Happy, birthday and Halloween Jake.

I've been playing Solitaire and thinking about cellular automata, and the assumed role of the player in progressing a game space.

Most of my childhood was spent justifying to my parents why I needed to buy a $30 set just because I wanted the cool 5 mm knife piece it came with. Which is the spoiled brat version of Grayson's second story.

For the second time in 13 years, I watched spirited away. I probably would've enjoyed it more if it wasn't part of a ghibli marathon looking for protagonist tropes. The first time I watched it was actually very affecting because of the little things that were in it that are very specifically designed to be scary for children that I don't find scary anymore. It sucks that I can't watch it in the same way I watched it before.

I have no pics from before I ate it but recently I've been eating only udon and tempura its delicious but please make it stop. I could slice my own udon but ~poor~ and ~no time~ so I buy sliced, precooked stuff, boil it up, add thinly sliced pork, mushrooms and carrots, and bok choi at the last minute. The soup is water, a little soy sauce, some white pepper, and some meat broth if I have it. Tempura is just shitty mix batter stuff. Apparently this is super wrong and I should brew the soup first, put the raw/semiraw ingredients together in the pot, pour in the soup and let them all cook together. Anyone make udon before?

I think the key thing is that the phrase denotes something of poor quality, in the context of it being ostensibly of good quality. You can bullshit, horseshit, bollocks, crap, etc your way through anything. This thread is making me lose my appetite.

I've been told that a lot of nonwestern cultures retain a separation of masculine/feminine identity but do not emphasize a power structure inherent in it, or have abstracted feminity and masculinity as collections of traits independent of gender. Can someone who's looked into this kind of thing back this up? I'm Chinese, and I can't say that it's true from the people I've interacted with that identify with the culture. Edit: I guess my real question is, can you retain the aesthetic of politeness/courteous submissiveness stereotypical of feminity while simultaneously promoting a culture that doesn't prescribe behavior based on gender? Is it even worth it? http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gender_differences_in_spoken_Japanese

Replace all the content on your blog with pro dota streams until she's better than Nick.

Twitter is quite fun When you break tweets into verse Mogamigawa

Gah! Aliceffekt, the dude who made Ledoiliel, also made a crap ton of other games/languages/apps that are focused on patterns of cognition and how they are expressed. Check him out, he's awesome.

Has it ever been mentioned how gross the topic title is? Also Nach that's catastic.

Gyo is just too wacky to be scary.

Haha I should totally end the con by ordering door size prints and attach it to the back of his closet door. There's a window of opportunity where I can have him see it, return before he does, and remove them.

It sounds like the only thing missing from Payday is the subtle character subplot simulator. Two gloved hands brushing as they pass the bag of dosh. A furtive glance from behind opaque masks, one covering the face and another covering the soul.

For the last two months I've been sneaking thumbs jokes into my roommate's life, who listens voraciously but doesn't know that I do too. The boldest thing so far was putting horse stickers on his backpack, listening to him chuckle about horsebag and clumsily attempt to explain it when I ask.

Holy shit the art in yotsuba is amazing.

EVERYBODY SHUT UP AND LET NICK BRECKON BRECKON

Yeah it's a real identity danger zone.

Political scenarios seem to emerge out of games with heavy social sim. Any games with stuff like that?

Whooo wok n' roll

It's cool that I can bake in a false impression just by passively supporting it. With enough time I'll begin to associate Yotsuba with you.

Nichijou mango spoilers (it's weird but there are some) Something about the themes of appreciating mundane life is helping me through a rough patch. EDIT: NOTHER EDIT: Found out that the guy who does the nichijou OPs voices both the male and female voices through digital modifiers: Which I guess isn't surprising when I go back and listen to it. K that's my Nichijou dump/scoop.

People who were legitimately concerned about journalistic ethics probably accidentally joined and fled gamergate in the same way people who would be concerned about neighborhood cleanliness accidentally join and flee neo-nazi "neighborhood cleanliness" organizations.

I fucking love Nichijou

What the fuck is your avatar. Edit: Oh I get it.
