Ever since I moved to The Netherlands, I’ve been grappling with seasonal depression like a muthafucka. Where I come from is warm and reasonably sunny, so having to deal with it being dark and cold for months on end (in addition to the relentless rain) certainly has an impact on my spirit. So I can somewhat relate to what you’re experiencing.

I’m glad you see a silver lining in it all, though. Don’t beat yourself up…seasons come and go, and this will certainly pass.

This video is literally me drunk in my apartment right now, in fact it’s the whole essence of my being, and that slightly scares me

I started cackling hysterically when I saw the preview on instagram.

Sometimes I wonder if Arc and Yoel peaced out because they couldn’t stand the cringe anymore

I’m not surprised he’s fucked up, but man what a shame. Guy was a cult figure.

just realized that 2024 is the 30th anniversary of Gackt’s first appearance as a vocalist and released something, in the band namely “Cains:Feel”…
his voice is, ethereal…
マリンブルーの風に抱かれて~
海に囁く、儚い夢を見せて~~
マリンブルーの風に、抱かれてままに、永久に~~~
ah, man. I want a lyric sheet of this song.

also, -Lie- is a funny track, especially that gang vocal part hahaha. almost crap kei level haha.

I dunno what the YT algo is doing, but I like the fact that the youngins are getting into early-'00s visual novel soundtracks even though they’re just labeling it “Frutiger Aero” (which kinda works.) Feeling a bit more validated after going down the rabbit-hole myself almost 15 years ago with Baldr Sky, Key, nekonekosoft, Sprite, and the I’ve Sound girls.

Erm, just hope they don’t look up the actual visual novel plots >_>.

**Now that I remember, the guy behind the Orisinal flash games sourced some of his OSTs from JP stuff. Bless flash games and Newgrounds.

sometimes the bathrooms you expect to be the dirtiest actually end up being the cleanest

this is what I call a masterpiece of dark fantasy anime. the plot is like a twist after twist, the CVs are as awesome as if it’s like burning money, the gore is at okayish level, but the art isn’t that bad. 10/10
a bad edgy daydream? well, at least some of you guys can’t even dream.

Whenever I invest the proper time and energy to pour into my family, I always think that there are few things more rewarding than that, if any. I have no relationships that are as beautifully reciprocal as those with my wife and kids, and it’s a blessing.

Sometimes I get so focused on the things that i’m doing and the things that I need to get done that I forget this.

Pouring out one for Tachiyomi (the manga reader) tonight :sob: .

I get the takedown, but Kakao can eat a dick for doxxing and threatening developers over manhwa.

Copypasting my little guide here:

What Happens Now?

So I heard you like forks:

  • Looks like the TachiyomiSY (a more nsfw-leaning fork) dev will start creating a “spiritual successor” called “Mihon”. In all likelihood it’ll be an advanced fork (or potentially something from the ground up) that strips any “Tachiyomi” branding along with some drastic aesthetic changes.

TachiyomiSY will continue! I will be basing the fork on a new Tachiyomi spiritual successor called Mihon. This only means that I will grab fixes and changes from Mihon, TachiyomiSY will keep its name and everything associated.

  • “Neko” in some ways already did that a while back with their fork of Tachiyomi. They were smart in not linking upstream to the original app, and they silently removed all references to “tachiyomi” on their repo. App is a lot different aesthetically, but a bit more resource-intensive.

  • There’s also Aniyomi which combines anime-watching, but streaming sites have obvious quality degredation. You’d be better served by * if you’re really adamant on not keeping local files. Aidoku or Paperback for Apple devices.

what were the threats are even about in the first place, is it the moral purity police or like copyright-related stuff?..
