It's not mature, but I can't help and laugh at endocrine history. For a while testicle transplants were seen as a cure all for diseases, so sentences like "Because of the lack of human testicles he looked to monkeys" and "He chose to use goats as donors instead of monkeys because they were more abundant in Kansas"

For those curios the transplants were pure quackery and the body just destroys and foreign animal cell that gets into it, these surgery took place before imuniosuprecents existed.

Thinking about my online friend again. I dunno if they're a girl or a guy, but recent habits and in-general events I picked up from them probably makes me think they're the former. And… they're just so sweet to me. Even when they're super busy to even so much as talk, I can tell they're trying, and they flat-out admitted that they love being around me, in an indirect sort of way.
I mean, I'd offer to meet up IRL or even get to see the IRL them, but that really can't happen for several reasons, the main one being that last time they did show anything IRL to someone, once they split up, they apparently started posting their pics with some pretty dark captions.
But… to bring it back to being comfy, to be honest, I really don't care who they are. I mean sure if they're a guy that drops me wanting to be an actual boyfriend to 0, but we can still definitely be tight-knit friends, and, hell, I'd have an easier time introducing him to my other friends were that the case.
Probably posted this like several months ago here, maybe, or somewhere else, but still man.

It's an interesting situation you're in. I wish I had any good advice for you, but I really don't. I guess I would say that, if you guys are good enough friends, I wouldn't be afraid of asking for IRL meetings or confirmations of gender or intention if that's what you really want. Honesty is the best policy after all. If they decline then it is what is I suppose, and you have to resign yourself to just being internet pals, at least for the time being.

 No.11517

>>11516
Yeah, that's… pretty much what I'm figuring on, too. We're good friends, but we're only good online friends – probably the same status the ex-friend had before he got ditched. So, I would not blame my friend if they were suspecting me of doing the same thing. At some point in time I have to ask them if they really are a girl, but like, I'd have to wait for a proper opportunity. Almost never do any sort of discussions between us happen that could lead up to me asking that question and have it not be awkward.
Still, though, thanks for helping me reflect.

I wonder if a sci-fi story based on medical biopunk exists. I'm diabetic and I also browse random chronic condition forums; what I've discovered is that every condition has its own history of using their medical devices and pills in ways against what their doctor recommends, be it aesthetic difference to down right dangerous. For diabetics it's injecting insulin into the muscle, a way to get ultra fast acting insulin in exchange for a less stable dose, and hacking pumps; For those in wheel chairs it's modifying their chairs wheels and engines; For epilepsy it's trying illegal drugs to try and cure their condition. To add on people without chronic conditions can use medications made for those with them, body builders us diabetes medication and people get high off of aderal. If you put a sci-fi spin on these ideas you could most likely make a somewhat interesting idea.
I would also wonder what disability technology looks like in the future. What a CGM/closed loop, a 'fake pancreas' that tracks blood sugar and gives insulin for a diabetic automatically, might work like once AI technology becomes possible. What a seizure dog would be like once genetic engineering or mechanics becomes strong enough. Would people with osteogenis imperfecta, bone fragility, get robot suit covered by medicare? Will they try to modify said suits?

I don't know much about sci-fi so I don't know if this exists. All I can do is google scholar "disabilities and sci-fi". Anytime something like this does come up it's often a side not for their back story (ex: he was disabled in a car crash, but now he has a robot body. )

