Merry Christmas, /late/!
Your neighbour,
/agdg/.

Guessing you've already read the other stuff by that author?

>>3388
No, but I started Inside Mari. It's a shame I didn't know about this author before.

Figured that since this thread is for anime-related stuff, maybe discuss visual novels as well? 
What are you reading, /late/non? 
I'm almost done with Subahibi and reading the second episode of Umineko.

>>3392
Better late than never :)

>>3392
Finished Inside Mary. God, I love that coming out of age feeling in Shuzo Oshimi's manga. This longing is difficult to convey in words. Probably gonna be reading more of his stuff.

>>3384
>IRL friends are good for normie stuff
That's my issue. I'm too much of an autist to be into that.

>>3394
you tell me then, wikipedia poster, what affection can we build with a screen? enlighten me about the noble feelings (you know, what makes a real friendship possible) present in this artificial connection.

>>3398
You do not and can not feel affection for anything except what you imagine as being deserving of it. Real people are 3D animated illusions, while internet people are 2D static illusion, in terms of affection there is very little difference, because affection does not relies on any particular geometrical forms, but on perception itself. Real people are thus no more genuine than virtual people and are only more satisfying because that's what mother nature made us to be.
>noble feelings
More like, noble burgers. Nobility isn't something that can be said about most people and affection itself cannot be noble, nor can any other feeling. Nobility is a property of will, and will has no emotion, because will is the governor of mind.

It used to be a lot easier to make friends irl for me. Recently I have just met people that I've needed to escape from. I usually have more than enough people around my life, no matter where I am, to hang out with even though I've moved a lot. But now I'm in a rural area. My friends here all usually game or discord, which I don't. But they've also brought their online friends into real life. They're just mainly online together which makes it tougher to be irl.

My closest thing to online friends would be my moots but it's not like we have overlapping hobbies. Im realizing I have really bad trust issues so even begining to interact with people I can't know in person just has never happened. I never liked the imbalance of interacting with people I knew, more online than irl, which I'm realizing made keeping friends difficult.  Then there's relationship issues thrown in. 
I just don't understand how to make any friends in the middle of nowhere, or how to move again. Most of my hobbies have been irl. So now Im thinking about trying to be a little more proficient in some area of digital creation, or get money to get into digital  music. I assume there's a possibility to make online friends within online communities but honestly it's extremely difficult for me to get over my bias against any kind of digital visual art. Actual artist cooperatives in my region are old ladies and Sunday painters. I've always had the chance to get into music production and just spinning tracks but i

what nonsense, strangers online should not be considered friendships simply because a (non-mutual) relationship of agreeableness or needs is nothing more than an enjoyment, in life the friendship of delusion that consists in reciprocal good wishes without effect is foolish. therefore, a "friendship does not always exist where i love another and he loves me; for i shall not, on that account, simply disclose my secrets to him; and i am not convinced, either, that he will sacrifice something for my sake - we have to be able to assume that his efforts on his own behalf will be made also for us, and ours for his; but that is a great deal to expect, and so friends are few - if i multiply friends, i diminish friendship".

you can't build something this deep with any stranger over the screen, and believing that you can will only serve to isolate and distance you from what really matters (that is, what's around you). friendship is complex, it will require men personally with a sublime frame of mind to flourish properly and principles to be maintained, qualities rare in our current era and that will never be present in any artificial relationship, much less one over the web.

another 12 hour shift tomorrow. theoretically i should sleep but in reality i listen to music and browse /late/ to vent huh

I was lying outside at night. A moth-like creature kept landing on my hand. Was it simply investigating or did it like the cold sweat on my palm? I was cautious. I tried to be kind to it but at the same time I was expecting it to bite me. Contradictions.

>>3386
That was probably Grlshiq. Don't worry about them, they come here time and again. Were probably just probing your informational space. They're generally peaceful unless you're one of Qliprhsa (knowingly or not).

Speaking of moths, interestingly enough, I don't have a mosquito net, have my lights turned on, and no I do not have any flies in my room. That's just strange. The previous summer I was having a fun time getting rid of them. Now there's just nothing. Is this the end of the world? Nah, I'm happy I don't get anything trying to wriggle into my nose holes while I dream about my power fantasies.

