I'm too broke and mid to go clubbing in china :(

the fact that my mind went "huh they let people go clubbing in china?" shows the propaganda brainrot

>too mid
Nah man I think this is just the typical doomer self-inflicting mindset from imageboard culture you're hitting yourself with, the standards for beauty, especially for westerners, is lower in a place like China than what's probably the standard of your locality. You just have to understand and work with/against the fact that you thereby are a bit objectified in that way as an "exotic" thing within the foreign context.
If you do the bare minimum of maintaining basic routines for keeping yourself healthy (maintaining basic egoistic self-interest) by eating healthy, showering daily, sleeping regularly, grooming and working out a little (and in this context practicing the [target language] a little) you're good in most contexts and don't have to doubt yourself / hindering yourself.
>too broke
Now for sure, I'm no high spender myself, my income spirals around minimum wage, but I like exploring, learning about a variety of cultures and meeting different people and so I set aside savings for travel at least once a year, so far. Now in this case with China, I would most likely have to set a side savings for a two-year period, because the time I'd have to spend in China to actually get to know the culture is significantly larger than previous travels, considering its size and larger language barrier. With the China trip I would hope that I could spend between 4 and 6 months there my first time, because then I could get a scattershot understanding of the regional diversity by traveling to a variety of different cities and staying in the cities for at least 2 weeks each.

It's definitely a project in that sense and requires want and dedication.

Thank you :)

aaaa im proooogressing

made a font. it looks like complete ass because I drew the smaller version first then scaled it up rather than the other way around. it'll have to do for now

here's the latest build if anyone's curious. works with dosbox and wolf4sdl. for the latter copy the .wl6 files to /usr/share/games/wolf3d if you're on Debian. you need to rename some of the files to lower case
what I really need are drawfriends. some things I can get looking decent enough just editing wikimedia photos. it still kinda looks like ass. I'm happy with the drone though, might add some smoke and fire in the death animation. but yeah the main problem is I can't draw, only mess with layers and filters in GIMP
or perhaps Wolfenstein 3-D is too boring a game and engine to work off of. I have worked a lot more with Doom, and it is far more flexible and popular. plus with zscript you can do a lot of cool stuff without having to mess around with the engine. I can separate the build system from this project and upload it somewhere for the WOLF3D community to benefit from so my efforts aren't in vain

also some stats for how much custom content there is now:
sounds: 4 / 46 files
walls: 22 / 106 files
sprites: 117 / 436 files
fonts: 2 / 2 files
pics: 3 / 141 files
misc: 0 / 14 files
total: 148 / 745 = 20 %

on and with Doom using Freedoom as a basis is very viable, and legally safe

>Exercise
Raising CO2 levels is one of the main benefits of exercise, so i would also integrate Buteyko breathing. And remeber, any slander against Konstantin Buteyko is an attempt to discredit the scientific achievements of the SU.

Just for fun, what are foods that are commonly associated with priests/magicians wherever you guys are from? I know that the Brahmin caste in India has foods they are meant to abstain from but I don't know the details, nor do I know if different cults have different prescriptions for their diet etc.. Same goes for Buddhist monks, Imams, Catholic priests, Rabbis, Aztec priests, village shamans, schizophrenic people, I just want as much info as I can to compare and contrast and see if there are any commonalities.

Um, alcohol is a preservative? Idiot 🙄

Chatgpt answer:

That's a fascinating topic! Across cultures, food prescriptions for religious figures or magicians often relate to purity, sacrifice, symbolism, or rituals. Here's a breakdown of different traditions:

Hindu Brahmins

Diet: Many Brahmins are vegetarians, reflecting ahimsa (non-violence). Onion and garlic, which are considered "tamasic" (inducing ignorance and passion), are avoided in some regions.

Regional Variations: South Indian Brahmins often avoid fermented foods, while Kashmiri Pandits eat meat but abstain from beef.

Rituals: They prepare food in extremely clean environments, as food purity affects spiritual purity.


Buddhist Monks

Also, fuck snorers. Seriously, I'm a light sleeper and my bf has over the past two years of our relationship become legally obese. His snoring, especially when it's humid (fuck humidity btw) gets worse and I can't sleep.

It drills through earplugs and walls.

