lol back on here after i disappeared for almost a year. Although I've gone through a lot in that span of time i still love anime and the internet!! Lets be frens

Mm yeah but by that time I'm starving and all I can think about is eating everything in sight in the cafe lol. @Seshi - I do have those but I rarely use them. I don't get sick often - unless you count today which is just a bug - and I rarely go get my eyes checked. I do go to the dentist like once a year but I avoid it lol.

Make yourself beautiful attractive adorable nice scent before starting a lovely conversation like asking his favorite anime or shows! With these steps he will surely fall inlove with you ^^, toink

I walk back and forth to work since I only live about 15 minutes away by foot and the majority of the walk is through a really nice park so especially at this time of year when things are blooming it's a lovely walk. I keep telling myself I will use our gym or pool but I never do.. I'm always tired after work, I don't want to get up early and go before work, and I don't much like the idea of going into work on a day off to use it lol.

I'm not too particularly worried about that happening, if something like that does happen the experience that I've had from this job in IT would make it possible to find another one. But I get amazing benefits as well at this one from free cable/internet/tv/mobile to a really nice 401k and amazing health care. Plus free gym membership (which I never use lol). I really need to take advantage of our benefits more now that I think about it because we offer so many that I ignore ;c

I debated it but the idea of a stable job was more appealing since I wanted to get my own house and things and stop living at home. I still do some freelance work as well.

I don't have one in the field I am in. They hired me based off my freelance work lol I got very, very lucky.

I agree with these good points for going to Anime Expo.

"im sorry"- almost every anime character or at least 70.99999% "Even if we sent a thousand text messages back and forth, our hearts wouldn’t move even one centimeter closer to each other." - Takaki Toono (5 Centimeters per Second) "The stars look so close, yet they are so far away. No matter how much you stretch your hand out, you can never reach them." - Taiga Aisaka (Toradora!)

I've actually been thinking back to this topic a lot over the past few months because I think it's an incredibly interesting discussion. It's taken me a while to put my thoughts together in a somewhat cohesive manner LOL I think that one of the most interesting parts of art is not the final product itself, but rather the process behind reaching that point. A common argument I see to defend AI art is that it provides people who aren't "artistically talented" with a way to create art. The thing is, there is no such thing as a naturally talented artist. Sure, some people are able to pick it up more easily than others, but every single artist starts from scratch and then develops their ability from there. For example, check out the development of Kirohiko Araki's art in Jojo's. Jojo's Bizarre Adventure is constantly praised for it's unique and impressive artstyle. This kind of improvement can come only from years of hard work! AI can not achieve that. I'm sure there are some people reading this that would argue that AI could easily create an image in the Jojo artstyle in a few seconds, but that's the thing. While yes, that is convenient, it is not talent, as AI can only replicate what has been created by humans before it. AI is not able to pick up a pencil and develop it's own skills or anything of the sorts. It will only be able to replicate the base idea of what is presented to it as opposed to taking into consideration the intention behind each brush stroke, colour or line. Did you know that AI isn't even able to create images with an accurate vanishing point yet (a very key aspect in how perspective works)? Also, to be frank, I think the argument that art isn't accessible is one of the silliest things I have ever heard. You have a pen and a sheet of paper? You can make art. You have literally a stick and dirt? You can make art. Even just using your brain, you can come up with a poem or song lyrics or a creative idea. While art is subjective of course, I would argue that it is one of the most accessible things there is to humans. Like, the cavemen were drawing on walls with rocks. Anybody anywhere can do that. At the end of the day, I guess it kind of comes down to what you consider to be art. Personally, I'd much rather artworks where I can appreciate the time and effort the artist has put into reaching the point they are at as opposed to an artificially generated image that was pulled from the work of real people (not to mention how damaging it is to the environment and to us too.) For example, why would I want to watch AI generated sports? The appeal is in watching real-life people with thoughts, feelings and motivations behind what they do. I feel that art is much the same in that regard. While AI can generate a final product, it cannot generate the 'heart' of art, which I think is the people behind it.

An effin biatch

I am a anime editor myself, I've watching anime edits and stuff for over 2 years now. My handle for insta and yt is @hsr.editsif you would like you can follow me.

Morning city

Sorry I've been less active I've been dealing with finals, got two done today and I have 3 tomorrow. Also just been focused on my relationship but also struggling mentally a bit but I'm sure things will improve.

