Hey you! Yes, you! You should read "Waiting" by Dazai. Right now. It's a short story, it won't take more than 3 minutes.

English: coronzon.com/pdf/dazai/Da...

You've gotta hand it to them, it is quite impressive they managed to make mtl worse somehow

If you're gonna read AI translated art, you may as well just save yourself the trouble, and read the summary on wikipedia. Soul rotting behaviour.

Problematic age gap between 152 year old vampire and 181 year old ghost of christmas past. Anyways, happy helloween everyone

"The train came out of the long tunnel on the border and there was the snow country."
This is the English translation apparently. It feels very lacking in comparison. But maybe I'm just an English hater as per usual

I'm haven't settled on how I feel about 雪国 yet, but one thing's for certain: this is the best first sentence I've read.
It's impossible to describe how it looms over and tints the rest of the story.

国境の長いトンネルを抜けると雪国であった。

Reading 雪国. It's very fun so far, but it's frustrating to no end, that covid has tanked my reading comprehension so far I constantly worry and check the translation

It sucks cause it has by far the most polished presentation so I really don't wanna switch!

The same thing is true for SF6 as well. Why does it take almost 300 games to get to master with a 65% winrate.
I need whoever designed these system to be tried for treason

1st 29%
2nd 33%
3rd 25%
4th 13%
These are my stats for the gold room, and it still took me almost 100 matches to get to jade. Call me insane, but I don't think I should have had to spend 50+ hours to get promoted

Realising again just how anti-fun Mahjong Soul's ranked mode is
The weight put on 4th avoidance, the leniently grouped rooms, and just how fucking slow you climb makes it feel less like a system designed to match you with players of your skill level, and more like a Sisyphean grind for engagement

Second game in jade room, Daisangen Sekinin Barai Tsumo'd some Saint 3 player for a chill -300 rank points. Mahjong is peak I'm afraid.

misogyny is so fucking lame mannnnn

Run, Melos!
Very good. Very short. Impossible to put down.

Most surprising part for me is that it's actually fun to watch, even if you aren't super into playing it
Except for proplay, that suffers the same issues as overwatch imo

Mahjong soul rank up screen to master.

I hear they're saying I might be the best to ever do it

I know this is the type of take that will get you shot dead in the fgc, but it really would be nice to have more than 6 women to 26 men in a sajam slam

I should rewatch bocchi the rock... It's so peak

I've waited all year for it to be autumn so I could post this again
It's a really old drawing but I still love it

Yeah, exactly! I didn't get anywhere though, that was the second one lmao. I really did love Wuthering Heights too!! I just stopped picking it up for some reason...
It's probably because my English kind of peaks at conversational level, so anything more difficult feels hard to justify the effort

Ahaha, I've already read that too. I was gonna read the entire Book Girl series too, but I ended up just reading the first one, cause I got stuck on Wuthering Heights (It's an amazing book, I just can never finish english books for some reason...)

Yeah, I've read it a couple years ago so I am well aware. It's one of my favorites too!
I still find it hard to believe how just accurately Dazai managed to capture some complex emotions in words
