I know this may sound fucked up or that I have no heart (which is absolutely not true because I'm a softie) but I hate when family members talk about their relatives illnesses in public or to people who don't really know them. I know that's some sort of coping, they want relief so talking about it helps, but I think it's very rude to talk about someone's cancer without them knowing. Plus it feels like gossiping to me.
Also it makes it seem like the person is trying to get pity points.

>>8456Nope I’m with you 100% and if people find out from someone else and are like “why didn’t you tell me?!” It’s not my story to tell, why should you know anything?
I feel like it’s selfish to discuss your feelings on someone else’s sickness or issues, like it take attention away from that person and focuses it on you and it makes people think about or pity you.

>>8456I'm so fucking guilty of this omg, but not with illnesses, more like shit my family members have done to me. I find it so natural, casual to be open about how they've treated me like shit and I know it's shitty and tasteless and most people aren't so open about that type of content. What can I say, my life is filled to the brim with shit. The main reason I feel bad is because my family members can't defend themselves and because they can't tell people how I've been a bitch myself (even if I try to, it isn't the same).
If that doesn't sound bad, it is. For example, I'll detail my siblings' living situations, how they are doing in life, etc. so I can explain how unfair it is that I am treated x way while my sibling is treated y way. Basically, it's too personal. I feel guilt about it and I'm going to try to work on it this year. It's just, I don't have a lot in common with people when I talk to them and it feels like everyone at least has a family…
I agree with you exact point somewhat, but it's difficult when your loved one is losing their mind (having delusions but they can still walk around and such) and is needy and rude to another one of your family members who is suffering because of that. I feel like at that point it's different because their illness is so severe that if they die and people are shocked, I mean, I do think people should get a heads up? At what point do people not talk about other people for fear of gossiping when other people intimately affect their lives so much? But I agree with diseases that don't affect the mind much (I don't mean ADHD, BPD, etc.). It's a complicated subject. I wouldn't think it rude if I'm affecting the day-to-day life of my family significantly.

My really unpopular opinion of the day is that people are accusing each other of sexual abuse when sometimes there was no real abuse at all, just regret and shame that came from things they did consensually.
What's more fucked up is that being accused of things nowadays means you're guilty to the public.
However how to stop that? It's impossible since it could prevent real victims of coming forward with their stories and accusations. It's hard, man.

You're thinking of porn small boobs, which sorry to burst your bubble, but are just as unrealistic as big porn boobs. If you think just reducing your boobs is going to make them magically stick up again, you're wrong, and they're going to continue to sag. Even if you get a lift with your reduction it'll last about as long as a reduction at your natural size and in a couple years you'll have small, saggy, deflated boobs. The grass is not greener.

If I could choose to magically get new boobs I'd get small ones just because my boobs are pretty big and I don't think they look good on me because of my height (very short, so I think they make me look heavier).

The transphobia on here and LC is really irritating, it's the one thing both places really have in common. The way people start shitting on trans women out of nowhere makes me think they obsess over trans women way more than is healthy, even if it's bait. I was going to post this last night but didn't want to start a debate, but the bait poster in the New Year's thread and LC thread just proved my point.
I know imageboards have always had a conservative slant, but at least before it seemed like people went outside and interacted with different types of people. Now it seems like people are just getting all their interaction online and staying in their hugboxes. I would never want to make friends off of here or LC.
Inb4 go back to tumblr– tumblr is the opposite side of the same coin and I feel a lot of the same things about mainstream tumblr culture.

>>8685I agree. You aren't alone, anon.
>>8669I used to think this also, but as time goes on, I realized I kept on loving blondes, became blonde myself, and yeah, I am full into blondes now. Funnily enough, I actually think it's more common for people to like dark-haired women now, I feel like I rarely see blondes where I live and I feel like people dying their hair black or dark brown is in now. The most common fetishized colors of women I feel are blue-eyed white ladies with dark hair, which imo looks basic as fuck.

>>8685Online interaction isn't the reason people have a problem with trans women. I don't really care what anybody else chooses to do with or to their own body as long as they aren't infringing upon the privacy or rights of another person. Trans people aren't the problem, it's the percentage of that minority that thinks that they ought to be able to behave atrociously towards biological women now that they're 'one of the girls'. Like this guy who joined our Lolita community who asked girls what kind of underwear they wore under their dresses, tried to insist that we 'dress him up' for meetups, was constantly hitting on other members of the comm when they clearly weren't interested, and then cried 'transphobia' when people told him he was making everyone uncomfortable.
Boundaries.
Fucking learn them.
Unfortunately, some of these guys simply can't or won't–they expect the rest of the world to bend over backwards to accommodate them, and life doesn't work like that for anyone, trans or not. Idk, I just don't have tolerance for anyone who plays the victim after behaving in such a way.

>>8729I have always wondered, what do we do with the "transgender" people who refuse to detransition? I mean, we obviously need to get help to those who are willing, but i think all options need to be considered. I think its dangerous to women to allow those who refuse to to stay in society, so isolating those who refuse to get help away where they can't cause societal harm I think is an appropriate response.
There's also extremination, but that view is typically extreme and should be reserved for those who don't comply willingly, it's for the best that we find some way to deprogram using humane methods MTTs back into being males, but i'm starting to think that extermination of MTTs is justified in the most extreme circumstances.
They need to detransition for the benefit of society, if the don't then they need to be isolated from society while we find ways to deprogram them of the social learning and their mental illness. I wish we could do it as humanely as possible but we can't tolerate them in society and we can't allow them to continue with their behavior when the safety of women are at stake.
I would prefer a compassionate response, but we need to be willing to accept that there may be no compassionate solution that also puts women in danger.

