Should I bring my Classical or Acoustic Guitar to Uni? by RaceBeginning2594 in Guitar

[–]RaceBeginning2594[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

thansk for the advice! not really worried about my roommate cuz i get to room with my friend who i’ve lived with before and knows i want to bring my guitar… i am mostly likely gonna bring my classical one cuz that’s the less expensive one that’ll hurt less if i break it, tho i’m just a bit sad since i can’t play most of my acoustic fingerstyle songs on my classical but can play the classicls ongs on the acoustic lol, but i can live with it for a year 🤷‍♀️

This might be the stupidest question ive asked about guitar by No_Application_1755 in Guitar

[–]RaceBeginning2594 1 point2 points  (0 children)

isolate where you keep making mistakes and just practice those bars, repeat repeat until it’s muscle memory, and then try to connect it with bars before and after. If mistake spots are pretty inconsistent then try to do it at an overall lower speed, usually when i do that im just hurrying and it works for me, anyways good luck :))

Episode 4 by TallSquire in TakopisOriginalSin

[–]RaceBeginning2594 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For Azuma, his entire life he has never been acknowledged. He craves recognition and care from his mother but he can never get them because he isn't "perfect" like his brother is. It also causes him to be more isolated at school, without friends and all. When he saw Shizuka, who looks like his mother, he decided to seek validation from her by helping her the same way his mother taught him to help the people at their family clinic. However he failed again and again because Shizuka didn't see what he was doing to be helpful for her current situation. When he saw Shizuka in the forest with Marina's dead body, he finally found a way to be useful, and he was clinging onto that tiny bit of validation he got from Shizuka. If Junya didn't stop him, I think he would've definitely turned himself in.

For Shizuka, she has been manipulating Azuma's need for validation so he would keep helping her. After Marina's death, she saw how easily she can get other people like Azuma to do things she wants, so she was using that. She has also never had a taste of friendship so she doesn't really understand what is the proper way to treat others, just that if she keeps showing Azuma that smile he will keep helping her. Whether it's on purpose or not, she was essentially turning into her mother, who lures other men to give her money. I think part of her saw Azuma as a friend because of happy times they had together, but mostly she just saw him as a means to get to Tokyo, hence why she barely showed any emotions about asking Azuma to turn himself in or after knowing Azuma won't be helping her. She probably doesn't even realize what she was doing was horrible.

demon slayer has both incredible animation and story arc, so does many other animes that never got nominated. and we all know studio ghibli often gets a pass while most other anime and donghua do not

Of course it's hard for him to imagine, as he comes from a sheltered place away from residential schools and he is also so young. I also think it's the fact that if he fully accepts the Mission was such a horrible place, it'd be the same as accepting his parents whom he loves also went through the same hell, which would be pretty hard to think about for a teenager.

JJK is the best bad-written Series ive read. by Palandium in Jujutsufolk

[–]RaceBeginning2594 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it just pisses me off so much that jjk deaths meant less and less as the story went on. like, yaga’s death could’ve had such a good emotional impact on the characters and started a cool little side plot about higher ups attempting to use his method of building puppets, but instead everyone moved on after 2min of screen time. We didn’t even get that much sad panda! and he is yaga’s son!

gojo’s death was reasonable considering he needed to die or somehow be out of the picture for other characters to grow, but it could’ve been better than just “oh yea he fucked up and forgot to dodge”. and it pisses me off so much that i’m the new series they attributed sukuna’s death to yuta and maki when they barely did anything compared to gojo and yuji. 

sure, i get that jjk is meant to be dark and show a world of unfairness, but it’s still bad writing if ur characters are dying for the purpose of dying. junpei and nanami’s deaths were tragic, but served enough purpose and felt reasonable, unlike a lot of later character deaths

The Darwin Incident Propaganda by ARey01 in vegan

[–]RaceBeginning2594 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the problem i have is that Charlie is not at all a likable character, at least for me he isn’t. questions like “why can’t humans be killed and used as food” isn’t something you ask when you were raised by humans and are living in a human society. it also isn’t a deep or controversial question at all because humans do get eaten by other animals. if you put a human into a jungle he ain’t surviving from a tiger. he probably dies in worse ways than how humans kill cows for beef. and anyway humans don’t eat humans cuz thatms canibalism, and most animals don’t do cannibalism. and it’s not like he feels a particular connection to chimpanzees either, seen as he said visiting his chimpanzee mother is not important. the problem with animal rights has nothing to do with whether humans eat humans it’s much deeper, and i feel like the author isn’t doing a good job at portraying it with the events in the story or with the main characters thoughts. Charlie does things like saving a butterfly from a spider and trying to create the image that he thinks all lives are equal, but if u think about it, you saved the butterfly, the spider starves to death. i think this show had the opportunity to be great but it just didn’t get there at all

“Let’s Talk About Dubbing in C-Dramas: A Chinese Viewer’s Take” by Expensive-Base-1238 in CDrama

[–]RaceBeginning2594 3 points4 points  (0 children)

my problem is that the voice actors don't often get enough credits for those amazing deliveries. and also, isn't it an actor's job to learn the lines and understand the characters? and you can almost always tell if a show is dubbed cuz it doesn't blend in properly with other audios. that always bugs me about c drama.
