just some garbage you don't want

[stuck copper]

i took a look at another eden. nice game, brutal gacha.

[cosmic pier]

I spent 90 quartz for a 4 star
yeah and i popped like 300 cubes for sheffield

[stuck copper]

i got, like, 6 or so recolors that are all considered different characters.

blue robot, red robot, green robot

[cosmic pier]

sounds like fate
roll for character skins

[tough burrow]

I mean, it's all RNG at the end of a day
My friend popped 2 x10
Got 2 SRs I wanted

I popped 6 x10
Not a single gold servant, event or not

[stuck copper]

they tell you the rates and they're all super low

[tough burrow]

I am salty, but that's how RNG rolls

[stuck copper]

like, 0.8% is rate up already

[cosmic pier]

rng is rng
always 50%
just the "not getting what you want" 50% is a bit heavier

[stuck copper]

it also has this paid premium currency nonsense

[tough burrow]

[stuck copper]

that free players can't roll on

i like monthly cards. as long as they're affordable and offer good stuff, i will support those.

[stiff musk]

That's why I love Azur Lane's monetization model

[stuck copper]

you really have to appeal to more than just whales. people aren't that cheap. some of them want to give you money, just not outrageous amounts.

[cosmic pier]

i dont care bout le monetization model
too poor for that

[stiff musk]

The amount of money I've spent in the past year playing Azur Lane has been less than the amount I used to spend per month in FGO or Valkyrie Connect

Sure, the story may be lame and the PvP sucks, but Azur Lane's got tons more waifus

[cosmic pier]

al best lore ever

[clear gate]

I don't mind the bad PvP, but what I do wanna see in AL is

Real-time co-op

[cosmic pier]

fate got some pretty nice waifus and husbandos n stuff in itself

[stuck copper]

two of my favorite things are the amount of cubes and oil we get

you can play for a long time if you want to

and you get a good amount of free rolls every banner

[warm bluff]

I wish there was 2hu-like combat

[cosmic pier]

just hit the ex

[warm bluff]

EX stage isn't very 2hu-like though

[clear gate]

AL is pretty different from 2hu in that you're expected to tank hits moreso than dodge them

[clear gate]

Crescent gets a lot better if you treat her well

[warm bluff]

That line is cute though

[clear gate]

She goes from "there's no way someone like you could have friends" to "please get mad at me if I say things like that again"

a girl asking to be angry at is a lot better

Also after retrofit, where she's clearly a lot more comfortable with you

you feed her all that gold
she better be

this is interesting

[dense wing]

regarding the conversation about “guys gifting girls makes the guy think hes getting somewhere” thing

that comment relates to it

interesting

I wish I had stable notes

[clear gate]

lol

[cosmic pier]

i mean

this is a game where girls come to love you just cuz you send em to fite

[dense wing]

[cosmic pier]

it aint reality

[dense wing]

or you give them attention as secretary

regardless the thought still exists, thats what im interested in

[cosmic pier]

you let em keep reminding you got 100+ license mails you aint opening till next french event*

[dense wing]

I never have that problem

they always just say

OO A BREAK FROM BATTLE

and im like

oh yeah

I forgot I have a map open right now

back to battle

[cosmic pier]

i imagine your grills get a lot of break from battles

also the give em gifts to feel like i have a chance isnt an approach I'd take irl, my approach would be not bothering with those stuff and just sit home and play/read/watch something

that was just relative speakin bout the game

[dense wing]

I dont ever tru

try

so for me the best way to go about it is to just talk

[stuck copper]

giving them stuff only gets them ahead

[dense wing]

the hard part is saying you’re not interested lol

[stuck copper]

save it for when they're actually worth it

[cosmic pier]

no u

I'll save it for myself

[dense wing]

plus knowing girls

[cosmic pier]

[dense wing]

they can always take advantage of you

if you always gift them

[cosmic pier]

meh
kinda sorta have had my share of a somewhat relationsheep, not irl but it was enough for the time being

relationsheep

[cosmic pier]

i was the sheep

hey atleast I'll be useful for once

it was like about a year of me bein an inexperienced idiot on the internet

because I no longer get asked out

I have shut down everyone who asked me

None of them seemed very interesting

glad you at least stuck up for yourself though revy

fun times

[stuck copper]

never say yes out of desperation

[dense wing]

my current bf, he asked me out when I was like 12

and I said no because I didnt really know him personally

[stuck copper]

if she's a bitch, you gotta have the balls to tell her to fuck off

[dense wing]

fastforward 3 years I know him personally and all that, so I felt comfortable getting into a relationship