>>8828Agree and in the same vein I hate it when people don't train, and proceed to spoil their dogs so they become little monsters. Then they think it's "cute" when their behavior is bad. Okay so rant time lol.
My aunt and uncle are notorious for being awful dog owners. After their last dog died their daughter gave them this inbred bull pug mix. He's an absolute terror.
>he will lunge at my face if I'm sitting or bend down to pet>he won't stop licking, gnawing, and sneezing over my legs and exposed body parts even when I scold him no>he does that thing where he drags his dick over the carpet because aunt thinks that's funny and not gross…on other people's floors>begs at the table and whines >chews everything including shoesMy aunt has already had two hand injuries from him "accidentally" biting her. One of the last bites he caught onto her wedding band and almost degloved the skin going down her finger!
I went over to my parent's house for Christmas dinner and they initially brought the dog. He stunk to high heaven. I was sitting on the couch and he immediately tried to lunge at my face from behind. My parents already said he was not allowed over beforehand but that was my uncle's way of trying to guilt my parents into letting him stay. Before my grandpa died, he'd cave into that tactic so we'd have to put up with begging, drooling, whining, and scratching at dinners. "Can
dog's name come later?" Hahahaha, we told them nope! It was so glorious.

Every article you read about family and friends of a mentally ill person is about how they always should put up with all of the shitty things that the mentally ill person puts them through. We are expected to tolerate everything and always be available for them.
But if somebody says one wrong word to the mentally ill person (even if it's not meant in a bad way) they are evil. If they decide to leave and take care of their own life they are the worst person ever. Of course all of that will be made public so it looks like you are were treating them so badly. No mention of the countless times you were there for them.

I am okay with a little bit of fanservice in games/books/ect as long as it doesn't go overboard in what is a series that isn't just straight up a porn masturbation novel.
Things get better if you have equal opportunity fanservice in the same thing which is for men and women but I think this can be done respectfully and in a natural scenario that would occur.
There's a false equivalence that prevents people from critiquing "sexy" designs to become more practical but I personally think that even if there is unnecessary cheesecake as long as it's not too over the top retarded and the design is nice looking and not just bikini blonde titty warrior, I am okay with that.
For example the robot girl 2B in Nier Automata gets her clothes blown off which shows her butt but her dress and design is attractive and this is not super in your face.
I understand how simply having fanservice can enable men to leer and make women playing the game uncomfortable if they are present however.
I personally don't know if women should be encouraged to sexualize men in the way that men sexualize women because that makes straight men uncomfortable when they experience only a fraction of the shit that women get often. But I don't think they should bitch and moan if you get men in a speedo with the camera all up in there at the beach because that is a context appropriate fanservice scene. The best outcome would have sexuality that can be sexy but adds something to the state or relationship of the characters but this would be sexuality and not just mere shoehorned sexiness.

I don't get the appeal of the current "beautiful" girl. We have a thread here for cute girls and yes, they're cute but I don't see what's so beautiful about 90% of them (before anyone spergs, I'm not saying they're ugly). It's like you're only beautiful if you are tiny and if you have a small button nose and a super small face attempting to be a doll. On the other hand I'm not pleased with the instathot look which is basically slim and sometimes athletic gal with huge ass lips and dark long ass hair and almost as huge ass. Dunno. Maybe I'm just a party pooper but I guess I just don't like the current beauty standards. I'm not saying I like women that could roll down a mountain with their fat rolls but a softer body and an interesting face are so more appealing and beautiful to me, personally. Sometimes a bigger nose or a deeper set of eyes, or oval no chin faces are extremely gorgeous and it sucks those kinds of beauty are ignored.
I'm not trying to go full Tumblr and say down with beauty standards because that's fucking retarded. I just don't understand them quite well.

I prefer girls who have small breasts and large ass, any types of beauty beyond the current trend always has fans on the fringes and trends seem cyclical so they will cycle.
I agree with you however, that when some group pushes one ideal beauty too hard, I often seek out the opposite. There are plenty of bigger girls who aren't obese who carry themselves well, look soft, have cute faces and maintain great hygiene with good fashion choices.

On IG, it is very boring and all the girls are clones of one another – none of them stand out because of this. But that has to do with the way they style themselves and the bbls they get from the same doctor.
On imageboards and less mainstream sites the standards of beauty imo, is even more confining since it's usually only regulated to 1 or 2 phenotypes with little outliers beyond that and this strange sort of fixation and obsessiveness towards them.
The "cute girls" internet nerds and weirdos obsess over particularly annoy me, only because they're boring women with an approachable look to not be as pretty as a IG model but nice looking enough to not look like the scum of the earth. Also, they usually look geeky and homely and that bothers me. No coolness or sexiness.

