Some dharma studies can be quite esoteric, very practical in use especially when dealing with suffering and loss in life. -

From experience I suggest just read up and apply the basic teaching and master that. The basis of dharma is practical life advice that can bring you to a state of skillful means and attunement with subtle magic.

I checked this Human Design thing out, and it seems that the only thing that matters in this is your date and time of birth? That's really not convincing, it's just a different kind of astrology. What about early births, or medical situations where the child had to be prematurely extracted through c-section? Does Human Design account for that, or should those people add a few days or weeks to their date of birth?

Just like with astrology, the info they give is applicable to almost everyone, I mean everyone will think "this about me so much fr fr" upon reading the results. And if a trait doesn't match, you could make the argument that it's a hidden trait that hasn't yet manifested itself.

Sorry, but no.

I found this group I'm playing with years ago using Roll20. Maps and dice are handled through Roll20 but we use Discord for audio. I'm not sure why they don't use the audio from Roll20, this group had this roll20/discord thing going before I arrived. I know ib users despise discord and perhaps with good reason, but considering purely the technical side of things, using discord for audio is very convenient. As for the game system, we switched around a couple of times but the most fast paced, easy to learn (because, really, there's almost nothing to learn, you roll a d20 for basically everything) is a game called Old-School Essentials which is a rewrite and cleaning up of D&D BX, a very straightforward, no nonsense system. I hope you guys get together to play some, it's a fascinating experience. In my case it became a prison and that's why I'm harsh about it, but you shouldn't pay too much attention to it, it's mostly self-loathing like I said in a previous post.

Well, I've thought about it, and I don't think it would work well on wizchan. It would be too slow to be enjoyable, and would require so much simplification that it would just be interactive storytelling.
I encourage you to look into play-by-post games, I'm sure you'll find an opportunity to try it, entirely over text. There are websites and forums dedicated to this.

Gave myself some sort of back injury doing squats with poor form and going up in weight too fast now I'm having to not go to the gym for a week to recover. At least my gym has a pool I can go to for some cardio that's light on the joints. Remember to be careful wizards.

Spinal decompression should be done before and every heavyweight back and leg sets. Just 15 seconds of hanging from a bar can help

I thought that mixed grip was more liable to cause a bicep injury in the arm that's supinated.

>>68670
It is. Reverse grip has no benefit. If it's the only grip that is comfortable then there is something wrong with your wrists, and endangering your entire arm isn't worth making a HIT exercise more comfy.

>>68671
Mixed grip is used to lift more weight during dead lift when not wearing straps. It has nothing to do with comfort.
>>68670

Usually it's a trade off between making it easier to bail to avoid leg and back injures, but there is a slight increase in the risk to bicep injury.
This is in the context of lifting very heavy, like near or even at the very limit of your strength. So no matter what you are dealing with a risk of serious injury. Mix grip is a way of mitigating certain risk for a lesser one.

>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.

Thread is gonna hit the limit. Im going to post more alcatena and argentinian comics in the next one

Sorry, i could only find some of his works in italian. I hope some italian wiz enjoy this

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.

Thank you for posting this. This one looks so sad it can be like one of those eisner comics, like contract with god.

Is it bumping?

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

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.

YES, I know, He is just comfy to watch

Filthy Frank aka pink guy

https://www.youtube.com/@u0yknaht0n88
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.

>>68057
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.