[cosmic pier]

roricon bf

There was one time where this girl who was interested in me was like "so what are you doing for Easter" and I said "Oh, I don't really celebrate Easter." The look on her face was amazing and we never talked again

[dense wing]

[stuck copper]

i told my gf i had a no bullshit policy, and now we're happy together, because so does she

[dense wing]

then once she gets older she realizes how dumb that is
I hope

[cosmic pier]

i told my depression i love it

it never responded

[dense wing]

we have a no bs policy too

[cosmic pier]

still waiting for an answer

[dense wing]

@cosmic pier make it respond

[cosmic pier]

@depression pls respond bb

[stuck copper]

i'm just not very good with all those dumb games people like to play

if you don't give it to me straight, i will blame you for sucking at communication

[cosmic pier]

i like playing dumb games

like doom

i just play as an angeri man being dumb smashing demon heads

[stuck copper]

and i don't leave any room for discussion

[warm bluff]

I've never been in a relationship

Too scared of talking

you just need to be a decent human being, probably

[clear gate]

Same @stuck copper, I'm also literally autistic and I'm horrible at picking up on those things

[dense wing]

my bf doesnt understand why I get embarrassed by everything

hes so straight forward and assertive with everything

[cosmic pier]

im not exactly scared of talking, i simply dont have anything to talk about with people

[dense wing]

and im like idk!

[cosmic pier]

does he t pose you to assert dominance

[stuck copper]

yeah, i tell me gf "fuck other people. i don't care what they think", but i have to be aware that i might embarrass her

[warm bluff]

[stuck copper]

and since i care about her, i have to care

[dense wing]

he doesnt

[stuck copper]

somewhat

[cosmic pier]

i see

[dense wing]

mm yeah my bf kinda does something similar

though we agree pda is dumb

[stuck copper]

my logic is fairly simple. if they judge me by my looks and stuff, i don't want to be associated with them anyway

so why would i care? they do nothing for me

[dense wing]

inb4 you two are friends because you bth have fairly similar ways of life

[cosmic pier]

is that why u get pissed when i say you look gae

[stuck copper]

you piss me off because i am tired of "gae"

[dense wing]

“if you dont like me you dont like me I dont give a fuck about making you like me”

[stuck copper]

it's literally the same joke over and over again

[dense wing]

[stuck copper]

[dense wing]

it reminds me of someone in artist lounge

i am just very forgiving, because rei is young

Well this is an interesting topic to stumble upon today

shes 14 but she calls everyone gae

rei is 14 now

[stuck copper]

Lol

[dense wing]

:yeptune:

dating culture

[clear gate]

It's just so gross

[dense wing]

im not sure if I would call mine usual dating “culture”

given im very conservative when it comes to relationships

[clear gate]

Can we talk about cats now

[dense wing]

I like cats

[stuck copper]

Not gonna lie though

you just grab a bite with them and if they're cool, you watch a movie or something

[clear gate]

I haven't got a single good SR Meowfficer roll

[stuck copper]

I remember when I turned someone down

Unironically

Not on purpose

[cosmic pier]

with cats?

[dense wing]

cal is right

[cosmic pier]

[dense wing]

not on purpose?!

[stuck copper]

By making a joke

a lot of people are kinda normal and don't want any of that nonsense

Yes

[dense wing]

oh lawd

[stuck copper]

I was a smol child back then

[dense wing]

[stuck copper]

But basically

They asked me if I was dating anyone at the time

"No one asks that unironically"

And me like the clever child I was

[dense wing]

[cosmic pier]

i know some pleb who apparently once turned down a hot grill and is still regretting it

[stuck copper]

"I'm dating a rubber ducky"

[dense wing]

[cosmic pier]

hot

[stuck copper]

This was a 100% joke on my part

Like I know now I actually fucked up

[dense wing]

[stuck copper]

But back then I was just a smol child

i was invited on a date, but i didn't catch on and thought we were just hanging out

Me wasn't versed with women as much

The thing is Cal

A lot of women have one issue

"They don't tell you what the intent of anything they do is"

[dense wing]

a lot are passive agressive

or passive in general

[stuck copper]

So you're there like

"Oh this just be a normal hang out"

that's what i described as bullshit

While in their minds

"We're dating right now"

[clear gate]

Btw that's why some romance manga is more accurate than you might think

[stuck copper]

i think it happened about three times

And I think what makes it worse now

You get some girls who will like

[dense wing]

romance manga accurate

say that to the man that made a romance vn without ever experiencing romance and it turned out bad bc of that

[stuck copper]

"what? you want lewd times? uh... okay, i guess..."

