Same, bugs are like 80% of the reason I don't like just chilling outside. Can't eat or drink, can't sit on anything, certainly can't sit or lay in grass, and even brushing legs against tall grass risks ticks (the 20% is a sort of social anxiety about being observed)

Thank the ancient guy who drowned himself so that we can have one extra day of holiday now. Yes dragonboat did not start with Qu Yuan, yes this is a joke, no it is not insensitive we do not worry about offending people who died two thousand years ago, NO HOST QUIT THE ANXIETY NOBODY IS GETTING OFFENDED BY 1(one) MINOR CULTURAL MISREPRESENTATION———— ......Ahem. I was planning to make a (slightly morbid) joke about our holidays, but... Ah well. The (one sided) exchange is sort of comedic still, so I'm keeping it. Anyway, three days of holidays incoming, yay. *casually ignores the four days' worth of homework piled out of sight

I'm really hard to like myself. I guess that's why I have a soft spot for you. Difficult people usually know each other because they intuit the hardship one has to endure to get that point. We're definitely similar people, because you effortlessly made associations I would have otherwise: the devil castle cannon was similar to aesthetics from THE SHIP OF DOOM, but also TENSHI NO TOMAGO. The latter is one of my favourite films, as it contains numerous Biblical allusions. I dearly love Mamorou Oshii's work, and my other favourite film he directed is AKAI MEGANE. I would love to watch it with you at some point. I notice you have a vested interest in Dragon Ball. I never truly got into it, but Twi enjoys DOCTOR SLUMP, if only because she's similar to the robot girl named Arale. Do you have a favourite installation in the Dragon Ball mythos?

Finally had some time and brain power to read through this. 😁 Also, good luck with lucid dreaming! 😊 Congrats! 😊 I'm glad she had a lot of fun! I need to play Bendy and the Ink Machine sometime. 😄 Lol! 😆 Belated seconding! It's a lot of fun to play a game your host has played before you were even around! 😁 Awesome! 🤩 I've been wanting to see that. 😄
-
I don't have much to say besides I found this funny and I like the expressions you drew. 😁
-
Glad to hear you're doing well. 😊 It's nice that you have someone motivating you. 😁
-
These are cute! 😊 I really like the whole vibe Clouse has. 😁
-
Sounds poetic and nice. 😊 You're welcome, lol. "Aww, crud! I left the phone capsule at home."/j Aww, I'm sure it just takes practice. 😁 Pretty sure Bre thinks about these long before she posts too. I can't imagine just thinking of those off the top of your head. Aww, I hope you sleep/slept well! (っ.❛ ᴗ ❛.)っ Forgot about this. Lol! 🤣 Edit: sleepy time, good night, everyone! 😊

you start with observations and questions, and then you try to fill in the gaps with the answers you think would be most compelling i would still consider myself a beginner at piano and at composition. this is the first time i've attempting to arrange anything, but it's been a lot of fun and i've been learning a lot i've been listening to a lot of different kingdom hearts songs, and looking at sheet music and such that other people have made, and trying to figure out the melodies and motifs. my understanding of music theory is pretty rudimentary, so mostly i'm just going off of trial and error and listening to what sounds right and what doesn't. but even if i lack the theoretical knowledge to articulate it, i'm starting to glimpse at the way that all of these pieces were made to fit together. i feel like i understand something deeper about these songs that i wasn't able to appreciate before yoko shimomura may not know me, but i feel a connection to her through the knowledge she has bestowed upon me with these songs music is a good hobby then it will take me on an eggventure

Quest for the Liminal World (a lucid dreaming thread)

@Pierrot Thank you! -
whatever makes me compulsively edit posts because i kept adding or changing that one for the entire 26 minute lifespan until shaula posted lol i have to watch scene again since i forget the context and would not have thought about it until linda and byakko saw it some weeks ago. she usually has a case of capsules on her all the time so one would probably have a phone, but idr if there was a reason she didn't i typed a text wall trying to think about the db world the way bre talks about the pokemon world but i am not as good at it so it primarily was a bunch of observations and questions. i then spent way to long trying to figure out how bulma's journey to find the dragonballs the first time if she was by herself the entire time omg i have a migraine. gonna sleep rad i've done 0 music i think pb and maybe mitski can understand more maybe me, playing lotpw on mega hard mode where i spent like an hour and a half typing and researching a post i ended up deleting anyway. not very cash money. or not very time post, i mean what happens if you let your egg guide you

Quest for the Liminal World (a lucid dreaming thread)

