For a fat man, my appetite is so small now. I used to be able to eat like a Filet-O-Fish, a Big Mac, and like 10 nuggets. Now, I eat one Filet-O-Fish and I'm already full. It's the unintentional dieting for me lol
Inorganic chemistry
Funny story about that: I started thinking about doing something other than chemistry for a living when I started this subject in my second year of uni
Now I translate vidjagames
I get no job security and the money is hardly any better considering I pay income tax out of pocket and pay for my own vacations but at least I have the will to live now because I don't hate what I do.
anybody else got hogwarts legacy running smoothly? my friends told me its like other triple a releases basically good on consoles are and dogwater on pc
look of disapproval
i tried to run Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone on Win10, and turned out i can't alt-tab away from it
windowed mode also doesn't exist
actually i remembered it back in 2002, but forgot
Yo i just realized, you cannot pronounce “eye” “laws” “dug” and “aim” right after each other. I’ve been trying for the past 5 minutes it’s impossible
Goddamn it

Ya'll i need red advice
so in game she breaks off the heels of her shoes when she rips up her dress
but i am so short it might be better to keep them on just for the sake of being a little bit taller
if you don't mind me asking, how short are we talking and how tall are the heels you're thinking about?
im like 5'3 and not super tall
I mean my general answer to any question about heels is, "Why would you do that to your feet" but in this case I'll swing to, "If you think they'd help you do you"
we should just make you taller by making you Cyber-Red and giving you digitigrade "mecha" stilt legs
yes
I've been 5'11" for years, but I'm fine with that.
I'm 175 I wish I was like 160 though
Crazy that we live in 3d, see in 2d, and count in 1d
and then you start thinking about what exists between the dimensions, what fits into a fractional dimension?
LMAO
@chilly briar hey Mr. Moderator, theres a promo in the general chat
cheers
cheers :)
Is 0D just if something exists or not
Because then we also think in 0D
Because our brains are binary code computers
but we can think of our thoughts so maybe they are 1d
No not really they're in essence still 0D
so we live in 3d, see in 2d, count in 1d, think in 0d
Wait wdym
How would thoughts about thoughts increase dimensions of thoughts
That's just
Th
thoughts squared
Like we can have a 3d model of a 3d model but it's not 4d
unless you want to say that we can "count" infinitesimally small numbers, I propose that counting numbers are actually less than 1 dimension
like if we think of thoughts does that make them real
our thoughts are actually 3D because they're self-reinforcing patterns in a 3D computational matrix
I'm only talking about real numbers tbh
Yeah that doesn't make them higher dimensional
And infinitely small numbers are real I think...
I don't remember
can we say we "count" imaginary numbers

Understandable
No our thoughts are 10D eldritch entities but human brains are like, antennas receiving it in our limited capacity so we are getting glimpses of them 
Incredible how matt parker always has absolutely literally the same voice
oh man
normal numbers contain data that that calculates themselves
mind blown
Matt didnt' talk about surreal numbers or any of their similar ilk so here's a video that explains some of that https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZYj4NkeGPdM&t=2s
A playful venture into the vast and mysterious forests of combinatorial game theory.
This one simple game will change the way you look at numbers forever! Hackenbush is easy to pick up, but exploring its strategy leads us down a fantastical mathematical rabbit hole, through which can be found the roots of our familiar number system, intricately...
this is literally one of my favorite videos on youtube
oh crap, the dude that made that video died in 2021, I may actually be crying about this
Watching videos on math after chemistry lessons is like a gasp of fresh air
that sounds like torture
also i am buzzing right now how are yall
Hey! How can I become buzzing like you?
Go to the mall with your friend
|| but but the mall is a symptom of rampant cosumerism ||
Ahh okay!
no thats the fun part
you get to look at valentines chocolates and go “aww cute ill get it for my boyf- 40 DOLLARS???”

okay but there was a barbie mirror to promote the barbie movie
and it said join the band
i rest my case??
the barbie movie is the event
im actually so unironically excited for it
Isn't that bias? 
it’s correct bias
but actually i had so much fun it was great
All i bought was a book and a smoothie kinda drink
Me: soooo the salmon you submerged in water, are you not afraid it would jump?
Cook: wat?
Me: it could still be alive. Now that it's in water, it could get back to life?
Cook: it's dead
Me: squint is it tho? it could be hibernating
Cook: there's blood on it's stomach
Me: Cool VFX, I know
Cook: The gills are gone
Me: it's acting, oooohhh it's a very good actor
Cook: I was hired by an idiot
Lmao
The salmon is 3.5 kg, and fit the sink neatly
In the past, we got a 4.5 kg one but I didn't personally receive it
I can't fathom how big that would be 
Ooh give recipe
Chemistry is torture
Math is a gift from God 🙏
Omg. Wtf..........
My favorite instant ramen went from 70 cents to 4.45$ a pack in the span of a year
I can’t even afford my instant ramen anymore
The possibility that Tony hawk is just outside, and you will never know because you cannot recognize him is low, but never zero
Brazil nut and pine nut are criminally underrated
If a person walked around outside my window forever it would take me a couple years to notice them anyway
donated $25US to charities for syria and turkey
glad to hear that! was wondering how you were keeping
i'm so glad! well if you ever need to talk to someone, there'll always be someone somewhere in the chat
meanwhile, i think i will need to reschedule my trip to turkey
i completely forgot i was intending to go this year
It's over here. The city is now a village
i have to read 80 pages of a book today for a school assignment…
i already have 2 hours of homework on top of that
and a test tomorrow
Homework should be banned
100% agreed.
if you snap your fingers loudly and rearrange your hand into finger gun quickly it's like you're shooting
tell me why I just tried this wholeheartedly as if I had never made finger guns before haha.