I'm the main one mostly working currently, he only work casually because "full time work is too hard". He eats all our food when he gets stressed, and everytime I try to implement any slight change in lifestyle adjustment he does it for a week then reverts back to gooning and eating.

I love him, he's my big cuddlebear with the thickest cock I've ever experience (like, holy shit) and at 6'3 I don't know if I'll ever find someone like him again.

Also I take two tablespoons of powdered Tumeric and ginger with freshly ground dried black pepper everyday (sometimes freshly grated tumeric and ginger when avaliable). That's helped I think with inflamation.

Seems to me to stay cold and in pain makes one live longer, so I guess my ex will live to 100 lmao

yes

Why the hell did you have to post that, anon? You could have posted a nice anime maid cleaning or some shit like that instead of whatever the hell that is.

sorry life has its brutalities, just keep it clean

>>44364
Brutal truth.

Well OP I've started to forcing this routine:
in rhythm with the paychecks / financial "have-to"s that usually occur towards the end of the month, I have those days (25th-31st) as generalized routine-repetitions (for things that take a couple of weeks and not a few days to before it needs to be redone ofc)
Example: Body hair grooming, washing bedsheets
You should do other stuff like vacuuming a bit more often, like weekly.
>getting stuff off the floor if [..] leave clothes and bits of paper and things everywhere
Make easier access to used clothes disposal and maybe get a smaller desk specifically for "need-to-do" paperwork. This way it's quicker to find and get done and you wont have to reach down so much.
Gl comrade, the struggle continues

at the beginning of the 20th century european powers already had centuries of experience spying on each other while the US did not and its intelligence agencies were underdeveloped

Hey Lois, remember that time the CIA ignored their whistleblower and got their covert comms uncovered by Iranians? Yeah, then they passed on their lists to Russia and China who then killed, like, hundreds of their agents. That was pretty sweet!

Pirate's life is a wonderful life

Piracy should be encouraged, although it's not useful socialist praxis to merely partake. You can study BitTorrent protocol and download a billion files and have no detectable impact on the labour movement. That said, it is a good habit and can provide real benefit to humanity (especially distributing non-fiction literature and software tools), which has flow-on effect. But even on a basic level, you having more money because you didn't pay a distributor middleman increases your power to contribute to the labour movement, so it's a good habit, in the same way that not throwing money down a drain is a good habit for building the socialist movement.

General open information thread: https://nukechan.net/social/thread/69.html

It's a trope, one of many that bounce around in pop art, at this point purely because of tradition. It obviously comes from the concept of a corrupted revolution that was derived from the Russian Revolution and later development of Stalinism.
Sometimes it can be conscious, though. In the 2010s reboot of the Planet of the Apes, the malicious corrupter of the ape revolution is literally named Koba, lol.

Dude, the plot and writing of the Micheal Bay-era Transformers films is literally schizophrenic and it doesn't matter since big names like Optimus Prime and Bumblebee always survive each film anyways which is what matters to the (then) kid viewers at the time. I'm a Transformers fan and as soon as the first film came out back in 2007 all of the old-school G1 fans discarded it and were never interested in the entire Bayformers franchise. It's sole "fanbase" were kids who were solely interested in the action, nothing else.
No one actually follows the plot. Every movie literally contradicts the next one right after. People just want their dumb robots fighting each other with racial stereotypes jokes and subliminal pro-pedophillia propaganda mixed in (look up the age of consent scene in one of the Mark Wahlberg Transformers films lmaoooo). Oh and CCP shilling.
While I think Rian Johnson and J. J. Abrams are both hackfrauds, they are capable of writing the basic structure of a saga that is mid at best, stupid at most but I can at least comprehend it.

What writers did the Transformers people even have??? It's always "ancient Transformers-related threat resurfaces from 9 trillion years ago to enact Total Human/Autobot Death, now it's up to the guy from 'He Will Not Divide Us' or that guy who screamed the n-word five times alongside his plucky robot sidekicks and a hot bitch to help him save the day!" simple as'.
Not like that matters now since the new generation of Transformers film is going back to its lighter G1 roots and the last Bayformers did so badly they had to reboot it with the aforementioned.

Well now Here the Autobots are comprised of a marginalized society, being the abused miners and Optimus rallies them to take charge of their destiny. So ya got the Autobots comprised of the oppressed worker class while the Decepticons are created from the ancient warrior class of the Iacon High Guard.
