Weird how Muslims do this in places where there aren't any Jews forcing them to. Almost as if Muslims are capable of being malefactors acting out their misdeeds on their own volition. But nah, that can't be true. I'm sure Japan, famous for its significant Jewish population, is only doing this because Israel or something.

*hanged

No. Muslims don't even count as people, much less White people.

How many faggot shows this upcoming season? It's two airing right now, with at least one per season every season for the past year or so. I've definitely noticed a deliberate and concentrated push to make BL/yaoi faggot anime more mainstream and front and center than in the past. I'm not entirely sure I'd call this the golden age. I think it's the last gasp before anime goes full pozz.

I really enjoyed it an I'm looking forward to the second half of the season. It should be noted that Kowloon Generic Romance is very much a psychological/sci-fi anime, whereas Smoking Behind the Supermarket has none of that. It's very much a 'two adult strangers form a bond through shared happenstance' romance anime, with no fantastical elements whatsoever.

I would personally say it's much closer to Catch Me at the Ballpark! in a lot of ways. The male MC is a salaryman who is beaten down by his job and seeks to unwind via some pastime, where he meets basically anime-manic-pixie-dreamgirl and they keep ending up in close proximity and eventually bond as friends and then as more. Ballpark! has a much larger extended cast and doesn't just focus on the two leads, and the overall story about the baseball team is actually really interesting and fun, and I don't even care about baseball or sports at all. In Smoking, the MC and the main girl keep ending up smoking together behind the grocery store and sharing more about their lives and getting closer, and in Ballpark the MC keeps getting served by a bubbly blonde gyuaru beer-girl at the ballpark, but in each case the strangers to friends to more progress is slow, but very enjoyable. And unlike Kowloon, there isn't some greater plot at work. It's just enjoyable adult-romance slice of life.

If you're into romcom anime that isn't about high schoolers and has adults that actually act like adults, another absolutely fantastic one is Crush at Work. In that one, the story actually begins with the couple already dating and just being together. All three anime are very comfortable and enjoyable, without all the love-triangles, misunderstandings, manufactured drama, and on-the-nose tropes you get from high school romcom anime.

Of course with members like (((Kadota Naoto))) and (((Marukane Yukiko))). Every single time amiright? We all know Islam only does this sort of thing when those people make them.

No doubt, but you would have to create it via observation, not survey. Women would never admit their truths out loud. It goes against their whole idea of the world, where words are meant to create a desired effect, not carriers of true data, where telling an uncomfortable truth about oneself means giving a possible enemy a weapon to use against you, and so on. There is no doubt such a list that could be made, but women will never willingly say what it is.

That fact that women go through their entire lives viewing every relationship and interaction with other people as some sort of game theory battle of manipulation, social cues, subtext, hidden meaning, and extraction of value for personal benefit, and that they cannot even understand that men simply don't think that way is always beyond their comprehension.

Interesting video IMO. It's a series of 100 'truths' about minute, each about a minute long, that this woman found when conducting research. I extracted the gist of the truths below.

4. The gap between profile photos and real-life appearance costs trust before the date even starts.
5. Height filters make men feel invisible, not just rejected.

20. Whether she can sit in silence signals her capacity for self-regulation.
21. Men can override lust for kindness/stability in long-term partner choice.
22. Performed dominance/aggression repels rather than intimidates.
23. Genuine softness (not weakness) is a top attraction trait.

Ngl, I'm a Hello Games believer. After the way they turned around NMS and produced so many high quality updates for free that ended up delivering on nearly all of their initial promises, I'm willing to give them the benefit of the doubt. No preorders of course, because preordering dumb as fuck. But I am optimistic about Light No Fire.

It was the default setting across the entire globe for the entire history of our species until the 20th century in the west. What we're experiencing now is a drastic aberration.

Any particular anime you're excited for?

The old 'if you fight your enemies, they win' argument will always be bullshit.

Pay it no head. The opinions of non Christians on Christianity is without value.

The counterargument is that it's not actually "God's House". It's not the Temple in Jerusalem. God has the same conversation with David when he tried to build a temple the first time. God has no need for a house on earth, the whole universe is his house. What happens is that the church ends up being a building for men, and men who are servants of God should not have finery and luxury and ostentation. It is better to have the plainest and simplest and cheapest building that will do the job of men on earth serving God, and use the rest for the work itself such as charity.

They'll go back home and go back to ingesting Euro-normie MSM propaganda and forget all of it in a month.

That's real easy to say, and it sounds like one of those cool sounding toughguy 'I spend all day chopping wood, building a house with my bare hands, and reading Cicero and Marcus Aurelius' sorts of AMOG witticisms, but it's not realistic or actually positive.

Not everyone is going to be good at everything, have the time or faculties to become good at everything, or always find enjoyment in only the things one can do and nothing else. Not everyone is equipped to be a good writer, or a good artist, or a good musician, or a good whatever human beings have found joy and leisurely pleasure in for thousands of years. Humans instead tend to seek out those who are good at those things. If you enjoy reading, but are not a good writer and have not the wit for it, you may instead seek out one who is and enjoy their writing. They may come to you for the thing you are good at.

If you don't like the word 'excitement', then try on 'are there any creators of leisurely pleasures that you have come to expect to produce quality things you enjoy, and do you positively anticipate their next work?'

People like things dude. Not everyone spends every waking moment of their life producing output, and it's actually bad to do so. A person should work and produce in moderation as they should seek pleasure and enjoyment in moderation. And finding that enjoyment in what others have made, and learning to anticipate it is not a bad thing.

Great fucking book. Even Lost World (the book) is pretty decent. And Chricton was based.

I recently picked up the latest Dresden Files, so I've been working through another reread before getting to it. Just finished Cold Days last week.

While Jellyfin is great for being entirely locally run and free, it is pretty inferior in terms of user experience compared to plex. The sorting, metadata, and library functions are stuck in what Plex was doing 6 or 7 years ago.

Who are you to tell God that He's wrong?

You use these words like 'satanic' while having no idea what they really mean and no belief in it yourself. It's just a catch phrase to you. A handy pejorative. If you are truly a Bible believing Christian, which you almost certainly are not, you would know that the Old Testament is as much the inerrant Word of God as the New Testament is.

There are ways built within each sci-fi franchise they've ruined to retcon all the shit that happened since they took over and set it back to when it was good. The thing is that they won't. If they were capable of recognizing that it's their own heap of shit that needs to be shoveled away for the franchise to be worth it again, they wouldn't have filled it with shit to begin with. They're not going to fix Dr. Who. They're not going to fix Star Trek. They're not going to fix Star Wars. They're not going to fix anything.

I'm not reading it at all. I am already as far as possible down the path of despising Islam and Globalism as I possibly can be. Subjecting my soul to utterly heartbreaking filth in the report will not push me further along the spectrum, since I'm already at the end of it. It will only make me feel horrible with no outlet to it, and I don't see a purpose in that.

Calling the values espoused in the Old Testament and New Testament 'satanic' is one hell of a blasphemy.

Image is broken for me.