I'm somewhat irritated now because when ever I try to search cyberpunk online cyberpunk 2077 comes up. It was bad enough when the synth playlists took over, but cyberpunk 2077 has the added con of attaching it's self to all cyberpunk concepts so it'll come up even when you google ideas.
Somewhat related, but I think cyberpunk 2077 will be the nail that killed cyberpunk. The genre had a strong start as a response to the cultural zeitgeist of its age, but as the decades went on cyberpunk never responded to new zeitgeists and simply became self referential. This led to cyberpunks aesthetics taking over, Neon lights, place vs place: japan, robot arm because robot arm is cyberpunk, leaving any philosophical commentary, besides big corporations bad, in the dust. As of now something advertised cyberpunk is comodified rebellion at worst and at best a campy ramp. Some good cyberpunk works exist, but they are rare in a genre thats becoming overtaken by "neon Tokyo= cyberpunk". Cyberpunk 2077 accelerations this downfall by taking the worst traits of cyberpunk and existing as it's most popular work, people think of it as cyberpunk and people see it when they search cyberpunk now.
In the end I wonder what comes next. Will cyberpunk stay in this culture that loves nostalgic kitsch or will it be usurped by a new "-punk" or scifi that responds to this cultures zeitgeist. As of now solorpunk seems somewhat popular, but all I've seen of it is "Wow that looks cool" and not actual works on it. I think internet cyberpunk will become popular because it's the current cultural obsession. The main thing stopping it is most people don't know how to make theoretical internet conversations into full entertaining stories. Personal bias, but I want biopunk to be the next thing

I just got back today after taking a break from imageboards for a year. Actually, I wanted to do it for three years, but I have not had as much fun as I normally do when I take long breaks from imageboards. I never even sat down to think about what I wanted to accomplish and I kind of cheated in the sense that I would sometimes check the 4chan archives for people to email. It was a weird liminal experience that I do not wish to repeat, although it was not all bad. I think I will just catch up with things here over the summer and try again with a better plan come Autumn.

Since this is random thoughts…
The evolution of the word "based" fascinates me. Originally meant to say "I agree" with rebellious denotations on imageboards. For example Kevin saying the sky is blue is not based (excluding modern contexts), but him saying a perceived controversial opinion is. To be based is to not just be right, but to be martyrdom of rightness who uses logic or harsh truths to rise above the sheeple. The term lost the specific, along with rather pompous, meaning and soon became a general catch all for "I think this is good". No longer did you have to have a point, but simply be aestheticaly beautiful. The term started getting mocked at this point because it was obviously being used by people who lacked the intelligence to articulate why they used the term. At best it was people who couldn't explain why a work resonated with them, but at worst it was people who lacked any critical thought besides recognizing they symbols of "my side". I can't forgive the former though because it often leads to the latter and is caused by obsessive internet use that replaces any hobbies that can teach someone to articulate. This trend started on late imageboards, before it was less common not uneard of to spam the word, but gained full steam on popular SM which infected imageboard culture, like a feed back loop. No longer did big SM sites cooy content from big imageboards, but they also produced content that would ve posted there. A wojack a popular imageboard could have equally originated on 4chan or Twitter. The current stage of the word fully embraces the IB SM feed back loop and is in a state of extreme irony. Something so wrong it's funny is based, something extreme of what you believe in is based, everything is based. Based has consumed any need to articulate both something you agree or disagree with. The user has lost any ability to feel sublime emotions and instead engages with media on a shallow basis

I wouldn't find it odd if an internet user could only respond with based to any emotional stimulus in the future

Speaking of, in my quest to get friends IRL, it seems to my dismay that they're not weebs. In fact I didn't come across many people that were weebs as of late, someone bullied me for using a tengu picture to end my stream last week, and all these people that I befriend IRL seem to be into trendy stuff like Call of Duty. I still can't believe people talk about it. This just makes me believe that a lot of westerners really don't have taste.

 No.11567

Yeah, that's exactly it. I remember all the earliest examples of "based" being used were in the form of "Thank you based X." IIRC, it was used that way for a while before I'd ever heard anyone say that something "is based." I'm pretty sure what >>11558 claims is the "original" usage was already a heavy mutation of its actual original usage.

