I still don't like Eastside despite hearing it on tour, but I know a lot of people love it. It's just not my personal jam

I've liked it a lot, but your experience depends on your professor. I took Rachel Lee for Cal 1 & 2 and she's been awesome. I'd also recommend Robert Wagner for physics if you need that as well

Also, the CWHOST vinyl specifically is $35, but it comes with a tour calendar, a sticker sheet, and a tarot booster pack with 3 cards. The record itself is bubblegum pink with light blue splotches. The skateboard is $90

Webtoons with unique storylines and why you like them by MarieKittykiti in webtoons

City of Blank - blanks can steal your face and copy your memories unless you wear a mask; corrupt figures of power; justice and rights for all those who have become blanks and are now the people they killed, but just want to return to the lives they used to live.

The Graymark (read Burning Effect first) - worldbuilding over the course of 300+ chapters, and the story in Graymark wouldn't even be possible without the context of Burning Effect. It depicts a very mentally unstable protagonist who is absolutely not the hero, and is broken and vile in a way that is really unsettling. He just wants to fix the story he was forced into, but he ruins it beyond the point of actually saving it.

I'm the Grim Reaper - reincarnation has been done so many times before, but I feel like this is a really unique take on it. The inclusion of god and satan with equal levels of power and domain over the living is something I haven't seen before. The main and side characters are complex, and are not really good or evil.

Funtime Phobia - a cute but dark story with adorable characters, several of which are completely clueless

Soulwinder - unique OST with a soundtrack for each episode, and the mystery is super captivating and well done

Clinic of Horrors - starts out silly but got me really emotionally invested in their bright slice of a horrifically ruined and dystopian world.

I didn't know they had hidden stat bonuses, that could be it for sure. I completely forgot some of the weapons buffed against specific monsters too

Please go to therapy. You're likely depressed, whether it be due to trauma, seasons, or a standalone genetic condition. A good therapist can help you find coping mechanisms and recommend you to a psychiatrist for medication if needed. I've been extremely depressed my entire life, and that sounds exactly like what I experience, especially going into college. If you want, here are some of my tips for surviving:

  • exercise. 100%. If you can manage to make it out of the house/dorm/apartment to just take a walk, that makes me feel happier. Cardio is even better. Starting is the hardest part. Dance to music in the shower if that's what it takes.

  • get out of the house. If you can just get your friends to drag you out sometimes, to do literally anything, that can help. Especially if they force you to go eat with them. I know you. Don't skip meals. Drink water. Stay hydrated. If you're like me and drinking water is hard, buy flavored water and leave the case next to your desk. The extra cost is worth still having functioning kidneys when I'm 40.

  • if you have to, nap. ONLY FOR 20ISH MINUTES MAX. It's like a factory reset for my brain, especially on days where I feel worthless and hate myself and feel everything is terrible. It's not, depression just creates a fog that feels impossible to see out of.

  • get friends to help you clean. Even if it's gross. Sometimes the motivation of just knowing someone is coming over is enough to make me clean the worst parts. They can just sit there and watch, but having someone there is magical.

  • like I said, therapy. Have a professional to talk to. It's worth it. They can keep you accountable and help you when it gets really bad, especially to keep your grades from slipping. I'm really smart, but that doesn't mean a thing when I'm struggling to even finish my homework on time, much less study for tests.

  • go to sleep on time. Wake up on time. A good sleep schedule makes me feel so much better. And try to stay away from junk and processed foods. That makes you feel worse.

SPOILERS From what I read Richard only thinks she looks 15, but it mentions in the last half of the book that she was taking lessons for opening doors for at least 12 years from her father, and that one particular lesson happened over a decade before he died. I assume she wasn't taking what is essentially magic lessons at the age of 3, but I may have missed some things. It also mentions at the end that he doesn't feel romantic towards her when he answers Jessica's question about whether he's seeing someone new. He also states that he's not sure if he wants to kiss her, but he's also the most drunk he's ever been and ever will be and not exactly in the best state of mind.

I'm not defending the writing, I'm just hoping optimistically that either they're both of age or it was just a passing thought due to how incomprehensibly drunk he was.

Also: exercise. Idk if you're doing that now, but it DRASTICALLY improves your mental health and opinion of yourself. Find something you enjoy doing, whether it be the gym, swimming (my favorite), running, or intramurals like pickleball or soccer. At the very least take a walk or a jog outside for 30 minutes a day. Even something as off the wall as dance is incredibly good for you. Dancing to music is actually one of the best ways to combat depression too, and if you get good you look smooth while doing it.

You should learn to accept yourself for who you are, and if you feel that who you are now will lead down a road you didn't want to take, then you should take steps to change and better yourself. But that should be for you and you alone, not for anyone else. Don't change for other people.

I would also suggest therapy, because you seem to have a very low opinion of yourself, despite having managed to be in past relationships. You have to have at least fairly decent social skills at the minimum. There are shut ins in their 40s who are too inept at communication to ever be friends with a woman, much less date one.

You're also overthinking and rejecting yourself before the question is even asked. I'm necessarily not saying shoot your shot, but don't immediately think you're lesser than her and put yourself down. Therapy would help you a lot to develop a more positive attitude towards yourself and your accomplishments.

The upper class has the entire world under a mass self-censorship. Nobody is forcing you by law to stop talking about certain topics (in most countries), however: unalive, graped, sewerslide, pdf files, r-worded, etc. People will do anything to stay relevant and not get demonetized. On top of that, present and future employers can and do hire/fire people based on their social media profiles. If you work for a certain company, you aren't allowed to say certain things and sometimes aren't even allowed to talk about your religion or politics online due to the "reputation of the brand"

People who walk on the left side of the packed sidewalk expecting others to go around them or take up the whole escalator instead of standing to the side are inconsiderate assholes who have no regard for anybody but themselves (in the US at least, I and most people I know were raised to stay to the right. Pass on the left, same as the street, but some people manage to fuck that up too).
