Now that it's getting into fall and we're reaching the end of the year, I have something I want to say. This year was especially hard on me, a lot of bad stuff happened, but chatting with you sushis has been a bright spot in a dark year. I love you guys and the community we have here, and I had a lot of fun lurking the boards and watching the streams and hanging out and so on.

With that out of the way, did you sushis do anything this summer? Have some sort of vacation, try something new, or make a change in your life? Even if you didn't do anything special, what kind of things did you get up to?

i love you sushis! august and september were pretty bad for me so i posted and lurked here a lot. it helped me feel less lonely after a breakup

my first year at college ended for me late july and i'm unable to continue, so it's just been hard getting used to not having a routine and seeing people everyday. summer was pretty fun for the most part before that. i saw my friends a lot despite us being busy with school.

where i live we only have wet and dry seasons so i wish to experience fall someday! i can only simulate it with pumpkin flavored foods and watching horror movies. those with the privilege of experiencing fall dont take it for granted i would kill to be you.

It's been an atrocious summer in one of the worst years of my life. The jury is still out on whether or not this is the worst year of my life so far, as I haven't even had the time to sit down and think about it.

I live on my own too, which means I have chores and errands as well. This also means I have to feed myself too. Working is also something I do, the same goes for exercising.
A typical day is to work 9 hours, sleep 9 hours commute to work and back for 1 hour and use the other 5 to play video games, watch anime and lurk on image boards. Now and then an errand or a chore needs to be done, twice a week exercising is due and everyday something edible has to be created. On weekends, holidays and vacation the 9 hours of work are being added to video games, anime and lurking.

Living in deep frustration. I should have been in part-time paradise starting in August, but having to "tie up loose ends" has extended this agony up to late-October. When I get home, looking at my schedule is enough to feed a flame of demoralization within me and I submit to inertia. There's so much I want and must do, but bullshit work is getting in the way of the pursuit of my real goals. Barely clinging to the gains I secured before this ordeal began is the most I can manage.

I am way overdue replying to the following posts. Somehow I always miss direct replies to me, even though I make sure I check. My apologies.

This is a whole article for the "Social Media" portion of my webpage. I still feel like my webpage has too many negative-toned entries for me to be adding the kind of venomous sludge that the social media section will contain, so I still haven't published it.

Don't be afraid to let your reader's imagination and/or autism spectrum disorder do the work for you! You can get way more flavor out of mere voice than you can imagery so why not let the reader have some fun with the details? There's only so many things that you can compare weak legs to but there's all kinds of different people who could try to describe the same thing:

Large words usually have more specific connotations than smaller ones. They demand and create specific contexts to be used. "Big" and "large" almost always work, but "gargantuan" means something specific, and sometimes you don't want specific. In fact, unless you specifically want specificity, you probably don't need it.

One reason I left the Patent Office was that while there were a lot of good people there, it did attract its share of weirdos. I could go on for pages, but this one weirdo is the case-in-point.

Today, he would be called an incel or gamer or geek. He was a 30-something male, overweight and unkempt, who was lazy and didn't do his job and blamed everyone else for his woes. You know, your average computer geek male in 2022. He was fat, he was slovenly, and one habit in particular drove me nuts.

He would go down to the basement mall in Crystal City and buy these "big gulp" soda-pops in plastic cups. You get to keep the cup! And he did. He would gulp this soda and then have a burping contest. I am not kidding about this. He would belch, loudly, and actually open the door to his office and lean out into the hallway so it would echo throughout the floor. And I am not talking about a small burp, but these long, drawn-out, "Burrrraaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaap! kind of things.

Gross. But it got worse.

He kept the cups in his office - unwashed - and stacked them up in the corner. As a result, we had an infestation of cockroaches in the office, and that was gross, too. I mentioned this to my boss and since the guy was in another Art Unit, there was nothing to be done, as his supervisor (who was also slovenly and stupid) didn't see it as a problem but thought it was "funny" and that I needed to "lighten up."

Of course, the guy was mortgaging cases - he was a lazy slob, so he would pretend to examine cases to meet his quota and avoid being fired (he was always 1% above the level of production needed to keep his job). And eventually it was discovered that, gee-whiz, whaddya know? He's a scumbag!

Interesting thing that. I read all the time online about people being harassed and bullied at work, and supervisors and managers who defend the bullies and harassers. Later on, they find out the miscreants were stealing from the company. Maybe when someone complains about boorish behavior in the workplace, you should pay attention. The guy harassing the secretary isn't just a "jerk" or being "inappropriate" - he probably isn't doing his job, either. When you have enough time in the day to stir the pot, chances are, you don't have enough to do. Just fire people like that - if they feel so entitled they can get away with whatever they want - and you let them - they will probably be your downfall.