 No.11572

Yeah, I also had a moment of depressing realisation that cyberpunk is dried up and shrivelled. It was a few months ago when I saw song related. The YouTube algorithm thought it was perfect for me, but, in a way, it was too perfect. It was almost as if a neural network had generated the song based on other cyberpunk media I had watched, but only managed to recycle loads of clichés in five minutes…city strung with cables…life pulsing through the wires…I saw your neon reflection in the infinite plate glass sea of the EvilCorp skyscraper…blah blah blah

Don't get me wrong, I love cyberpunk, but the aesthetic now feels so narrowly defined that it's hard to be original with it. Another problem is that everyday reality is now damp with dystopian elements of the genre. Mass surveillance has been tolerated for years. The line between the real world and virtual worlds is blurring as we spend more and more time on computers. Inequality between those who benefit from technology and those who are made redundant by it is stark. Eventually, real life will be only superficially distinguishable from cyberpunk dreamscapes. At that point, the genre won't be shocking any more, and it will die.

Super long, think years long, "to do.." lists, to read, to listen, to watch, on hobby sites are often never actually finished. This unfinished nature makes them less lists recording what the user plans to do, but more a time stamp of their desires. Looking back on my to read list I wont finish half the books I put on because I wanted to read them when I was a different person. I recently cleaned my goodreads lists, I had a max 200 to reads and I needed to clean room before I hit the limit, and about 7-10 books I no longer wanted to read because I wasn't interested in the topic anymore.
I also wonder how much of my to reads list is redundant. I read two "intro into body studies" books and they overlapped a bit, but it wasn't *unbearable* since intro books are so broad they can't really overlap. The more niche books I'm more worried about. I have 5-6 different books on body mods, cultural history and reaction to obesity, and freak shows. I feel once I get 2-3 books into a topic the other books will be redundant.
On a positive not I've read enough body studies I get what works/ideas body studies texts reference. the con is that some of the references are trite. You really can't have a book on the cultural history of obesity without mentioning William Banting and you can't do body studies without using Foucalts biopower. Another problem is only know the works from second hand sources and I gotta know them first hand, so those references are reminders of my ever growing to read.

I gave shoddy advice to someone with lumbar pain caused by lifting something too heavy at work. I didn't have access to more data but the pain he described made me rule out a hernia, although not with 100% certainty. He got an IV, medicine to take home, his boss was considerate enough to give him days off until monday to recuperate, and I had him buy a lumbar support that was probably too big a hit on this man's wallet, since he definitely looked working-class (or maybe his work clothes and his honest tone and straight-forward gaze made it feel that way). I'm afraid he went and got it out of fear of things getting worse and I made no bigger effort to make him think it through outside telling him the price range and that it's not a purchase to make lightly. It's eating me up from the inside because I know how life-changing these injuries can be, how early proper care is essential in preventing the condition from worsening and I worry I didn't provide proper advice. I should have spent more time on him. The lumbar support at least will help him but there's conflicting evidence on whether he should lie down with his back straight or maintaining the curve of his lower back and I told him to keep his back straight. All this and I forgot about the simple use of a warm water bag. What a failure.

But maybe if you listed the genres you're currently into, sushis could suggest others which you haven't tried before?

Also, maybe there are genres which you have listened to but which you dismissed. It's worth going back to those. This happened to me when I first started hearing trap around me - I didn't like it initially, and it took years before I re-discovered it and found the groove.

I always wondered whats a highly realistic version of "word history without religion" would look like because those stories are always written by athiest or hard core christians who under value or over value what religion did. Also a lot of Christianity effects aren't blatantly obvious things. One example is in the book "Fat: the history of stuff". In it Christianity was one of the big factors that shifted fat from being positive to negative because they believed in asceticis and "body over mind". Obesity was physical proof someone wasn't living a chaste life and gave into their earthly desires. If Christianity didn't exist fatness negative view would never exist or would form into somthing different. Which is just weird to think of

It raises the question of how far we would need to expunge "religious practices" from history. Are shamans allowed to exist in this alternative universe? What about rites which have mundane functions but are imbued with religious significance, such as burying or cremating the dead?

>If Christianity didn't exist fatness negative view would never exist

Well…medical science predates Christianity (e.g. Hippocrates) and I don't see how the lack of religion would prevent its development. Surely medicine would have found out eventually that being fat can make you ill and raises your risk of disease.