Ooooh thats really cool. Good luck on your dream journal! -

What's the Liminal World? The Liminal World is my attempt to create a persistent realm within my dreams, but it would be more accurate to call it a fusion of a paracosmic multiverse and an RPG. My home in the Liminal World is a single room, based on Madotsuki's room in Yume Nikki (with some changes). Since Yume Nikki is a game about exploring dreams, it seems fitting. Everything else (except the veranda) exists in a Dream World. There are three ways I can enter a Dream World: Fall asleep in this room. Doing this while physically awake (i.e., imagining myself falling asleep) will return me to whichever Dream World I last visited. Enter it from the Nexus. Fall asleep in physical reality and have a dream there. The Nexus is just like in Yume Nikki: I leave my room and enter void-like place full of doors to Dream Worlds. At least, that's the plan. I haven't been there yet, and the only way to get there is either in a dream or by spending a Dream Token to unlock my door (it's locked while I'm awake, another mechanic stolen from YN). Creating a door to a world I haven't visited will cost more Dream Tokens if I'm not asleep. How do I get Dream Tokens? I have to complete goals and quests while dreaming. Lucidity is optional, but I do have to be physically asleep (no "my liminal self is dreaming" daydreams). What's this thread? It's a progress report for lucid dreaming, as well as for dream incubation and the development of this world (these worlds?). It's a bit silly to call it "Quest for the Liminal World" when I'm perfectly capable of accessing it while awake, but I wanted a catchy title. Hey, it's my quest to reach it in a lucid dream and discover more of it. This thread is not a dream journal; I already post my dream journal to LD4all (requires account to view) and DreamViews (no login required). I'll share relevant or particularly interesting dreams here. Where am I at now? My dream recall isn't bad. I recall dreams nearly every night, but they're often short or fragmented. I lucid dream sometimes, but not regularly. It's been over two weeks since my last one. My dream control is poor. I've never successfully incubated a dream (that is, decided what to dream about in advance and then dreamt about it). It's rare that my tulpas appear in my dreams, but Kayleigh (@KayKay) usually knows we're dreaming if she's there. I don't think Alex has ever been aware in a dream. (Have they never appeared together in a dream? I might have to check old dream journal entries...) I keep a dream journal and do reality checks throughout the day. I've been bouncing around between ideas/techniques in the few weeks since I started seriously trying to lucid dream again, but the routine I think I'll settle for is: Morning: Dream journal Daytime/evening: Sporadic reality checks, Interdimensional Spot the Difference, and meditation (visualizing myself in my liminal room, then alternating between practicing SSILD sensory cycling and breathing with affirmations) Bedtime: (not sure yet, might tailor to nightly goals) During nighttime awakenings: MILD, not repeated, followed by SSILD until I fall back asleep Why am I posting this? I've been hesitant to post too much about lucid dreaming in my PR, since it's only tangential to tulpamancy. Then I found @Luminesce's dreaming thread, binge-read the first 20 pages, and got inspired. Dreaming progress reports are a thing? (Also, I find it inspiring how long his system kept up posting daily updates despite struggling with executive dysfunction and often not making satisfactory progress. I also struggle with executive dysfunction, and I'm awful with consistency, but if they could post daily, I can at least be semi-consistent, right?) Yes, I say "semi-consistent" because I want this to keep me accountable and motivated, but I'm not going to stay motivated if it feels like a chore. Heck, the reason this is all so gamified is because that's fuel for motivation. Also, I won't post on Fridays. That's our sabbath. Kick me if you see me online, please. Anyway, hopefully we'll have some cool stories to share soon enough!

Toast/j Nightfall too. That's really cool! 😁

i feel the spiritual hand of yoko shimomura guide me as a work on my arrangement of dearly beloved. music is amazing

Imagine thinking you can steal last postingness from me at European hours Also I absolutely despise working outdoors, I hate bugs and it's full of them, especially at night I always shower thoroughly as soon as I get home and still feel them on me *angry frog noises*
-
Remy: POST! Idk what to say other than stealing someones current last post spot
-
I like it! 😊 Weird given literally everything in Capsule Corp. lol. Hehe, I just have things are very me. 😁 All of them are good movies and I'm pretty sure Linda doesn't have a favorite. Good luck! 😊 I know you can do it!

oh, i see i guess it is just the F5 tornadoes that flatten neighorhoods or whatever (or maybe they don't either and tornadoes are overrated. idk how common the bigger Fs are) oh yeah. suddenly reminded of some really esoteric filler nobody talks about. fake namek. in Z filler, krillin bulma and gohan land on a planet they mistake for namek before they reach the real namek, and it has tornadoes that last hundreds of years. that'd be wild. the uncanny degree i've never seen it be mentioned anywhere feels so strange, knowing i'd only know it because of our system having watched the show a few times. it feels almost 30% as disturbing as when miri mentioned barnyard i can find an esoteric filler memory that is 43% disturbing by remembering inoshikacho no not that one the one from dragonball someone needs to study how dragonball had colored photography and m16s 300 years ago in like age 400 something, but in the early half of age 700 world war 2 era weapons seem very widespread and they don't have cell phones except maybe the big fat brick ones until about the buu saga that have flip phones, and then a couple years after the buu saga they have smart phones and ipads, then in GT like 15 years later society has returned to wired landlines (the last two are just because gt was made in the 90s and Super was made in the 2010s and they aren't the same continuity, but it's the dragonball anime alone that you can see 300 years of the world having the same 20th century guns lol how tf is bulma such a boomer in the buu saga she doesn't have a cell phone btw, i think it was videl the only one who had one on her lol i'm unsure how to feel about a show sorta implanting IRL tech advancements. i guess they want it to be more relatable, but it's such whiplash it is borderline retconning goten and trunks into ipad kids because a 1 or 2 year time gap in the story was a 20 year gap in real life wonder if star wars does that. star wars was made in the 70s, so they have starfaring space ships, but their computers have the graphical capabilities of an atari. they've utterly mastered the manipulation of physics and are like a type 3 civilization or something, but then they'll bust out some ham radio type thing or something to communicate. idk if newer star wars stuff has things that look like smart phones just because we have those now, or computers that aren't using low polygon original starfox graphics for models -fighter pilot in a spacecraft that can jump across star systems in mere moments, and fire torpedos with an energy yield greater than hydrogen bombs- -busts out the fucking virtual boy to lock onto things- oh, interesting i'm not sure which one is my favorite. hmmmmmmm maybe, if i can stop being a chud that doesn't finish anything i start lol true

Probably my favorite movie for a number of reasons and dispite a few. (Turles knows what he did.) Yeah, it looks really cool! Sounds about right. That was put together. 😁 That would probably be great. 😁 I don't think any of us can speak as eloquently as he does though. I'm glad to see you write so much! 😊 I'd love to see that written out someday. 😁 Also, I feel like you need to make a drawing like that meme. It just kinda matches up a little too well in my opinion, lol. Oh! Cool! 😁 I wonder if you two were anywhere nearby, lol. Oh, that's pretty interesting! 😁
