I've just woken up, and I had some interesting dreams, so I'll post about them while I remember them.
In the first one, I was on a long train ride to some place, and I had my dogs with me (this was nice because they died a while ago). Chirico Cuvie (pic related) was also my dog somehow. I looked out the window and was pleased by the way the landscape went by. I went on 22chan and posted about how this amused me, then I wrote about how strange it was that I regarded the future with what could only be called nostalgia.
In another dream, I was at some nondescript mall restaurant resembling Dairy Queen with one of my brothers. He ordered a meal which had the option of ordering a crepe with it, and he specified that he wanted no crepe. After his order, they held up a crepe and asked if he would like it, saying they would throw it away if he didn't. This angered him somewhat because it was a rather transparent ploy to make him buy the crepe so they wouldn't waste the food. He bought it for that reason, and then they told him that if you buy a meal with a crepe, you pay the price of the meal and the crepe plus an extra dollar. He was PISSED, and he told the lady behind the counter what he thought of that, then I went to the next dream.
I was in a neighborhood in some location I didn't recognize with little grass and a lot of direct sunlight. There was a swing made out of a door tied to a tree. It was near a body of water, but when I tried it, I could not get it to swing far enough to put me in the water, so I gave up. I walked around the neighborhood and witnessed an altercation with the police. I forget the issue but I think they were basically being control freaks over some nonsense law. Someone used a grappling hook on a nearby house, but then didn't actually climb it and instead launched another hook at the cops while they were distracted. It pierced one of their eyes. He fell over and decayed at an alarming rate, and I decided to leave because it was a little disturbing and I didn't want to get in trouble.
Sometime later, I was in some kind of supermarket with an old fren of mine. It was good to see him because we haven't met in a while. We were trying to set up a tabletop RPG campaign, so I went to purchase Pocky. I only had 25 cents, and I discovered that the only Pocky they were selling for that price was used Pocky, which I did not purchase because thPost too long. Click here to view the full text.

Had a funny one like a month ago I've been meaning to post.

I was at some conference attending a talk about the history of some open source project. When the first talk was over, the creator of 2hu came on stage, but it wasn't ZUN, but rather some old guy looking like Ken Tompson or Denis Ritchie.
At that point my mom, who was sitting next to me, gets up to leave the room because "oh, its your animu stuff", but before she is out of the room, the guy plays some lewd cutscene from what looks like a PC-98 eroge, making me feel rather awkward.
Some time later, we all get on a train and ride it through a city of low-poly commieblocks with low-res textures.
The train keeps accelerating, and eventually takes off to the skies.
Suddenly the train is tightly packed with people, and i realize that i haven't showered in a week, however the people around me don't seem to notice, despite being mere inches away.
Then i am on the Internets and post about the dream on 22chan (while still dreaming).

Lads its caturday!

I just came to this bread to post that letter. It's fucking wild lol, like more insane than usual for him. Full on psychosis shid.
I think people should leave his mom alone, poor lady's literally losing her mind.

>>12267
He probably acting bonkers as a cope for his current shid life situation.

I got pizza last night too. The pizza was pretty nice to have in the midst of a busy day.

The 70s must've been wild.

>>12257
In many ways, it was, and in other ways, it wasn't. For example, just look at the music that was popular in the 70s.

Well, there's a lot of coins (or pentacles) cards. Coins are related to wealth, possession, material and success. I don't know your situation in your life so it's a bit difficult to understand for me.

>Past
Two of coins:
Life's imbalance is a curious strength. Accept that everything has its time and place. Keep it all together by not paying too much attention to one thing.

>present
Ace of coins:
When you see a tantalizing opportunity, take it. This card promises great material reward for projects undertaken, particularly if they're something novel or unexplored.

>Future
King of swords:
It takes a great man not just to fight evil, but to subsume it, divert it, and use it for good. Realism and ingenuity are your greatest weapons, don't let the good sense become clouded with emotions. The answer may be simpler than you think.

>Goal
The hierophant:
He invites us to conform, to immerse ourselves in a long-term, man-made system. Be it through education, employment, or religion. Is it worth it? Only you can decide.

>Subconscious self
Nine of coins:
After sacrificing and devoting yourself to a single purpose, you can afford the luxuries that come with. Enjoy it. There will come a time when you are tested and tried. Retain your sense of priority and discipline, and you will be prepared.

