We may hate work and think work's bad, but have you ever considered what kind of job you'd actually be into should you ever have the opportunity? I was thinking about it and if it didn't conflict with all the other learning goals I have I'd like to try out being a chef and getting an intense course on actually busting my ass to make food for people. Think it'd be the kind of opportunity that'd really help me out in the long run for not just having the ability to perform a job that'll never lose appeal, but also to be capable in making food for myself and not having to go out to eat for a really nice meal.

Sadly I'm already a w*geslave, but if given a choice for an ideal job, I don't have anything specific in mind but I do have criteria
¥ It's just me. no customers, no coworkers, barebones boss overhead (IE boss shows up once a week or something just to see if im alive)
¥ its a simple light physical job, not an office one (not physically tiring unless I get extra into it, can be done both seated and standing for comfort's sake)
¥ Mindless enough that I can just put headphones on and listen to whatever while I do it
¥ if i mess something up, it should be easy to fix
I'm not even really as anti-social as you'd assume after reading this, its just that if I have to work I'd want to do it quietly and not be forced to deal with people. Customers though, fuck that. Fuck that with a bomb.

I don't mean to be as negative as this might sound, it's more just because you said you're new in a different thread, but I would appreciate if we could save using names for situations that more or less demand them. My reasoning being that chatroom type of interaction that occured at the end of the DDLC thread (though I assume it's also because of your different posting style) and which is reminiscent of 4chan generals, something I assume most people would like to get away from on here.

Has Kissu found any interesting stores or picked anything up recently?

If not, I highly recommend you explore your local area! I especially recommend checking out non-chain thrift stores; they often have things you won't find elsewhere because they're not as picked over. If you need to get out of the house, it can also be fun to hit up chain thrift stores -- if you go regularly, you'll eventually come across something unique or rare that catches your interest.

Comic book stores, used bookstores, and foreign retailers are also great places to visit!

If you found something you want to share that you found or purchased online, go ahead!

Ah I'm back, forgot about this.
Well, it's a signed first edition of Gastronomie Pratique by Ali-Bab (Henri Babinski). It's probably the rarest book I own.

File:projector.jpg (486.15 KB,1980x1485)

Had a productive day at the thrift store. Found a Samsung Freestyle projector for $50. It was upside-down and stuck inside the case, so I guess the original owner got it stuck and decided to throw it away... Wasn't charged so I couldn't try it in the store, but got home, plugged in a USB C and it works! But there's a problem -- well, more of an oversight on my part -- I didn't realize it needs a remote, so I tried to pair it with my phone the pairing process says to "click okay on the projector", but the projector itself doesn't have a button to hit okay... So now I need to wait a few days for the remote to come in the mail (´• ω •`)

While at the thrift store I was also able to find a nice deal on a couch. It has a queen-sized pull-out mattress which is something I've been looking for for almost a year of frequenting that store. I have seen lots and lots of furniture move through that store, lots of furniture, but this is the first time I managed to find a pull-out mattress couch, so I had to snatch it up. It was a pain to move, but I think it was worth it... It was just $250.

Looks good. Around here it's not rare to see people giving away furniture, but you need to provide the labor and transport to get it out of their house/apartment which is very much not free or fun. Obviously used furniture is a mixed bag, but as long as you deep clean it I think it's fine.

I think I'm going to try making bread soon. The ingredients are very cheap, but how long does homemade bread last? Could you get nice bags and make it last 2 weeks or so? I'm definitely not someone that wants to cook every day, or even every week.

 No.155040

My sister in law makes sourdough bread quite often and it's amazing. Also the thing is that she just has her starter which she takes care of and feeds every so often with water and bread flour and that's all you need to keep it alive and growing to continuously spit out more and more bread. So if you want to go making bread then you should probably look into cultivating a sourdough starter first, the process can take a little while but supposedly once you have it it's pretty tough to lose it unless you don't take care of and neglect it.

 No.155041

>>155038
I did it for a while at the end of the PAN(パン)demic

I tended to not create enough quantity to last until expiring, because creating the same quantity of bread as you get in the store requires a lot of flour.
I think I made it like every 2 weeks I guess.

Although simple, Tsubasa has some really amazing tracks and the OST plays a great part in my enjoyment of the show. Some tracks, like this one, sound so overly somber and dramatic that one might think it's the BGM of some serious sexual abuse scene or whatever, but they just play during missed goals or characters staring at each other. It does help a lot to sell the tiny bit of brutality that it does have. The more traditional 80s tracks are very fun to listen to, too.
There are sadly only very few officially released tracks, they mostly just released vocal songs and seemingly put some random OST tracks to fill the rest of available space.