I'm trying to find this one japanese artist who made these really trippy/psychedelic animation. The person had a whole youtube full of these animations, the style was either 3d or hand drawn sketchbook looking things. It was all anime girls too. And very colorful. It was a really obscure channel a person sent me once so its hard to find and i don't have their dms anymore.

i think their username had something potato or dog in their name but i could be wrong

they also had a website where they sold dvds of their animations for really cheap

i think some of their animations had touhou characters too. But it was mostly original characters i think.

There was also a deviantart page too where the person posted their drawings. i think they had a cyborg character they drew often.

i hope you guys know what or who im talking about, i'll appreciate the help!

I think I might lean more towards Orchid or Grey, but several of my partners in the past have gotten bored of me for that reason. So now I'm kind of just trying to get laid. I think what I want most in a relationship is to be able to touch my partner (e.g. kissing, hugging, sleeping together, not necessarily sex), and sex is an easy way to get those things. So I'm alright with just hooking up to get those things, since I don't think my chances of being in a long-term relationship again are very good at this point. Each relationship I have is shorter than the last, my last one lasted a week. So I just don't even feel like trying anymore, I just need to get laid so I can touch a human being.

I don't interact with people in the flesh and blood world so 2/3rds of the chart is meaningless to me. As for orientation it would be easy to say I'm bisexual but that is not exactly true. Almost all of my fantasies and the pornography I consume are fetishistic in nature, and I would say everything gay is just a fetish for me, an extra layer of taboo to excite me.

I just happened to be reading a little bit of Philosophy in the Bedroom by Marquis de Sade and I immediately related to the characters. It feels good to know I am not completely alone in my sexual proclivities. Occasionally, I will meet someone online with a similar disposition to mine, but this is rare even when I go looking around in fetish communities. I really wish I had a libertine wife but it will never happen and it eats away at me from the inside.

I moved from a not so big but very modern city to the countryside some years ago to do medicine college. In the end I didn't like it, but there were some important developments on my life and learning to live by my own in a house with strangers was valuable, but holy fuck what annoying deceptive people, it gets worse that at the countryside people think they have to take care of your life. It got lonely that everybody valuable was far away and controlling strangers were near, but the freedom was good, with time i learned to not care about the countryside silly social customs.
Living on your own is good to understand your own agency over your life. It's always good to take hobbies that will help you decorate your place and fill it with things that make you happy. I made the mistake of living on a plain white no personality undecorated room for 3 years, because I had to manage money tightly. Nowadays I live with this agency i learned there, but at rooms family lend me while I don't finish my college course.

Hell yeah. I'd like to try grow large sunflowers at some point for the seeds but there's nowhere really good to put them for us. We can get strong winds over summer and everywhere sheltered I usually have taken up by plants I value more like determinate tomatoes and peppers.

Currently winter here in the southern hemisphere, pretty far south so can get some frosts. Our family set up a small greenhouse last spring or so though which I have a fair bit growing in - from the first pic going clockwise from bottom left have -
~ a couple trays of old spinach plants which have been going since late summer (and some oxalis mixed in which is the red colour - a weed but still edible)
~ minutina (looks like grass)
~ lamb's lettuce
~ red variety of mizuna in the middle
~ few ~30L pots in top right containing broccoli with perpetual/regular spinach surrounding
~ some garlic chives in the 2 square green pots (planted these in autumn which don't think is the right time, but they're surviving and seem to be slow growing anyway so will see how they go)
~ beans/peas in the pots with the mesh (there's about 8 or so of those pots in total but most aren't shown in the pics)
With the beans/peas grew them using that style of mesh last year OK, although the pot circumference was larger (30L pot vs 15L pot). They'll probably get all tangled up in the middle eventually as just have the plants in a circle around the outside of the pot, but I'll just see how they end up being with pests/harvesting in early spring.

Apologies for potato quality of pics, currently travelling around so these pics are just what my mum sent me recently by txt message so they're super compressed.

I assume you would be based in the subtropics? There's a lot of stuff like tamarillos and watermelons that would be cool to grow which aren't really feasible down here due to the climate.

Basic leafy greens like lettuce and spinach are super easy to grow, along with tomatoes, strawberries and a number of other things. I would just give it a shot, look up basic how to grow guide online about 1 or 2 different plants you like and would actually eat, try grow them, watch what happens and learn from it.

When you first start out you'll make a bunch of mistakes and there will be issues (e.g. planting at the wrong time of year, pests getting out of control, plants not laid out sensibly e.g. containers too small, plants too dense, etc.) but the more you do it the better you'll understand how whatever plant grows and the challenges associated with your local environment.

Once you've got a hang of 1 or 2 plants you can try other things, or you could initially try growing things e.g. over spring-summer (like peppers and tomatoes) and then later on when the climate is no longer appropriate grow something different e.g. over autumn-winter (like broccoli, cabbage).

There's a lot of good channels on youtube as well for this type of stuff, that's where most of my knowledge comes from (I've only been actively growing things for 3-4 years really).

Channels like Epic Gardening, Self Sufficient Me, Huw Richards, TheKiwiGrower are all really good. Mostly just watch them for entertainment but I end up learning a fair bit regardless.