I mostly read x reader fanfics too with whatever character I'm in love with that week lol ~ Speaking of the smut though me and my sister have this super weird tradition when we would stay at each others houses for the night ~ we would find a short fanfic to read outloud before bed but it would have to be the most UNHINGED one we could possibly find lmfaofao like the most traumatizing one I think was Shrek x Veggie Tales x Paul Blart Mall Cop x Aerosmith or something LOLLLL I dunno how this started but we'd be laughing so hard we'd be crying XD I don't read much smut anymore myself but I'm not even gonna lie I be listening to those you x character ASMR's or Imagines on YT occassionally before bed >_> It seems easier than reading lately too lol

Hiya there @freshmoon and welcome to the forums ^^ if you need anything feel free to send me a message. Glad to hear also you are deciding to do what you love and make some AMVs :3 Always pursue what you like even if everyone else thinks you are weird for it! You'll be much happier that way. (Unless it's you know, eating people or something :X)

Eat the dessert like a maniac and then give them a bird.

Drinks with........poison?

No, of course not.

Kiss them right on the mouth but of course I'm gonna say no homo after so it's not weird or anything.

Give them a spoon

I don't know probably wonder what drugs they or I took.

No. Of course not. Whatever do you mean.

Move right into a trailer park with them after a shotgun wedding and start wrestling alligators and join a traveling freak show where I can show off my beard.

Frick

He gon get stalked too he just don't know it yet lmfao

Change my identity and go into witness protection.

That be interesting to see I don't think I've ever seen a full circle rainbow.

Probably for infinite money because while I really have no desire to spend a lot, it would allow the ability to travel and meet friends from all over and be able to take them to nice places and do fun things. What's your favorite type of weather event? Such as snow, rain, etc?

You are welcome ^^ and did you get the icons that I sent? The conversation seemed to be messing up and I wasn't sure it sent.

Likewise to you~ and I am enjoying it ^^

Yes that's at least something. I would imagine I do have sugar problems as they run in the family.

I'm glad things are better at least and hope they continue to get better. I don't know you that well yet but if you ever need to talk or just complain about things then I'm a good listener lol.

I would dress like a possum and run at them screeching and hissing. If they don't notice that there is something terribly wrong

I rarely finish what I am writing either, and lately I have no inspiration ;/ I've been trying to find some by going through old stories and poems that I've written but it feels like I don't even know how to write anymore e.e

I love cosplaying of any kind It's always so much fun even if it's "low budget". I love his voice, but that English accent of Ryou's is ajkakjf akfjajajfoajf djd <3<3<3 lmfao ooo I bet doing a cosplay of Alucard would be fun as well! I wish I knew if there was a comicon coming to my city any time soon, I've been too busy to be able to check or to get off for one but I'd love to be able to do a cosplay again :c

I wound up in a graveyard once around 3 in the morning looking for a Pikachu. It never occurred to me where I was until I stopped long enough to realize I was dead center of the graveyard at the worst time of night in an area I'm not very familiar with me and suddenly there was no Pokemon on Earth that mattered to me more than running full speed out of that place as fast as I could possibly go XD Well that wouldn't work here, it's been cold since yesterday, down in the 30s and 40s F. It apparently was even snowing some this morning. Tomorrow is supposed to be back up to 75 though

I would color it pink and put sparkles all over it with happy anime faces all over it and it wear it on my head. What is your favorite sleeping position that you never fail to get comfy in?

I can eat like Goku when I want to lol.

Hm that is odd o-o Ah that does sound nice, vacations are always nice. I don't have one again until June Oh it's rainy where you are as well @Seshi?

That makes sense since it is easily accessible at that level

I am only good at making koolaid

Wow that is looking amazing. I wish I had the patience to color like that, but I'm more of a, let's color some My Little Pony and some dinosaurs in the kiddie coloring book kinda person

Awshummm, I will eat the table and the cake~

Wow I didn't know anime goes back that far O.O' Well favorite anime.... hard to say, but the very first anime I watched I think was Digimon or Dragon Ball Z. I think Digimon season 2 is still one of my favorite animes to this day. I also like Peacemaker Kurogane - which we spoke about the other day -, and Boruto. I think Digimon is what actually got me into anime to begin with, between that and Dragon Ball Z that is when I started to find out what anime was and started watching other animes such as Fullmetal Alchemist and Inuyasha or whatever happened to be on TV at that time ^^

I do like motorcycles, always wanted to ride one - never have gotten the chance yet though ;/ If you were able to talk to animals what kind of questions would you ask them, or what type of things would you ask them to do for you?

Thank you ^^ Favorite number? Probably 9.

My God that video reminded me of trying to have a conversation with my 13 year old sister lol. I admittedly say "yeet" a lot but only because I like the way it sounds~ lmao. "Weird flex but okay" is really the only one that gets on my nerves for no particular reason. So does finding these phrases slightly annoying and confusing mean that I am getting old now?

I really love Asuna x Kirito Videl x Gohan Winry x Edward And Matt and Sora from Digimon

Currently Boruto and Dragon Ball Super more than anything.
