I've been to the star world and the special zone in Super Mario World. Does that count?

I work in a grocery store so I get to into the break room without getting in trouble

ngl one thing i envy about americans is all the abandoned places theyve got that no one cares about because their country is so big

Used the bathroom in a convenience store in a gas station in the middle of nowhere and there was a little window to an enclosed patch of grass that was otherwise inaccessible

What's up with 8/pol/ flag options?

This is sad.

711chan:
>Hello, big news… I've decided to resign as an administrator for 711chan for two reasons…
>Stress. Keeping the port down myself has been tough. The raids, CP spam, and dealing with Kusaba X is a taxing thing to do, and better people can take the reigns alongside lolwut.
>Motivation. My time and energy is very limited and I need to move on to better things.
>I will still hang around, post, and chill in IRC, but I will step down as admin soon.
>In my place, angryspessmarine and Longfag will become admins and run the site alongside lolwut.
>You can stop by IRC anytime and hang with us. Just don't bother me about admin stuff unless I need to speak with them.
>Let the slurpees flow, one last time from me as a staff <3.

Best alternative to 8kunt and 4cuck. Home to every topic under the sun, boards can have custom CSS and people are mostly chill. It's like 8ch.net used to be like.

like im an artist myself (art i posted isn’t by me tho obv and instead by the amazing SebastianvonBuchwald) and like to be consistent with what i enjoy, instead of switching up interests, and going from one popular thing to the another, or “trend hopping” as others would put it. but as of recently i decided to take a break from the furry community due to the problems it faces. one of it being how racism is rampant in the fandom

of course i decided to leave some other fandoms too, such as a roblox game called “forsaken”, because its banning people over using the term “pro ship”, which means “ship and let ship” and also “anti harassment”, and dark fiction/dark ship which means it explores darker themes whether it be sexual or not. and anti shipper is some who is against those kind of things. even though i was in fandoms long enough to witness this kind of stuff and discourse idk what is everyone’s stance on them now since its been nearly a decade already (didn’t start seeing them around until like 2020-2021 tho)

i also think it’s annoying how there’s digital artists(?????) that rely too much on moralism. i know this is the loud minority who are the loudest about “muh moralism in art” when it comes to drawings that supposed to be a form of freedom of expression and not ones morals are the loudest on big social medias such as twitter/x, instagram, and tik tok. but i think it’s really annoying on how this suddenly blew up in fan artists circles too. gotta draw a woman married to a man and living a traditional lifestyle or else i’ll be getting cancelled for drawing hot giant furry woman x her human bf that’s the average human height or else i’ll be cancelled over drawings /s

i can’t forget about how prominent ageism is in fandom spaces. it used to be fun and lively but now it’s filled with adults who suffer from nostalgic doomerism gatekeeping fandoms from minors because of “puriteens” or whatever for not being comfortable seeing fictional underaged characters being in certain weird situations (which is okay and valid actually). despite the same ageists claiming to be against christofascism

mfw the word “puriteen” is used by christian fundamentalists who are made teens aren’t having enough sex after prohibiting teens aka “young adults” from having sexual contact or looking at porn despite them having hormones which lead to sexual frustration. i was one of them. something i realized is that the word is being used on a similar Post too long.

>It's just plant matter and cancer is probably caused by the fucking deathsticks they call cigarettes.
Nicotine is such a deadly neurotoxin that its advised to not use it as a pesticide because its dangerous even if a few drops get on your food plants. Tobacco actually kills soil, literal death plant:
>Tobacco cultivation rapidly depleted the soil of nutrients. Although this may seem to be a strike against it, early settlers quickly discovered that virgin Virginia soil was too rich for successful harvest of traditional European crops, especially cereals. Tobacco broke down the fields and made food crops more productive.

Just the other day I was thinking about the loss of the 4chan language learning thread.
Me personally I'm learning portuguese, but I'm already around B2.
Also learning japanese and toki pona.

>>45687

Expedition 33

anons when the brine in a jar of pickles or olives turns yellow does that mean it's gone bad?

My sister just taught me an easy recipe for a greek yogurt dough pizza, which is perfect for me since I normally hate baking.
1 cup greek yogurt
1 cup flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon of salt
1)Mix in bowl for a little while with a spoon, once it's more of a stable dough, switch to mixing it with your hand, rolling the dough around the bowl.