damn that's a cool emoji
i seriously gotta work on mel the cosplayer in fan works reminded me lmao
going camping this weekened though
Have fun
Tom
In the capitalist society all homework does is instill in a person since a young age that they are expected to do unpaid labor in their free time for the benefit of the institution that already eats up most of their day
I agree with you to an extent but I also sympathize heavily with teachers that are only given so much time to teach an ever increasing amount of knowledge to kids with ever dwindling resources. Homework as a tool of knowledge reinforcement is terribly useful.
Can't argue with that. Homework is useful, but at the same time it's kinda disgusting how it's leveraged later in life.
All the best teachers I've ever had who taught the class much ever effectively with me at least and it seemed other students as well learning the subjects in a much more deep and closer way homework was basically nonexistent
The deadliest earthquake ever happened not in China was in Turkey in 526
4th deadliest ever, top 3 ones were in China
British people talking about London be like "it's sooo cloudy here it's always so grim and dark and cloudy" Well my city has twice less sunny days per year than London take that
Although it was Byzantine back then but for earthquakes only location matters
I don't doubt it, but let me ask you a question: if we were to take a statistically significant sample of students earnestly trying to learn a subject and teachers earnestly trying to teach it. Given the same amount of classroom time, which group of students do you think would internalize the subject more: students given homework, or students not given homework
Students not given homework because even like half an hour of homework is still three hours of homework daily and with three hours of homework daily they quickly will stop being eager to learn and will have less energy in class and they will have literally no time to either rest and do fun things for themselves and unload their brain or they will do these things but undersleep immensely
see, you're arguing not against homework but against load. Which is a valid point to make but isn't anything to do with what I'm talking about. By itself, homework is an extremely useful tool because repetition plays a huge part in learning. Self-driven study is a helpful tool in learning. Peer co-teaching is an extremely useful tool in learning. The concept of homework is not inherently bad.
Well I can't even begin to imagine a quality homework without load because that basically sounds impossible and I've never seen something like it to exist
How is homework without load possible
Imagine if all your teachers coordinated to limit your total homework time
Failing that adult education where you're taking literally one clasd
Well aside from teachers coordinating being something that's about as hard to achieve as abolishing or fixing capitalism which would be required for them coordinating because most of them are underqualified and absolutely hate their jobs and only teach because they don't have any opportunities that pay more and often start enjoying the power and especially the people who would start coordinating the teachers like principles directors or whoever they are usually just not people who would think of doing something good if there's little homework time then doesn't homework lose it's main quality which is supposedly repetition
i don’t have homework at my (online) school but i also don’t have traditional classes so
i like the way my school does it much better though
How are classes at your school
Like I mean untraditional in what way
uhh basically i have a list of classes i need to do in a semester/year and i can just work through them at my own pace, usually i have 2-3 open
in the classes theres basically just a list of text lessons and assignments and if i need help/are confused by something i can reach out to my teachers over email or teams
Cool
i think i understand the material relatively well so
School would be easier if instead of russian there was quantum mechanics
I don't recommend taking online courses btw. Especially for more complex stuff like physics or calculus.
And instead of chemistry quantum mechanics
And instead of biology too, quantum mechanics
Because quantum mechanics makes sense
Currently don’t have other options, but thanks.
are you sure
More than chemistry or biology or russian
Yet again, the Starbucks Saga continues. Last time we got a discounted order of 2.02 (originally 9.83), today we got ANOTHER 2.02 (also originally 9.83). So far, we got 2 on houses and 2 2.02s. What will be next?