Adding to this.
Both anime are good. The original has an atmosphere lost on ultimate, so I'd watch that first. Ultimate spends its first two episodes roughly retreading the original until it's time to move onto a new plot. Kinda like Full Metal Alchemist and Brotherhood. And both should be watched on a CRT or OLED if possible, those true blacks the shows use A LOT of is a whole level of experience you can't get with standard LCD monitors or TVs.

No, but I wouldn't put it past her to collect stuff like that. She's more of a spearfag main.

Complete deadbeats aside, I can't wrap my head around the people who take no thorough interest at least in nutrition, health maintenance, self-defense, street smart psychology, gut feel, and tactics. Do they live in la-la land? Do they really need to get severely ill, beaten up, crippled, traumatized so they would notice their own precious limits and mortality? How am I supposed to take specialists and geniuses seriously when they don't take themselves seriously and get run over by cars, get too drunk for their life to handle, die from stress — things that happen because of zero vested interest in awareness and self-preservation? An author of own life writes themself off, and I'm supposed to manufacture empathy for them? Am I supposed to feel jealous they lived and died not as people, but as scarecrow idols of their own interests?

I think it largely depends on circumstance and necessity for some of those. Everyone should ideally pay attention to nutrition and health, but that can very much be a privilege outside of their reach. It's also difficult for most people to think of potential distant payoffs if they do things like eat healthy. If I eat a carrot today because I read it's good for eye health there's not going to be any proof it ever helped me, even in 30 years of eating them daily. I'll develop an eye issue due to genetics/environment or I won't, we can't just look at our stats like a video game character and say we successfully resisted a disease due to diet.

If you find yourself in situations where self defense or street smarts is needed then you likely don't have the time or money to invest in nutrition. Self-defense stuff can be good exercise and also good for your mental well being, but if you feel that you're in a safe area I think most people don't really want to think about ever needing it. It's one of those "out of sight, out of mind" things.
Ultimately people do the bare minimum of what they think is necessary to survive. It's just our nature to take the path of least resistance.

I do often wonder sometimes how much of the "tfw no gf" stuff is performative and how much is me just differing from the norm. I can understand loneliness from a having nobody to communicate with perspective, and I can understand lust from a wanting to jerk off perspective, but something I think I've never come to understand has been the romantic need perspective. I've considered the prospect of having a partner before and determined it's too much devoting myself to another person for me to want to engage in that aspect of life, and even then for the most part I have hard times envisioning myself with anyone in real life and most of my fantasies have involved some sort of conquest partnership with my waifu. Likewise I'm able to appreciate and enjoy romance anime for what they are and passionately root for and feel happiness about the cute couples in them without feeling any envy or bitterness myself, while I see others all the time talking about how watching those anime opens up a hole of despair in their hearts. All I want out of life is to be able to enjoy myself and appreciate the art and media other people create, with my only real desire being to create some game or story of my own one day.

When I think about this topic, it always reminds me of prior conversations we'd have in the past about failed norms vs true sages. But then there's been plenty of stuff I've seen strewn about the internet about "epidemics" of people without love and how it's a big social issue or whatnot. It's just that not feeling those supposed pangs of desire myself makes it hard to believe this stuff actually exists, or if it does is that big of an issue to people.

In my experience, the vast majority of people who can't get a GF don't really like women to begin with. They never put themselves in situations where they could theoretically initiate a relationship, and when they do, they have nothing but complaints. I honestly think that a lot of them are flat out gay, but never really considered seeking out male companionship.

>>153692
>Also, the primary reason for a relationship is to have kids. Any list of "reasons why I've ascended beyond the need for a gf" that doesn't address this point is completely pointless. Onaholes and meal prep and roombas are great for satisfying your short-term needs, but are those what you want to be surrounded by on your death bed? Is that the legacy you want to want to leave behind?

I can barely use 4chan these days because of all the captcha fuckery. But even when I still lurk it, from time to time, I find the place just as mentally draining as any big social media site. How do people put up with the constant aggro and bickering over whatever the latest big culture war thing is? Don’t they ever get tired of that? Or making every single piece of media fit into some console war style faggotry with another?

It’s honestly begun to stress me out looking at the place more than ever. I don’t get how people are able to stick to this loop every day.
