Aight. I just happened to see folks talk about this stuff on /mu/. Thought you might have heard it from there. Cuz that's where I have heard about this album (and the band too) for the first time.
I liked the music at first because it was kinda chill, but then I got bored of it.
It all started somewhere in the summer of 2021. At this point in time I realised that I gotta do something about the pandemic. Something more than just being a model citizen by spending 8 hours a day on Reddit (which I already was). So I decided to travel back in time. I wasn't sure how I was gonna do that, so I searched up a tutorial online. I got this nice little webpage that told me that to achieve time travel, I must reset my PC clock and then delete system32. Obviously, I am not an idiot, therefore I realised that deleting system32 was put there for some trollin and will only fuck up my machine, so I skipped that part.
I had everything ready to go back to 2019 when I remembered that I'd need a way to come back to the present. Obviously you can't forward your PC clock to go forward in time. That's plain stupid. After some more searching, I found an article that talked about forward time travel. Apparently I needed a creature that is capable of curving time. The article also had a list of such creatures and one of them happened to be a duck. This was great because I had a duck shop right across the street.
The duck shop keeper didn't want to accept my fake bitcoin coins as payment so I had to go full gangster mode and steal the duck. Once I had the duck ready, I quickly reset my PC clock to summer 2019 and stepped out of the house. The cool 2019 summer wind was gently blowing over me as I was walking down the street thinking what should I do next. I figured that the first person I must inform about the pandemic should be the duck shop keeper. I strolled into his shop and told him about the unfortunate happenings that are gonna happen in a year. I don't think he listened to me as he kept on eyeing my duck. At the end of my speech he asked me "why did you steal my duck?". I told him that I didn't steal it yet because we were in 2019 and the theft act was gonna occur in two years from now. He told me that he just watched the cameras and saw me grabbing the duck from his cages. At this point I remembered that I did something like that back in 2019. I told the duck shop keeper that that is not the most important thing he should be focusing right now because getting a duck stolen in 2019 is nothing compared to having the whole shop closed down in 2020. The dude just stared at me like "so this is the second time you're doing this?". At this point I noticed that the dude's calendar had "2021" written on it. This was solid evidence. The duck shop keeper was an insane person who thought that they were living in the future.
I was getting bored so I decided to quit. I let the duck go and followed it just as was described in the article. If you take a duck from the future into the past, it would always find a way back. As soon as I heard an ambulance rushing past me, I knew I was back in my time. Then, suddenly, I felt the presence of the duck shop keeper. He was walking behind me the whole time! I literally just took this man from the past back into the future.
Not only did I completely fail my mission, but I also left a duck shop unattended for two years.
Becoming a billionaire is simple, just follow these two easy steps:
1) Get a job that pays one million per month.
2) Work for one thousand months.
Alternatively, if currency is not the issue here, you can take about 50 thousand US dollars and exchange that for just slightly more than 1 billion Laotian kip (or any other currency with funny exchange rates).
I kinda agree with you, but I would like to point out that acquiring a native language as a child is not the same thing as trying to learn a language later on in life. A child's ability to learn is much greater. Read: Child language acquisition.
Also, I would like to add that communicating in a language is a key step in learning it. You can consume as much content as you can, but unless you actually practice, there won't be much progress. This is where I always fail. I don't like talking to people.
What about communicating online? Even just via text? I feel like my English has improved tremendously after just chatting with people online on various forums and message boards.
I guess that helps too. You can grab a bunch of words off Reddit and throw them at people in real life to make them doubt their own proficiency in English.
Verbal communication is still the best way to improve spoken language I think.
Never experienced this type of thing. I mostly use the mobile app on Android, which I find glitching out from time to time. Sometimes scroll stops working or audio stops playing for whatever reason. I had other glitches too, but I don't remember details.
The 3-minute-cooking-time spaghetti. The less time I spend cooking, the more time I'll have to aimlessly scroll youtube.
Life is about making compromises. I knew I had to cut off my social life back when I decided to pursue the career of a full-time youtube addict. Unfortunately, I also have less time to cook anything now.
I'm in my second year right now. Honestly, I was doing kinda good in my first year, but then the current semester kinda destroyed me. Even though I was doing ok, I was always pushing myself to do better. Now that the courses got much harder, I started pushing myself even more while also trying to escape reality by aimless youtube scrolling. Eventually my mental health declined and I got left burnt out. That happened about three weeks ago. Still trying to recover somehow.
I was in a similar situation back in highschool. I failed a year because I was unmotivated to study. Literally went from top of the class to being put on "probation".
The self hatred is real and it just makes everything worse. I hope you can find your place in life where you won't have to hate yourself. I hope we all can.
Mir Publishers was a major publishing house in the Soviet Union which continues to exist in modern Russian Federation.
It still exists. I think you misread the following part.
In 2008, the company faced a bankruptcy case. The case was closed by the Moscow Arbitral Court on June 2, 2009 because the publishing house had paid completely the debt to the creditors.
On a side note, even the wikipedia article has links to these ebooks.
First of all, I would never hack a google account. I would never even think about hacking a google account. That's just plain immoral and wicked behaviour. I would never gain possession of another person's google account for the purposes of gaining control of their mobile devices and deleting all their data. Such an action could cause immense amounts of distress to the victim of my attack. If it so happens that I somehow accidentally hack into someone's google account and remotely factory reset their phone, I would immediately log out of the account, write an email to the victim apologizing and explaining my situation and then hand myself in to law enforcement.
From time to time.
Did you find this on /mu/ ?
I can vibe with this.

No, but a lot of memories. You'll have to trust my words.
Sure.

So many people quiting at the start of 2024. Quite a few big youtubers decided to stop making content.
I watch ads.
My condolences.

That's awesome. I wish you could lose it and then get it back again.

There were some posts on Reddit promoting Mainchan too.

Sometimes I also cook sausages, rice or fry eggs.
Thanks. Appreciate.
That is, if I make it to the end. I hope I do.
That's sad to hear.

Same.

Weirdly charming music. The vibe I get from this song kinda reminds me of "at the drive in". Probably due to the weirdness.
Yeah, in the future maybe. Not really planning to move, but just wanna see if living elsewhere would be better.
I was so into "The new abnormal" a year ago.
