>This story is a compilation of the series published in the old Skorpio magazine. Here the duo tells the adventures of the poet Percival, Oberon -king of the fairies- and a so-called king of the foxes, lost in a labyrinth that unites all possible universes, real and fictitious. The structure of an infinite labyrinth is used by the duo to take their characters from one tribute to another to the artists who formed the authors. There are allusions to Cervantes, Shakespeare, Fellini, Pink Floyd, Spinetta, Jethro Tull and Rimbaud, among many others. Despite the constant homage, the series stands out for its finely tuned sense of comic storytelling. The image is exceptional in its quality, but also in its sequential editing.

There is some hidden reason why Joker 2 exists other than to screw the audience of the first movie. Why did the director have to fuck up what he had done with joker 1. How could this guy be such an asshole to say he was forced to accept 20 million to direct it. He could have said no and left it to a better director. Maybe it's true that this movie is just a ritual of humiliation towards the audience.

Listening to Werewolf books on a Hunter’s Moon. Few things match such a feel.

Wolf Blood - by Matt Tyler

Has a wonderful gothic horror feel throughout. I wonder if they will keep it up with other books in the series. I will listen to book 2 later tonight unless I get distracted with something.

>>68181
Book two really is trying my nerves. Somehow the AI voice has gotten significantly worse or the editing of it has gotten lazy. Ether way it's now a drag to listen through.
The story meanders. The themes trite and preditable. The borderline retarded social comentary and virtue signaling is lazy and clumbsy, and I dislike all of the new charcters. Also India sucks as the new setting but it seems that the bulk of the last 3 books of the series are taking place in it. It doesn't have the same gothic horror vibes at all. Instead the whole thing feels more genearic modern fantasy trying to follow trends in mainstream publishing. Which is to say, follow the DEI agenda rather than craft a decent story or stick to the more interesting setting.
Worst yet, basically all of the charicture progress of the people from the last book has been frozen because too much time was spent fleshing out 2 of the new characters. Mind you not all of the new characters, just two of them. Both being kinda shit and I am a bit disappointed nether died. I mean one was wounded but this being now a basic bitch fantasy book, that means basically nothing.
Worst yet, I can already pretty much predict where the story is going and I don't like it.

So disappointing.

Something I didn't think possible happened.
I had written off litrpg entirely as a genera because every single book and webnovel I had been exposed to was extremely bad.
But on this day I actually found one that I enjoyed and was actually halfway decent.
Probably because it isn't remotely styles after anime tropes and doesn't use fanfiction tier writing.
Basically it's a war vet trying to retire to a farm but being unable to stay out of trouble. To go into more detail I think would spoil it.
I haven't been so surprised by a book I thought would be shit actually being decent since Demon DIY.

Battle Mage Farmer #1 - Domestication

[–]  No.68480

Since I found a litrpg book that didn't suck I decided to give a web novel litrpg a chance since I written off that whole genera too.

In looking through plot descriptions that conseptually could be intresting I found one that seemed to be a good fit for my taste.
One with a monster/inhuman protagonist. One that followed villain characters. One where the MC doesn't have romance story lines dragging the plot down.

What I found was a web novel series called Devourer.
https://www.scribblehub.com/series/299966/devourer/

Someone used AI to turn it into a rather lazy audiobook, but it's mostly tolerable (though could have used some editing and fine tuning. It's clear they didn't listen to the output of some chapters before posting)

My thoughts on the book.
It's shit…But its so unrelentingly edgy in a way I personally find highly amusing.
Like the prose are not good, there are awkward exposition dumps everywhere, the dialog is basic but functional, there are basic continuity errors that should have been caught with a proof read, like people's hair and eye color description changing for a paragraph, and it's clear that the author occationally (though not always) uses chatgpt to bulk out his work.
It really is dreadfully bad from a story craft and writing point of view.
All that said I end up with a goofy smile on my face when listing due to the raw power fantasy aspect of the MC being a ultra powerful monster ripping most thing's in it's path apart with the main goal of becoming stronger, all because of some poorly thought out remarks made during reincarnation.

Athough I will say the author seems to mention people pissing themselves a lot, quite a bit of rape, and the author seems oddly bias towards lesbianism when it comes to relationship involving the side character. AKA the author has some fetishes/kinks and isn't even trying to hide them.
Thankfully these aspects are never focused on. Instead the carnage the MC gets up to and tons of clunky world building is the focus, which is what I am interested in.

No longer human

Heard it was good. Turns out it was extremely boring. I hated it.
No plot, just constant navel gazing mental monolog of a boring introverted semi-normalfag who feels bad about not being a full normalfag.

He is NEET and makes videos about it. To be honest a lot of his takes and opinions are really bad, but he has so much content, in particular the 8-12h long podcast, where he talks about anime, miscellaneous otaku stuff, TF2 and Linux, but also his other 1-2h long videos. If he were to stop talking about his politics or personal life and would focus more on otaku and tech stuff, it would be a much better channel. He just a NEET, neither a Hikki nor a wizard, though.