[clear gate]

Hey hey, I didn't say it was accurate as a whole @dense wing

[dense wing]

[stuck copper]

Strip down in front of you completely and be like " fuck me now" while you get others girls who will strip down naked and it means nothing

best response from a woman was

So you're there like

[dense wing]

I dont understand that

[stuck copper]

"What does this mean"

"i have alcohol if you need some"

Because 1 girl = all green

Another girl = don't even bother

[dense wing]

my bf is like
“what why is being naked embarrassing”

and im just like
HELLO?

[stuck copper]

So when you get people like "Guys are dumb and don't get signs"

[ornate mantle]

Yeah why is it embarassing?

[stuck copper]

It's not that we guys are dumb and don't get signs

that's why communication is so important

[dense wing]

embarrassing because of my own morals

[stuck copper]

It's that we try to rationalize them

[ornate mantle]

Is being naked immoral?

[warm bluff]

What are morals

[dense wing]

but we share the same morals
he just doesnt care so much
that it doesnt bother him

[stuck copper]

Like a girl say brushes her bobs on your arm for example

Most guys would just go

"That was an accident totally"

[dense wing]

ive had that accidentally happen

so many times

[stuck copper]

Even if it was intended

Because we try to rationalize it away

[ornate mantle]

Wait what.

[stuck copper]

i always thought it's just boobs being in the way, because boobs

[dense wing]

I really suggest if that happens you take it as an accident

[cosmic pier]

send bobs

[stuck copper]

Yeah that's the thing Kawa

Especially if you live west

[dense wing]

lives in west coast USA

[ornate mantle]

Oh yeah, I don’t recommend taking it as an intentional gesture... especially I. This climate where you can get sued and shamed for sneezing in the wrong direction.

[stuck copper]

Where 1 sexual assault charge = life ruined

[cosmic pier]

kawa you're just an anomaly

[ornate mantle]

^

[stuck copper]

So guys be like

[dense wing]

[stuck copper]

"I'm just going to assume they don't care"

[dense wing]

yes I am

[stuck copper]

Since it's the safest way to be now

[dense wing]

as I said rei, im very conservative about relationships

[cosmic pier]

@ornate mantle imma sue you

[ornate mantle]

Well first you need to be a US citizen.

Then we can talk.

[stuck copper]

Don't forget british

[ornate mantle]

[dense wing]

while I find being in the nude in undergarments insanely private
I was forced to dress down in middle school

[cosmic pier]

I'll marry you and become a us citizen

[stuck copper]

I mean you know Ran

[cosmic pier]

then I'll sue you

[stuck copper]

It's actually 100% legal here

For a woman to force sex on a man

But it's illegal in reverse

[ornate mantle]

Wait how the shit is that logical.

[stuck copper]

I shit you not

[dense wing]

^

bruh

[ornate mantle]

Double standards everywhere.

[stuck copper]

As far as the law goes here

[cosmic pier]

is that how shota plot starts

[dense wing]

how do you even let that pass as legal

[ornate mantle]

This is why I always say true peace on earth will happen when 7 billion people are exterminated.

[cosmic pier]

is that the total human count

[stuck copper]

"According to the law, forced sex occurs when a man"

Key word

then the animals will carry on the torch

"When a man"

[ornate mantle]

LOL

[warm bluff]

Nature is pretty violent

[dense wing]

what about a woman

[stuck copper]

Those don't count

[cosmic pier]

what are womans

[ornate mantle]

No way is that realistic. You can’t interpret the word “man” like that.

[cosmic pier]

[dense wing]

I get man is sometimes used to describe humanity as whole but here I hope thats the case

[ornate mantle]

Well it technically should.

[stuck copper]

The sad part is

it's poorly worded regardless

I wish I was joking

I mean on the news the other day

[cosmic pier]

its like a game's tos
vague

[stuck copper]

That was a serious question

[ornate mantle]

LOLOL

[stuck copper]

By the bbc

Like

Wut

[ornate mantle]

Oh it’s BBC

[stuck copper]

How is that even questionable though period

[dense wing]

bbc lul

theyre a bad news source

ive heard

[ornate mantle]

That’s about as reliable as CNN

[stuck copper]

Sad part though is

It is legal

[ornate mantle]

Or Vox.