As someone who reads lots of slash fanfic, I get sick of the new prevailing mentality that everything must be fluffy and unproblematic and all interpretations of an LGBT person must be infallibly good and only ever be victims.
Because, oh noooo, then otherwise you've feeding into the negative stereotypes fed through the media that gay people are untrustworthy, immoral abusers…but the thing is that the people who generally believe these stereotypes sure as hell ain't hanging around AO3.
I understand the desire for wholesome gay romance because so many gay couples get the shaft in mainstream media. They end up dying or one of their partners is portrayed as some deviant or immoral and sure these things are all incidental but there is some kind of coding there if it appears constantly. However I have no problem with gay villains because if they're well written, their morals are as reasonable if not more convincing than that of the hero's.
But the problem is that it's all so incredibly dull and boring and lacks any kind of complex dynamic for the sake of offending no one, that I feel like I can almost see the eye twitch and loaded shotgun when someone adds TAGGED noncon to the tag and they leave reeeeee-ing comments in the comments section.
Having only loving and pure gay love stories is simply not a reflection of reality and it helps to have a variety of stories being told.
Even if you do have some fucked up fics, you aren't going to stop people who commit actual sex crimes by removing them.
That won't stop their issues because these people tend to KNOW that what they're doing is fucking wrong and people who say "An ex-friend of mine who read this understood it's fine to abuse me!" tend to be made up anecdotes to finger point and police people to stop doing the thing I don't like.
While I'm at it, stop shaming 14 year old girls for loving boy-on-boy stuff, they're young and let them have fun for fucks sake.
I don't know any gay people who find young girls who ship them IRL anything but simply an annoyance. You're the reason why they have to lie on their blogs that they're ~transmen~ to enjoy m/m erotica which has always been a very female space and it's your fault young girls delude themselves into taking hormones to prevent them being labeled as unproblematic so they BECOME the soft gay boy~ but their boyfriends don't give too shits if they can fuck them regardless.

I find it kind of hard to understand how people who disapprove "fat shaming" in the West tend to not give two shits about it happening in Asian countries because "hurr durr Asians are naturally slimmer uwu~~ also it's their culture, they're expected by society to be thin!!1" …And that's it.
It's a bit hypocritical of them to say the least to make it a-ok when it's in weebland because "they're usually tinier" and "society", but reeee when it happens in the west. Shouldn't they give Asians crap for it too, and how do they feel when models like the girl in the video are treated like shit and overly criticized by people? (I haven't taken time to really see this comment section but the ones featuring her are usually full of Japanese saying she's fat and ugly, etc. Ironically she's not even THAT fat imo)
I mean, if you are absolutely against "fat shaming" I can at least understand some of the reasons even though it's an epidemic and detrimental to people's health, but the fact Nippon does it and it's ok there because tiny frame and culture doesn't make it excusable.

>>9803>hurr durr Asians are naturally slimmer uwuI see a lot of people say this and it's a untruth that's been scientifically proven otherwise for decades. People are just too lazy to look up things that challenge their perspective because I guess they want to view certain ethnicities a certain way.
First of all, the standards of BMI for Asians is different than for Caucasians and those of African descent. East Asians become clinically overweight at 23 or 24 BMI, South Asians at 22. It's because of their smaller bone structure and having less muscle mass means they have higher body fat % on average than Caucasians and especially Africans, meaning they have to be thinner to look normal. Second, if you give the Asian standard of overweight being at 23 BMI there are a lot more overweight people in those countries than a lot of people realize. Anyone who is non-Asian comparing themselves to these builds are delusional and living in la-la fantasy land.

Nothing makes me more livid when people on the Internet, (usually SJW dumpster fire) are so self absorbed that they turn what is essentially a very culturally, geographically context dependent story into issues closer to home.
They do this because deep down despite claiming to be a "voice" for minorities, they don't care if it doesn't extend to their own wellbeing or if minorities don't totally school them for being ignorant. Doing no research and being 0% critical of anything they read.
But rightfully they could have have their blinkers on for shit they're passionate about that they miss the forest for the trees.
This is more like believing that a moral about human greed and relationship with the land is actually feminist when that's simply not what the story tends to be…about.
It just makes so irrationally angry that I have to leave the computer because it's a waste arguing with them that they themselves are complicit in "whitewashing" because they believe that middle class white America, is the world and there is no way they could be misinformed.

I missed on plenty of actually good TV series like Black Mirror or Stranger Things because of people who were overhyping them and binging on Netflix in general. You know, the typical hur dur, watching tv series is my life, Destiel foreva! type of shit.
I hate to explain myself cause it sounds like I'm trying to be an obnoxious hipster that goes against normie tastes, but I can't control that. For some reason, when my friends and family have seen some movie, I don't feel compelled to watch it (not related to getting plot spoiled).

I don't like Douglas Adams stuff. My boyfriend has been watching Dirk Gently and it reminded me of everything I dislike about DA's shtick and bored me to tears. It's a tacky vomit of fantasy sci-fi universe whimsical adventure and I think after this show I understand what people dislike about Dr Who (which I liked many seasons of).
It also blatantly ripped off not only Dr Who - it was originally supposed to be a Dr Who story so it's not surprising but it was very noticeable who the main character was based on. Then the boy at the end could be straight out of the Neverending Story.
I zoned out a lot because the increasingly tacky settings made it feel like a Sunday afternoon made for TV movie with better production.

It makes me uncomfortable how Western beauty standards change every decade. I never noticed how strange this was until a Ethiopian friend of mine pointed it out. She's right. Middle Easterners, Asians, and Africans have the same beauty standards for centuries OR they change but it takes a long time. Why do Westerners especially Americans change what it means to be beautiful in a period of decades?
Second one. I think with the 70s and 80s there was intense progression and evolution in society and the music, culture, ect showed that. Things stagnated since the 2000s and it's not going to get better. People are uncreative and looking to the past for inspiration because Western society is going to get only worse from here on out and there isn't going to be a renaissance again until another 40 or 50 years.

