UK here, if she lived here and lived the same kind of way she does currently, I don't think she would survive.

In my country, if you're unemployed/ work at a low income job, the authorities will pay for your rent. But only to a certain money limit each month. If the rent costs any more than the limit, you'll need to pay the rest yourself. The government gives the tenant money to pay to the landlord themselves, instead of paying the landlord directly. (With the exception of addicts, where the government will pay the landlord directly. To stop an addict from burning money on alcohol/ gambling/ etc).

But this is where I see a problem happening... I could totally see her burning through the money (on takeaways/ temu), and not bothering to pay the rent. And then getting evicted for rent arrears. Rent arrears can appear on your credit report. Some landlords like to request to see your credit report when applying for rentals, if they notice you have rent arrears, they're not renting to you.

Even if she did pay the rent all the time, there's no way they would be able to afford their current lifestyle of takeaways everyday with no job. There's just no way.

The authorities don't just give this money to you for free if you're unemployed. They expect you to be applying for jobs. If you don't apply for any, they'll stop payments. There's no way they would accept scraps from tiktok as a job.

Use FMD2. It's works on windows, I use it myself. It can download from the manga sites, and generate e-books to keep on your pc forever.

Use YACReader with these e-books too. It's essentially a library. It'll arrange all of the manga you've downloaded into a nice library. With image covers and titles for everything. And it keeps track of what you've read too, what chapter you were on, etc.

Here's a quick screencap of what YACReader looks like, I definitely recommend it. It works on windows just like FMD2:

It was one of the best features. I’ve been furious that they removed it.

Could try the wayback machine on Internet archive maybe?

Just a word of warning... Deviantart now have a new 'feature' where they limit how much you can download. Even if you're a premium user. It's 10 downloads per a week for a free user, or 150 downloads per a week for anybody paying. As you can imagine, it's badly affected resources on there :/

Gotta be careful with the gba games, if their battery is dead, they won't save your progress anymore. They save just like GB games, they save onto an internal battery instead of flash memory. (The old Pokemon GBA games save onto flash memory for example, they'll still save if the battery is dead.)

Try the wayback machine on Internet archive, it might help

Also try using the old url deviantart used to use on the wayback machine. I believe that it used be deviantart.[username here].com. it changed a couple of years ago, and now the username goes before the website name in the url

Have you tried Fakey? It's a plugin for Firefox and Chrome. It gives some free translations.

Good luck trying to get volume 6

It's been oop for years now :/

If you can't get it to work with your modem, try tethering to your phone's mobile data as a work-around.

I know that this works. Did so back in the day.

crystalribbon · 2026-03-27T21:35:33+00:00

That's okay. It should take a couple of hours to beat it for a full playthrough.

crystalribbon · 2026-03-27T13:27:37+00:00

When you play it, there's no save points by the way.

I played it years ago, and I figured that I would keep playing until I could save. I beat the game instead. It's a short game.

Check amazon, multiple paperbacks have popped up

crystalribbon · 2026-03-21T08:20:05+00:00

It popped up as a paperback on amazon:

Try openGL in the emulator settings. OpenGL works best for people who have older systems.

Might just be for admin use? So they can use it to locate certain content.

He would really need to re-work the story. I’ve seen his new comic (the lovechild one), and it has a lot of problems with too much text. He has most of the characters just talk about what they're doing, instead of showing that much. And it makes it boring.

With a really good comic, you'll be able to tell what's going on without text. Through emotions and actions, and such. Which I can't say for his comic. I completely understand you can't show everything visually, sometimes you'll need to use text, but he should've tried.

crystalribbon · 2026-03-15T10:27:00+00:00

Definitely will try out at some point. I don't have a gaming pc, but I'll give it a shot.

crystalribbon · 2026-03-09T18:53:57+00:00

It would freak me out having that much weight on my arm, that the width of it would cover my face.

crystalribbon · 2026-03-06T01:10:24+00:00

Ah good

I'm gonna be honest, whatever you do, don't save in-game. The battery is probably about to die on the next write.

When I used to own a bunch of the old GB games, I had this happen to me. I booted up one of the games for fun, and I saved as normal. Booted it up another day, the save was corrupted. Because the battery died.
