Redpill me on working on Japanese farms, I can't trust those shilling faggots on /a/.
>>16914100
Watch some Dotchi no Ryori. They go to a lot of farms in Japan.
>>16914100
Well the average age of a Japanese farmer is like 65
There was only one person shilling in that thread, and it was definitely me. I've worked on a apple and peach orchard for some time now with a group of friends in Japan I connected with during study abroad back in college. It is probably not the 'typical' experience a foreigner will get off the bat, because most people go through services that set them up with families/farmers.
There are lots of old people farming, so the industry and communities are literally dying out. There is a significant movement by the Japanese government right now to get young people...

What are these broken blood vessels on my face called?
They've been on my face for like half my life and have looked the exact same kinda weird, is there even any way to get rid of them?

maderma 8 week scar lightening cream.
>>16914078
How does it look sexy o_o
>>16914093
its not like they're pimples. any other form of markings besides some big hairy mole is considered endearing. ur face could be a little 'harder' for it, but i wouldnt worry about them at all.
at the very least they stop you from being toooo baby faced.
but ur a qt and the marks look nice imo. i wouldnt worry about them. but if you must, maderma, 8 weeks, should bleach em
So this girl I've been seeing recently told me she's had a crush on me for a while. For the first few weeks i saw her she had a boyfriend however she would tell me she no longer had feelings for him and was attracted to me.
We weren't hooking up or anything as I recently got out of a relationship where my girlfriend of 2 years cheated on me (December 2015) and wasn't willing to put anyone through what I went through over the past few months.
I thought she was talking bullshit and didn't speak to her for a few days after. She then messages...

All you can do is give her time and hope for the best.

Red flags. Red flags everywhere.

Concur. You like drama, OP?
I like Midori a lot.
Could you recommend me other liqueurs/mixed drinks that I might like? Baileys is too strong for me.

The past few years I've been torturing and killing animals. Some are strays and some I've bought from pet stores. I don't think I'm a psychopath or anything like that, but I'm wanting to know if other people do this?

Go there?
no i will never do something like that, i think is a waste of time/money, inmoral and if someone discover me doing that i can get in trouble
I've been worried about testicular cancer since I was young. There was a period around 17-19 where I went to the doctor 6-7 times for a "lump" on the bottom of my testicle. The doctor probably was tired of fondling my balls, so he told me to stop worrying so much.
Fast forward 10 years and I feel like my testicle has a lump... In the same spot. I have a doctor's appointment in a few weeks, should I just wait until my physical then for them to check?
I don't want to call in sick to work for a false alarm.
>>16914001
Someone with testicular cancer has something like a 95-99 percent survival rate, at least that's what the Internet tells me. I've also read it's one of the easier types of cancers to treat.
Just wait for your physical.
Also, this is just a hunch, but do you think you might have obsessive thoughts? Is it just testicular cancer that's worried you over the years?
Testicles aren't supposed to be perfectly smooth you know. I'm sure you've checked it out - there's...

Yeah, the doctor told me that's what it was many years ago.
I don't know on the obsessive thought front... I do have a ton of recurring thoughts about my work schedule and time and such, constantly reminding myself what day it is... But I don't obsess about much else.
>>16914001
well you should see a doctor for sure
I had one, and it turned out to just be a cyst caused by sperm escaping the teste
Have 8 hours between shifts, during which time I need to sleep and get ready for work again. Also there's no food at home. And I want to eat high quality health foods.
What to do? I really need to start meal planning in advance and making large batches of food I can freeze to eat when I want. But yeah what should I get to eat? Simple easy foods, hopefully high in calories. That take no time to prepare and etc.

Soylent.
DIY recipes are readily available, cheaper than the commercial version, and avoid the G/I side effects the original comes with.
It's not for everyone but I think for your scenario you should look into it. You can prepare the mix the day before, leave it in the fridge while you sleep, and then grab it on the way out etc.
quick question
I like a girl and tell her I love her
two weeks later I finger that girl's best friend in that girl's house on her couch in close proximity to her.
She could tell but not see that I was fingering the girl
is what I did wrong? (the answer is probably yes)
>>16913979
You can't just frame these things as "right or wrong". What's your goal? If it was to have a successful relationship with this girl, then yeah you made bad decisions.
This happened a while ago and in the moment I didn't feel like that might hurt the girl I liked feeling's (which it definitely did) I was just looking for other people's opinions on the subject
So, I'm in an LDR with a girl. She's about 3 hours away from me during college, and on breaks she's back in my area. To me, she's excellent, beautiful and all that I want. Yet, being new to the whole college culture, I feel like I'm missing out on the whole "dating girl on college campus" thing. I feel torn between this LDR and starting fresh, but I feel like I'm risking losing someone potentially wonderful. What do your guys say?
I dumped the kindest, sweetest, most compatible woman I've ever known over this and it was the biggest mistake of my life.
Don't do it.
get out of the relationship. LDR is retarded, should never ever be done by anyone. Source: my own life
and if you're having these thoughts now, just imagine 3.5 years down the line and you're about to graduate. you think these feelings are gonna intensify or just go away at that point?
>>16913890
Thanks, man. You're right; I don't wanna fuck this up. I'm young, so it feels kind of like "this shit never works at this age," but things are going smoothly in the relationship. It seems... atypical of my age group, y'know?
So my older brother (white,26 years old) has always been kind of a dick. Hes very arrogant and has all these conspiracy theories about cops and the government and hes also your standard neckbeard (loves anime but has pleb taste)
About 9 months ago he got fired from his job for poor performance and said he was gonna come home for a month to clear his head.
Hes been making my families life a living hell, and its torturing my parents who have paid for his car note, car insurance, school loans, food, weed, and the multitude of car accidents and shit hes gotten into...