As someone who hangs around Tumblr a fair amount, it's like they prize being gay as a character trait over all else. Not only that but they have absolutely no respect for straight people who respect them.
Even moreso in media.
There will be a straight couple in a series who clearly love and adore each other and they bend over backwards and try to rub it in your face that they're only friends and say I love you platonically to make room for ~the mlm/wlw solidarity~
Nothing else about the character matters or means anything. Not their personality, actions or words, but just that we can do the…"look at how gay I am, doing the gay thing xdxdd" token trash.
So much of their fanfic reads like a shitty YA!gay romance novel where I read lines like "She threw away every part of her that was straight and 100% heterosexual" and I just cringe hard.
Please write gay characters who just exist and love each other as any normal couple!
I understand how giddy you are to be out of the closet and openly express your attraction to the same sex, but please stop with the "soft gay bois uwu" stuff.
Especially if you are past 17!
Even in cases where sexuality is ambiguous, I wouldn't even care if they were straight gay/les if people didn't do the "smol gay and strong gay" shtick.
Not to mention tumblr shames bi women for lusting after those evil horrible men which is just awful and for not being lesbians which is shitty behaviour.

I have read posts which say that it's cultural appropriation for a white person to love and cook foreign food. It's like they want to prevent sharing culture forever. The people who complain about cultural appropriation the most tend to be white middle class who think it's their duty to address the implicit racism of poor "pee oh see" victims who can never stand for themselves or have their own opinions.

>One of the major causes of ED is society, and who's telling you that isn't TumblrThis is true, but the two are not mutually exclusive. They actively contribute to the culture that helped make them sick. They'll continue to indulge in media and hobbies that pushed them towards their disorder, like an alcoholic that refuses to stop going to bars or hanging around other alcoholics.
>Anorexics, bulimics, morbidly obese people?The former. Morbidly obese people at least tend to have some humility and are far more functional.
>Yes, most don't care about dying, but at the same time you don't see people murdering depressed people "because they didn't want to live anyway"The difference is 80-90% of people with depression who seek treatment no longer feel or think they way they did. They get better. Anorexic and bulimics on the other hand have a 65% relapse rate after only 2 years, and while the data isn't clear what that rate is for long term, if you talk to people who treat those people they all agree they rarely seen a truly recovered anorexic. They are almost guaranteed to relapse, and always secretly think that being skinny > everything else in life. They aren't treatable, in large part because they value things that are directly opposite to their treatment.
>>10248Because they contribute to and gobble up very sexist media. Also because- and this is completely anecdotal I admit- I see so many ana/bulimic girls who constantly hate on women but have fat bfs or worship fat ugly male celebrates. Women in general tend to do this, but it's especially pronounced in women with EDs.
Anonymous 10255
>>10252You seem to be talking more about the people you know than the problem itself. Not all anorexics hate other women, idolize fat stars and have overweight boyfriends. Tell any successfully treated anorexic or bulimic that they're not treatable and they will just laugh in your face. Those problems take TIME, PATIENCE and EFFORT to be treated, but having one doesn't mean you're a lost cause.
Plus Tumblr really is shit and makes everything bad in people flare up. In my honest opinion, it should die along with Vine. But everything else I said about EDs still applies.
You need to consider FOOD is everywhere in our daily lives and we need FOOD to survive. It's not like an alcoholic where some places won't offer booze and saying "no" where you can get it (social meeting) is usually more acceptable since you can just lie and say "I am sick, I am taking a med; I can't drink because X or Y".
Saying you can't eat makes things suspicious, that's why anorexics, binge eaters/bulimics tend to lie even to close members and their significant others just because of food.
You're also wrong about sexism: many people dealing with EDs want to look dainty and almost faery like, as if they weren't human. They don't want to be seen as sexual beings: they want to be seen as innocent children forever. Still that goes from person to person and I can't talk for everyone. I'm just letting you know it doesn't simply work how you probably think. For many women it's not about looking hot, it's about looking innocent and fragile.
Anonymous 10271
>>10252If you said "all pro-anas" instead of "everyone with ED" it would make much more sense and more would agree i bet.
Not every person with ED thinks being skinny is way more important than anything else or treats 'fat' people weirdly.
Some just have a distorted self-image and some just have trouble related to food.

>>10449Harry Potter is really only appealing to people who grew up with it. I started reading it as a child and continued reading it into my teens and adulthood, so it was a big part of my life. I've attempted reading the first book again as an adult and I'll admit, it's fairly boring but it's the foundation for the rest of the books in the series.
I guess it also wouldn't really appeal to people who aren't British or who didn't grow up on British media. I grew up reading similar books from Enid Blyton about boarding schools in the British countryside and I always fantasised about being sent to one. Harry Potter seriously appeals to British nostalgia. I was also reading a lot of Roald Dahl and Jacqueline Wilson around the same time, all four author's books are flooded with British culture.
Harry Potter opens describing a really typical, British housing estate with the obligatory working class family who think they're "posh". They're serial gossips who think they're better than everyone else on the street. Yeah, I'm sure it's not a uniquely British phenomenon but it's almost a requirement for every street in Britain to have one of these types and it's so easily recognisable within the book and always makes me laugh. On top of that, Honeydukes is just a cliché British sweet shop with things like hard sweets, sherbet, toffee, liquorice, pasties, jelly beans… Even Dumbledore likes sherbet lemons and Lupin carries chocolate. The students eat yorkshire pies and humbugs at dinner time ffs.
My point is that Harry Potter is so grounded in real-life British culture that it makes it almost believeable and really hits you right in the nostalgia as a British kid. Wondering which pub you pass in London might have a secret portal to a magical world and knowing that witches and wizards eat the same boring British sweets as you do is really exciting. I can understand why it wouldn't appeal to someone who wasn't raised on that culture. This anon