Make a spreadsheet
As Oceloctopus said, repetition is a good tool. But when talking about homework, I think of compulsory education. Based on my personal experience, compulsory education is terrible

Finished midterms this week
I was quite worried about my test for the c++ class I’m in but I made an A so we’re doing great
Ayyyyy
I'm in a constant fluctuating state of "Filled with crippling ennui" and "actively distracting myself from the crippling ennui"
you?
Fine thank you. Happy fluctuating!
Its going great so far, today, I've got something like an 85% duty cycle going
good, i just learned that i need to be nerfed with a judge in haven in valorant while defending
Now that's a great amplitude!
I’m doing pretty good! I slept for like 12 hours which was nice

Hi, I'm in college and I have to present the job I want to do later
Since I want to be a composer for video games and I'm an absolute fan of Darren Korb, it would help me a lot if I could ask him about his profession
How could I contact him?
(I'm sorry for my catastrophic English, I had to use google translate...)
Dionysus is such a likeable character, there is none like it.
I suppose you could try tweeting at the man.
But before you do that I suggest checking out the noclip documentaries on Hades. Darren talks about his process for a lot of SGG projects in those videos. I think there are also some videos on GDC where Darren talks about his work, sometimes with Greg Kasavin or other members of the team.
There will also probably be a Q&A with Supergiant some time in the future (they did it once, they'll probably do it again) — it helps to have specific questions jotted down at that time to pitch them as soon as the opportunity comes up.
Also, try checking out the last AMA log that's here on this Discord, there might be something useful in there.
there's also some great analysis videos by like videogame fanfare and 8 bit music theory
if that helps at all
Unrelated but still important:
Awoo
I'm so tired I'm kinda jealous
Before that I haven't slept for 24
But the only bad part about it is that it's 20:10 I only just woke up therefore my sleep schedule is again ruined
Thank you!
listen i love the great outdoors and all but i am sick of sand and bugs i am ready to go home and play rain world
We have rain at outdoors
but do you have a bed that does not deflate
anywho hi everyone how are yall
People who says money doesn't buy happiness when they realize that you can't be happy without being alive and you die without money:
so the roasting class I took has an online written exam that I can take anytime before 28 feb. Did couple sessions of reading the modules and notes that I took. Today, I got my most comfy pajamas to take the exam on.
....just to find out the website is down
welp, time to gaem
Well maybe they don't like you wearing pajamas to their exam!
They asked chatbot what you're wearing 
👀
I thought for like a minute it's a class on roasting as in roasting people
They dont taste very good
…how do you know
🙂
oh please, I don't need such class 
please repost that in #self-promotion instead :]
okie, sorry about that
Money doesn't buy happiness but it makes a lot of grief go away
technically you could live without money.. just not in modern society
or idk communism
money makes it easier to achieve happiness
communism isn't a modern society either tbh it's a postmodern society
yeah cuz it's like, very hard to achieve and involves moving humanity to a different level basically
an utopian society
yeah that makes sense
tbh i do not mind just trying to exist in this society
i used to be really into philosphy and thought i was very smart for it but i don't care as much anymore
i would like to make pretty things in life
i'm also really really tired
I'm tired even beforehand I'm not gonna survive working I can't even do homework like literally I'm not I can't work simply I can't I'm tired from it before starting it I don't have any plans for me past 18
You could also say that money being a necessity leads to grief
Gotta love global unchallenged capitalism