Talk with your parents to make a decision to call the cops on him, or beat him up in the old fashioned way.
Well, if your parents care about the weed obviously just expose/blackmail your brother, but I assume that they either don't care or already know, so what I recommend is to try your best to convince your family to agree to kicking him out. He's a leech that only will leave if forced. it wont be easy to make him leave and there will probably be a huge fight between you all but it's a necessary action. If you're willing to be more extreme you can snitch on him to the cops so he gets arrested for possession of marijuana or something (If it's illegal where...

Thanks for the replies!
Both of my parents know he smokes to "relieve anxiety and hep with depression" but I'm still skeptical.
I managed to talk to them about kicking him out but they figure he'll be arrested within the week and they'd have to bail him out. He's got almost no friends who would agree to let him stay
I've been depressed for a while, since I was 15 (I'm 21 right now). Sometimes I'll feel happy for brief moments. I'll enjoy the company of my friends, actively engage in my hobbies, and really focus on school. Sometimes. Most of the times, I feel lethargic, unmotivated and I lose interest in my hobbies. Sometime's I'll be reading a book or playing a videogame and just question myself "Why the fuck am I doing this, this is pointless".
I think my biggest issues are my lack of self-esteem and how I lock away all of my problems deep down inside myself. I never feel comfortable talking about my issues with other people. Even with a therapist (I had 5 sessions with him), I feel uncomfortable letting it all out. I don't really know why?
I think it's just because I fear being ostracized for my feelings and true self. I can only let the lid off when I'm with my two best friends back home, because they're basically brothers to me. But because of college, we only see each other over break. With this lack of support group in my life, it makes me feel restrained, like I'm a prisoner with weights clamped onto my legs, except the prison is my own mind. I do have friends in college, but I don't feel connected to any of them. I'm worried that if I say something wrong, I'll be left in the dust. Which I feel has happened, mostly with how I am constantly criticized for my interests.
Sorry I sperged out for three paragraphs, I'm just getting sick and tired of this bullshit called depression and I wanted to let it out in someway. The reason I did it was because I had a brief thought of how everything would just be over if I wasn't around anymore. Which scared me shitless that I even had that kind of thought. IDK, thanks for reading this if you got this far I guess?
>>16913839
i don't think i can give any advice that's that great as i'm in the same boat, but i just wanted to let you know i read it all and i feel for you and i hope it gets better pal. maybe talking to people online like this will be easier to talk about your problems because it's anonymous? could do it regularly
>>16913901
Thanks for reading man, it's really tough letting it all out. I just feel so isolated from people. Even if I hang out with people on a regular basis, I just never feel that connection between another person and I.
>>16913901
Wish the best for you as well pal
How feasible is it to move to another city or state and just start over? I'm only 23 but I honestly feel like that's my only shot at doing something with my life. I dropped out of community college 2 years ago because that's not what I wanted. I know that sounds stupid but I know it's not for me. I've come to realize that I'm gonna die alone and miserable so why should I bust my ass in school just so maybe I can earn a lot of money. I'm never gonna have a wife and kids, have friends to hang out with, or anybody else depend on me for that matter....

>moving wouldn't change a thing unless I changed myself
I agree with this, that's what I ended up learning. But you're young, find out for yourself.
>>16913837
I can't help you out OP since I'm younger and more of a loser than you but that's a stupid image, living like shit or living great won't matter when you're dead but compared to other mammals humans live for a very long time.
i agree that moving wouldn't change a thing unless you change yourself.
However if you really want to move it's extremely feasible.
Personally i decided to go to college a few years ago but I purposefully chose a small far-away school where I didn't know anyone. I "reinvented" myself and tried new things. Interestingly enough i found that the me I wanted to be wasn't all that different from what i was in my hometown. my personality didn't change much but my mental health definitely improved.
If your're talking form a purely financial standpoint, i would say it's quite doable. my cousin got on a bus with 5 grand and disappeared into rural Texas for a year. when he finally contacted us again he had found a stable job that he really enjoyed at a stockyard.
Is it a common practice for pedophiles to lure children with puppies? Not the promise of a puppy or a person holding a puppy but a trained puppy that will do thinks like run in circles in a parking lot and once someone gets close run into a nearby secluded location (like an ally)? Has anyone on this site heard of something like that happening? Sorry if this seems out of the blue I was walking with my little sister a while ago and saw something of the sort happen, it's just strange to see stray puppies.

It's more likely it's a stray or lost than some kind of pedo-trained trap puppy.

Why? Do you have a better idea?
Feel like killing myself. What do.
>>16913770
Don't. Tell Adv why you want to kill yourself or reveal yourself to be the bait you probably are.
>>16913779
I don't know how to help people. Or myself. I get these grand ideas in my head about how I could make a difference with some complicated project, then after I start working on it with a clear mind I realize that I didn't really want to help, and just wanted to make myself feel good.
Sleep on it.
Whenever I get diarrhea I get the urge to people's heads under my shitting ass. Do you know how to retrain the mind not to go to such images? I keep feeling one day I'll do it. Pic unrelated.

You shouldn't be getting diarrhea so often that this is becoming a problem. Fix your health bro.