This may not be the best thread to ask this, but I don't want us to make a new LC thread because those threads always end up in shit shows. So I'll do it anyway because if i asked this over LC I'd get banned and several "hi Kiki"s, and would probably never really get an answer:
Why do people HATE Kota so much? I wasn't around in her ~golden~ era a few years back, but I did read most of her threads (yes I had lots of free time), if not all of them, to know the big deals such as the lying, crazy family, shitty jewelery, Asian jokes, dyke jokes, and the like. However those things are SO LONG GONE, and she still is fairly young (sorry if anyone here thinks life ends after 21. It doesn't!) that she could have really changed. And even if she didn't change she is absolutely harmless and never does anything milky except for bad shoops. Kiki was crazy but at least she was right about Kaka having no milk tbh, unless something incredible has happened the last couple weeks I haven't seen LC.
I'm not saying that making fun of cows is necessarily bad or that I'm superior by any means, so no need to accuse me of that. Only God knows how interested I am in reading about some other people posted on lc like Luna for example, but Kaka fascinates me because she didn't actually do anything truly horrible like scamming people, being a trash person who wants to keep girls in her basement, or commiting murder, but she gets onion tier hate.
So what gives? Do people want to wear her skin? Are they angry a chubby white girl is still living in Japan despite having photoshopped most of her pics? Are they just angry because projection?

I’ve defended both before (I only read one thread there now), and gotten similar reactions. Anons will mention Kota is an evil racist or bitch because of stuff she said when she was underage. I find this ironic, since you aren’t supposed to discuss underage people on the site…but picking stuff she said when she was 14 or so is somehow OK.
It’s obvious anons envy Taylor R too, seeing as she’s gotten shit for coming from an upperclass family, having a small dog, and marrying someone “much older” and lest us not forget she had some cosmetic surgery. What a terrible person, right?

People criticising H&M and celebrities pulling their collections for the coolest monkey in the jungle shirt fiasco are fucking stupid and a bunch of hypocrites.
Oh you use underpaid child labor in third world countries and underpay all your employers for my line? Oh well.
Oh you put a black model with a shirt that has the word monkey on it? i am pulling off all my connections with you, disgraceful! how you could do that to a child.
What if the model had been white? Would you still consider the shirt racist if a black mother bought it for her son? It's just a fucking horrible and tacky shirt meant to be quirky, not a political statement just because of the color of the skin of the model.
Like honestly, people making racist connections are thirsting for racism because a lot of mothers call their child monkeys (at least where i'm from) without it meaning racist shit, it might have been a lot of years ago (i.e black people zoos and shit), but associating the word monkey with black people as a first instinct as a form of racism in this day and age says more about the person that thinks it's bad rather than the person that didn't consider it bad.
Celebrities acting like this is the worst thing that could happen when their shitty overpriced h&m quality clothes were being produced by starving underpaid children in factories getting killed by the fumes are a bunch of fucking hypocrites. And so are all the people boycotting H&M for this bullshit.

Callout culture is shitty and the irritating thing is that our generation are going to be the generation that spreads and upholds this mentality. We'll be parents, mothers and fathers who have this bias which just tears other people down for vapid reasons.
The good thing is that a group of us realize this sham for what it is.
This might be a generalization but America has always seemed like a hotbed for racial issues but you know it's bad when people are actively looking for anything they can misconstrue as racist to wank off that they're ~combating racism in the only way we know how~ because it's easier to blame a minority group/celebrities and do nothing than actually take action for more insidious issues. But that would involve work that isn't simply lodging complaints and banging pots and pans in the forest.

Ex. I don't get the "infighting" bans on ot especially if it's mostly people arguing over unpopular opinions. Is this not the purpose of ot?
Seems like only one person ever gets banned anyway even if they didn't start it, how does that address the others who are willingly participating in the infighting?
And what separates infighting from justified replies? Makes no sense, and it seems up to the bias of the farmhand to decide which again, seems like extra bs.
It never used to be this way. This is something new that has started popping up within the past ~2 months. I appreciated the bans when people would start derailing and/or blogposting on actual cow threads, but it seems to be leaking onto the ot boards as well. I don't even post much out of concern that if I post something that gets another anon mad enough, they'll report it.

Plants WANT to be eaten. Why do fruits look so beautiful and colourful? Why do apples and peppers turn from one colour to another when they're ripe? Fruits want you to know when they're ripe, they want their seeds to be dispersed. Fruits want us to eat them just like flowers want to attract bees and butterflies with their beautiful petals. It's natural to see a big, juicy strawberry and think "yum" because that's how nature intended it to be.