hoii
the thing about the phrase "money can't buy happiness" is that it's meant to be aimed at people who already have enough money to live comfortably. if you've met your needs and are living well, seeking more money just for the sake of being rich won't fulfill you
and if you're already that rich, you can't use that phrase on people who have less than you
"money can't buy happiness"
said jeff bezos to a minimum wage worker
yeah but good health does
having your basic needs met
not struggling to make ends meet does
exactly - should be the worker saying that to bezos. who wouldn't listen, of course, but still
he wouldn't listen cause he can't hear it from his space shuttle
sound doesn't travel in space
on a semi-related topic, it's a shame that the iss will be decommissioned in a few years and probably replaced by corporate built stations
my plan is try and do what makes me not tired and try very hard not to burn out on that
I don't know which hour do you have but in my country it's 00:00, so happy valentines! 
hell yeah
it's still the 13th here but i'm pretty exicted for valentines
i get to chill and then go buy discount chocolate the next day
Hope you don't spend this day alone
so actually.. what can be gifted to somebody who doesn't eat sugar? what are modern alternatives for standard chocolate?
and happy valentines for everybody with GMT+1 and above c:
i don't see the problem with that tbh
i'll probably just hang out with friends or something or just stay home and draw
like i said itll be great
Pure cocoa powder 
Make sugarless chocolate
make wasabiless wasabi- oh wait that already exists
Cook their favorite food! Doesn't have to be chocolate related
Make wasabi with extra wasabi
Heart shaped pizza would be probably great if their favorite food is pizza which is a like 1/2 chance it is
Just thought of something, kids aren't cruel, their parents are
Hey my parents are nice
Well I'm just talking about the specific phrase like people say kids are cruel but those kids who are cruel aren't cruel because kids are cruel but because their parents are cruel
If anyone dares to be happy today, just remember I am hoping you have a bad day
But kraja just said happy! Oh no
Oh I’m absolutely miserable
omg the smiths refference ‼️
Being stuck in a mall surrounded by things I absolutely despise for 12 hours ?
Marvelous
Lovely
<3
Stop
that's often true but it's not so simple either. kids need time to develop empathy, it's not automatically given. so things they do might seem cruel, even if they're not doing them out of true malice, but just because they don't have the capacity to empathize with others yet
Empathy is a skill, a lot of adults never dedicated enough time to learn it as a kid (or after that)
It's clearer in kids, but it's something that we can find elsewhere too. And not everyone needs the same time to develop it
I was so excited for valentines day
Kids also lack a lot of understanding of consequences
Why?
I dont rlly wanna talk about why I was excited persay
I’m just gonna take it as a day to practice self love since i really need some of that
I’m just gonna take it as a day to test my tolerance
For bull crap at work
And alcohol after work
I've had to put off my Nyx tattoo due to work obligations 😔
😔😔
Nooo not the maternal figure tattoooo
im??
also i got a bunch of tea
Might do hades inspired drinks
Nyx would be a pretty cool maternal figure tbh
i want to get a Red tattoo someday
That would be epic
Im contemplating about mine being a Beksinski painting somewhere near my ribs
that's bound to hurt
rib area is rather sensitive and beksinski's style requires a lot of poking
but I'll be rooting for you, beksinski good
We need a zagreus gigachad emoji so my Yes's has more impact
okay
i just made a red one so. might as well
oh i put it in fanworks and then deleted itbc i needed to change a few tings
“No murder”
Yes I am an Athena enjoyer how could you tell
deflective dash, my beloved
so satisfying to return enemy projectiles by running away
Mom material
Well this does give me more time to play Hades BUT. What if. I watched Xena Warrior Princess
I want her to greet me with PANCAKES whenever I wake up.
Being woke up by a smell is the best thing ever
hnnnngh
Also idk who needs to hear this but adding fenugreek into your diet will make you smell like maple syrup
So that's another way to smell like pancakes
I long for these saturday mornings when I would wake up at like 12 because of the vanilla and rum scents of the pancakes mom does
l'Occitane has honey-smelling perfumes that always make me crave honey pancakes with walnuts and a swirl of whipped cream
should buy one
Might need to look into it because my pancake perfume smells like slightly burnt pancakes lmfao
Like toasty pancakes
I'm not a fan of smokey scents on me
i want pancakes now
that is excellent, thank you
Lmao
This is amazing
“in order to try my mechanical powers” sounds like he just wanted to put his cat in a suit
Man becomes so bored that his only recourse is to dress his cat
if you took away the old language it could’ve happened in 2020
Impossible . Probably would just spend all day watching youtube 
obviously they had youtube in the bg while they sewed their cats suit
Oh...
Pay day is coming soon....
you should
Figured this might be a good place to ask
Does anyone know the term historians use for the kind of cultural stuff in history we lose the meaning for because it was considered ‘common knowledge’ at the time and thus was never written down?
have you tried the tipofmytongue subreddit?
Don't know if there is a term, but kinda related (and interesting) https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roman_dodecahedron
A Roman dodecahedron or Gallo-Roman dodecahedron is a small hollow object made of copper alloy which has been cast into a regular dodecahedral shape: twelve flat pentagonal faces, each face having a circular hole of varying diameter in the middle, the holes connecting to the hollow center. Roman dodecahedra date from the 2nd to 4th centuries AD ...

Hello
For the first time in my life, I see all TV channels come together and broadcast live.
you can help.
if i remember correctly, this thing was supposed to anomalously expand inner dimensions of an enclosed structure, without altering its outer dimensions
naturally, it's not supposed to be kept inside of something
So what if you ate it
There's also this famous event: https://mavengame.com/2019/04/the-third-shaker/
started doing mockups on reds dress
i got the bodice part pretty perfect but the sleeves are giving me some trouble
The skirt should be simple enough though
sleeves are deceptively simple
my first thought was ancient roman D&D so take that as you will
i think it would be a d12?
I don't know the words but it looks like her sleeves were intended to just be two pieces of fabric slung over each shoulder
nods
I’m actually so excited to do the collar
Gonna have to find the right feathers and then paint them but itll be so cool once its done
won't lie. i want some cookie dough rn
the edible not-eggy kind
preferably with rainbow sprinkles or peanut m&ms.
my fabric for red got here 👀👀👀👀👀
its so perfect
Cant show the closeups though cause discord doesnt want me too
its crepe back satin so the backside of it is matte
Yo what's that for?
Without context this pic says you are testing mechanical powers on cat
i am!!

