i'd imagine it's because its users aren't getting phished (small pool of people that's hard to target + no monetary gain + no connection to other accounts) and they just don't give enough of a fuck to change anything
while other sites want to either prevent fuckery or add some barriers to make them less responsible for others getting hacked

From what I've heard it's a site that's quite comfortable with the idea that it might disappear forever in the next 5 minutes and no one really cares. I'm not a manga guy so I never bothered signing up, but I think there's a lot of people in OP's situation as it's fallen into disuse. It's not going to have an active account help system because there's no one there to run it. My assumption is that it's just on autopilot with someone paying the bills and not paying attention, like many older sites.

I like the Bo as well, I actually have one and I have been trained how to use them a bit. My Karate dojo trains with the Bo instead of Nunchucks because they are easier to get and you can actually make them yourself pretty easily.

My Bo is simply a 6 foot length of Tasmanian oak that I got from a hardware store, I sanded it smooth and then oiled it and people at the dojo would say that it was better than the one they had which they brought from a proper martial arts store.

I've seen that guy posted elsewhere on the internet before (years ago) and his humor really never clicked for me. I remember him as some happy-go-lucky guy that looked like he was 12 so it's weird to see him with a beard and long hair being serious. He reminded me of silly 00s internet humor, although a bit dated by the time he did it. So it's a whole movie of unlinked skits or something? I don't know how the suicide clips relates to an internet song.
Comedians swerving into serious territory isn't something I generally like too much. I've never really seen any of them do it well, they seem to add humor where it shouldn't be and can't take things seriously enough, perhaps because they feel pressured to perform due to their reputation and career. There's the saying about the jester being the only one allowed to speak truth in front of the king (or however that went), but I don't think it really applies to most of these people.

I'm not sure what the last movie I saw was...

>>133081
>So it's a whole movie of unlinked skits or something?
Essentially, yes. Typically 3-5 minute scenes, but some are really short, less than 30-45 seconds. I wouldn't call them "skits." There's not really any punchlines. They're all loosely connected in that they're about isolation and alienation. The film is set during the COVID lockdowns and, according to the film, Bo never leaves his house for nearly a year, and doesn't until the very end whereupon he's locked out and wants to go back inside. This was probably my favorite scene. It was completely out of left field, but it's amazing in recreating the exact sort thing he's critiquing.

>I don't know how the suicide clips relates to an internet song.
Between the scenes you would consider "worth watching", are shots of the disorganized and cluttered room Bo lives in. They're moments where you can faintly glimpse into the mind of the author and empathize with the same feelings during the pandemic of loneliness, and cabin fever. Maybe these concepts don't translate well to an audience that wasn't bothered during the pandemic and not being able to go outside or interact with people...

Watched Robocop 1 & 2, both films were enjoyable, very enjoyable.

Death in Venice is the kind of film that people think cinephiles go wild for.

It's about a troubled artist that goes down to the titular city for a vacation and runs into a boy so incredibly beautiful that it fucking destroys him. You'd be tempted to compare this to Lolita, but it's a totally different story: the two never interact, it's more about the mental state of the guy and his reaction to the sublime (done through commendable acting), as well as a depiction of a luxurious setting at the same time that a cholera outbreak begins to tear it down. But it's very hard to say that anything happens, it's mostly walking around in very normal situations with only a couple scenes where the guy actually talks about what he's thinking, there's no narration or anything. Ultimately, he drops dead from cholera, sitting in a chair at the beach, unceremoniously.

