Tired. I couldn't sleep, so I walked my dog at midnight. Then laid down and called out for work.
But I got a B on my exam! Hooray.
>Any plans for today?
Just reading comics. looking for a better way to pirate them.
>Is there anything bothering you right now?
I've been plotting the best way to pass an interview for a job I really want. I have a few pages of bullet points, I'm just trying to tactfully present them.

hey everyone! what are you guys up to this friday?

>>81958942
hey yuat
ready for the weekend??
how's it going?
I'm feeling tired and dull today

>>81959069
>ready for the weekend??
as ready as i'll ever be. ^^ didn't plan anything, though. i'll be working out with my friends tomorrow, but that's about it.

>how's it going? I'm feeling tired and dull today
same here. getting up early for work always drains me. can't figure out what to do on days like this. i still got some volumes of witch hat atelier left. maybe i should read those. you could check out k-pop demon hunters if feel like it. it's a fun enough movie to kill some time with.

>>81958623
>and maybe share with us after :3
I started using chucky on my ipad with this guide: https://www.reddit.com/r/Piracy/comments/kkoazm/most_convenient_way_to_read_free_comics_on_an_ipad/
Now I just need my manga on there.
>well doonee :D
thanks
>don't know what to do and don't wanna do anything :/
yeah, I was like that for the past few weeks.
>>81958857
hi meowster
>Congratz!!!! :D
Thanks

Physics.
>how was ur day?
Okay, just tiring.
>>81958942
hi yu
>what are you guys up to this friday?
skipping work I guess.

>>81959747
hey cynic! congratz on passing your exam! good job! :>

>Now I just need my manga on there.
i really miss tachiyomi. that was a nice app. :/

>skipping work I guess.
why?

btw, replied to you in the last thread. don't know if you saw. >>81946540 started reading absolute batman and it's pretty good so far. not sure about all the new designs and gadgets, but a fun read overall.

>>81959236
>ready as i'll ever be. ^^
yay :>
>didn't plan anything, though.
that's okay
>i'll be working out with my friends
have fun :D
>can't figure out what to do on days
yep it sucks
>maybe i should read those
there's no reason not to ig
>fun enough movie to kill some time with.
never heard of it
maybe I'll watch it
but rn I decided to watch some barotrauma stream

>>81959747
> using chucky on my ipad with this guide:
thanks :]
>was like that for the past few weeks.
are you feeling better now?

>>81960292
>there's no reason not to ig
only reason i can think of is that i can't even write a proper reply to your post anymore. my brain is mush (@.@)

>never heard of it
it's a magical girl movie with k-pop stuff in it. if you get past the first cringe, it's entertaining enough for an evening.

>I decided to watch some barotrauma stream
what's it about?

>>81959944
>tachiyomi
yeah, and who's gonna pay for a kindle version of a manga? Price is all over the place and sometimes the boarder fucks up.
>why?
I'm on overtime as is and I was really tired this morning.
>started reading absolute batman and it's pretty good so far.
It has some surprisingly good character ideas and detective work.
>not sure about all the new designs and gadgets, but a fun read overall.
Yeah, the cape is wacky but I kind of like it. The bat mobile is somehow a tank and submarine. The bat-a-rang shotgun just circles back to campy fun. It's a weird balance.
I still file like the best batman media is the penguin show because it takes the mob politics seriously and makes it just as important as the super villain.
>>81960292
>are you feeling better now?
not really, but I get to cosplay tomorrow, so maybe I'll pick back up.

hey y'all sorry I've been gone for a bit. hope you've all been well

>>81960539
>can't even write a proper reply to your post anymore.
that's okay
if you want to you don't have to reply at all :]
go have a chill time and take a 4chan brake
>magical girl movie with k-pop stuff in it
not sure I'll like it but I'll maybe see tomorrow
>what's it about?
barotrauma is a game where multiple people work on a submarine and have to keep it running while scary things happen

>>81960608
>get to cosplay tomorrow
what?! that's cool
who you cosplayin??

>>81960835
hey hey ali
it lovely to see ya :3
how's it going???

>>81958331 (OP)
Hey there, I hurt myself about a week ago and since then it hurts to do specific movements with my left hand. Like clenching my fist is fine, but pressing my index finger down sends a stinging sensation through my arm. I'm kinda afraid that I hit a muscle. But Im pretty sure that I didn't cut deep enough.

Other than that, thank you for making these threads

>>81961003
hey cat
>it lovely to see ya :3
thanks you too
>how's it going?
ok i guess feel very empty and emotionless tho. how about you?

Hello /cut/. as you know I have been playing with bloodletting from my hand for a while now. Although I've been successful I have run into a problem. I can't get much blood out that way. I have only managed to get around 16 ml in one go at most. And so I'm seriously considering sticking a needle in my forearm to see how much blood can I get that way.
For anyone worried. I'm going to be okay, doing it there should be easier and actually safer than the hand.
Hand veins are relatively small and fragile and while sticking myself I have not badly hurt my hand veins so if I'm skilled enough to not do that then my forearm is safe.
I hope everyone here is having a lovely day

>Q1
more or less decent I have recently felt disconnected to how i feel
>Q2
getting a corndog
>Q3
It has become a daily habit
>Q4
Daily Habit cant break out off
>Q5
I want a corndog

>>81960608
>and who's gonna pay for a kindle version of a manga?
if i pay, i'd rather pay for the the physical books. maybe if the prices were really competetive i'd think about it. at the moment i'm just checking out the things i might want to buy. last time i bought a book blind i ended up regretting it. :/ i wonder why it is so hard for other entertainment industries to come up with a similar distribution system like the one the music industry agreed upon. in the end, convenience trumps all and atm pirating is just way more convenient for the stuff i want to consume.

