What were you wearing at home before? Jeans? That's insane.

Forex trading can be exciting but does not seem very comfy.

Perhaps buying silver would be pleasant?

It has been very hot out, and then I remembered fans exist, so I am buying a clip-on desk fan for my office.

Not that poster, but for a couple of years I never wore pants at home at all. Just socks, tshirt, underwear and a morning robe.

I've been learning languages for a good number of years now, now I want to set down a sort of plan to keep learning the languages I've been learning and to add other languages to the mix.
I have to primary languages that I am studying, but there are a number of other languages in which I am interested. I also have a huge number of resources for each of these languages. My intention is to address all these threads and resources in a way that is manageable and doesn't become an overwhelming mess.
The plan is, then, to take a primary coursebook in each of these languages, to read it from start to finish, in order, one chapter per session, and to do all the exercises. This may not necessarily mean I will achieve mastery of all these languages, but I will at least have a structured understanding of them which is often enough for me to be able to claim some competence, or at least a sufficiently good acquaintance with these languages.
I will also keep a log of my learning progress online. I am not going to spam this thread with every update, which I will instead keep in a little blog I have opened elsewhere. If anyone is at all interested, I may post the url here, once I get writing the first few posts.
Soon I should give my first update, let's ganbatte together sushies!

>>22393
Why don't you create a thread for this? Just in case there are other sushis studying the same languages who are looking for resources and stuff?

>>22393
Good luck! You might want to consider contributing to >>2058 in this case, otherwise you risk being lost in noise here.

What is your training routine? I am currently practising interval training with 15-45 min sessions because it's more fun for me that way. I am starting to feel like it's more about clocking in the km rather than about how it's being done. Am I doing something wrong?

This thread was abandoned not long after all these commitments were made, who could have possibly foreseen this outcome?
Anyway. In >>22393 I mentioned wanting to study a few languages by reading through their textbooks sequentially. So far, I've focused only one one language, while the others are kept on hold. This way I can ensure I do work through one text without stretching myself too thin. So far, progress has been consistent.
Now, having learned some amount of a couple differnt languages I stop and think to myself: what other things could I learn this way? I realize that if I had stuck to my intention of practicing with programming for the past 10 years, I would be a pro by now, well, at least, about as competent as I am right now with, say, Chinese (which is not to say a lot but still something at least).
Part of the reason I haven't stuck with programming is because of all the distractions, programming is a huge field and I've tried a lot of different topics inside it.
Still, as they say, the best time to plant a tree was 10 years ago, the second best time is today. Given that I still have some mental bandwidth and intellectual curiosity, I can also start getting more serious with my study of programming, now that I also have a better idea of what it is that I really like. I also choose programming because it seems like it may be a useful skill to develop; on the other hand, I'm not even adjacent to the industry so I can hardly imagine myself getting any use of programming. In my own computer I barely do any of it. Perhaps that may change. And anyway, I would like to be able to make myself one of those "digital nomads" someday, and programming seems like the best way to make a living while on the move.
I have tried writing but just like with programming, I am not even sure I have anything to contribute whatsoever. I would like to make a writing about my language explorations, but I really don't know what I could write about. Does anyone here have any ideas of what kinds of things I could write, about my language learning mostly, but also the different topics I'm interested in, so that it is interesting for people to read?
Thank you for taking your time to read this sushi. Hope you do well in your own projects and goals.

I have made strides in my work. Internet consumption is not down though and I've only memorized two poems. So promising, but not there yet. My language skills have improved a lot though. I'm getting a lot better, but I'm struggling with how much I have to manage.

>This thread was abandoned not long after all these commitments were made
I'm guessing NEETs struggle with scheduling stuff and managing time effectively. I understand the programming problem. I've been there too. Its such a huge field and its hard to make sense of it and stick to it.

Thank you sushis for having given my blogpost the time of day.

Let's play some games

>>19623
like fishing?

Hey, I often have these issues as well. I'm really sorry you're dealing with it right now. It often feels like nothing you do can offer anything other than a distraction. I think it's helpful to remember you aren't morally responsible for these feelings. The best we can do is get lucky to have a few people in our life who accept us for who we are.

Stay free.

I walked up and down a mountain. It was fun.

Why put links on reddit and not here?

>>22471
to warn us to stay away ofc

Please don't take this as hostility OP, but I'm not sure what it is you want to do exactly. Are you going to set up a cytube channel and have a regular stream running? Why di you create a r*ddit board to host links when we could just use this thread? I'm kinda confused.

>>22471
i did both.
>>22473
>cytube
i use something different since with cytube you have to upload the files, i use hyperbeam or caracal.
>Are you going to set up stream
yeah, i stream stuff often and i want multiple places to post these links when i watch stuff.

Lots of anxiety and stress. Despair at the world and society.

is it me?

Sorry for not being a direct reply to your post but this has been something that's been on my mind for several years now. I have several online friends I've known for quite some time, some I even met in real life. But on the back of my mind, the fact that I can't realistically stick my neck out for someone or vice versa gives me doubts about how genuine the relationship actually is. It's not even that they're not the type of person to do it but the physical distance still changes that dynamic to a certain degree. The lack of risk may not matter at the moment, but who knows how that may change in the future. Overall, I do somewhat agree with the sentiment that online friends aren't the same as real friends. But as someone that's been on the other end of a situation where I could've done something for someone I've met online but haven't, still feeling haunted about having never done enough makes me believe that it's real enough to at least not be meaningless. Not that I think that's what you're implying, but something I want to put out there.

>>22337
Yeah I get what you mean, maybe online friends are a type of convenient relationship? It's super easy for them to break as well, if one person is busy and doesn't have time to check online anymore, then that friendship is lost. In this sense, an online relationship only lasts as long as people are willing to put in the bare minimum effort. In contrast, friendships in real-life require more constant upkeep to maintain, but they can maybe be more deeper as a result. I think both types of friendships have their merits though!

>>22422
I'm not sure if convenient is the word I'd use personally but I do think you hit the point I wanted to make. Online friendships don't have the real life aspect to it which gives the individual freedom on how they want to approach any situation they see themselves in. Since relationships are a two way street, this by itself changes how the dynamic develops. As boring as it may come off as, it isn't so much that online friends are better or worse but rather that they're different. But having the right expectations goes further than one might realize so in my opinion it's a good thing to consider.

Have had quite a few net friends, lost touch with most of them because of growing up and the internet in general changing as well. The one I did rekindle contact with somewhat recently things drifted apart again because we made plans to start a kind of intimate relationship which never got realized because long distance stuff is hard to plan and expensive. Hard to go back to just being friends, pretend we never made those plans, and she didnt stay single so we cant revive those plans either.
