In may I fell in love with a girl that studied with me, I talked to her and I've been talking to her ever since. Those were the best days of my life, I've never felt so much happiness. I would always sit next to her during class intervals and talk about all sorts of stuff. I really did feel like a human being back then.
But then vacation came and she stopped talking to me completely and wouldn't answer my messages (I didn't send too many of them, just a few asking her if she wanted to play with me), so I waited for school to return. When august came I was euphoric to meet her again, but she didn't show up. After three days of her not going to school I went to talk with her mother who's a teacher there. She said she was moving to public school due to "stress".
I contacted her again and then she explained her situation. Basically she couldn't keep up with our class, I selfishly tried to convince her not to go but she left anyway. It kind of bothered me that if it wasn't me tirelessly trying to contact her she'd never say a word to me again, but I figured she just had low self-esteem (like me!). The next day I gave her a porcelain cat I had bought in the US (I gave it to her mom).
After that we would talk way less; I would show her some songs, she would comment on it briefly; I tried to play something with her but her computer was broken (remember the "CO-OP games to play with a friend" thread?). Although it was her for her to initiate conversation, she would answer to stuff I ask her and that made me happy... until she started ignoring me. The time-gap between my messages and her answers started to get really large, but it didn't bother me so much because I thought it was just her being shy (like me!).

I just got invited to my first one but I am reluctant to go.

Is it worth going to one? My first instinct is to not go and stay home drinking alone like my usual nights.

I want to educate my friends specially about internet and technological stuff, so that they won't fall for any psychological tricks. Like stop using twitter, tik tok and so forth.

Let's talk about the most uncomfortable, unnerving, disgusting and distressful movies we've seen.

I just watched A Clockwork Orange. I think most people are unsettled by the violence, rape, nudity and all the graphic stuff, but what distressed me was the anarchic (which later became authoritarian) and dystopic reality they lived in, the effects the Ludovico Technique had on Alex's mind and the episodes of sickness he had to suffer through after the brainwashing, as well as the implication of such technique being advertised by the gov't as a cure for evilness and not one person except the priest going against it. The ending also implies that the gov't will continue using it and plans to use it on the entire population. The movie also made me sympathetic for Alex, so all the beatdowns he got later in the movie and knowing his mind is completely fucked just made me feel really bad for him.

Threads is the creepiest I have ever seen. It's the perfect showcase of a post-nuclear-war world and all the horrors it has for the unlucky survivors. I don't want to speak about this one, just go watch it. It's nothing short of amazing. I watched it when the war in Ukraine first broke out, so my fear for nuclear war was at an all time peak and all I could think of for a few days.

What should I prepare for? (・∀・)

4chan's 20th birthday is right around the corner and yet i am 90% confident that absolutely nothing special will happen, even though it's a pretty important milestone.
There's been an image spreading around telling people to not post on that day to check how many bots are active but it's not hard to guess why that wouldn't work.

lets all wish 4-ch a happy birthday!

Thanks, +