The main point that leads me to this is that in order to get the "crazy internet user" meme you have to use the internet 1. more that the average person and 2. always search for the crazy sides of the internet. Contrary to most discussions online you have to work hard to find the "weird" sides of most mainstream websites and if you constantly see them the algorithms know you'll get outraged and interact. What the average person thinks of an internet controversy is somethinv so big a MSM channel picks it up. While people do see internet oddities without trying to if you see them so much you get memes in it it you might be online to much. Heck by even knowing about the meme I spend to much time on the internet, even though I'm trying to stop. If this is so the average person who gets the neck beard meme is no better, expresses their neckbeardism differently, or had the potential of becoming a neckbeard.
The meme actually worked for a while because it helped name and get rid of the people who embodied it, but now its lost its edge and instead is being used to project issues. As of now the neckbeard meme is a way of suppressing the reflection on the shadow through projection because "even though I'm a loser, I'm not that much of a loser" or "only they have those traits". You can see this when site A says site B is full of neckbeards and vice versa. Also a personal problem the parody memes of sites syre getting trite because they're now based off of "x said this about x site" instead of the users experience on said site. The meme has become old and useless now

Ironic weeb refers to someone who is a poser. Weeaboos are just weeaboos without thinking, but an ironic weeb acts like a weeaboo while exclusively watching popular anime or none at all.

I’m also a zoomer. I think our relationship as a cohort with the internet is more varied than pretty much any other age group. One aspect is that internet penetration progressed at different rates in different countries. Another is that some of us started using the internet as active participants way earlier than others. My siblings are just a few years younger than me, but despite all of us being of Generation Z, the 2000’s Internet (i.e. those YTPs and abridged series) was a part of my life where it was not at all for my family and even some of my friends. There is definitely commonality within Gen Z though.

I feel like anyone who rates themselves a 6 is trying to come off as humble/modest but is also quietly stating they are above average (better looking than most).

I'd rate myself a 6, mostly because I know I have some good features, but combined with the rest of my appearance and the amount of skincare I need to just look "normal", I consider myself just about average.

It also depends on what you consider an average score. In my mind, a score of 5 would be less than average, and 6-7 would be average. I don't know why I'm biased like that, though.

Fanservice is rubbing me off for some reason. It's not that I dislike tits, but it just seems like a bandaid fix to an anime being uninteresting or uneventful. I try to downplay it and not pay much attention to it since I don't care a lot about it, but it eventually appears when you see people talking about the show. Sometimes it even happens that the mangaka was a horny fuck.

this is sorta exactly what I'm talking about, people explain themselves as why they're a 6 but like talking themselves down but they're really talking themselves up. 5 is the normal looking people number, its silently agreed upon because its the middle number.

If you believe yourself to be a 6 then call yourself a 5, people will either agree or correct you. Why would it change anything for you to call yourself a 5 when you know you aren't? By saying you're a 6 then you are immediately placing yourself above the norm but only by the smallest increase of a single integer in the attractiveness meter based off of a 1 to 10 scale as to not look too narcissistic for lack of a better word.

Perhaps those who don't call themselves a 5 are afraid to realize they are in fact just average looking and not as attractive as they lead themselves to believe - myself included.

 No.11929

>>11928
That's a lot of of assumptions into someone's thought process. If you're inquiring about someone's perceived attractiveness, of course they're going to compare themselves to the standards of an attractive person (8 to 10), and explain why they're rating themselves below that.

Cute fortune teller roll

*Shuffle, shuffle*
Alright roll, from your post ID >>11996 I've chosen 3 cards from my deck: 11, 21 (99%78) and 6.

Your future as it is now is given by card 11, the 8 of Cups. It indicates introspection and being less involved in the world. Not necessarily the negative connotations of isolation or going hiki, but I think being drawn inside ourselves is something all us imageboard users face from time to time.

But then, let's see what hidden influence is guiding that outcome. Yours is given by card 21, the Two of Cups. It represents relationships, but also connection with others in general. That's the opposite of the first card, so there might be tension here. Especially since both these cards are Cups. This suite is generally about emotions, so I'd say its important for you to examine what feelings guide both your sense of internal self and how you interact with others. And maybe even how the two are connected?