2)Dust the table or other surface you'll manipulate the dough on with flour, take the dough out of the mixing bowl and put it on the surface. Gently push down on the dough ball with your hands, but don't pull it. Once you've pushed the dough down, dust a rolling pin with flour and roll out the dough. Once flat, crimp the sides of the dough to make a crust.
3)Lightly oil or apply parchment paper to a baking pan, transfer the flattened dough to the pan and add your tomato sauce and toppings. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees (F) or 200 (C). Insert the baking pan and cook for 10-15 minutes, then rotate the pizza 180 degrees and cook for another 10-15 minutes.
This feeds one person if you're very hungry.

>supermarket ribeye steaks
Bulk ordering directly from farms is a kind of anti-consumerist socialism, I guess? Its probably better quality but you need a big freezer or lots of friends to share with

anons who live outside am*rica what do you use to substitute graham crackers in crusts?

>Every lesbian relationship is toxic

meet some lesbians and youll know the reality of this statement.

>>45578
Yes.

"complexity" and "media literacy" are just literati cope for the fact that hollywood censorship won't allow for straightforward depiction of genuine progressive ideals (communism)

>Ward is liberal
Wildbow predicted the rise of "titans" who cause the foundations of the world order to crack

Worm was a story about the collapse of liberalism into neofeudalism, as seen in Hurricane Katrina. Its sequel Ward is about how these inhuman tech oligarchs like Elon Musk are far above normal bourgeoisie, just as Porky capitalists are above workers. That's why Glory Girl is so triggered by the idea of titans being way stronger than her where regular people are like "lol its just Thursday for us, relax". This accelerationism trend of wealth accumulation towards the ultra powerful makes the "petite" bourgeois class very offended by the idea that Elon Musk has exponentially more hegemony than they ever will. Taking control over the firmament on which we all stand isn't fair!!!

there anything sketchy about the UN doing all this? seems too good to be true

Perfect

Alright long story short, I used to be poor but rented a space with some gardenspace which was cool.

I moved and had to give that up (which really kinda depressed me) but now I have an easy, good paying job right now. I'm just planning to save some money and buy a field somewhere where I can put a small enough living space (or with a few people). With some luck I can turn this in a fully remote job too.

I'll love this thread. I used to work for am organic farm. It was pretty cool but I couldn't keep working there, also I want to go further.

Thank you for reading my blogpost.

The UN sometimes does good things. Not everything about it is the security council. They probably are taking advantage of the situation somehow but it's still good to slow down desertification.

>>46171
Thank you for writing it. Good luck on turning it into a remote job and getting the field.

>there anything sketchy about the UN doing all this? seems too good to be true
there's nothing sus about it, they're just forced to respond to China's publicized success in reversing desertification. Some Western countries were forced to give their populations some succdem healthcare during the cold war because the USSR was doing it. Now China's advances in greening deserts is forcing the UN to finally follow some good policies.

Is there some breakdown of audience demographics? Because, who watches this crap? How does it keep making money? Now obvious answer is children, but wouldnt children prefer animated version?

>>46099
>>46099
Well disney doesnt do 2d anymore. This is basically an animation considering one of the titular characters is full cgi. I don't know that kids really even prefer animation tho. I watched a lot of acted kids movies and even mixed live action and animation kids movies growing up, I think a lot of the acted ones did well, it is just the cartoons are more critically acclaimed.

I watched Sinners. The scene where they're playing music and all the ghosts of past and future black and Chinese musicians appear was kinda cringe. I understand what they were going for with it, all the best and most iconic music and culture of the USA was made by black USAnians but the juxtaposition of a modern DJ and rappers and rock stars with the old timey blues came off as silly.

Any good films yet this year? Everytime I look at new releases its celebrity documentaries, war propaganda, and cop propaganda.

I watched the movie Marshmallow. Or rather I tried to watch it. I'm embarrassed to say but I couldn't sit through the slow burn build up to the big reveal. I started skipping through it. Might be my fucked up brain. Might be that the movie just isn't that good. That's all I have to say about. Don't really know if I recommend it.
