I'll defend Spirited Away from the people who say it's too slow or boring or whatever no patience excuse.

It's a really awesome character study and character arc for Chihiro, ignoring the English dub ending which I think changes things
with the newly added last exchange between Chihiro and her parents implying she remembers what happened, rather than her forgetting consciously but having grown as a person in the real silent ending.

Dude, don't even get me started on Poppy Hill, I ****ing love that movie. The ending was predictable, but the wall between Umi and Shun was pretty devastating and really made me wonder how the two were going to handle it. It's a shame that I saw that move before Whisper of the Heart, because I feel like it was miles better.

Thanks for the suggestions people!

I've heard of the underweb very vaguely before. I think I read a really uninformative Wikipedia article on it or something. Care to explain?

The underweb is a place on the internet where everyone has complete and total anonymity so the can do whatever they want and say whatever they want with no fear of ever being connected to what they said/did. like you can sell drugs, hire hitmen, make forums about your plans to spread aids by rapeing you childeren ect. on the underweb.

How many of them are mechwarrior tho?
Usually about 30% of likes are from Mechliker.
I approve of a lot of things.
It's the only way to do that well!

Victim mentality and social justice BS is becoming such an increasing trend in the West, I'm getting sick of it at this point. America: the country where people get offended over every little thing.
I'm going to be a bit hypocritical right now. Hypocrisy can be justified, in rare cases.
Hopefully I'll make my point well enough to have that thought of me.

Not all of us over in this hive are like that.
Most are; but not everyone is a deranged caricature of what it means to live correctly.

Please. You want toxic? You visit 4chan and /v/.
You want the true measure of a person?
Give them anonymity.
Put them in front a computer screen.

"Man is least himself when he talks in his own person. Give him a mask, and he will tell you the truth."
- Oscar Wilde

The TOR network?
It's best experienced by oneself.
The good news is that it'll actually be just you if you use onion routing, like TOR.
No trackers, no targeted ads, no nothing.

That sort of thing is how you unperson yourself online.

I haven't heard anyone criticize Spirited Away. Wait ending change? Do you know of a specific article or your own words to explain more of that and the character analysis because I didn't catch much of the subtleties

oh balls I missed the activismtalk

don't get too close to echo chamber activism, folks. even the most well-meaning things in the world can have distinct harm when you refuse to let people call you out on it

I remember, at one point, I saw an argument that believed that paper itself was racist, because it was white

and the reasoning behind this was that once, paper in asia had a yellow color

I wanna just let y'all think on that for a moment. I want you to figure out the feedback loop here

but dosent paper turn yellow over time? I think that this change in paper color is a metaphor for all the cultures mixing and eventually turning into one bigger culture that no longer argues amongst ourselves because we have bigger problems to worry about, in the form of aliens.

hehe im such an optimist

So we need to invent a threat, maybe start a war against another race in space and then we will be united?

Oh boy and we can send to trial any alien loving traitors too. Your a genius, I'm in.

damn, that number is beautiful

the fact that a game with no possible real official acknowledgement, and all the chance in the world to have burned to the ground from lawsuit potential, has more entrants than games with official backing warms my cold, cynical soul

That's a hard one to answer. I'd like to say everyone is equal, and for the most part they are.

There are a couple of anomalies for good and bad, but these people know who they are and don't need me to publicly praise (or denounce) them.

does anyone here have any experience ordering off amazon.co.jp?

i want to buy some stuff (mostly cd's), but i'm not so sure about the costs. $dollars sounds about right for cd's, but im unsure how much it normally costs for shipping, assuming its for only 1 album

Your shipping would be three or four bucks if you were just getting standard shipping within the states. My friend bought an Otamatone, and those cost about 30 bucks. With shipping it came to somewhere closer to $40 or $50 I think.