The last card relates to a potentially different future, one that comes from understanding your hidden influence. Its card 6, the Hanged Man. Usually it means a lack of movement, but in this context, I think its waiting for the right moment to readjust and improve. Relating to what the previous cards said, it might be that being patient with your feelings can result in new social growth.

I hope that's okay, fren? I'm still very much a beginner at this. But I wish you luck, no matter what happens.

Interesting! I can certainly draw some parallels with those two futures to my current life. I've indeed been less social or involved than usual regarding my friends and family this year, and certainly you could say relationships of many kinds are the cause of that. At the same time I've been struggling to fill my time in a way that feels rewarding when alone at home.

You know, generally I'm of the opinion that fortune telling and such things only work because they're vague enough to apply to nearly anybody, but perhaps the true value of such things is letting you think about your own life through a unique lens.

I'm getting to meet an aquaintance just the two of us for the first time in just a couple of days, quite excited about it.
We've "known" eachother a while, must be at least 1-2 years by now. Though we haven't met often, always felt chill vibes from her when we did. She even dragged me out to some meditation over-the-day retreat once. She's a bit dangerously cute, but as of yet I don't have a problematic crush or such, even though she's def. way inside my taste in women.

Been ages since I got to know somebody new, just been hanging with the same three peeps for years mostly. Really hope this turns out to be something recurring, but also need to keep my chill so I don't scare her away. So easy to get too hype too fast because as a semi-hermit all social stuff means so much more to me than to the other party every time, when they have so much larger & active social lives.

Gonna try to focus on just appreciating the moments I get with her, so that I don't waste it if we don't meet again soon. Hope I get to hug her, it's been too long since I had a good one, hugging dudes is just not the same.

Only bad thing about it is I gotta clean a buttload, my place is in total chaos. But also good in a way cause I've been lazy about it, finally have a reason/motivator to get it done at least partially.

I've gotten into a mess with a group of people online and it has messed up my 2021 so far.
It started when I joined this Discord server. Then they started following me around wherever I go online, psychoanalysed my shitposts and generally treated me like shit. They posted their "findings" on a 4channel board and at my lowest point I couldn't do anything other than furiously monitoring that board for hours to see what kind of things they had come up with, whether it's insults or their general opinion about things that I've said.
I'm pretty sensitive but I am really good at hiding it. I've told them to leave me alone because it's ruining me, but they retorted and said that I could leave whenever I want. I couldn't just ignore them because… I don't know. It's a complicated feeling. But whatever it is, I think I've had enough and they've had their fun analysing me too (otherwise why would they go on for MONTHS doing this???). I think the weird feeling is mostly gone for now and they've found a new toy to be played with.

The fear of organ trafficking is both real and fake. The fake part is that they'll take your organs while your alive thats just media hoodoo.

> And delete Discord, nothing good comes from that platform.
It is unfortunate that more and more small game developers are using Discord rather than IRC. I don't have the program installed, but I end up using the service a lot since games that I play/make content for are rooted in Discord. Fortunately, small game devs tend to be mild and not prone to causing trouble.

Do you think Nestle will respond to it's criticism or just ignore it? I say this because "fuck nestle" culture isn't new in the 70's to 80's they were mass striked, for tricking african mothers into thinking powdered milk was better, which they responded by making fake watchdog orgs for their company staffed by old workers, infiltrating their opponents meetings, and vowing to reform by "following" UN rules. This worked and all this strikes were dropped along with the pr team thet helped them, pagan international, became famous in the business world. The new digital anti-nestle movement has got zero response from nestle besides being 10 times as bigger and critical. If you want to be positive (?) it could because they're insidiously working behind the scenes to stop them, but if you want to be negative 'fuck nestle' is just internet spectacle that wont result in protest that hurts them, the modern movement has had no big strike, and nestle owns to many child companies to strike. Kind of sad because the internet movement is always acting like it's one month from winning

I doubt much of anything will happen. Internet campaigns like that almost never result in change, no matter what they're fighting for.

