Language changes over time.
>>482
Yes. Nobody says flaming anymore. Fewer people say trolling. More and more people are saying larping, at least on political twitter circles.
>>483
That's the old and outdated definition. Now is means pretending to have different political views, or pretending that you're an activist or something. Larping is a suitable term for this, since traditional larping is embarrassing and lame, and people are implying that political posers are also embarrassing and lame.

If your text-on-image joke needs your @ watermark on it, your comedy is not distinct enough anyway. I can tell you're not getting reach, ain't nobody bothering to type that shit in. Why is it that the comedians that most normies can name tend to have jokes that sound like only they could've said it? You, attempting to break in, dealing with an Internet full of hecklers, fucking know the answer better than I do.

there are some people on social media whose claim to fame is replying to every tweet that a famous person makes

if someone has a million twitter followers, and you reply to every tweet they make (assuming they don't block you), it's trivial to get 10k+ followers with no real effort, even when you're a nobody, just as long as you parrot opinions that are popular by people who follow the more popular person's account (though some people hatefollow instead of following people they like)

this reminds me of those kinds of fish that cling to bigger fish, like how sharks have little feeder fishes stuck to them

If it is that important to you, try to structure every free moment and space around you towards it. That may mean dedicating some useful desk space or something that you'll refuse to use until you're satisfied with your progress.

Willpower is a limited resource, so don't be hard on yourself any time you fail. It can be better to outsource that mental disapproval to someone you really respect (preferably a dead philosopher or someone you don't actually know) that you imagine standing around giving you one of those pursed-lip neutral looks when you're not doing it right, and smiling when you are.

I find it helped my posture considerably to focus on it as part of meditation and during breaks in my work (between rounds of a game, any time I alt-tab, taking eye breaks, drinking water, running up and down the stairs, just build those associations). I find it is hard to intentionally forget bad habits but easy to try (and fail) a new one, so I figure you pretty much gotta be constantly making it so a clusterfuck of good/new habits don't leave any time for the old programming. You gotta see failure as the price of success, and sometimes to envision the guy who did this every day for months/years vs. the guy who didn't.

How come people decided that a numbered list is the best format for writing? Whatever happened to actual journalism?

535 Name: (*゚ー゚) : 1993-09-9143 02:23

"actual journalism" was never a thing, it's always been a clique of simpletons attaching way too much weight to their own opinions and doing whatever it takes to attract eyeballs

Also, did we finally remove "twitter" from the list of banned words on 4-ch? It used to refuse any post that even contained the word even if it was "twitter sux lol".

I lost a lot of passion for weeb shit when I picked up Japanese language study to become the uberweeb. Not only did I lose the time, so much of it converted to cheaply produced moe stuff (by proportion) around the same time.

I'm not sure what to make of it that a "lost decade" and the death of Tezuka seem to have been less devastating to the prevalence of this sort of quality that once drew in that tired 40-something guy who owns the corner anime shop than a trend that includes a general move to cheaper production methods (not to point fingers at pirates or quality of animators or the specific animation techniques or finances of production; if there is a desire to oversimplify, it's sufficient to note that the already modest money that used to be in it basically dried up and no gitting gud attempted so far has fixed that).

I'm not even sure this nostalgia is entirely off base, when you have no less than 3D anime pioneer Ichiro Itano expressing a little concern that the younger generation seems reticent to attempt the hard shit and exceed the accomplishments of their idols, as if somehow a strong majority of otaku stopped using their status as social outcasts to only care about fucken good animu.

Perhaps it's also worse than worthless posting my shitty popular opinion, but I still did it; it's not like you can escape criticism even if you say nothing.

"money doesn't make you happy" said the person who doesn't realize how awful being poor is because they have enough to pay the bills and they even have money saved up and disposable income

"just work hard and get a better job" said the person who got a cushy job due to nepotism

"being homeless must be easy, it'd be nice to have nothing to do" said the idiot who doesn't realize how difficult homelessness is and how a lot of homeless people actually have jobs

"poor people are poor because we can't all be doctors" said the person who grew up in an area with adequate funding for public education and who doesn't realize how public infrastructure dictates how successful someone will be

"I'm smarter and more talented and that's why I deserve to make more than other people" said the person whose parents paid for their books and tutors and college tuition while other people had to drop out to help their parents make ends meet