One review Wikipedia quotes says that some shots "could be extracted from the frame and hung on the walls of the Louvre or the Vatican in Rome" and given how much they have been reproduced and reposted (particularly those from pic's scene) I absolutely agree. I downloaded the book it comes from and found its rebuttals quite funny:
>Other critics afflicted with private blind-spots have called Death in Venice boring, tedious, slow, devoid of action, pointless, without catharsis, etc. All of which, I humbly suggest, indicates more about the shallowness and obtusity of the individual critic than about the intrinsic qualities of this superior film.
>Death in Venice is not a story about a pretty teenager and a dirty old man. It is superficial to carp about "nothing happening,” "lack of confrontation,” "absence of catharsis.” For here we are faced with a complex and sophisticated mood piece, relentless in its pursuit of esthetic truth. The boy and the man never converse; why should they? Their unique communion is not based on the banalities of social intercourse, nor is it founded on coarse physicality.
Lol, lmao even. It's not wrong, but, you know, it's not a film I would recommend to anyone ever. He also downplays the homosexuality in favor of more abstract ideals, that part I do disagree with. Ebert's review is better.
I also watched a 2021 documentary where they explain how he was impacted by it and the situation in general, how a kid was given global fame and thrust into a situation he didn't understand while Post too long. Click here to view the full text.

If the guy before you had a smaller penis then it's gay until you penetrate further than he did and then it's straight again.

If you have to pay a woman for sex that is pretty fucking gay.

There are no guy acts, just gay thoughts. Intention is key. If fucking a man's ass while thinking about pussy is gay, then masturbation is also gay

people think that touhou is a doujin product but it's more like a franchise that lost it's intelectual property rights nowadays

>>132953
Yeah. The "doujin spirit" is still there somewhat in Japan since the physical cons and events there are still popular, but online it's a FFA. As long as you don't break the rules on fan creation (which really only applies to charging money on it) you're good to do whatever with those characters and setting. Making a Touhou mod of X isn't going to make ZUN or his faggy lawyer hunt you down, unlike say Nintendo, Capcom, or Games Workshop. But this is for small time creators, they have different rules for corporations which I imagine they still have to go through the hoops for permissions. I doubt McDonalds can slap Doll Judgement in an ad and not at least pay lip service to ZUN.

>>132947
I don't think so, it's altered too much from the original.

>>132953
Zun never sold the IP... He still owns it.

>>132964
Copyright is an incredibly complex topic. Zun has always come down on people trying to make and sell Touhou fan games but making a fangame of a franchise is legal so long as it's not made for commercial gains. That's the same thing with mods, though mods can still be illegal but that's due to terms of service and not copyright(some games put restrictions against mods in their terms of service).

The way Touhou is managed is not actually that different to any other franchise.

I couldn't care less about streaming sites, those ad ridden hell holes are better off dead. They're no better than any legal streaming site; taking money from viewers and keeping most, if not all, to themselves. But streaming sites are a good way to keep the tards away from torrenting sites, but now even the torrent sites are coming to light. Before you'd have to google "anime torrenting websites", which was still s

I refuse to use these services or use the self checkout. I'm not bagging my own groceries and I'm not letting some random person pick out my meats, veggies and fruits. I don't use the self checkout because I don't want people to lose their jobs. They've already gotten rid of bag boys and forced the cashiers to do double duty. Now they close check out lanes and have one person watching over 4+ self checkout registers. It's annoying and the things always make you wait for someone to come over and confirm you aren't stealing.

I stopped shopping at one big box store because of these problems. If I go to my local grocery store they always have 5+ lanes open and the selection of meats is much better because it has a real butcher shop inside. They also have a real bakery.

Going to the grocery store is like the only reason why I leave the house anymore. So I guess I do "socialize" with the people there. I also like being able to walk around with a firearm inside of them. I usually run into random people also carrying and we talk shop about guns and I've even gone to the range with a few of them in the past. Never had a bad experience so far. At least the police haven't been called. I did have one lady who was obviously a Cali or NYC transplant freak out about it once and stop recording me and she threatened to call the police. But then a bunch of other people with firearms started to gather around and told her to stop being stupid. She got scared and ran off. With any hope she went back to where she came from. Our are has become flooded with such people since covid. They all moved here because of the cheap land/rent and they've been trying to get a lot of the local laws changed.

Anyway, I try to support local business so I won't use these services. We didn't even have uber and whatever the fast food delivery services were until a year or two ago. We tried one of the fast food ones but it ended up costing $10+ more than usual and the food was cold by the time it got here. I saw a lot of people doing it for side money at first but it finally calmed down. People don't like random people touching their food and we don't have lazy people here to support that kind of business plan.