i will test my mechanical powers and make the cat a little red cosplay one day
So like a lot of americans say states have very different culture
Is there someone american here who can explain in what way the cultures of the states are different
I may have made a horrible mistake
Did you accidentally eat a whole big cake in the fridge?
Hey guys good morning, I just woke up to the realization that in all of the car movies we never see lighting McQueen actually win any of the competitions he enters
So, the south and the north are very different, due to climate and all that, where states like Georgia, Alabama and Texas focus more on agriculture, while states like New York and New Jersey are focused more on industrial stuff.
Culture wise, it varies with every state. While states like Louisiana love to shrimp and have crab boils, states like California enjoy complaining and going to the beach.
That's just kinda a thrown together mess from my morning brain, but hopefully it helps
well that's not exactly culture
We're white people, we can't even have seasoned food
cuisine and behavior are definitely part of culture
you mean englanders
all other white people have normal food
economical focus isn't though it's just normal inside country division or even inside a city
economics shape societies and as a result - their cultures
well you got everyone and nobody's culture is dominant
The economical aspect very much contributes to the culture of the different states
Exactly
i doubt that
not really even in a very small country that is just one culture some parts can be industrial and some agricultural and other
even on the smallest communal scale, the neighbourhood, you can have cultural differences based on economics
e.g. a miners' town has different culture than one that is focused on cider production or sewing
but how exactly like do in different states people dress different speak different eat different food listen to different music have different homes have different saying myths superstitions have different communal habits etc etc etc?
Yes
the colder north likely dresses very differently from the swampy heat or desert scorch of southern states
And most southern states are bipolar asf
well I don't mean like climate based difference more like style based difference
can you give examples
Rn, it's winter so everyone is wearing pants and hoodies
In the summer we wear t shirts and shorts
i think god might be looking for sth like ethno costumes, in which case it would be more apt to look into First peoples' traditions, since they were the ones with actual local traditions in such clothes
, I'm looking around my school Cafe and that's really all I'm seeing, and I go to a very culturally diverse school
what do you see, for example?
Hoodies and pants
Lots of latin-americans, African-americans, asian-americans, etc. Etc.
in my country the cultural difference is basically between the federal disctricts and also some large rich cities stand out because they are, well, capitals of their regions and capitals are always different
the most difference is between rest of the country, the capital, and the cultural capital
In Georgia we have peaches?
Our schools prepare us for factories, we haven't updated it since the 20th century
like the cultural capital is way more "cultured" of course but also people are generally more educated more left leaning there's a lot of different saying myths inside jokes specific to this city the accent is different some words are just other words and people dress basically more "european" as the city is also known as "window to europe" food that people eat is different but honestly not exactly a lot since people are poor anyway and cats are more revered there are very very very many statues and places and landmarks that basically everybody knows and all have some beliefs or something like that tied to them idk how it is in america with idols but they're all about the same importance as idk statue of liberty for example also due to climate being very grim there are like 70 sunny days in a year and the city suffering through a lot especially in ww2 and because of many other events and people and many other stuff like reading more and being more educated and knowledgeable the citizens generally have more cynical personalities and humor is generally darker
dear lord
also that's not really difference between the states it's between larger parts of the country
it certainly affects the states too
well it could be argued that in my country states(they're not called states here but they're the same) are also culturally different and there's 83 of them and they're about the same size as american ones but they're just simply not that strongly different and grouping them by districts makes more sense
gradually though, not each state by itself
i don't get what you're looking for, tbh
if the southern states are all not so different then states aren't different north and west are
Me neither
They are very different
California and Florida are VASTLY different
But they focus on similar things
all south
hell I don't know either I just heard a lot of people say the states have very different cultures and I'm interested how exactly
College football 👍
well, people from all over the world have been immigrating to the US for centuries
so it's a melting pot of very different cultures, amplified by local environments
so, like is some state just very french or something
idk if it can be so simple
have you tried mixing all the paint you have
Looks like vomit
nah vomit ain't that dark
you shouldn't simplify things like that if you want an actual truthful discourse on the topic
it can get disrespectful
I always got like greenish very dark brown
am not simplifying am applying a metaphor to not type a very long message
i don't think the metaphor works for the US
?
I think Justin Bieber got it pretty right, he got his peaches down in Georgia, and his weed from California
I basically meant that when a lot of things in the same category mix it all turns out pretty much the same even if you multiply one of the thing sevenfold
so... this is just plain wrong if you try to apply it as a metaphor for the US
Bro never had purple haze from romania
Huh
trollface
like you're saying that a lot of cultures mix together in usa but it's not an argument for it being culturally different in some parts because with many cultures you just have a mix of cultures everywhere and if it is indeed meant as an argument then you should continue it further as it doesn't make that much sense yet and I would very much like to see it unfold in all it's being and start making sense