Does anyone else remember the 90's subculture of self published books telling you how to do illegal things. From the legally grey, how to dumpster dive, to flat out illegal, make your own gun/grenade/poisons, they were everywhere in punk and anti-gov groups. The subculture died when the groups died off and the government cracked down on them when they realized what a threat the books were.
I'm surprised a new subculture hasn't evolved online because in the 2000's-2010's if you had a vpn/tor the rules were so lax you could post how to make anthrax without any legal repercussions. Even now skeevy parts of the internet could make guides. Even stuff normal people would be into, how to make dmt, isn't that popular.

For a long time, I was wary of buying toys, figures, merchandise, or other things for myself. I had a bad impression of the practice due to extreme, obsessive examples online, Instances where people would blow their entire income on collectables, have walls covered with sealed toys, putting things like Funko Pops everywhere, having explicit statues and/or tapestries, etc. I didn't really feel secure indulging in that sort of thing.
I recently started letting myself enjoy some merch in the form of larger sized (50cm and up) plush dolls. Being able to 'hold' a familiar character has been soothing for me. It even settled my picture collecting tendencies, and obsessive preoccupation with certain characters. It makes me understand more why merchandise is popular, though I doubt I'll be inclined to collect nearly as much as others. I'm not going to be jumping in to dakis or openly displaying explicit decore either, that kind of thing just isn't for me.

Mr.Pickles is funny, but it kind of sucks the whole satanist theme wasn't more fleshed out. The only thing the show only really knows about satanism is the pentagram and 666. The more bizarre moments when they combine unrelated movements with satanism, bdsm and metal get the worst half of this.

I remember it because it lead to one of the weirdest wikipedia sources ever.
I feel so-so on the disease its self because it feels like something someone just made up. All previous studies on 'sleep procrastination' relate to people not sleeping due to self control issues and not regaining freedom. Very little literature, or even online mention!, existed before this tweet and yet now people are treating it like a real 'medical' thing. Two small details is that it might be a culturally bound syndrome, like Taijin Kyofusho or Dhat Syndrome, because Chinese work expectations are nothing like western ones and it gives a few mediclization vibes were it says "this is your problem we can fix by fixing you and not by fixing the culture that makes you act like this". These are all nitpicks though
I relate to it, but more midday. I lived with my parents during college, so they maintained strong control over my schedule except mid-day when they were busy. In order to exert control sometimes I would skip meals, so I could lie to them and say I ate. I did this for no reason other than to control myself outside there bounds.
I do believe disordered eating has been linked to control issues before.

Wouldn't it make more sense to get up earlier? During the night you are tired and can't think well, and you're more prone to decision fatigue.

This is >>11552. I was originally going to leave imageboards again in August, but decided to delay until today both to get into imageboards again and because I normally start my long imageboard breaks in December. But now I'm going to make my final attempt to leave imageboards for three years. If this one doesn't work, then I guess it wasn't meant to be.
I'm doing this because I have many bad habits that have ruined my life, and they are all fundamentally intertwined with my computer addiction. The last ten years have disappeared into a black hole of screen-induced lethargy, and I have had problems with my wrists as well from years of poor ergonomics. The only times I've ever made progress in the right direction was when I dropped imageboards completely, but this was always nothing more than the first step on a long road. I've spent the last year thinking about and preparing ways to live less with my computer, and I'm going to put everything into practice now.
Normally, I'm more a lurker, but in the last six months I challenged myself to explore other imageboards and to post more often. I posted every day here in September and even started some threads, which I haven't done in ages. I've had a lot of fun with everyone, and I think I am leaving with a new appreciation for imageboards.
I wasn't sure where to put this post, but I didn't want it in a thread that would show up on /kaitensushi/. It doesn't matter if anyone reads this; I just wanted to leave one last sign that I was here, because three years is a long time and anything could happen. I'll see you sushi girls in three years and I wish you all the best.

Is summer here yet?
Still feels cold.