I was vegetarian for a long time and I definitely want to go back because when I think about it I feel pretty disgusting and that I am doing something wrong, and I will soon (in fact I'm starting to readjust), but "extreme" views are usually wrong because humans > animals no matter how much fucked up mankind can be. I could explain this further but I couldn't be assed right now and someone will say this to you eventually, whether here, IRL or somewhere else online.
Also I suggest you check the controversy regarding veganism and abortion. Several vegans do not support abortion because it goes against the core of some of our beliefs, and maybe reading about it would be good for you because why the fuck not?
Also just for the sake of curiosity: Moz doesn't actively support abortion, he's still full of doubts on the subject. Sage for 80s Brit popstar.

I'm just saying that differentiating between pain reception is silly. Also, suffering is natural. Or would you want to turn all the carnivores into vegans? Capture wild life just to force them to eat veggies? But then herbivores will still fight for mating rights. Whats your solution for that?

One is implying abortion is bad because they believe it to be murder and would never kill another human.
The other is someone enjoying an animal product because they don't believe a farm animal is afforded the same rights as a human and would murder it for the sake of eating it.
>>10578>if it has no concept of pain then it's okay to eatSo insects, mollusks, and some crustaceans are at least fair game.
>>10584>plants want to be eatenThat is an evolutionary trait that served a specific purpose in the plant's reproductive cycle. The idea was that the animals eating the fruit would crap out the seeds on some fertile soil and increase the chance of producing more plants.
Very few modern humans shit in a woods. Their crap winds up in sewage treatment plants where undigested seeds are destroyed, eliminating any chance of that plant or tree's reproduction.
Like I'm not agreeing with the whole "plants feel pain too," because I really do believe they're just reacting to stimuli like other non-feeling creatures. But we can't pretend like we're doing the plants a huge favor. Especially when we selectively hybridize them for the traits we want. If they had the capacity, they'd know we bastardized them.

>>11098>>11099Now I see where the fundamental problem lies. You guys think in absolutes, while I (and CICO) do in relatives. CICO is not about a generic (magical) amount that everyone has to eat to lose weight. It is about bringing down (or below) your own intake to your personal
metabolism adjusted energy consumption. One's intake is irrelevant to other's. The same goes for metabolism.
The same diet won't have the same effect on each individual. CICO is not like other diets where they prescribe exactly what and how much you are supposed to eat each day. It is something you have to figure out yourself and adjust constantly. Other generic form of diets work for everyone because they legitimately make
everyone starve.
Yeah, it sucks that some people can eat more than others, but that doesn't disprove the CICO method.

Basically it's how beneficial bacterial colonies being wiped out has caused and/or exacerbated autoimmune disorders and obesity (and this happens primarily due to the use of antibiotics). Research has already been published that sick kids who were prescribed antibiotics were more likely to be obese.
Could it be that these bad bacterial colonies cause fatigue, or drive people to crave unhealthy foods?
And although it's nothing new, fecal transplants from people with healthy gut flora are also interesting as they are shown to help.

i think the issue with CICO is that metabolism actually affects CICO directly. meaning if you're like me and have a fast metabolism my intake can be much much higher than people with average or slow metabolism. I legit eat 4000 calories a day and am not even in the overweight category. am i healthy? no, but i don't need to worry about it. if i do any exercise i get very hungry almost immediately, regardless of how much i eat usually. my body just doesn't store any fat. drs have thought i had hyperthyroid or EDs in the past because of this. that said, it obviously goes the other way, there are going to be people who have to eat waaaay less and exercise waaaaay more to even just lose weight, let alone keep it off. now, i'm not saying that's the norm, but ignoring how metabolism directly affects CICO.

"Just be positive" is a really stupid thing to say and pretty crappy advice imo.
Anonymous 11193
>>11183That's something that's gotten to meme status but originates in sound advice. Your mentality in approaching a problem plays a big role in treatment, a positive outlook is statistically more effective than SSRI/SNRI/tricyclics/MAOI for MDD for example. That's why CBT(with mindfulness training) coupled with an antidepressant more than triples the success rate of the treatment and minimizes relapse.
WARNING: Boring stuff
Recent studies have hinted that the chemical imbalances in the brain are more transient than we originally thought, merely a symptom of an underlying issue. As in the cells have the capacity to have long-term potentiation, depression and neural facilitation. There are some neuroscientists that pinpoint the issue to the Nucleus accumbens (reward system) and a mix of genetic predisposition with epigenetic variables. The patient has the capacity to reinforce patterns and over time "teach" their brain to respond to stimuli in different ways. Especially to eliminate aversion, maximize motivation and have increased paired pulse facilitation (especially with neurofeedback treatment for serious disorders like ASD, schizophrenia and DID). All the while trying to minimize sensitization which is the underlying issue of mental illnesses.

I think it's wrong to complain about furries/otaku/neckbeards/robots/etc who act socially inappropriately to get attention. They are the way they are because they don't have experience making friends and are socially isolated. If you're not going to invest time into them to give them positive attention and be their friend, then don't complain about their negative attention seeking behavior. (This probably sounds roboty but I just really like social outcasts and I feel motherly towards them.)

No one NEEDS to figure themselves out in their 20s, people are always changing and transforming. People expect too much from young people now, some of them just aren't possible anymore in 2018, this is not the 1980s when your parents were young. Life is completely different.
I'm not saying you shouldn't pursue education or get a job, or commit to someone, not at all. All I'm saying is that sometimes people expect too much from young men and women who haven't anything figured out yet, and financial aspects can be a bummer because life isn't that simple anymore.