well, this is just general discussion, not a debates club
I just kinda offered a response to her question
I sold a message in the art possible limit say a solution to the problems de
very art
Very
I see I've overestimated the level of engagement of my opponent with the conversation yet again however nothing indicated such
don't be so snobby, god
not caring enough to engage in deeper discussion doesn't necessarily mean it's not possible
you just woke up
I made a mistake on my alarm
I got up at 5 instead of 6 💀
owww that hurts
I am literally a citizen of my city that's what we are most known for all the country the capital are considered huge snobs yet citizens of the capital consider us, citizens of the cultural capital huge snobs, we're the apex snob, every day when we wake up we say it's snobbing time and then snob on everything
as a night owl, it hurts
Morning brain will not go away until tomorrow
didn't say it was not possible
oof
G
Old
also in what way I was snobby exactly
.
you see my abilities to detect snobbiness are not great at all and I do not see how this is a snob message
It was kinda rude
how exactly
"I've overestimated the abilities of my opponents in debate once again"
Basically saying you think we're stupider than you thought we were
haughty might have been the better word
At least that's how I read it
I did not say abilities
not even close
oh ma gawd bro 💀
level of engagement very obviously means current state like cmon bruhhhh how can you warp my word like that
😈 that's the one thing Americans are pretty good at
Warping words to make things sound bad
btw some alcohol is hundreds of years old but nothing beats water's 4.6 billion years
Finely aged
I do meet that a lot on the internet however I am not exactly sure most people who did that were american as that is hard to confirm
what is btd7
Bloons Tower Defense 7
oh
vs 🎈
zeppelins 2: rebirth
I feel like in last couple weeks reddit is getting more and more toxic
I love the swipe type on my phone
and most nd and queer ones
Lobbing punky squirrels
Monster Ghostbusters
and furry subs
Hmm?
hmm what
furries are some of the friendliest and safest communities on the internet
also star wars is great if you ignore sequels discourse
Oh I meant nothing by it, I was more just thinking about my stupid bio honors class
It's not hard, it's just time wasting
biology sucks
Yes
I have Healthcare, and next year we gonna disect dead cats
wtf
But rn we doing cpr
that's awful
No they dead
I don't think the school would like that very much
Not for me, I plan on being a veterinarian
Organs are important
in my city we love cats very much and there are many jokes about dismemberment in here because it happened several times and that's more than anywhere
Huh, my city loves not filling potholes
my whole country has incredibly bad roads
If you ever visit the US, don't go to kansas
Or any of the midwest
There's nothing there
I'm not gonna visit USA at all tbh
don't wanna go to a country that has that many guns and uses imperial system gonna be very uncomfortable
as I'm russian arguably no country wants me
2:1 gun to people ratio tbh
The band kids at my school would
it actually happened only twice but very recently and hit the news and you know how public is
why
Nvm, i just realized soviet and Russia are very different
But the band kids are all weird and unfunny, and think communism is good, and that doing the nzi Salute is funny
well....
that's how it was with half the class at my school
but like ironically at least
and not exactly communism but just left views and soviet communism is well not exactly left or even communism so kinda different
tankies are awful
They blasted the soviet anthem during a test last year
I mean to us russian teenagers of my specific cultural group idk how to call it hearing soviet anthem or erika or some muslim or crusader battle march is funny af but it's probably different context
and there are people who adore ussr here but they're mostly very old people
like you know the "it was great in the past" ones
Yes
There's teens at my school who unironically want America to go back to the 1800s
I fought one of them
I've never fought anyone since I was like 6
I won, he was a 🐈
St. Petersburg resident spotted
ah yes, Raschleningrad
city of bandits, cops and eternal gloomy sky
i'd like to visit it someday. despite all the things they say about it, there is some kind of vibe about the city
bright nights, drawbridges, atmosphere of old culture
especially comparing to always busy bustling Moscow
Definitely do visit
Also, whenever I mention I'm from saint petersburg to someone not from saint petersburg their next words are either about salt or dismemberment
Looks like a mouse
Huh?
🤨
TFW you're playing a game with a chiptunes soundtrack and you're like, "Why wasn't this soundtrack composed by toby fox? I wonder if I can put the deltarune songs in here"
relatable
(flashbacks about regular cleaning of mouse rolling ball)
I love how hades has a whole category while the other games just have #pyre , #transistor and #bastion
Plus the fans for that are smaller since they’re prettyz old games
The mouse is so cute !
It kinda reminds me of reggie
hello
Nono, i took ibuprofen and alka-seltzer together
but i think i should be okay bc it was children's ibuprofen but still
i also got a new mouse and keyboard, very basic but i just needed one
if it helps i took my nightime medicine this morning
my nightime medicine which includes a pretty big dose of hydroxyzine
which explains why i feel so tired
Ah
I've just been really sick the past couple of days and have hardly slept bc of it so I wasnt really thinking
yeah no i get it :( hope you feel better soon
ive been having a really rough time lately too
Just in case y'all need to hear it: your struggles are valid
red mockups are doing pretty well
finally got the bodice sleeves right and then i just do the skirt
then i take it apart to make into a proper dress lmfao
@fast marlin do you already have your transistor?
nope
don't think ill be able to make one in time, especially not to the quality id prefer
whats the time limit?
end of this month
plus itll be expensive
id want to make it out of acrylic but i've never worked with acrylic
wait no end of march oops
Must be tough shaping those silicon wafers
Hello
I have emerged from a creative activity
my brain is more wrinkled
and on fire

