Casual and classy. Sounds like a plan.

Indeed, a coffee date sounds like a good plan.

Also, to be on topic, I had made the decision to switch my major from Engineering to Psychology. Might not be as marketable, but my family is affluent anyways, and I might as well contribute to society by doing what I love, instead of being worried that I might not fit perfectly into the economy.

Of course, the possibility of future unemployment for me is now realer than ever.

Better advice for that date thing, just stalk her constantly, sneak into her house one night and rearrange all her furniture

Ah, the Bay12 strategy. Don't forget to release your spores.

I talked with my dad for a day.  Then slept 3 hours, and talked with my mom
for FOUR DAYS
Not to mention my cousins

You know what makes me terrified?  None of that.  All of that made me confortable.  Especially me chatting with Mother and Father afterwards, today.

I'm terrified because I know I have to make a change.
I just want a change, I just want a change

Watched the first video.  That was almost interesting?  Needs something more to really accomplish what it's going for.

This was technically yesterday but eh, so I was thinking (as I do quite often) and I realized, Russia still maintains that cold war era automatic nuke the U.S.A if a nuke hits Russia thing.... and North Korea has missiles that I'm pretty sure can reach Russia, so if Kim ever figures that out.... we MIGHT have a problem, as IIRC Russia still has enough nukes to end all (land?) life on Earth, and so does the U.S.A...

Don't worry all those Soviet-era nukes require the Power of the People to operate them. All Russians stronk enough to operate their hand cranks died out with the Soviet Union, and those that didn't married a bear and live as a hermit in the snowy woods of Siberia, and no current generation Russian dares bother those (the hermits that is, don't worry. Modern Russians still don't fear bears, they only fear Siberian hermits).

Am modern Russian, can confirm
I will maybe admit to being very mildly unnerved by bears

Personally I bloody loved it. I've seen a lot of surreal, freaky puppet movies, but they mostly just try to imitate DHMIS, and this is as far from that as one can get. Plus I really appreciate Jordan's ambients even on their own, and here they seem to do the job really well.

Check out Alan Resnick's stuff, namely Unedited Footage of a Bear (minor gore warning), This House Has People In It, and the Children of the Mirror, if you like this stuff.

I won't say too much for fear of spoilers, but I will say there's a good chunk of extra content to Footage if you find secrets, and a ton of hidden stuff to This House. Feel free to pm me if you get stuck.

EDIT:... Also as much as I love Jordan's current stuff I do hope we get more gaming stuff effectually ;.;

EDIT EDIT: Oh shit, how could I forget Petscop? It's not by Alan Resnick but it's pretty good too. Imo it's less creepy than the others and more just strange, but other people seem more affected by it than me, and it's a great watch even without the horror stuff.

Bears are unnerving, because they're such assholes.  Most other predators will not begin eating their prey until they're dead, with the exception of predators that gulp down their prey whole like fish or something.  Even insects like preying mantises will bite off the heads of their prey first.

Bears don't give a fuck.  They just pin you down and eat you alive.
