The way they scream bloody murder if you so much as look at them wrong makes them seem stupid. No one takes animals who sound like that seriously.

Yeah, same with humans though tbh
Can't take us as an "intelligent race" seriously either. Pigs seem to scream and screech over less arbitrary stuff

Personally I think a half stylized version would be apt. Just the body

Girls can shave their heads too

Been pretty sedentary myself ever since finishing my mini bike tour. I think in total I did roughly 220 miles within the course of 4 days so afterwards I was way too drained. Stayed in bed for like a whole day. Went a bit over on my calories. Finally back in the gym after like a week

Getting out-merica'd by China. Damn

Incheon and LAX
My Incheon visits are hyper-inflated because I go there to welcome or see off friends and family. I've gone like 30 times, but I've only actually flown in and out of it like twice lol

Is that chicken

Yup.

Egg whites and Greek yogurt for breaky
Chicken breast and various kimchi for lunch
Sundubu-jjigae for dinner
Cutting hard these past few weeks

"Filled with Mexican flavors" lol no
Classic Korea being absolutely wrong about other cuisines.

No. Electronic music still needs arranged, composed, everything else normal music does.

AI art literslly generates itself. There is zero artistry going into it.

Its a false equivalence

One, that doesn't matter to some people. They can still find AI generated art beautiful. There doesn't need to be any "artistry" going into something for someone to find value in a work.

Two, that's why I also mentioned digital art, as in it's being created by an artist still. There is no false equivalence there.

Main point being it's arbitrary. And because of that it's foolish to dismiss entire mediums because of some arbitrary standard or requirement for enjoyment.

Yeah, moved to Seoul to work as a translator. Not a whole lot of Korean translation opportunities stateside it seems.

Dawg if you think music with real instruments doesnt exist anymore then idk what to tell you lol. I also encourage you to actually listen to some electronic music with an open mind. Calling not just a genre, but a ridiculously broad category of music dumb because of no actual instruments is kind of silly.

This is probably the most actual boomer post ive seen this entire topic lol

Honestly I don't see this as that crazy of a take. It's pretty much the same as AI art vs man-made art vs digital man-made art, etc. All can look great and that can be acknowledged, but you can't force someone to appreciate all of them. If someone appreciates one more than the other I don't think that's crazy. Conversely, when someone says that no (enter art form here) can ever be good, that's when you step into narrow-minded boomer territory. Saying you'll never appreciate one as much as the other is perfectly fine imo. Slightly pretentious yeah, but not too unreasonable

lol, they've got a better chance praying Sony tries to clone Smash again and make another PS All-stars if they want to see here in a smash-like game. There are so many other characters that come to mind when you think of Smash. She's not that popular nor requested I imagine.

Definitely overdid it today. Woke up at 3am so I could finish working by 11am. Heat was a little too much. Have to call it a day. Might not go as hard tomorrow. I hope some rest and water will revitalize me.

Yeah I didn't plan out my bike trip thoroughly. Took a bus down to Mokpo and plan on riding all the bike trails in this area until Sunday. Didn't check the weather until today to see it's gonna rain Saturday. We'll see how it goes...

I probably do more walking on the job than most people here do in a couple days. I had a foot pursuit last week where we ran over a mile and a half. My cardio is not really an issue

That's not a lot. A healthy person is supposed to get 10,000 steps a day. That's like 5 miles of walking a day. Even on my most sedentary days, I get at least 5 miles because I live in a walkable city. And most of that is because I want to, not because I have to. Gym, grocery store, restaurants, bus stations, subway stations, etc are all within a mile radius. And if I wanted to drive for some odd reason, I could. That privilege isn't stripped away from me because I live somewhere walkable lol.

I just think cities are miserable. I'd rather be in nature when I get back from work

You can have both of these things. It's all about good city planning. I didn't even consider how lush and beautiful things would be here in Seoul. I had spent some time in Tokyo and assumed it'd be similar, just a concrete jungle. However I don't have to go very far to escape the city noise. It's but a 10 minute walk away to some lovely sections undisturbed my man.

Moving to Seoul was one of the best choices I could have made. Didn't realize how car-cucked I was in the states. I thought driving was freedom. I've never been healthier both physically or mentally than I am now. All because I can walk or cycle almost anywhere. If places are far, I have access to immaculate public transit that's faster and more convenient than actually driving. Truly the perfect living conditions.

Oh, for running? Exclusively Brooks

They don't really get a choice in the matter. It's not like their old pushers are going to convert to legal business. It will be mostly billion-dollar corporations stocking existing package / porn stores.

You're largely underselling the sway they have. You have a very large choice and say in most matters when you put a gun to someone's head. Historically they haven't reacted peacefully to attempts of trying to take the profits or power out of their hands. The solution isn't so simple as legalize drugs.

Yeah, to me it seems like they were too scared to actually try something with this movie. Like they were intentionally trying to make this not political, dancing around something that's reflective of current tensions. Why even bother at that point.

I thought it was pretty lame how it totally bait and switched with Finn. Started off strong only to become one of the most side-character characters

Samurai Champloo or Fullmetal
Edit: Vinland Saga is also up there with those two. Idk how I forgot about it

Tyranthraxus posted...

Legalizing drugs would drive the cartels out of business in a few months

You think they'd let anyone live to sell? They're not going to simply just let someone else come in and take their jobs because it's officially sanctioned now. They'll continue treating them like they do the rest of their competition.

Nah, that seems pretty counterproductive. I'll do a strength training session and cardio session in the same day, but I don't go to the gym for cardio.

