TAKO SENSEI is a pretty easy and fun app you can use to learn the japanese alphabeth, while, DUALINGO is a useful app to learn of structure of the sentences in japanese; but as a hint, you can learn, while watching anime and repeating the character lines to memorise it and learning how use some words ;D Dont pressure yourself when are learnng a new idiom, just take your own pace to learn

I agree whisp, I think it's okay to have a little banter about it, but like don't start taking that shit serious. for real.

Here is a link to a game i recently played: https://pb.casaschi.net/2AYmJIs it involves lots of sacrifices so thought to share it >.> at move 12. i knew that pawn to d6 is better for me but couldn't resist knight takes pawn on f7 >.> which lead me to sacrifice 2 pieces for an attack, probably my situation was worse than his but his situation is difficult to play which lead to further tactical mistakes by him and he resigned on move 19. it was a 10 minutes blitz game :V

"Wheelbarrow full of money to buy a loaf of bread. I wish it was a joke, but it is not." - The same thing happened when the German Empire collapsed after WWI.

In Buddhism there exists the level or concept of an Arhat, if one attains the level of Arhat it simply means that this person is unmoved by external circumstance There is no reaction, only action This is simple but also profound Suffering is still there, how can it not be does not suffering come from having a body? how can we suffer without a body? But! I am not my Suffering

I realize this may sound strange coming from one banana doing potentially psyche threatening actions against another banana

An interesting question. Although I believe people can change their gender and go between the two, I believe there are only two genders (which is different to the sexes). Sure, call yourself gender fluid if you want, but I don't call that a category, it's just deciding to be neutral. You can be as feminine or masculine as you like, or not. You're still likely to be more one than the other.