My impression of this place was formed in like, January-February. I went over there to check out some Master's programs in St. Pete's universities. Walked from Moskovskiy Rail Terminal all the way to Vasilievskiy Ostrov — the wind chill was severe. The aforementioned gloom didn't help, either.
Did some more walking in the downtown after that. Fine town, but way too close to the shoreline for my taste. I prefer to live further inland.
Also, for better or for worse, I was born and raised in Moscow. I just... feel at home here. City's got a fast-paced rhythm to it, but you don't really notice it until you leave it.
Re: new PC peripherals
I got me one of these
https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/321787392602144770/1075029743923114084/1.png?width=1188&height=696
Doesn't look like much but it is really well built. Doesn't have quite the same feel to it as my modern custom board or my vintage IBM Model M, but it's a solid board, and it's reasonably portable for a full-size keyboard.
I find myself in need of a PS/2 board every once in a while, and this should serve me well for that purpose.
The embiggened lower row slopes down towards the user, and I really appreciate that. I tend to type at an angle, and this is a nice touch for me.

TFW you skip the gym because you're already in pain -_-
I've always thought writing novels or stories in general are tiring. I never thought they're also mentally draining at times 
When people say it's "tiring", they mean precisely that: mental exhaustion.
Typing or moving a pen around is not, in itself, an exhausting activity.
Writing with a pen or pencil can be physically tiring tho 
If you write very quick a lot of text sure but when you think before writing every word it's not gonna be fast enough to be physically exhausting
me and my abdomen
What if they write while running or cycling!
But then they don't get tired from writing then they get tired from cycling or running
Jokes aside, freewriting might help
I have to do a lot of typing for my work. I have tried a lot of stuff but the general trend for me is the lighter the keystroke, the better.
I tried typing on keyboards with rather heavy actuation force and found that while I enjoy how sharp and precise each keystroke feels, doing a lot of typing does make my fingertips numb at the end of the day.
Maybe it's because of how I type. I press keys very forcefully, so I bottom out on every keystroke. But that's just how I like it!
I found a writing implement that feels right to me and saw a genuine boost in productivity. I think it's worth experimenting around with what's out there, whether you type or write by hand. When I'm looking forward to the tactile experience of writing instead of dreading it, I'm more inclined to start working instead of putting it off (as I often like to do).
😄

I was listening to sabaton and looked at the video and the auto generated captions said "you will trans" so true
things to listen
- Not Sabaton
- Sabaton
That basically encapsulates all music
eeeeexactly
random thought:
modern microwave ovens miss one important function: silent mode
it's not cool when your roommates/parents/others have to listen for those DINGs and BEEPs in the middle of the night
and it's not always cool to eat cold food either
soon.....i will have no money left :D
Right?! How come they connected microwaves to the internet before they thought to put a silent mode in them?
yo
who got hired to do the art in this game
like
does the person have a twitter or inta
if youre talking about hades, you can ask in #h1-discussion! this is the off topic section of the discord 
I'd be willing to bet a bajillion dollars that there have been microwaves with silent modes but no one has actually wanted that feature enough for it to become a primary marketing option like "Popcorn button"
in this age of capitalist device manufacturing: if a feature doesn't sell more products it may as well not exist
98% of customers that had a silent mode on their microwave never found it because it was hidden in the manual because putting the key on the buttons gave the industrial designer heart palpitations
There also almost certainly is a document somewhere, be it email or memo or white paper that contains a comparison of the beeps of the microwave to a baby and thus is important for intearcting with customers on a primal level
want to know a neat factoid?
about microwaves?
the holes of the mesh on the window of the microwave is actually smaller than the size of the microwave photons themselves
its also why you can't see them because they're just too big(that and they'll boil your eyes)
Sweet man made horrors
There are a few sciency videos I watched a bit ago where someone wanted to record the inside of the microwave, and they just cut a big hole in the back and slapped a camera on it. Explained the same thing here.
Put it underwater, no fire hazard
I never owned a microwave in my 30+ years actually... Yeah just do that 
wouldnt know
Woke up saturday morning, it’s sunday night now
I was just making orders yest, today I roasted some beans 
maybe itll make silksong come out sooner
this is like the most comfortable bed ive ever been in and im only staying here for the night
could've been worse
could be there's no long pillow to hug 
idk the english word for that
or if that even has one
Ah yes, commonly known as the elongated cylindrical somnus assistance utennsil
body pillow?
No need to thank me
How much first names can one legally have
Legal depends on which govt i guess
It would be cool to have a passport and the name section is like star wars opening credits
And there are so many good names
It appears that mostly only one first name is allowed
Wait middle names exist in other countries
Apparently you can have multiple of middle names so that's cool
oh god, what a reference
btw I googled "long names" and they're like 3-4 syllables mostly like how's that long that's pretty average
Google jugemu jugemu
relatable
H-how 
I also gonna name myself every name
Good luck, jugemu
TFW you're watching a youtube video about motivation and it just turns into a 30 minute critique of the capitalist system.
to do: get enough motivation to overthrow society
its actually a really cool video and I think @mossy trail would like be incensed by it a lot: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fe-SZ_FPZew
Grading is a scam and motivation is a myth. Those sound like bold words, but today we're going to dive down the rabbit hole and prove, once and for all, that our current state of schooling (and of...well...everything) is rotten to its core.
...that's all a little dramatic, but that really is the goal of this video. Our schools are broken, our...
I watched it like half a year ago very good video
love that video!
Also we are being evacuated for a fire alarm what a fun way to start a vacation