My ultimate goal is no longer having to use the grocery store at all. At least not weekly. I'm working on getting chickens and eventually other livestock. I already have some cows. I want to add pigs and goats into the mix along with the chickens. I want toPost too long. Click here to view the full text.

I rambled in my last reply as I usually do. I just wanted to add; The absolute worst thing about covid was all the 24/7 businesses closing and those hours never returning. I used to get all my grocery shopping done between the hours of 1-4am. It was really comfy and usually I was the only person in the store. There was always at least one checkout lane open with an actual person manning it.

Since the panic no place stays open past about 9pm here excluding the one 24/7 gas station. So now I'm forced to shop with all the other people and I hate it. The local grocery store isn't that bad. But if I go into any of the big chain grocery stores it's awful. The worst humanity has to offer on full display. People are rude and always on edge. They don't discipline their children and let them run all over the place. I've even had some steal things right out of my shopping cart just because they were too lazy to walk a few ales over and get it themselves.

Now I only go to the local place where none of the new transplants set foot in. They think it's a "racist store" because of the name or something. I don't know why they refuse to enter it since it's named after the guy's family that owns it. But whatever the reason I'm thankful. These people are insane. They assume all the locals are dumb and they keep trying to "educate" us on social issues. We never had a problem with "racism" until they started moving here in droves. City won't do anything about them because they're made so much money off taxing the new residents since covid. We've had a lot of outsider investors coming in to convert old factories and buildings into apartments for these people. They even let them have a bar right on main street after denying the locals that for years. We'll probably be bred out in a generation or two.

I get free bags at self-checkout

The past few months I've tried ordering protein bars in bulk off Amazon, but I don't think this is the way to be doing things. I think this stuff is cheaper to buy at Costco, but Costco has a limited selection in the store naturally. I think you can order stuff online from them, but I've heard it's not as cheap.

Do people ever make their own protein bars? I wonder how that would work, just buying a bunch of oats and peanut butter and stuff. but I don't think it would last for weeks at a time without vacuum sealing or something...

>>132651
>Do people ever make their own protein bars?
you can make a big sheet of it then cut it up into lines but it's definitely not going to last you weeks and i'm not sure how practical it is for someone who's looking to buy in bulk in the first place

I think most of the stuff has already been said so I can't offer much. I guess you should avoid drying out your skin, which means you should avoid taking showers too often. Those people that shower every day (or even twice!) are stripping away all the oil and beneficial bacteria that keeps the skin protected. Obviously it can't be avoided if you have a physical job and you get sweaty/dirty, though. I guess you would need a good moisturizing cream setup in that situation.

>>131930
Oh yeah, speaking of washing. People say you should avoid "sodium lauryl sulfate" in soap and shampoo as it's very effective at removing oils. That can be a good thing when it comes to cleaning contaminates, but it can also be a bad thing since it's so good at removing the body's protective oils. When you get stuff without it, though, it's far less effective at producing a lather so it's more annoying to use.

Facial hear has an impact, often when I find out how old a Youtuber is it surprises me because they are actually younger than I think they are, often they are even younger than me. Atlas Pro is an example of this(I forget how old he is but I know it was younger than I am).

>In 2018, he became a Riichi Mahjong professional affiliated with the Japan Professional Mahjong League. In the same year he was drafted by the Team RAIDEN professional Mahjong team for the participation of the team Riichi Mahjong tournament M-League.

That was great, although a little bit drawn out at times to build suspense which I don't always enjoy.
Since we didn't actually see any splats, I was expecting a reveal that the people that fell were actually falling into netting and hidden away. I guess a little public mass murder is alright when that much money is involved.
It's good, storywise, that Kaiji fails so much while he's simultaneously a genius. It makes him very relatable and it keeps you engaged. The villains are good, too, not simply cartoon villains but are believable in their twisted minds. Realistic?
Good stuff.

The moment he let Hyodo keep his hand inside the box for longer than him while expecting the guy to be unable to counter, that's where he lost. That's the point where he let things slip from his grasp, and yeah, a good deal of that comes down to underestimating Hyodo.