Anonymous 11762
>>11759I have a similar opinion as well… sort of… I'd say that if the CP is at least more than 10 years old then there shouldn't be a problem. though new stuff should still be illegal to produce, sell and buy. I know the buyer isn't technically doing anything wrong, but if people keep paying for it, people will keep making it.
Anonymous 11763
>>11762Yeah but owning it is kind of encouraging people who produce such content to do so.
Plus, laws are what you could call an "official expression of the culture and morals". You can compare it to the fact that for a man forcing his spouse to have a sexual intercourse wasn't prohibited 40 or 50 years ago because it wasn't rape, since the woman was "owned" by the man. This changed and now it is considered as rape and is even more severly punished than a rape on an unknown. Well for child pornography it's pretty much the same, society considers that anything related to sexuality and children must be banned. If one day, sex with children is considered as normal, it won't be punished anymore. But for now, the buyer is doing something wrong because it's seen as a deviance by our society.
Anonymous 11767
>>11762>>11759Absolutely not. The children were harmed while making it and probably were traumatized by what happened to them. It should be destroyed even if the victim is now 30, 40, 50 years old. It's disrespectful to them.

if you ask me, lolis are the best solution to CP. the characters in them are fictional, so no actual harm is being done, and pedos can use that instead of actual CP or acting on their intentions. the problem is that allot more countries than you may think have made it illegal.

Having a limit age to dictate how women should dress is stupid and everyone who encourages it needs to take a step back and focus more on their life and their insecurities.
It seems that as soon as your reach your mid-20s you are expected to dress without any specific style and like a borderline grandma with no real substance or otherwise you are considered a weirdo by the insecure populace. Who the fuck cares if a 30 year old woman wants to dress like a goth? who the fuck cares if a grandma has blue hair and is dressed in all pink ruffles? Why do people get so triggered about women living their life like they want and not being constantly afraid of aging?
"oh she should dress more appropriately for her age" "what does she think dressing like that at her age" "why is she wearing that… she is not a teenager anymore"
"she seems she can't let go of her youth" Or maybe she isn't constantly afraid of aging and does not let a bunch of numbers dictate how much fun she should have in life.
Fucking bleh.
Have fun basically dying in your mid-20s of
gasp super old age, while i'll be a grandma living life like i want.
>>11759I wholeheartedly disagree. Having any kind of CP encourages pedophiles to normalize their condition.
Also ALL CP is made out of rape and suffering of children, it should never be produced or kept, no matter under what conditions.
Pedophiles should be able to seek help more easily from psychologists without fear so they wouldn't act up in the real world. But normalizing the sexualisation of children even more and fulfilling their desires will do nothing good for society and those mentally ill pedophiles.

self-love is a part of but does not necessarily equate to arrogance. arrogance is perceiving yourself as being better than others, loving yourself so much that you delude yourself into thinking that your flaws don't exist, or that any mistake you make is actually due to someone else's bungling. self-love means that you accept that while you have flaws, they are forgivable, and you recognize your capacity for improvement as well as your positive qualities.
i was depressed for years, to the point of attempting to take my own life, because i felt like i was a worthless waste of resources. my self-esteem only started to recover when i began trying to cultivate an inner voice that gave myself pep talks to recover from a mistake, instead of focusing on what i had done wrong. it's not arrogance to be kind to yourself.
Anonymous 11873
>>11868Self-love admitted by one's own self is narcissism, precisely because flaws and mistakes can only be forgiven by others, not one's self. Arrogance becomes confidence only when it is permitted by others, society.

>>12001curvy doesn't only mean huge boobs and butt you fucking tard. it's literally only the difference between your waist and hip. Meaning if you have a small waist but still relatively small or average hips without having a big ass or big boobs you are still CURVY.
You probably have none of the above you block waisted dumbass.

Skinny women don't have curves, ever, aren't feminine or elegant, look like shit, and they should be embarrassed that I can post a picture of their bodies on a trans/trap website and no one would know that they aren't a man in a dress :)

Lol mod you're such a joke. You let a deranged anorexic go into periodic fits where she is an insulting cunt in multiple threads, you've let her literally thinspo post and only put a stop to it when the user base complained, you let her make duplicate threads despite meticulously merging things like similarly theme image threads, and you play dumb about all of this. But the minute I sling the shit back and talk about how gross these people are both physically and as humans suddenly it's too mean and it needs to stop.

Overwatch is definitely overhyped…It's not bad, but definitely unworthy of all praises it gets.

I find girls that like love live! immature/superficial and/or antisocial sometimes. I'm not saying that anime in general is stupid (quite the contrary) it's just that generally people that I known that enjoy love live! seem to behave like that.

people take nonsense on the internet way too seriously sometimes, especially on imageboards which is the most retarded way to get mad online. it's embarrassing and you just stress yourself out for no reason. i think this is an unpopular opinion because most people seem to act the opposite.

No matter what people say, the new moe anime style is much more pleasing to the eye than the older ones.
I mean, I love a few older animes (Sailor Moon, Revolutionary girl Utena, Samurai x, etc.), but I'm not really into all the sharp and thick art. The thin lines and toned down colors are much nicer to look at.
Anonymous 12217
>>12215I agree with you. New style is much cuter and cleaner.
Anonymous 12218
>>12215It's objectively less pleasing. The lines are less voluptuous and rounded. The shading is less complex. It's more elementary.
Outside of being "objective", I dislike how paler they are, how more inhumane and featureless they look, how their facial expressions look more listless, and their bodies look hunch back and tend to look skinny fat, as opposed to the more athletic curves of female 80s & 90s characters or muscular slim bodies of 80s and 90s male characters. It's like it's trying to appeal to the losers who watch it.

