by artifically induced are you talking about the potential SSRI medications or the substances you're using?
If you're admittedly self medicating with substances that you would rather be sober from, I don't see what's the harm in trying a medication that could possibly be helpful.

It's been removed for quite a few months now, possibly up to a year. The web servers do receive maintenance but there hasn't been a major announcement since 2016-2017. I wouldn't be too worried about FC2 not making profit off their web service. Their video-sharing service does quite well.

Thanks a lot for the info!
Looked it up and I made a post elsewhere back in March with Fc2 sites and I had to mention you could close ads in them (each page of most JP art sites consist of 3 iframes/similar js, they looked crazy with all the ads on each frame kek), so I guess it's kinda recent.

Is it stupid to invest a lot of time and energy into a website if it's not hosted by you? I was supposed to only work on each page for a month but now I wanna add a custom shimeji and a ton of other stuff, but I also feel like that much effort is pointless. I worry about having a lot of eyes on it, weird people finding it, getting "cancelled" and then the site gets taken down and all my work is gone since I forgot to redownload it or something.

No. 2296333

>>2296326
First of all, always work on your site locally so that you have it fully on your device. That way even if by some ridiculously rare chance you get removed from whatever host you're on, you'll always have a backup. Second of all, getting "cancelled" doesn't really happen in the world of personal websites. There's a probable terf blocklist going around neocities, sure, but no terfy website ever got taken down. Word of mouth kind of travels slowly through these circles, and user turnover tends to be pretty high as many people lose interest in maintaining their sites so past dramas tend to be forgotten about quickly.
The only sites that I've personally witnessed get deleted had extreme racist material, and even then it's a toss-up, many such sites still exist with no issues.
As for other hosts, people give even less of a shit. Even on neocities all you have to do to take eyes off your site is disable your site profile. Nobody will be able to follow you which will reduce the social aspect a lot but you can still follow others others.

Late but oh my god, just because Australia and New Zealand are British colonies doesn't mean we operate the same as America. We never had African slavery here and both Maori and Australian Aboriginals accept white passing people and have done so before the internet was even invented because of the Stolen Generation. We also don't have the retarded race wars you guys do, our discrimination is more xenophobia focused. ime you're more likely to be called slurs if you were Italian, Serbian, Chinese or Pakistani than if you had a darker skin tone as a result of being indigenous.

I'm going to sound like a freak but I only wet brush it if people are going to see me. If not I just keep it in a bun until I need to brush it for vanity reasons (I work from home and don't care how I look to my family). I discovered it because I had horrible hygiene as a kid (because I could get away with it, genuinely. I don't smell and my hair doesn't get greasy and that has been confirmed by multiple people throughout my life) So eventually I was like okay let's see how far we can take this. After a month I just felt bad about myself so I washed it, but who knows how much longer I could have gotten away with not washing my hair. Some people don't wash for months. When I do wash it I use a clarifying shampoo (I have low porosity hair and if I use regular shampoo it will stay in it and not absorb or wash off) and conditioner to bring back moisture and softness.

The nape hair! Been there, in winter it used to become so matted when wearing scarves or hats. I usually wash it every day even when it's short, even if I don't have to. A pixie-style cut is easy to maintain since my hair is straight. Any longer and you can see my scalp through the strands. Right now it's a buzzcut so I can just swipe my hand across my head and it's dry, which if awesome.

I enjoy lying too anon. After their horrified look I laugh and play it off as a joke to fuck with people and it usually works well because I was so deadpan before, but my intention wasn't to make a joke. Sometimes it feels like I'm a compulsive liar and makes me feel bad. I deleveloped this from growing up with an abusive mother from whom I had to lie and hide literally everything for survival.

I literally couldn't care less what random Japanese people think of me. Hopefully you're right and they decide they hate guyjeenz (you're sooo japanese for using that word zomg, I hear if you chant it in the mirror three times at midnight you will magically have monolids when you wake up the next day) so much that they never want to do business with the West ever again.

I think a lot of American millennials + zoomers are very dedicated to the "America is this awful poor violent shithole" LARP for whatever various reasons and feel invalidated or something when people who have lived in other first world countries prefer America. The US isn't even in the top 50 worst countries for mass gun violence. 50. But people my age will act like you're a crazy person who wants to live in a warzone if you say you miss America. A lot of people seem to need reminded that the US is still very objectively a democratic first world country with a huge economy that a lot of people from other places fight tooth and nail to get into. It has some unbelievably shitty areas, sure. But there are also plenty of American suburbs that are just as clean and safe as Japan.

Damn, that's brutal… I'm in a similar boat as you. I feel like just a few years ago it was so rare for people to go and study abroad (out of my hs class only the privileged kids did) and now suddenly everybody can do it. I also always wanted to go to Japan but decided against it for financial reasons and because I wanted to graduate uni faster. And after uni I felt like I had to start working full time immediately. Now my two younger siblings are studying abroad, my brother has been in one other country for 3 years and my sister will go to two different countries for 2 years. Same for the the kids of my parents' friends. And let's be honest, it's not like nowadays kids are financing this shit on their own, it just became so normalized that everybody gets to experience studying abroad, that they feel entitled to it and parents feel like they must help them do it.

yes! I feel like my age range and maybe yours too? Like mid 90s millennials got screwed over.I think for my entire 20s the yen was expensive and it was even more expensive to travel to Japan. But nowadays because the yen is down its so much easier for people to do it. Now i feel stupid listening to my family and friends tell me it was impossible or that I shouldnt learn japanese because its a useless language. Maybe 10 years ago it was but nowadays its not useless. There are even some jobs hiring that ask if you know Japanese.TBH im jealous of Zoomer weebs they get to live out the dream more accessibly than we did. If only I was born in 2004 instead of 1994 kek

You don't have to show me a paper explaining Twitter is full of bots, I use that site, I have seen the replies of popular tweets kek.
But even with the bots, the rate of active actual people is much higher over Twitter, I followed x2 people in Mastodon and my TL was way more deserted despite that. In Twitter I follow 100-ish people and is pretty active, just JP posting their art and food photos and a few ENG mutuals I talk to.
No one is moving to Mastodon, you don't have to shill it on a gossip board. Right now the only viable opponent is Bsky and I have started to see a decline in activity already (it's surviving for longer than I expected tho)
