I thought/kind/would be a little more busy after it was dead for a week cuz of that hack.
But it's as dead or deader than before.
Role call maybe? Post a random image.
What's new?
How are you?

Pretty good, just recently discovered this place.
I've been trying my best to be a nicer person for the last couple of months but some people are really driving my patience.
I just want to live a comfy stress free life.

It seems like the inspiration for new threads has run dry, huh? I know some people are unhappy with the way serious topics kind of devolve into /unkind/ conversations, even going to far as to leave the board because of it. Personally, I think that's a little drama-queenish when you can just not look at a thread. The key to reviving the board, though, is threads like this one, where we just have fun and socialize. If you touch a serious topic, it will always devolve into moping.
Anyway, what's new? I am finally making the diet and exercise changes I really should, and feeling more optimistic about things! Previously I would kind of half-ass change and not stick with it, but I feel motivated and less anxious.
At the moment I feel annoyed because I have to go get something from ikea.

I got a new bed and curtains, thank you for asking! Also helped mom get stuff that she wanted, so it wasn't complete drudgery.
Maybe this will sound weird, but I get a nostalgic feeling when I'm in one of their warehouses. Reminds me of when I was a little kid, and they seemed so alien.

Same, feels good. For me the toughest part is not to lose spirit once weights stop showing progress every day and not to give in to temptations once you've broken the BMI boundary.

Hello friends. I have not been to this place in a few months, so it felt like this would be the best place for me to post in, since I haven't caught up on all of the threads yet.
Things have been generally middling as usual. Christmas and easter were nice. On christmas I received a mechanical keyboard, and on easter I had chocolate hot cross buns!

Sounds like you'd be throwing a heck of an achievement down the drain, anon! From what I hear, the best thing to do is to repeat to yourself that there is no "going back" or "giving in" because you made a permanent change. Nothing wrong with giving your body a break for a for a little while, or a meal, either.

Had to look that up. Absolutely decadent. Hopefully I'll try those some time this year.

You vastly underestimate my willpower, friend. I've lost approximately 15 kilos in about nine weeks and still going at almost same rate. In b4 that's unhealthy: I know, but so far no adverse effects and I'm even gaining muscle size from exercising.
And now I've been prescribed a diet that's even harsher than my self-made one was so I'm starting to worry about keeping/gaining weight in several months, actually.
>From what I hear, the best thing to do is to repeat to yourself that there is no "going back" or "giving in" because you made a permanent change.
Yeah, but it still takes self-restraint if something you really like is right in front of you, within arm's reach. For me "you only like the taste but eating it will screw you over big time" works better. Also "I eat to live, not live to eat", but that's a timeless classic.
>Nothing wrong with giving your body a break for a for a little while, or a meal, either.
Breaks are absolutely a thing, yes. And they get less unhealthy and frequent each time.
As for meals, I wasn't starving myself, merely eating just enough and replacing junk/unhealthy stuff with fruits, vegs, better fats, better proteins etc. as well as getting enough liquid each day.

What is your very honest opinion on mopey posts? Like, if someone who saw this thread replied something in the lines of:
">How are you?"
"I'm tired blablabla suicide blablabla I hate myself and my life blablabla disease bad family no job etc"
?
I think it's alright to do it, but I suppose most people who make those posts don't really want help and are doing just for the sake of at least letting it out.
What do you think, /kind/?

I think it's okay. For one, the board might be more lively. Sometimes just talking to someone else or typing your problems out might help. Its also a nice feel to know someone read it and even a better feel if someone offered advice.
It gets bad tho when someone wallows in self pity, is ungrateful for the replies and then even lashes out at other anons. I see this a lot on /r9k/.
My family is disintegrated and I have no job but I keep applying and I exercise. I have an internet connection. I've applied to around 300 jobs by my estimation and have had 2 interviews. Nothing to do but to keep trying.
And to someone who posts about their problems, my response is often the same, fighto

You don't have to force yourself to be happy just because this is /kind/ especially if the thread is literally asking how you are doing. I made a thread that was actually about listing the things you're optimistic about and the first thing anyone did was mope. That's not nice. Try not to bring people down, okay?
I hope one of these days you will love yourself, anon. Did you ever? Maybe you can try to put yourself on track to get there again, since you're still here.
>>35790
That is impressive, anon! I know you will get there with that attitude. Can you teach yourself some extra skills, maybe? I know over here there's always a shortage of people who can do basic computer stuff like image editing and simple code.

I finally brought myself to post in the oekaki thread but now I'm drained. One thing I wondered earlier this week is why people like nazi anime girls. I have also wondered if that is something various people from different walks of life like or just people who browse /pol/ who happen to like anime. I don't really see the appeal besides a mutual hate for jewish people but I suppose understanding fetishes you don't have is always hard.
On a less possibly controversial note, I made an art request on /i/ at 4chan for some art of a character I like but I doubt the artist will get around to my request.

I think you are over thinking it. Actual Nazis are a tiny miniscule minority. Most people like it cuz it's cute. Other people will post that stuff cuz it's on the edge of acceptability. It's like being on the edge of unexplored territory. Nazism is completely taboo. Anime girls is tolerated and even accepted in some places. It's a cheeky freedom of expression shitpost.

Was too dumb to figure out how to make either vi or 7z to encrypt a file/archive: frustration and sadness…
However with some struggle I managed to change my bank and one of my credit card account names, passwords, and my new encrypted email via tor and two vpn connections – I'm running l1n00z mint (AKA the n00b distro) through a VM and have my vpn running on both winders and this – but the other CC account blocks tor traffic so only x2 vpn for that one. Also did the tor+x2vpn thingy for changing the password and email on Amazon. Feeling more and more secure: joy!'
Too bad I had to disable 3D rendering in VirtualBox so I could take screenshots so I gotta deal with even laggier leenucks than I'd been. And I decided to try running it on both monitors today, so that's probably a major contributor to lag.