>I'm on overtime as is and I was really tired this morning.
i see. enjoy your chill day.

>It has some surprisingly good character ideas and detective work.
agreed. at least i'm intrigued enough that i want to know where it'll go.

>the cape is wacky but I kind of like it.
if a grappling hook is ok, i suppose this is too. which is my reaction to most of the changes and ideas. just shrug and roll with it. not sure what bat has back-spikes, though.

>It's a weird balance.
true. lots of body-horror in this one. ever read "the doom that came to gotham"? it's been a while, but i remember liking it. then again, i really enjoy hellboy, so a batman comic by mike mignola wasn't a hard sell. ^^ for something different but kinda adjacent, i'd recommend "the marquis".

>I still file like the best batman media is the penguin show because it takes the mob politics seriously and makes it just as important as the super villain.
i can see that, but i couldn't convince myself to watch it yet. call me weird, but i like batman in my batman shows. i think for me the most definitive version of the characters is still btas. you can always give me those and i won't complain. also my favorite portrayel of gotham to this day.

>>81960835
hey gator! don't worry about it. you have your reasons. just always good to see you here. :>

>>81961162
Hey anon
>hurts to do specific movements
interesting, how deep was the cut?
maybe you slightly damaged a ligament or something?
If you're worried I reccomend going to a doctor
Though if it's not hurting a ton then it likely will heal itself, just be careful to not overwork your arm
>thank you for making these threads
you're welcome and thanks for posting ^^

>>81961229
>thanks you too
^^
>feel very empty and emotionless tho.
heh me too
why do u feel like that?
>how about you?
mostly fine
didn't do anything today, could think of anything to do and the weather was bad
now I'm watching stuff of yt and going to sleep soon

>>81961381
Heyo
>more or less decent I
hopefully it becomes more than less though :>
>getting a corndog
oo nice
I've never had on eof these
where do you get them?
i always wondered how does that ketchup stay on the side of them and doesn't fall off
>Habit cant break out off
how did it start? and do you want to stop?
>want a corndog
best of luck on your quest!!

>>81960845
>if you want to you don't have to reply at all :] go have a chill time and take a 4chan brake
not a bad idea. i need to get up kinda early tomorrow anyway.

>not sure I'll like it but I'll maybe see tomorrow
usually i wouldn't watch anything like it either, but i gave it a chance and was pleasantly surprised.

>barotrauma is a game where multiple people work on a submarine and have to keep it running while scary things happen
ah, one of those "crew"-games. there's been a surge of those, i feel. the horror-angle is a neat idea. i don't think many of those games do that. who did you watch?

>>81961436
hey yuanon.
>just always good to see you here. :>
thanks and you too.

>>81961522
>heh me too
well that's not too good.
>why do u feel like that?
just what always happens when I'm sad, I don't cry I just feel nothing.
>could think of anything to do and the weather was bad
well sorry to hear the weather was bad, good time to just chill tho I guess.
>watching stuff of yt and going to sleep soon
well sweet dreams when you do.

>>81961705

>>81961872
nothing really rn. was playing Roblox tho. you? and I don't have any plans no, probably just idk. what about you?

Image has nothing recent but please dont open it if it could be triggering

I'll be going to sleep now

>>81961547
>not a bad idea.

>who did you watch?

>criken: I'm sad because you're my only friend on this ship

>>81961705
>not too good.
yeah

hope you be okay too :<
>when I'm sad, I
why are you sad?
sending hugs to u !

>>81961993
hello anon
over time it's going to get purple then pink them pale skin colored
It also might physically stick out quite a bit when it heals up though that doesn't always happen
also what it gets cold your scars might hurt a little bit
>dont open it if it could be triggering
you are very considerate
thanks anon

>>81961913
>nothing really rn. was playing Roblox tho. you?
nope. just lying in bed, thinking about what to put on to fall asleep to.

>and I don't have any plans no, probably just idk. what about you?
the usual workout. don't know what else to do at the moment. i'll probably watch the next episode of hikaru when it drops tomorrow.

>>81961995
>have a chill time friend
you too. sleep tight.

>it's mostly just silly roleplay
also something that a lot of people seem to do. i had no idea how popular that is.

>one thing that made me laugh

>thinking about what to put on to fall asleep to.

>>81962172
>just feel like in really bad at comforting and helping my friend when hes not feeling well
sadly there's only so much we can do as friends in that situation, but i'm sure you just being available already means a lot to him.

>hope you find something soon so you can sleep.
i think lazerpig made nerd rant about a star trek ship. that should do nicely. ^^

>I'll probably start watching the show tomorrow
do tell me what you think about it if you do.

i should head to bed now. good night, everyone. have a nice weekend!

>>81962355
>already means a lot to him.
idk I just wish I could do more, he deserves the world.
>nerd rant about a star trek ship. that should do nicely. ^^
