TMI(?), but my body's just been going through phases of weird bullshit. The current one that's been going on for the past 3 or so years is I get the hiccups way less, but I also drool while I sleep sometimes.

I used to be a hiccup fiend until I had this one insane hiccup fit in college that lasted over an hour, and I basically started having them less since then.

I hope the next phase is being immune to cancer.

Pretty good j-pop song, right?

THINK AGAIN!

Compare if you will, to the chorus of this Indonesian pop song released 3 years earlier.

A coincidence or something more?

The Stereopony song is a banger though, sad to hear about Darker than Black season 2 though.

This is so true.

Jordan Peterson perfectly summarizes here the ravages that woke postmodern neomarxist ideals have done to western society.

Imperial LARPers are the most fascinating people on the internet

I'm sorry sweetie but you are nowhere near old enough to romanticize the Dutch colonial empire.

And no amount of tweeting is going to bring the Japanese empire back either.

And you are not ancient Roman.

You might just have Mongol DNA though, like the rest of us.

Indonesia VS Japan tonight.

If Indonesia wins, I am going to become an Indonesian.

Something that I've never understood is this weird cutthroat zero-sum view people have about the world

I saw some random white dude bring up how Indonesians should be replaced by more "productive people" because I guess the country doesn't have as much global recognition compared to its population and size.

I know this song is absolute dogshit, but I just can't stop listening to it. It's terrible in a way that's almost enchanting.

The governor of the region I went to college in recently said he's gonna send problem children to military barracks to discipline them.

Then he went on to say he wants to do the same with high-achieving students, so they can build character as well.

I can only imagine the wacky anime social hierarchy bullshit that'll come from all this.

I swear I used to be immune to the stimulating effects of coffee, but now it's like caffeine releases wicked djinns of sleep deprivation into my bloodstream. ?? نَعُوذُ بِاللَّهِ مِنْ ذَلِكَ

I really gotta actually read or watch Solanin so I can stop being a poser, but this song is just so good. It makes me look back on all the things I've done wrong, except I don't get to repackage those regrets in a poignant alternative rock song with lyrics by Inio Asano.

The only good Canada has done for the world: the 2019 Toronto Raptors, maple syrup, and Rush.

This is their best track. It's energetic, catchy, and also just the right amount of prog dorkiness. It might not be as technically mind-blowing as YYZ, but Spirit of Radio really captures the spirit of Rush: 3 talented dudes who really like Ayn Rand.

Read the first couple chapters of a romance manga about a guy with insomnia getting cured by sleeping (literally just sleeping) with an underclassman girl who just... is interested in him, for some reason, I guess.

It's later revealed the reason for his insomnia is that in his freshman year he asked out a girl he liked (who he's never spoken to) on a date and was rejected. And he's been traumatized ever since.
