for when you can't decide if you want an open sandwich or regular sandwich.

Dear Diary,

It rained today and never really stopped. Also the buses came late today twice in a consecutive days.

I hate the wet…

you’re doing fine just stop saying “u” instead of “you” it‘s very irritating.

Terrible week at work; issues and problems all the time. Argh.

Today when parking my car I managed to drive 5 cm into an unmarked driveway with 50cm tall grass. What I did not expect after returning from work was the owner running towards me calling me a stupid useless roll while waving an axe around because he was chopping wood to start a fire.

Ended up driving away. It's never a good idea to engage in violence with bare hands against somebody with an axe.

>>17889
That doesn't make sense.
Then again I stopped trying to make sense of people's behaviour a while back.

Peace in our time.

I love these two pics. I should try grabbing some of my favorite photos and draw on them like you do :)

What is even happening?

OP is doing long division to calculate 67/4. At the top you write how many times 4 goes into a certain place value (multiple of 10).

67 = 40 + 24 + 2.8 + 0.2, but OP forgot to separate the last two.

The three is actually to be divided by the 4 as well, where 3/4 is .75 (or if you like, 75% of a 1)

Oh, now i get it; thanks.

I can't math today; too hungry for pie.

It's oil! It's wheat! It's soil! It's meat!
It's beef!

Russia has a lot of oil too…

no john, you are the computer

Used to be a solid 8+ hours a day, but I've switched to my phone as my depression got worse, so I spend maybe 0-4 a day, mostly 0

from the time i wake up until i fall asleep.

a lot

i'm pretty much never not on the computer. Even to fall asleep I leave some youtube video playing so i'm even on the computer when I'm sleeping.

Hello fellow traveller :3

I've been doing the same journey as you but most of the imageboards I've found are unfortunately dead -_- I prefer the slower nature of forums to discords/ircs so I'm motivated to find (and hopefully contribute) to a good community

Hope you find somewhere you like :D

>any sushi lore?
There used to be a >>>/wildcard/ board. Almost no one posted in it, but the idea was really fun.

>>18681
Yeah, it sucks. I want my sushifriends back.

Discord has the same (and more) functionality as imageboards. It also has a lot of bells and whistles to keep people coming back, plus there's considerable social pressure to have a discord account in the first place, so if you have an account anyway, why not join the server? Discord alo encourages more activity since it's an informal chat experience where you can quickly clarify and rephrase what you said, whereas on imageboards you have to think more carefully before you hit reply. The major difference, though, is that discord requires an account and isn't sushi rollymous, but one of the biggest blackpills to me is that no one cares about this, which sucks.

I think a lot of people, not just on imageboards, have been asleep at the wheel with discord. They mentally classify it as an IRC substitute and don't see it as a competitor to forums, even though it absolutely is. This is how you end up with a situation like what's happening with shogi at the moment, where almost the entire western playerbase is contained in one discord server, leaving people who don't want to use discord (like me) essentially in the dark concerning all modern theory and professional news.

>>18683
I'm a big fan of the Wizardchan model. Oversimplifying a little, but they essentially started with one random board and then added new boards based on activity/interest. I think this is a good way to grow smaller boards organically and (potentially) end up with a more unique board configuration, instead of the usual small imageboard admin move of creating a bunch of generic hobby boards at the outset that no one posts in.

>>18693
Be aware that a lot of "dead" imageboards can spring to life if you just start a new thread! Many boards that don't seem to get many posts still have a lot of visitors, it's just that everyone is waiPost too long. Click here to view the full text.

Yes, there are. But I wouldn't say that the activity levels are all that different. A bunch of people greeting each other every day and small talk isn't comparable to the same number of long thought-out posts and microblogs.

On a technical note, yes. The dreaded gamer Slack actually allows you to change your mind, wipe your post easily, edit it and rephrase yourself. It strikes a balance between regular IRC chat (a fast mind-stream of thoughts) and your regular forum consisting of thought out essays.

>situation like what's happening with shogi at the moment, where almost the entire western playerbase is contained in one [guild]
Indeed. And there is the point. A single board, be it a website or on a webring, is an independent platform. Separated and isolated. And while that is awesome in some regards, it drives the majority of users away. They don't want a place to argue about shogi, to share shogi information; they want to meet humans who are into shogi while feeling like they are learning about shogi. And the product allows you to talk about shogi, sure. But it also allows you to form connections with humans. Without needing separate chats / stream events, like most boards historically did. Said product also (believe me or not) gives you much more control over your new-formed connections with others.

You do not feel like you are talking to users of a particular platform. You feel like you are talking to users of the greater network, in this sense the shogi guild becomes more of a hub than a forum. You 'can' talk to people from the platform and take them "home", even collect them on a platform of your own, at no additional cost to either side.

If your platform sucks because the admin hasn't updated vichan in 6 years or because it's suddenly infested with jailbait picture spam, you aren't forced to leave and lose everybody you met on there. You don't need to pay a domain and a server and a moderation team suddenly. You can very easily move. And have BOTH the freedom and fun of sushi rollymous communication and the community of awesPost too long. Click here to view the full text.

Discord isn't rollymous; it's pseudonymous. This leads to a totally different culture, because everything is tied to an identity. It doesn't have to be the same as real life, but every account is going to have a persona associated with it. If I were to make a real life comparison, I'd say that Discord is the internet equivalent of going to a pub or hobby group meetup. It leads to the same experiences - forming bonds with other people, splitting off into subgroups, gossiping about other members, etc.

In contrast, image boards do provide a true rollymous experience most of the time. There may be some tripfriends who try to establish an identity, but outside of that you can only guess who was behind the posts. I would compare the imageboard experience to be closer to a masquerade. The problem is that there's no one to check invitations at the door, so too many problem makers get in to post illegal content, push political agendas, push commercial products, etc.

Canna indica is a flowering plant that grows out of big bulb-like roots called "rhizomes". The plants get quite large for something that dies off and regrows every year. The pictured ones are about 3 ft tall. Normally it flowers closer to July, but I guess the warm spring let it get started earlier than usual this year.

In some parts of South America, the Canna is cultivated as a food product. The rhizomes are starchy and can be cooked and eaten directly, or processed into a flour similar to arrowroot.

Got a place with good public transport. YES!