It's been so long I almost forgot about this place. Just moved in with a new roommate quitting my shitty dead end job and moving states. Can't wait to stay up late there I will miss the abandoned buildings here. Oh well.

>>3386
Probably had some scent on your palm, tbh.

>>3390
Glad you made your way back here. Hope you enjoy your new state.

please refrain from generating this type of content, there is enough of that already out there
thank you

>>1803
it's more like a parody of it tho

after being here awhile after the site shutdown and i think i've lost interest in /late/ a little bit
seems like this place absorbed some of trashchans culture instead of developing its own over time

>>3381
That's not surprising considering it's not on its own domain anymore.

>>3381
I'll admit, came here for the migration, but mostly pop in from the overboard anymore. Summer nights are still my favorite and I'll definitely pop in when it's too hot to sleep -_-!

but also alot of the previous work from Kristoffer Zetterstrand (he also did the first batch of paintings in minecraft which is a pretty cool detail)

I don't believe in all of these, but I think they're interesting:
All of the significant figures of the Civil Rights Era were assassinated as a cleanup operation to move on to cults and serial killers, then religious fundamentalists, then teens. The pattern before this was with Southern revivalists, bandits, and organized criminals, in that order. This may go all the way back to Federalists versus Anti-Federalists or even Patriots versus Loyalists.

Quantum physics is developed and the ideas of alternate dimensions and time travel are propagated as a form of escapism because physics to that point indicated assured outcomes for every event, meaning determinism is correct and free will doesn't exist across time.

"Human" is an umbrella term used to describe chimeras of species of hominids. Some of these chimeras, such as the San, reached dead ends in concepts as simple as self awareness.

The prominence of cancer as a cause of death is due to both environmental pollution and the adoption of sedentary lifestyles, which themselves promote environmental pollution. The roots of cancer causing issues aren't tackled because cancer research is heavily tied to life extension research.

You could give yourself any mental illness. Many of the MK projects were meant to determine how people gained mental illnesses and what was required to induce them. People don't focus on how much worse the MK programs were in Canada after they were revealed in the US and UK.

Francis E. Dec's ramblings about gangster computer gods were banal criticisms against the US government and post-WW2 world order.

Jesus is an amalgam of figures just as Judaism is an amalgam of religions, but the god of both testaments is the same. He was an inevitable figure as Western religions pushed toward centralization, and similar figures existed beforehand but failed to gain wide audiences. Peter and Paul are two figures who were forcibly reconciled to maintain a Christian church.

Something about this looks fake, but I can't put my finger on it

>>1863
It would also explain why corn fields are creepy, and inspire many horror stories

I think that's basically true. Different modern human populations have ancestry from different types of archaic hominins, like neanderthals, Denisovans, and whatever the extinct mystery species is that West Africans have been found to have DNA from.

I've been reading through Jesus from Outer Space by Richard Carrier and think he makes a pretty convincing case for Jesus mythicism, which is an idea I would have thought was ridiculous at one point. I think there's a good chance the figure of Jesus ben Ananias served as a rough template for the character in the Gospels, but as far as I know that's about the closest person there was to a historical Jesus based on the surviving evidence we have.

As it is written, ‘There is none righteous, no, not one.' For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God. For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.

>That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed. For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord over all is rich unto all that call upon him. - Paul the Apostle, Romans 10:9-13, KJV

>asking science to explain why you see red as red
Wavelengths in light, no supernatural input needed, but I prefer the artists approach in that pigments are the spice of life

>Wavelengths in light, no supernatural input needed, but I prefer the artists approach in that pigments are the spice of life

Lol. I suppose those wavelengths just made themselves all on their own, Anon?  :)

What about the 'stuff' its 'waving' through? Just made itself all by itself, too?

>Wavelengths in light
and why do you see them this way and not another? what makes red look and be experienced like red? your phone camera sees red as just a sequence of bits, but it registers the same waveforms. but you specifically see it as red. why is red red and not green?

NTA but you're touching upon conscience itself, which Science never could graps (and never will)
as the other anon said Science can measure wavelengths, describe them, create them, manipulate them but it will never understand why we perceive 450nm waves as blue or 650nm waves as red

>>3332
It is through God that we can conceive it. A robot cannot contemplate perception. Only God can. This proves his existence. Science is blind. God isn't a man in the sky. God is the movement of universe itself.
