There are baking classes where one can meet other bread enthusiasts... or so I've been told.

When the Gawr goes Rawr.
"And all of a sudden, for no reason at all, she snapped and went crazy!"
Inspired by "Gurandma" jokes on a certain boxing stream.
Jokes aside, it can't be easy bearing the weight of "top Vtuber" on her tiny shoulders. Everyone has different ways of dealing with that immense pressure, and maybe keeping her "smol streamer that's happy to entertain a few fans" mindset is one way of coping with that.

No way to know for sure...I discussed it with her, but it's hard to say... she's not a mental health professional. ...but she can become one...
The secret to making all those memes
"You're joking about talking with an imaginary girl in your head, right?"
"It's just for the memes, right..?"
"...right?"
"Ha... ha... Yes... It's just for the memes..."
"I'm sorry, if I don't say the magic words those people will give me the magic pills to take again and you'll disappear...!"

The actual reason a lottery was done: Like the selling of concert tickets, too many would volunteer if given the chance.
Unfortunately any kids made won't be coming back to Earth, though... so the birth rate of Japan remains low...but higher than if Earth got nuked.
It's funny when parodies of actual figures appear in Japanese media.

Ah, I thought that was better than just dropping the URL (since it's more effort to copy and paste the URL).
I'll keep the Reddit links for those that browse Lemmy on a PC, but as a work-around, those on phones can copy the URL from the link and paste it in their phone browser or something.

FLUFF TAIL MUST BE FLOOFED
Kind-looking grey-haired dude? Check.
Orange/gold-colored fluffy fox? Check.
...huh. AU Spice & Wolf, maybe?
A game demo by a somewhat well-known NSFW game dev (of Strive for Power fame). That color scheme and fox-human partnership was pretty iconic.

No worries, advertisers increasingly use memes too. If this was a news outlet, it would probably be called "Degenerates Daily"...

"At least our free countries don't have morality police controlling what people can wear" - "Just because you don't see them doesn't mean they don't exist... maybe they're just better dressed and better hidden... they don't have to control what you wear if they can control what you see..."
A quick and dirty meme after seeing the latest updates. Saimin? Really? But 50SOG with its dubcon (at best) is fine? Hmm.... I wonder why. u/kaigyuu2016 would probably have a field day with this.
I mean, I'm no fan of ryona/guro myself, but I don't go around telling others they can't access it (even if they might need a bit of Touhou Jesus after that).
Then again, I guess when you have money and monopolistic/duopolistic power in a market/industry, you'll try to reshape what society can see according to what you think is right... just like Steam.
I wrote some time ago that "this isn't stopping at looks = age, but going beyond that. It's anyone's guess where it'll stop."
If they don't stop at saimin... what's next, timestop?
u/Jaggedmallard26 nailed it pretty well... "You can launder money from drug cartels so they can buy heavy weaponry with a bank but god forbid you use their service to see a titty."
My condolences to our German weebs, though.

My bad, the second half of the sentence was meant as a reference to the joke, but it came off as a bit rude.
Type the following into Google Translate or DeepL and consider the difference a single letter can make: Goukon: 合コン Goukan: 強姦
I think there was a fan patch that's done, but I've not tried it out.
I recognize some of these posts might be heavier for some to read than others, so here's a comment thread if you're struggling or already pulled under the waves. Of course, reaching out to your friends or getting professional help can be helpful (even just for the peace of mind to discover that a symptom of depression might not necessarily be depression itself), but not everyone has those resources and talking to an AI sometimes just isn't the same..
Here's a place in the post to type about how the post made you feel, commiserate, get things off your chest, or, if you feel a bit stronger, to reach out and try help/just be there for others. After all... the waifus might not be enough for the darkest night, but hearing from a stranger that cares just might be.
A new reaction image for y'all based on the post.
"Then...I'll go search for the waifus in the isekai land with the magic rope my frie-" no, don't. Come discover cute anime Jesus instead.
I've not watched Spice & Wolf, but this is pretty funny.
Edit: Would be nice to the meme creator if you included the source next time though.
