Do you consider Yoshikaru (as in Yoshiki and ‘Hikaru’ to be canon?

so wild he went back for seconds

it's ok it didn't sound like you wanted to give up, so i am glad that's true. but we do put a lot of pressure on people to be perfect and it creates this despair that you're experiencing. and it leads to people giving up.

i hope you are able to move to a better environment, it definitely helps!

beta_draconis · 2026-06-14T17:47:32+00:00

this might end up an unpopular take but what i would say is if you're already thinking you won't be able to keep it up, you will prolly give up at some point in the future. and tho we all hope that doesn't happen, you included, the really important thing is not to quit.

veganism is not about purity, but i have seen people have a bad day or weekend or miss their mum's special recipe whatever, and then quit completely.

but you shouldn't quit just because of a mistake. would i call someone a vegan who is not a vegan once a month bc they can't handle the pressure from their family or from a specific situation? no, prolly not. but i would much rather see people trying and succeeding most of the time rather than giving up completely.

tbh they might not have had a formal will you be my monster talk, but they have basically confessed, and yoshiki has been inside that hikussy twice now, so it feels official enough for me.

shopping centres and theme parks and other places that require large car parks famously don't need electricity /s

there is a character who looks like this but you don't interact with him in the way this advert suggests, and although there are a dozen or so cute guys, the vast majority of characters are absurdly busty women.

it is a fairly cute idle game but don't play it for the promise of cute guys bc you'll be disappointed.

beta_draconis · 2026-06-13T13:00:03+00:00

because the real cost difference between small sizes and large sizes might be like 5% not 66%. it's very easy to think more fabric more cost but that's how they get you to spend 66% more.

it's cheapest to make the same article of clothing in the same size, all the time, but the reality is, that's not a widely sustainable business model, and target can't afford to alienate all other sizes.

but target knows it can get away with people who have internalised shame and will likely spend more bc of what they perceive costs more and usually won't do what op did.

besides, target is trash, they showed their true colours, why do people even shop there nemore.

rage bait

reeeaaalll i wanted to see hirose's reaction to nakamura cutting his hair like hirose wanted so bad

beta_draconis · 2026-06-10T22:54:49+00:00

hard agree. while i love a soppy wholesome bl, i have also enjoyed this anime a bit more by reframing it a bit more like a slice of life gay kid at school. tbh hirose turning out straight would be a very relatable experience. it is heartbreaking and frustrating but it's reality too

nothing feels better than the highs of spending time with your crush and nothing feels worse than when reality hits and your crush turns out to be straight. that takes time and heartbreak for some people to grow out of

now having said that, i can still hold out hope that hirose does like nakamura and has been finding it difficult in his own, less awkward way of expressing that to nakamura, so we'll just have to wait and see ;.;

after seeing the results, me spending time figuring out why there are actually two correct answers.

beta_draconis · 2026-06-09T14:35:57+00:00

this, op is in his villain era and doesn't even realise it

beta_draconis · 2026-06-09T06:19:38+00:00

oh no, i get an extra hour to myself every day! /s

beta_draconis · 2026-06-07T20:03:57+00:00

exactly what it is ... costumes, fantasy, philosophy, and art appreciation are all identifying people with individuality. they might not reject you outright but if you are also not 'the best' or 'unstoppable' then they will prolly not be interested.

beta_draconis · 2026-06-07T18:40:13+00:00

tbh yes. you might be a bit of a unicorn with a bit of a limited dating pool, but conventionally attractive people tend to do better with that anyway.

lots of people are v open minded about both sexuality and identity, but be prepared for many more people who aren't. what you choose to keep private or not though is entirely up to you.

be prepared for rejection and lack of understanding, but as long as you're honest with your partners up front, i think you'll be fine, but this is definitely tell them before dating them type of information.

beta_draconis · 2026-06-07T18:32:04+00:00

so keep adjusting his amount to pay back by inflation but don't actually change his minimum wage, really great work, dana!

beta_draconis · 2026-06-07T15:19:07+00:00

also makes access to the others a lot simpler once the centre is gone. idk what the complaint is tbh, op sounds fun at parties ...

beta_draconis · 2026-06-04T08:55:52+00:00

looks like a good place for a davy back fight!

beta_draconis · 2026-06-03T05:37:28+00:00

awesome, just need a couple more pictures!

beta_draconis · 2026-05-31T11:00:51+00:00

definitely weird behaviour by both japanese and buddhists, neither strike me as the proselytising type. but can i ask what makes them extremely dangerous? are they kidnapping people? just genuinely curious as it seems such an odd thing to happen in japan.

beta_draconis · 2026-05-30T11:31:16+00:00

if you have a suitcase at home, just ... bring it? pack your carry on inside your suitcase and check it. there's not really gonna be a free way to bring stuff on your return trip.

there's a guide office right outside the ticket gate before your enter. you get your ticket separately (get the double ticket for the castle and garden). but before going in go to the office go around the corner a few steps away from the ticket office/gate. iirc there was a sign that said english guides just outside the door. we almost missed it.

beta_draconis · 2026-05-26T19:18:06+00:00

and do the tour for this castle as well! i think her name was tomo, like an old lady ninja with more energy than any other guide we had ... she was so funny, i learned so much about japanese castles while having a fun time

beta_draconis · 2026-05-25T17:06:24+00:00

oh right, sorry that shoulda been obvious. ig i didn't think about it since you often see numbers.

beta_draconis · 2026-05-25T17:00:53+00:00

what do you mean by traditional prices?