Multiple things can be true at the same time. Dude is an idiot that says stupid shit all the time and is a known grifter yes... But this time he was clearly making a joke. If that wasn't obvious, well... yeesh

I mean back in the day we also got plenty of incomplete games out of the box and there was no retroactive updates or fixes to save them.

this entire story smells fishy

ive noticed an uptik of guys talking about bad relationships with their girlfriends lately

Probably because male loneliness is prominent now more than ever it seems. I have a couple of pals that are just way too desperate and they put with some toxic stuff because they think that's better than no companionship at all.

I'm talking about Latine, and an article was already posted showing it is much more popular than Latinx among Spanish speakers:
https://www.axios.com/2024/04/11/latino-latinx-latine-hispanic-term-explainer

Ah, my bad, thought that was a typo. Didn't realize a new term was coined interesting

ssjevot posted...

All signs point to it eventually winning out. It's more popular, Spanish speaking people came up with it, .

Is it lol? I'm Mexican from SoCal. Never heard seen anyone Irl use Latinx back home. Especially never seen it firsthand from relatives in Mexico either. Last I recall, the general consensus amongst Hispanics is they don't care about it's use. Meaning it's not particularly disliked, but it's also rarely ever used. Only like a small percentage of people use it, and most just don't care to correct them. Like if some white colleague were talk to me and say Latinx, I'd think "huh?", but would just go along with them. Let them be

Yeah, my butt will certainly get sore on the long rides. Short ones are fine, but that's largely because I wear cycling shorts. If you plan on doing some rides, I can't emphasize the importance of them harder. They're padded in the rear/groin so it makes it so much more bearable.

As for the larger weight gain, it could be water weight? If you use creatine or have a higher sodium intake you're going to retain more water. Hard to say. I think the only way of being sure is using an app like My Fitness Pal to log your calories and activity to see what is causing a jump.

Good luck with the changes! For me I'm going to start implementing a daily step count. Want that recommended 10,000 a day at the bare minimum.

Destroy my legs with a ride, run, hike, or lift

Creatine definitely increases your weight and muscle mass. Just make sure it doesn't affect your kidneys.

I'm just seeing this. Amazing effort and elevation. My aim is to ride one mountain this year but I'm not sure when that's going to be.

Seeing that it's in the 60s in South Korea means it must have been a comfortable ride in terms of weather. Mine this afternoon was not.

48 minute row watching Konosuba & Date a Live

Set up a TV and headphones to my outdoor weight area and now I can lift while watching stupid shit, it's great. Did all of this watching the Konosuba Season 3 Dub during my day off post-ride. Absent-mindedly lifting is much better than sitting on my ass and drinking.

Very close to snatching my GF and doing a triathlon this Sunday one hour north from me. I want to see if my boss needs me to work because we really need the extra money and a virtual option is not terrible since I've already paid. I've done zero running training other than playing 2k while walking on the treadmill but my running folk say that it shouldn't be a problem to run a 5K early in the morning.

Thanks! It's definitely been my most intensive ride of 2024. I cycled across the country last year and this was my longest ride and climb
https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/forum/b/bd1e7896.jpg
I was much better conditioned as I was cycling every day and that was well into the trip so my body was acclimated. I'd like to do more intense rides like these, but now that summer is rolling around, it'll have to wait. Couldn't imagine doing this in 80+ weather with humidity or rain. So kudos to getting a ride in the heat. I'll probably take a cycling hiatus

As tiring as it is, I can't recommend it enough, a mountain ride is well worth it. Hope you find the opportunity. The ride down makes you feel like you are speed incarnate. Plus once you've cycled uphill enough times, it makes any type of run or walk uphill seem so much more bearable in comparison.

Yeah when i did it, everyone was naked but we all did our own thing. I was admiring the painting of Mt. Fuji on the wall, another dude was reading his kindle, and another was meditating or something. It was chill >_>

Yeah it can be a very surreal experience. I was in a mini onsen in Nagano, and I'm not too familiar with how hot the water is supposed to be. So when some older Japanese man dipped his toes in he was like "aren't you boiling in there?". And then he started to add cold water in while splashing the hot water out.

So then I got out and started helping him and then it occurred to me how unique of a situation it was to me personally. Being but ass naked with an old stranger kicking water out of a tub together. Yet it felt like normal occurrence.

Havent been to Japan, but as far as I know I wouldnt be allowed in the public baths anyway because a large majority of them dont allow tattoos.

Yeah but if you're clearly foreign, they tend to be more lenient. Of course some places it's still a strong no, but they understand now with their tourist economy they're losing out on a significant chunk of patronage. I found places that accommodated me in Osaka last year

A lot of people on the Internet seem to agree.

In this case Akuma would be good, too, right? Because they have similar fighting styles.

While he does have a similar moveset, I don't think he's going to be very beginner friendly. I haven't played SF6 in a fat minute so I haven't gotten my hands on him yet, however historically he's always been more of a technical glass cannon.

You definitely have more tools in the kit with him than you do Ken or Ryu, but without the fundamentals down there's a chance of being overwhelmed or over relying on things specific to him. Definitely worth moving on to after familiarizing yourself with the other shoto characters.

I agree let's spice things up, but maybe we shouldn't pick felon that's too heinous. Going with Trump is like going from 0 to 100. We should start with a felon that's significantly less awful. Maybe like a serial killer or cannibal?

Read this and first thought was Alex Jones at a busy traffic intersection going up to cars trying to sell hidden valley ranch to make ends meet. Idk why it didn't immediately occur to me that he could own a ranch lol

Korean movies have been better than American movies for at least 20 years and it really isn't even close.

Not only do I disagree but my hot take is Bong Joon Ho movies are severely overrated. Parasite was okay and that's about all he's got worth mentioning.
