cancelling plans is ok. getting stabbed in the heart is ok. summoning king arthur to fight other spirits is ok. killing ur teacher is ok. killing ur future self who is trying to kill u in the present is ok. destroying the holy grail is ok. do what u need to do to cope
I have a friend who actively micro cheats on his girlfriend and works at FAANG and plays deadlock. I also have another friend that is loyal to his girlfriend and works at < ——— TRADING FIRM> and plays deadlock. Much to learn from both instructors
Update: Tokyo 9/10. Not 10/10.
It's a great city but there are too many minor annoyances that cumulatively add up to keep it from 10/10.
In particular, night transport infrastructure is puzzlingly basic for a cyberpunk-coded megapolis of 35M.
Subways close at 12 am. (Moscow's at 1 am).
Moscow, Seoul, and London have night buses in the wee hours, and London Tube core routes run 24 hours on Fri and Sat. (NYC subway ofc runs 24/7).
Main practical choice is to call a taxi, but Japan has a cabbie lobby, so taxis are the one major category where there's NO yuge discount relative to the US.
This keeps night life surprisingly muted for a city of its scale.
Couple other minor bugbears, but that's the big one.
SF today and pre-2022 Moscow remain my top 2 cities.
I gotta concur. I was dating a Chinese girl for a few months and eventually we had a fight where I eventually said something like “but surely you want more in life than just <status symbols>!” and she’s like “no!” And then we broke up lmao. She was real cute though.
Had two ex girlfriends that liked it rough during sex but honestly never was a fan of the choking thing. Made me feel nervous having your hands around someone’s windpipes you know. They both also had bad relationships with their father. A lesson in there somewhere
The reward for good work is more work. The reward for being vulnerable is more opportunity for hurt. The reward for perseverance is grieving what could’ve been. Very backwards some of these
I once dated a Chinese girl from China, not Chinese American, and she was by far the most materialistic and status obsessed out of all the women I’ve dated.
Just a robot creature who was obsessed with feeling validated through shiny trinkets and making others feel envy.
Meanwhile she was probably the most insecure woman I’ve ever given my time towards.
jensen Gets a pass cuz he was lowkey only microcheated and that’s because mercury is in retrograde and he’s a non avoidant yearner who is gonna be in limerence