[stuck copper]

i mean, the quality of that question is kind of indicative of that

[dense wing]

[ornate mantle]

Man, what a day.

I learned something new today.

[stuck copper]

So yeah when people say

"Guys don't get signs"

No we totally get them

We just completely dismiss them

i don't get them

[ornate mantle]

We choose to interpret them in a way that doesn’t fuck us up for life

[stuck copper]

This basically

Cause say you're a doktor

[dense wing]

[stuck copper]

If you get a sexual harassment claim

Good luck working as a dok ever again

Even if it's proven false

[dense wing]

good luck working ever again

[stuck copper]

Yup

It's a sad state

[cosmic pier]

cant get signs at all to begin with if you dont hang around with whamen

[dense wing]

where are you in razzles

[stuck copper]

UK

[dense wing]

[stuck copper]

Yup

I too live where feminism is a problem

[dense wing]

I expected better from the UK

[stuck copper]

Or rather

[cosmic pier]

lul

[stuck copper]

This shitty version of feminism

[dense wing]

fat f

[ornate mantle]

3rd way feminism.

[stuck copper]

It's so bad really

[cosmic pier]

expecting anything from hoomans

[stuck copper]

I heard Ran

It's SO bad

that's why you go with egalitarianism

To the point where in the work place

[ornate mantle]

Yeah.

[stuck copper]

Even guys are like

[cosmic pier]

egalinani

[stuck copper]

"I won't be in the same room as a woman without a 3rd party"

To avoid claims

[dense wing]

yikes

[ornate mantle]

That’s the safest thing

[stuck copper]

That's how you know when things are bad

basically, everyone's different, but they all get the same chances, yadda-yadda

[dense wing]

it sounds like you have a people problem too

[clear gate]

Feminism itself is a great idea, the problem is that in many places, it's mutated into a ridiculous parody of itself

[cosmic pier]

its ok we got that covered in islam

[stuck copper]

Yeah basically Revy

It went from equal rights

To "WE MUST RULE"

Which is not the same thing

i will always argue feminism is obsolete

[ornate mantle]

Well I’d rather not spin this is a religious direction because that’s a can of shit I don’t wanna open, lmao.

[dense wing]

thats something new within itself

[cosmic pier]

" a man and a woman being in the dame, closed room alone is haraam " and call it a day

[stuck copper]

when you have movements that cover equality for everyone

[dense wing]

dame

[stuck copper]

Pretty much Cal yeah

you don't need to focus on just women

I mean who saw the japanese kyoto deal

And how US media

"More women died"

[ornate mantle]

I didn’t.

[stuck copper]

Like wut

[ornate mantle]

LOL

[stuck copper]

They instantly made it about women

[ornate mantle]

Holy fuck dm me that articles

[stuck copper]

Despite fact people died

[cosmic pier]

azu: sudden interest peak

[stuck copper]

lots of tokenism going on

[ornate mantle]

I mean Modern feminism is such a can of bullshit that it makes me laugh.

[stuck copper]

using groups of people to appeal to certain demographics

Yeah it's pretty sad

"Oh people died but let's make this about X demographic"

[ornate mantle]

“In order to combat racism and inequality we’re going to give preferential treatment to certain demographics.” Is the basic logic of most dumbfucks today.

[stuck copper]

they don't realize they're discriminating people

I mean I heard one person say

And I quote

"You can't be racist against white people because it's only against the minority"

congratulations. that person doesn't understand anything at all.

[clear gate]

That's not how it works tho

[stuck copper]

maybe people should actually look up the definitions of the words they use, then try to understand how things work.

Yeah it would save a lot of issues

[cosmic pier]

just make the world burn

[ornate mantle]

I’m Hispanic and someone tried using the white privilege card on me.

[cosmic pier]

all issues solved

[stuck copper]

yeah, i'm white too, but not in eurpoe

we discriminate people by other means

[ornate mantle]

Fuck yeah.

Like IQ?

[stuck copper]

no

[cosmic pier]

discriminate whels

[stuck copper]

like slav people

[cosmic pier]

[ornate mantle]

LUL

[stuck copper]

slav people are cool and all, but some people have issues with them

[ornate mantle]

The only phrase that comes to mind is “What an age.”

[stuck copper]

and they're white

i am part of a group as well

people see me, they know immediately

[dense wing]

im hispanic and native american and people think im asian so regardless people will see me as a minority

[stuck copper]

i'm half-half

whether i am part of one side or the other depends on people's moods

[dense wing]

people say my eyes are what make me seem half asian
but I dont have any asian in my blood only the native american in me does that

[stuck copper]

I'm a white boi but

I'd say I'm not pure white but darker

[ornate mantle]

I’m white skinned but Hispanic.