monitor warships are underappreciated
it's always either the wooden ships or the 20th century ships everybody are fans of
well all of 19th century tbh
I prefer those giant hovercraft and/or LPDs
lpds?
An amphibious transport dock, also called a landing platform dock (LPD), is an amphibious warfare ship, a warship that embarks, transports, and lands elements of a landing force for expeditionary warfare missions. Several navies currently operate this kind of ship. The ships are generally designed to transport troops into a war zone by sea, prim...
oh the landing craft
modern ones are less landing craft and more landing staging platforms
the cargo helicopters and the hovercraft are the actual landing craft
the superior landing method is surely high velocity airdrop
lithobraking is cool but it has its downsides
isn't lithobraking just... a crash
not always!
well an intentional crash is a crash still
I told my bro, who was watching white house down, there's another movie released at same time with the same premise (olympus has fallen)
And now he's watching them both back to back
hi
True
Why do beds throughout history get comfier as time passes?
Why does natural selection favor this particular trait?
Imagine where we would be if their evolution gets too powerful to resist
in our beds, i guess
all day long
...to maximize profit?
mornin', nerds.

Everybody made jokes about Ohio and now Ohio is actually going crazy
my username in a discord server is ohio

Why exactly do You Say that?
Well the derailment and now some big explosion at some factory
Oh damn

The worst thing that can happen in my city is that someone gets run over.
Cuz thats common
The worst thing that theoretically could happen to my city is the nearby nuclear electricity station blowing up
But like the worst thing that happened recently is some famous singer got killed and they found him in parts in a bag in a river
The worst thing can happen me rn is if My light come out
Or something like that, i don't know how to speak English
Power outage
My family is
Interesting!
my immediate family is from vaguely American places and my very distant family is in poland
What do You mean with vaguely american places?
🫣 from places in america
i was trying to remember if i knew anyone from venezuela and i did know someone

hmm
depends on what youre looking for
new york is expensive and busy but it’s also pretty awesome
It is
new york has rats and bagels
i personally hate LA but its a decent place for artists and actors
none 
not wrong!
atlanta has a huge artist and cosplay community if youre into that but also its the south so yknow
I dont think this is the best time to move to the US 💀
i’ve been debating going abroad for or after college
thinking about where my american friends live/d, maybe seattle, if you're rich
honolulu if you’re rich and want to be confined to an island 
but its pretty
and touristy
and it sucks
Why?
too many tourists, its gross, literally the only good things are the views and beaches
always good to visit, not good to live
Like japan
yeah sorta
if you're looking for a place that has a decent number of people that speaks spanish: southern california (LA), and certain texan cities might work
washington state or washington dc?
They re not the same right?
i know nothing of portland but hank green likes it and i have friends in the area
nope!
Hmmm
dc is the capital of the us, washington is a state

I crossed the Frontier to Colombia, and i was on it for a week
very weird compared to HI
people are addicted to their cloudy nicotine in nz/australia
The vape is really famous rn
colombia is very cool
Yeah, it is
yup at my school they're always telling people to not vape
i know some people from there
Yeah
When i learn how to speak English good, i would like to mix it with My spanish dialect
Uughh
I feel this si embarrasing, i would use the traductor in this cases, but i want to take it from myself
And it's not too efective that option
Teenagers totally do that here but not many adults that i know of
I know adults in My city do too the vaping action
i love that!
you'll get good at it! it takes practice and time