Yeah, that guy is weird. In his newest video he announced being divorced from his trans wife and already having a new girlfriend. He talks about what he calls normalfags, yet is besides being user of some imageboards, is still a prime example of what he despises. When he talks about normal people, the word barely has any meaning to it.

Recently I've been getting into photography. I've found that after doing so, I perceive moments in different ways. Things simultaneously seem more transient, yet more permanent. It's a sensation that's difficult to describe, except to say that I am more 'aware' of the moments around me. For obvious reasons I have avoided urban areas, but in terms of landscapes and natural shots, it is quite peaceful.

Any photography hobbyists here?

I've been interested more and more about the power of daydreaming. I think that if my daydreaming ability was extremely advanced, that it would activate an entirely new level of self-actualization for myself.

To this end, I've been looking for ways to enhance my ability to daydream, and have recently gotten interested in writing fiction (which there's already a thread here about it >>59403 ), tulpas (plenty of threads about that stuff), and in solo roleplaying. I don't see anything about solo roleplaying games, though, so I thought I'd make a thread about it.

I've tried solo roleplaying before in very naive attempts, but you run across the obvious pitfall: the temptation to metagame your character against knowledge that should only be privy to the GM or other characters is just too much. Quickly, it becomes unrealistic. I'm just getting started in this space, so I don't know a whole lot, but some of the systems (oracle systems like Mythic GM, for example) and techniques (solo episode journaling) that have been developed are a lot more advanced and appealing than I thought they'd be.

If anyone knows about any good solo RP systems or thoughts about it, please share.

I now consider researching conspiracy theories to be a hobby of mine. Of course, as a hikki, this information is of literally no use to me whatsoever, and I do not have the charisma to "educate" others. It is simply a pastime.
Many people act like simply researching these very alternative ideas is damaging in and of itself. Popular on wizchan youtuber named "K9 Aversion" recently announced she will no longer be creating content simply because people among her fanbase were discussing 5G towers and anti-vaxx ideas within her communities. Discussion alone is so offensive? Why? I do not even believe many of the ideas proposed myself and just enjoy thinking about them.
Because of these extreme reactions, I feel it necessary to give this disclaimer. Again, I do not necessarily believe the things proposed in this thread but rather enjoy thinking about it.

Please do not discuss theories that are political in nature in this thread. I don't want it to be deleted, although I find them interesting as well.

Some examples I've been thinking about lately:
- Alien abductions are real, however they differ from the normalfag idea of an alien abduction in that real abductions occur spiritually and not physically. And these abductions are NEVER to your benefit and you leave very unhealthy and emotionally damaged. They happen during the sleep normally, however sometimes they can happen while awake and when this happens it's similar to a date rape drug– you have a 2-5 hour blank spot in your memory when you "wake up" and have a feeling of general unease.

- The extension of the flat earth theory which claims the entire sky is a hologram, and sometimes that no planets except Earth exist. There are many youtube videos that document sky hologram "glitches".
- Alternatively (not flat earth related), that the sky is itself a giant living organism and that it sometimes sends shards of itself down to attack or observe people (they look like blue blankets and fly at great speeds.)

- You can fall through the ground like a video game glitch and get stuck in an infinite void on certain parts of the planet.

- Dinosaurs existed up until the early 1900's as evidenced by dinosaur tracks on the top layer of the earth that are way too well preserved to be from 60,000,000 years ago.

- Some gnostic wizards think that if they become spiritually elevated enough that they can cease ingesting food of any kind and live heaPost too long. Click here to view the full text.

Since I've had the internet, I've seen stories about giants around the world and no matter where in the world they are, they always look like this. Exactly human, except for the height and only having 4 fingers and toes.

I remember hearing about the testimony of a Smithsonian employee, who, on his deathbed, confessed to the cover-up and destruction of anything to do with giants and anything that did not fit into the historical and evolutionary narrative.

I wonder why. What's wrong with knowing that the history of the world is much more than what a mercenary scientist who sells himself to the highest bidder tells you?

>They lived in a time known as the Era of the Fourth Sun and it is said that they built the pyramids of Teotihuacán and the Great Pyramid of Cholula.


> These mythological beings are associated with the narrative of the Five Suns of the Aztecs, which is about the existence of five eras with five different races in the remote past of America.


>They were created by the Gods in the Age of the Fourth Sun: that of Atltonatiuh (Sun of Water).


>The Ríos Codex or Vatican Codex A, which focuses on the Toltec-Chichimeca people, shows the Aztecs battling and capturing one of these giants.


>The name of the giant that appears in the codex is Quinametzin.

The word comes from ” quinametli “, which means giant.
Aztec mythology says that these beings inhabited Mexico and Central America and that the native peoples fought against them.

I could say the same as you did. To me the story of Satou should go beyond the ending of the anime (I can only remember the ending of the anime at this moment), where he finally gets a job, since as a neet I think that he would have a lot of hardships trying to readapt himself to what would be called a "normal life".

I wish we had a card that set rebirth of the seventh emperor and resurecsion of seventh emperor in to the field (both are traps) for the shark deck

there should be a new psy-frame handtrap card that can synchro summon so you can have a synchro monster turn 0