[dense wing]

im white skinned as well

[ornate mantle]

So I get to pull the Ol bait and switch on feminists.

[dense wing]

but im more on the brown/yellow skin tone than white/pink

[cosmic pier]

i never had white or whatever discrimination problems but I'm a pro discrimination target from back in school and high school just for being from another city

[stuck copper]

Personally I just got hated for existing

[cosmic pier]

sounds like me

[ornate mantle]

I’ve never been hated.

I’m pretty fucking great.

[cosmic pier]

no u

[ornate mantle]

[dense wing]

u can see here on my photo of my new great shirt that I am brownish/pale
but for a hispanic, im considered white

[stuck copper]

well, i got my own family. i consider that a success.

[dense wing]

success!

[stuck copper]

Yeah you are pretty light coloured

[ornate mantle]

But do you have Crosswave yet?

I don’t think so.

[stuck copper]

Got your own family?

[ornate mantle]

[stuck copper]

so if some loser asshole talks shit about me, i'm like "i'm gonna leave and have sex with someone who loves me, for free. bye."

[cosmic pier]

i always was hated for being from another city in school n shite
someone almost broke my hand outta nowhere

i got the blame for it from the school higherups

[stuck copper]

Ah

[clear gate]

Shigure retrofit when

[ornate mantle]

Oh Yuudachi retrofit when

[dense wing]

I wasnt light colored enough for my uni cosplay

[stuck copper]

do minnie cosplay

[dense wing]

the leggings it came with

[stuck copper]

That's interesting Cal

[dense wing]

it had REALLY pale skin color

[ornate mantle]

I would do a Massachusetts cosplay if I were a cute girl.

[cosmic pier]

basically my school days are a good deal of why im the piece of shite y'all know and love

[dense wing]

so when I put the leggings on, it just looked super odd

[cosmic pier]

[dense wing]

ive thought about doing cosplay of one of the native american botes

[cosmic pier]

@ornate mantle just become a girl in your next life

[stuck copper]

not sure what's better

[clear gate]

My skin is on the dark side for an Asian

[ornate mantle]

I need to go find truck-kun

[dense wing]

but I have a prominent hispanic heritage, not native

[cosmic pier]

I'll ride a truck through you

[stuck copper]

being born as a thirsty guy, or being born as a girl having to deal with thirsty guys

[ornate mantle]

Please do.

[dense wing]

someone told me to cos san juan

[stuck copper]

both kinda suck

Hang on right there Cal

[ornate mantle]

Well in this day and age the girl has the advantage.

[stuck copper]

You talk like women aren't thirsty

oh, they are

Women can be just as thirsty if not more

[ornate mantle]

And that’s true Raz, lol

[stuck copper]

The only reason you don't hear about it

Is because if a woman asks

It happens

[clear gate]

Can we see Kawa as San Juan now? 🦊

[dense wing]

but not all women force it on eveeyone they meet

[cosmic pier]

just look at taihoe

[ornate mantle]

Not all men do too

[cosmic pier]

[stuck copper]

when was the last time a woman sent you an unsolicited nude?

[ornate mantle]

[dense wing]

provide the wig and outfit

today kinda

[clear gate]

Dick pics are gross, I never understood why some men think they're a good idea

[stuck copper]

Actually Cal

[dense wing]

and old woman on twitter posted a photo of her breasts as a part of a “movement hashtag”

[cosmic pier]

does getting unsolicited nudes from a trans woman count

[stuck copper]

ain't gonna touch that topic

[dense wing]

but ive received so many d pics its just a joke

[stuck copper]

8 days ago

too dicey

dang

[ornate mantle]

A friend of mine showed me a twitter profile of a women sendings nudes to the world.

[cosmic pier]

i actually had that

[ornate mantle]

Does that count.

[stuck copper]

razzles with the sex appeal

[dense wing]

I either block and make fun of them or make fun of them and then block them

[stuck copper]

Well it's someone I know but

[ornate mantle]

@stuck copper : my man.

[stuck copper]

I didn't expect to get it sent

[ornate mantle]

[cosmic pier]

imma send you unsolicited duck pics

[dense wing]

@ornate mantle yes it counts

[clear gate]

@dense wing there was one exchange I saw a screencap of where the woman did a joke of "I'mma report this to the authorities as child porn"