>>12212Yes it always surprised me when I typed some nonsense as a joke obviously joking around and people legitimately got mad.

>>12215interesting. i have the opposite knee jerk reaction. the 90's characters in that graphic have so much more personality and "life" and you can imagine them talking and moving easily. the moe one looks so like a derpy sock monkey devoid of any human thoughts. the only thing i can get behind is less garish colors and shading.

Current anime look has nothing on 80's and 90's anime.
Most anime girls and boys now look all the same, with bordeline child bodies, same facial structure that does not derive from the norm, no personality in their design, and no variety other than hair color and hairstyle, yawns.
I'd take stuff like pic related a thousand times over any current borin ass moe shit design.

vent threads in cc and lc could be fun if people actually vented about random shit. like, some guy said the weirdest thing to me today! or TIFU i did the dumbest thing in front of my crush today! or I GOT FIRED TODAY, MY EX BOSS IS A ____ and other dumb drama and stuff like that. i know you do get actual random venting, but in my experience all posts are usually
>i'm depressed
>i'm sad
>no friends
>i've never seen a therapist in my lifetime, but idk guys i can't stand living with this self diagnosed social anxiety and depression anymore </3
>add me on discord cuz i need lady friends :(
but i don't know,when most posts are about stuff like that it loses any impact.
most of those posts hardly get replies too because the lurkers in those threads just want to post "im sad" too and nothing else. of course i'm overgeneralizing it and i'm aware mental illness does exist. i'm just saying i wish vent threads geared more towards dumb greentext venting. and less of those all too similar vague posts about how hard things are. idk, crucify me, after the fifth post itt that's exactly like yours, i stop caring completely. so unpopular opinion; its a vent thread not professional therapy session. the reason you don't get replies, is because most people don't care. who knows, i don't check those threads anymore because of that i'm probably being cynical

Kpop is trash. All singers look like skinny gay faggots and their music is just as shit as most western pop music. It needs to die. Their fans are cancerous too.
Anonymous 12409
>>12398Agreed. The music is basic as fuck and for those who can't into real music without turning to the radio or looking at the flavour of the month kpop group videos on youtube's trending front page. Korea and their society is so fucked up I don't get how koreaboos become obsessed with it or any of the surgery-ridden "idols". I can see falling into the japan trap when you're young, but there's absolutely nothing likeable about korea's values or stolen western pop culture whatsoever. It's really disgusting what's going on there and people romanticising it is faith lost.

>>12398>>12409I'm all for people enjoying whatever it is they like but in the past five years k-pop has become more popular and it's getting On my nerves
My sister, my friend both people in their 20's are huge k-pop fans and it's absolutely embarrassing
When my sister explained the process the stars go through to get poplular it sounded so awful so why support the groups?? You're supporting an awful industry (not the singers themselves they're just puppets)
It's just like Hollywood but extremely sugarcoated with uwu cute boys and uwu cute girls
Props to the ones who could dance but I can't stand most Korean singing voices
This is kinda irrelevant but since we're on this topic, ask anyone what's a place they wanna travel to and if it's Korea or Japan I'm already assuming they're koreaboos/weaboos (no offense to those who genuinely love those countries for its actual culture but I'm so sick of this wierd weaboo culture)

>>12409>>12409>>12411My biggest problem is that it's just extremely derivative of fucking 90s and 2000s American music, including R&B and Pop music. It's not even taking from the genre and making it sound modern, they're literally ripping off some melodies, chord progressions, basslines, ect from American singers and putting it over their Korean shit. Not only that, they're stealing whole choreographies and looks too.
Not only it is highly illegal and copyright infringement, but very very uncreative and unoriginal. Imagine fucking supporting a carbon copy plastic rip off of the artists who did it better, who were far more talented, and innovative anyway.
That's my problem with Korean and Japan media in general, tbh. A lot of it is extremely derivative of Western shit and retarded Westerners get stupidly impressed all the time because I guess, they see cool Eastern people doing it.

Very interesting read, it explains just how much propaganda is behind this whole kpop machinery and looking at the sudden insane increase of its popularity all over the world, sadly it seems to work…
Kpop is not only taking over the music industry, but their fashion, makeup, skin care, even snacks are in high demand
https://www.npr.org/sections/codeswitch/2015/04/13/399414351/how-the-south-korean-government-made-k-pop-a-thingIn the late '90s, when Asia went through a huge financial crisis, South Korea's leaders decided to use music to improve its image and build its cultural influence. So the country's government poured millions of dollars into forming a Ministry of Culture with a specific department devoted to K-pop.
"It turns out that the Korean government treats its K-pop industry the way that the American government treats its automobile and banking industry, meaning that these are industries that have to be protected," Hong says.
This included doing things like building massive, multi-million dollar concert auditoriums, refining hologram technology, and even helping regulate noeraebangs — karaoke bars — to protect the interests of K-pop stars.
"They wanted Korea of the 21st century to be like America of the 20th century where America was just considered so universally cool that anything made in America would automatically be bought."
