what does that mean?
to make those little 6 wheelers I bought a bunch of "city" kits like 25 or so I can't remember
most of the cars are 50 pieces or so

Did you sell the leftover pieces and saved the 6-wheelers for yourself?

"Rebrickable" - Welp, I assume you used lotsa different CITY kits and then mixed some with some

I saved the boxes so I demixed all the pieces (several bins) and the correct parts into each kit

the nice thing is that for me a normal 4.7 dvd has the right size for either 2x12 or 1x24 episodes anime in h.265, so a normal season (which has around of 25-35 series i end up watching) fits comfortably in 15-20 dvds.

the only downside is the organizing. it's an eternal fight between putting 2 thematically close series that came in the same season in the same disk for then to find out that 2 seasons later the second season came out and now you have them separated.

Sometimes i keep series in my hdd for years because i'm sure a new season is gonna come out sooner or later but it ends up dead, like log horizon, and stuff that has no reason getting a second season comes out of nowhere, like the vending machine one.

I have been reading many cognitive psychology papers on how to be a better "student". I will share what I have learned and benefited me so far.

1) Create a project.

-Set out a goal

goal ——> higher goal ——> The ultimate goal

Write your goals and step them out to make sure you choose the optimal path to reach your goal. And be as verbose as possible. e.g. instead of writing I will learn French, write I will learn 50 French words.

Also, be honest to yourself. Is your goal achievable? Lofty goals will cause you to lose your motivation.

-Determine the necessary materials.

If you are taking courses in a university etc. necessary materials will be provided to you. But if you are learning by yourself, find the books you think you will need and choose the best 2-3 (from my experience, most popular books usually are the best ones.).

-Determine the time it takes to reach your goal

Again, if you are taking courses, you are on a fixed schedule, write down the starting and ending dates. And fill the time in between with the material you will need to cover

Post too long. Click here to view the full text.

I dunno setting concrete goals only makes me less motivated generally. I will just look at it and think "woah I have to do that much?" and lose heart. If I just keep it vague I will feel okay as long as I make any sort of progress, instead of comparing with the specific end goal.

The normalfaggot / wigger battle cry (before you waddle in to a keyboard battle with liquid shit streaming down your skinny leg)
>It's wizardry because.. Well because I said so!
Lmao!!! Drugs are the most normalfag thing there is. Most sexhavers and generally social people do or have done drugs on the regular. To weigh the risks and abstain from the supposed pleasures of drugs is the same as deciding not to have sex.
>discovering new depths of consiousness
Yeah, the same way you entered a new depth of consciousness when the umbilical cord strangled you in your mother's womb. You want to expand your mind? Read a fucking book, nigger. Use your imagination.
>new abysses of withdrawals and side-effects
Figures, you're one of those "wizardry is all about feeling like a sloven pile of depressed goat shit all the time".

You need to consider killing yourself.

I've been doing drugs periodically and just laying back and letting chemically induced hallucinations and sensations envelope my consciousness, it is a pretty good feeling. If you use them right they are objectively an improvement in your life.

However, I see many people (countless even) get hooked on them to such a degree that they are unable to function without a fix, start stealing from their families and strangers, become unhinged and violent, and become homeless and generally a danger to public safety. IMHO, these degenerates give us a bad reputation and they are reason I'm risking jail every time I'm buying my stash from a local dealer. These imbeciles should be killed and drugs should be legalized.

4F-MPH for me. It makes me feel euphoric & gives me the mental energy I need to become as autistic as I want. I've tried some other methylphenidate analogues such as isopropylphenidate & 4-meTMP but those are just inferior IMO. I also wanted to try 2-DPMP since people say that it's even stronger & can last an entire day at a time but that got banned in my country before I found out about it.

I honestly haven't put any effort in gardening this chili plant, I just placed the seeds in the pot with dirt and this how it turned out a few weeks later. It's pleasuring seeing it growing day by day and im looking forward eating the chilli once its red.
It has such incredible calmness to it..

This year most of my plants (zucchinis, strawberries, cucumbers) got messed up with the heat waves, tomatoes are really the only thing I have left. I don't want summer to end, going back to eating store vegetables and fruit is soul crushing. Not much money so no fancy organic food.

Do you garden? How long? What plants?
How do you deal with having to go back to tasteless store vegetables during winter?

Recently I've been doing a lot of clearing. I have been slashing down a bunch of native shrubs and trees that cover up spaces and many other plants that I've planted myself. I usually let them grow, especially ij spring, so that they create some microclimate during the harsh summer. Now that the days are getting shorter and the sun is less bright I can clear up these spaces, and open them up for the plants below. The leaves make for gold mulch and I can use the trunks and branches for firewood. Everythijg used to look so lush, now it looks a little empty in contrast.
I also want to bring in many new plants to fill up some of this space, as it turns there's a lot of it! I plan to bring some small trees and shrubs and hope that within the next 5 years they grow big and themselves cover the ground from the sun, as well as provide a lot of fruit.
I have also been broadcasting a lot of vine seeds, mostly curcubitae, such as pumpkin and luffa, but also others like passionfruit. I want lots of trees with vines hanging from them full of fruit, and pumpkin vines crawling along the ground.

well everything else has died from the cold but my peppers and everything inside the greenhouse are still alive, so i consider this a big success, even if it does eventually get too cold in a few weeks, it definitely extended the growing season and should let me start planting early also.

Ha, no doubt. My garden isn't over but it's winding down. I picked the last of the tomatoes to finish ripening in the window since it's too cold out. Carrots and radishes are still going great and should have my final crop before first frost. Right now it's all about compost and mulching for the off season.
