  1. Just got my application accepted for a new apartment!!! I'm moving to a new area of town with a new roommate and while the last couple weeks looking for stuff sucked we ended up finding a super dope spot. The apartment we found is a 3 story townhouse where we each have our own bedroom and bathroom, and its 1400 sq ft so we have a hugeeee living area too and a massive patio that isn't even accounted for in that. and the place is like $600/month cheaper than my current apartment so my rent is going down too. And it's only less than a ten minute walk away from the downtown part of the neighborhood. I'm putting a deposit down tomorrow and its soooooo nice to just have this sorted out finally.

     

    Now to deal with the logistics of actually moving in 2 weeks... then getting a car... then a new job... shit feels like its never going to slow down lol but I'm definitely ready for some changes

    Congrats man, good luck! Curious what part of town you're in now!
  2. seeing Denzel Curry and Trash Talk tonight with champion woo~

    It was sick!! I rolled my ankle and got some weird scratches all over my arm during Trash Talk but the show was so tight and energetic, v cathartic.
  3. absolutely saddened, shocked, disgusted. 

     

    a man with no political experience now leads the united states. a reality tv show host, a failure of a businessman, an anti-science buffoon, a bully with little taste, class, or civility, has successfully conned his way into the white house by exploiting the fears of a largely under-educated, angry voter base. honestly an embarrassment.

  4. The porygon was in a public park, lots of trees and stuff. No idea how much environment plays a role in one spawning, above all I think I just got lucky.

  5. Got enough candies to evolve a Slowbro, I'm stoked. Also got a Tangela from a 5km egg which I'd never seen before (rare around here I guess).

     

    Probably my rarest/coolest catch was finding a Porygon in the wild, that was a surprise.

  6. Yeah people are blowing this way out of proportion and are being really entitled.... like, nobody is forcing you to keep playing, calm down. Niantic's actions have definitely been very puzzling to say the least tho.

  7. i realized that i don't even really care about combat stats and IVs and all that stuff much at all

     

    like, generally if you're level 20+ you can take control of a gym by yourself anyway. it's not worth the extra effort to me worrying about types and movesets and getting a 10% combat difference at best by evolving the right pokemon, etc

     

    i just wanna catch em all.

     

    and on that note, i have 101 in the pokedex now

  8. Got to level 22 today, most of the way to 23. My Pokedex is at 97 caught/98 seen. Excited to go to California next month so I can find some pokemon that are common there that are rare here haha.

  9. I'm level 20 rn. waiting til i have some more ready-to-evolve pokemon before mass-evolving with a lucky egg active.

     

    50k xp needed between levels now though lol. 

     

    @sporks, the grass/leaves animation means there's an increased, but not guaranteed chance of a pokemon being there

     

    yeah the 'nearby' tab is broken right now, kinda sucks.

    I also managed to apply for an apartment in Seattle this week! The landlord said that she really liked our applications and was just waiting on a couple more things to clear before we put our deposit down. [bleep] the Seattle housing market though for needing to come up with three months' rent for a deposit when I don't even start working for another month though lol. Still, it feels really good to take that step and I'm excited for the place - it seems really nice and is in a really nice area on Capitol Hill, which has the most vibrant nightlife supposedly even though the apartment is on a quieter street between two grocery stores. I'm incredibly thankful I found a roommate that already lives out there to handle most of the searching though because trying to figure this out on my own would be awful.

    Nice, cap hill is a great place to live while you're young. it can get a little crazy around there, but yeah it's definitely the place for all the young hip people (such as myself !) to be. also check out wallingford, which is near u-district, for a more subdued but still fun bar scene. i've been bar hopping there a lot recently. hmu if you ever want any more seattle recommendations or need a new drinking/pokemon go buddy!

  11. yeah i'm finding that as you level up and the CP of pokemon increases, they take more and more pokeballs to catch since they're much more prone to escaping. thus i'm running out of pokeballs for the first time. there are definitely some updates this game needs for it to have any real longevity to it. nonetheless it's still fun to me and finding rare pokemon is still a rush

  12. You've never been called a [bleep] in your life? If you were, it never bothered you?

    yer gonna have to do a lil censor evasion for me to be able to answer this one

  13.  

    Insults directed at straight white males are only an annoyance at best.

    What makes you think that?

     

    oh please. assuming you're a straight white male, can you tell me earnestly that insults directed towards you being a straight white male are any more than an annoyance in your daily life? because i'm a straight white male and never once in my life have i felt attacked or discriminated against for being so, let alone via anti-SWM slur. and i feel comfortable speaking for the majority of this demographic, given the complete lack of ever hearing fellow white dudes talking about being genuinely upset over being called a 'cracker' or something.

     

     

     

    lmao @ obfuscator equating a historically and currently discriminated and oppressed group to conservative/libertarians, whose members represent probably the least discriminated-against group in U.S. history at least.  :roll:

    The very obvious and important difference being that the vast majority of the people upvoting and posting that word in that context are unlikely to be gay.

    So are only gay people allowed to use that word?

     

    In fact yes, for all intents and purposes I can't think of a circumstance where a straight person saying that would really be okay outside of contexts like being in a close group of gay friends who 'allow' you say it. But that's not similar to the context originally being referred to.

  15. The very obvious and important difference being that the vast majority of the people upvoting and posting that word in that context are unlikely to be gay.

  16. Yeah that shithole of a subreddit literally has multiple posts on its front page right now referring to gay people as f*ggots, I don't know if Sporks is blind or thinks that bigotry is exclusively mass murder ... ?

  17. i'd never seen anything of his before (comedy and music pairings are rarely my thing), but happened to watch that this afternoon. really impressive stuff, he's an incredibly talented performer. everything was so intricate and well-thought-out. i got more existential thought out of that than i did big laughs, but all in all it was an excellent hour that left me with a lot.

  18. I'm on a quarter system. Overall I like it and I think I'd prefer it over semesters, for basically how Horatio described. But yeah midterms happen like all the [bleep]ing time so I think it's more stressful on the day to day.
