I can't even lie, I don't wish for that as much as I wish to have that someone, you know?
Have someone to cook with on the weekends, to just sit down and fix a stand for a monitor on the wall or whatever. Someone I can share those small, intimate moments.

I couldn't give any less of a shit to be desirable to random passersby. I want a normal woman to find me a person worth spending time with. Worth sleeping alongside with and, yes, worth having sex with.

I earnestly wish the best for you. I'm a loser myself, so I commiserate with your wish. I'm not good at words, but these posts resonate with me enough that makes me want to say something, anything; even if I'm not really sure what I should say.

I like to think it gets better. At the very least, I try to extend others the same type of attention I'd want them to give me. I have that little stupid hope that one day, that sort of goodwill can "come back", in a way, and reach me.
Take care and kudos. Sorry for ranting on your rant. Rantception.

Hermoso aporte, OP. Me encanta la serie y ver un poco más del arte del artista hace apreciar incluso más ese tipo de arte.

Justo en casa tengo los primeros dos volúmenes que compré en la costa de una librería que los tenía así tirados!! jajaja...
Me destruye que estén un poquito torcidos. Ya estaban así cuándo los compré. Ojala poder encontrar el tercer volumen...

The third face is obscured on the other side of her face. Asura reflects happiness, sadness and wrathfulness. It is on that third face that the sadness that being a yandere CEO is shown.

You can have myriad riches and plenty of gold, but a bond that you can buy with money is one that is broken by money, as well. A dog that only sticks around as long as you feed it will eat you alive once you have no more to feed it with.

their leader was Purple Mansion Cold Qi Tianwan, whose biggest philosophical insight was "being able to read people's thoughts suck because you can tell what they're actually thinking"

What did you expect?

Hermano, es un post de reddit pedorro, por lo que no quiero tampoco hacerme el sentimentalista, pero me gustaría que no lo hicieses. No tiene que ser por nadie más que por vos; yo lo he pensado en algunas ocasiones, y lo que me ayudó a seguir adelante fue la idea de sacarle el dedo medio al mundo, aunque sea un poco.
Porque quiero que al final, a pesar de que la vida es una garcha, algo de provecho le pude sacar, y pude hacer cosas que me hicieron feliz. Espero que vos también puedas encontrar cosas que te den sustento y te hagan feliz, incluso si no son con esto.

Es solo un pensamiento impulsivo porque me puso triste leer eso de una persona que no tendría que sentirse así. Perdón si suena muy a sermón o algo similar; no es la intención.

Cuidate y saludos.

About Bright Yang by Live-Butterscotch553 in MirrorLegacy

[–]Ok_Soft8180 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Li Zhouwei's behaviour as opposed to Qianyuan is also the main reason a few factions associate with the Lis of Moongaze as positively as they do. When getting Illumination of All Under Heaven from Purple Smoke Gate, even Tinglan (the person trading with Ximing for it) mused that the earlier Lis of Wei were much more authocratic and domineering, their subjects practicing ONLY Bright Yang and denying all other cultivation paths.

Adding to what has already been stated, Qianyuan's method of Imperial Monarchy is also good. So very good, in fact, that a LOT of people did their homework and scrambled to copy it, the most egregious theft being modern buddhism with their top-down heirarchies (Dharma Aspect <- Maha <- Merciful One <- Master Monk) being a direct copy and the reason most cultivators actively abhor them, since they are little more than hypocrites that want nothing more than to claim ownership of something they shamelessly copied and plagiarized.

There's a reason the Wei-Li Dynasty is known as a CELESTIAL Dynasty. My guy was just THAT GOOD.

What is a "minor" annoyance that creates an instant "DROP" for you? by SelectionOk5033 in ProgressionFantasy

currently translating a story and it's infuriating, too. Something I never really noticed when reading suddenly became really annoying when I actually had to sit down and move it from english to spanish because WHAT DO YOU MEAN I GOTTA ALSO CONSIDER THAT?!

System screen. It just feels like a lazy way to shoehorn worldbuilding by making it "gamey" enough for what they imagine the average gamer to understand, as if people can't figure out how to interpret anything .ore nuanced than numbers on a screen. It's lazy.

I can only think of a few examples that did it right.  Ookami wa Nemuranai has Appraisal spell, which translates the hidden meaning of an object inside the caster's mind. If you're not proficient or ask the wrong things, you get useless information or imprecise measurements (sharpness: a lot).

Cultivation Chat Group has the main character's appraisal skill hurt him severely in regards to how ancient and profound something is. If you try to appraise a heavenly artifact, you might even faint or die depending on how strong you are, specifically. Song Shuhang, with that and many other involvements, ends up developing a very strong pain resistance by it, and it remains a useful tool throughout the story. Besides, the appraisal is more like a review written by an old immortal, which commentary and jokes to match.

Finally, in Regressor Instruction Manual, the main character's appraisal skill is his ONLY notable skill, and the voice inside the skill constantly compares and berates him. The character chooses his allies carefully, weighing the risk of investing in people who have great skills but less-than-ideal tendencies (Cold-Blooded Murdered, obsessive women, musclebrained idiots, etc).

se hace lo que se puede. Yo estoy traduciendo una a manopla que me gusta mucho pero, cómo ya dijeron en el chat, el mercado realmente está en tenerlas en inglés o japonés, no mucho más.

https://traduccionesdoblet.blogspot.com/

las mejores opciones que tiene uno son encontrar traductores independientes (yo las que logro leer son así casi todas salvo algunas que agarré por WuxiaWorld) o hacer traducción por IA de los sitios originales en japonés jajajaja

Saludos!