>Danger means "the possibility of harm or death to someone"
theres always a possibility that youre going to be harmed or killed. if danger means the possibility of harm then there hasnt been a single point in time when someone hasnt been in danger.
>I'm telling you that I will kill you, then I'm the cause of the danger + the messenger
ok but who has lost anything?
>Danger is not just a feeling though. Being in danger is closer to pain than it is to happiness/sadness.
yes danger is a thing and not just a feeling, but how does this relate to right and wrong?

>>12238
>theres always a possibility that youre going to be harmed or killed. if danger means the possibility of harm then there hasnt been a single point in time when someone hasnt been in danger.
Yes, and? Surely you do realize that there are various amounts of danger one can be exposed to, right?
>ok but who has lost anything?
The person threatened has lost safety. Safety being low danger in the short term
>yes danger is a thing and not just a feeling, but how does this relate to right and wrong?
You were claiming danger doesn't mean jack shid, because it's basically just a feeling. I told you that's not true, in my opinion

>>12239
>The person threatened has lost safety
no they havent, if youre threatened you just feel unsafe, or are made aware of the fact that you arent safe.
>Safety being low danger in the short term
how high does the likelihood of harm occurring need to be for a situation to be considered dangerous? 30%? 50%? if a probability is the difference between safety and danger then its up to personal interpretation to decide whats dangerous or not. right and wrong does not work in numbers or probabilities, something either is or it isnt.

I ate another snack. This one was based on the Arizona green tea beverages, which I drink a lot of, so when I saw that there was a gummy fruit snack of it, I had to pick it up. It's a pretty high quality snack. At first, I thought it was too sweet to properly resemble the beverage, but then as I kept eating them, the flavors mixed into something remarkably similar to the actual drink. I almost felt like I had just taken a sip of one. So then I checked the ingredients, and they actually have a bunch of the same stuff in them. There's even green tea extract in these things, so it gets the subtle flavor just right. The gummy snacks themselves are in two shapes: the Arizona logo, and a little can of Arizona. They both are impressive in their detail, with the can even having legible text on it. This is unexpectedly good for a simple tie-in, and I would recommend it to you guys if you can find it.

Good post. I've watched a few of Hitchcock's films but I haven't seen that many films from the 40s and 50s. Two of my favorites are from that period, though. It's A Wonderful Life and Rope.
I think Rope is very underrated, James Stewart didn't even like it. The camerawork is amazing. The actors are also all great, good chemistry between them and fantastic performances, especially from Joan Chandler. I've also seen Vertigo but it was a long time ago, I can't really remember anything about it other than I thought it was good. I think it's very interesting to watch older films and see what life was like at that time.
I haven't seen The Thing from Another World but I've seen John Carpenter's The Thing many times. That's one of my favorite movies. Did you know it was critically panned when it was released back in 1982? Goes to show that film critics are full of shid, they just pander to the masses.

I watched First Reformed yesterday. It's directed by Paul Schrader, he wrote screenplays for a couple of Scorsese's films. He's a very cold director and it shows in First Reformed. It's a great movie.
The plot centers around an American priest who struggles to keep faith in a deteriorating world where evil seems to triumph over good. The style of the film is very bleak. The framing of every shot seems calculated, it's a very well made film. I wanted to say it's beautiful but that's not the right word for First Reformed. It's something more impactful and awe-inspiring. Paul Schrader has come a long way as a filmmaker. First Reformed is the work of an experienced man who knows the ins and outs of film.
Another thing I found interesting is how the movie deals with faith in the modern world. How do you keep faith when the world around you seems to be moving away from it? Nothing is sacred anymore, using the name of the lord in vain no longer deserves punishment and church service has become a pastime. Does anyone truly believe in God anymore when modern scientific logic implies he cannot and does not exist? And what of all the evil in the world? Those who spread hate and fear and trample upon His creation, where is the judgement for these people? Does God allow evil to triumph? Or does God love us so much that he allows us to be free, even if we use that freedom to cause harm?

Sometimes i ask myself if the air was breathable for us back to the paleolithic

Nah, because I know that people in the past felt the exact same way, and a lot of the time when people did try to bring back the glory days, a lot people's lives either got shidtier or cut short. Though if I have to choose, I'll choose 80s because bbs culture :)

I sort of do. It feels like there's a lot of chaos in our time. A lot of stress. I think people aren't valued as much as they were before. I think the same can be said about everyday stuff. You can get pretty much everything with a click of a button. Sitting on your ass all day while people deliver food and necessities to your house is a reality. Everything's done online. It feels like there's less requirement for other people in modern lives.
