Beep-bop, beep-boop. What are the rules? Similar to our music thread; 1 post per person per day.

It's simple. For original quotes add nothing or credit yourself. For unoriginal quotes credit the source, or just add "(X)". :) Example (original): We are all unironically broken people pretending to be ironically broken people. Example (unoriginal): If people were rain, then I was a drizzle...

Ever since the beginning of 2020, when the hoarding of toilet paper and anti-mask rallies first took shape, I've found making friends to be increasingly difficult, not to mention dangerous for myself, the people I love, and everybody else besides. I'm an introvert, but even I'm starting to get...

Hi. I've read very little manga all year, and I'd like to get back into it. My favorite manga follow themes of surrealism and euphoria, kind of like Alice in Wonderland, Death Stranding, and Nier Automata. Can I get some recommendation? :)

First, if you were God, or just a person with an ungodly amount of money, what changes would you make to the world (or humans) to make it better? Take into account the regressive tendencies of human cultures. Your goal should be to make a world that won't ever need a flood. Second, what can we...

Seeking manga/s that fit these descriptions, one of them, some of them, all of them. My favorite manga in this regard is the melodramatic Oyasumi Punpun by the idiosyncratic Inio Asano. Recommendations?

What are your greatest rational and irrational fears/anxieties? Totes not scarecrow. Totes won't use your fears against you or sell them to the secret police.

What songs or albums by your favorite bands are the most (uncharacteristically) savage and neurotic? Some examples are Daisy by Brand New, The Wall by Pink Floyd, Everybody Is Going To Heaven by Citizen, Home Like Noplace Is There by The Hotelier, and In Utero by Nirvana. I'm looking for the...

A young Japanese man walks around town with a large cookbook strapped to his back, it's spine open and fixed to a particular page. We get the impression that he's a travelling cook. A young woman with a pony tail turns the corner onto his street and starts following him, getting closer, peering...

I feel these are topics that aren't discussed nearly enough. What is false progression? Have you ever done something that you felt was progressive - like debating people on Reddit/Twitter, or platting a video game, or paving the way to "social success" on sites like Facebook and the now deceased...

You know how you can "collapse the menu"? Well, there's still that bar with the white arrow that never goes away. I propose we change that. Make it possible to COMPLETELY hide the menu when reading manga, at least for PC users. After all we can still press "t" to reverse it. I don't how easy or...

Some of us have read so much manga that at this point it's really an unhealthy obsession that's taken over our entire lives, but what about American comic books? Which one is your favorite?

What's the longest you've went without eating and how did it affect you physically and mentally? I'm going to fast for a week starting tomorrow. I've only tried fasting for a day at a time, perhaps 6-10 times in my life. My strategy will be working out enough to keep muscle but not enough to...

What's your favorite book of all time? You can choose 1 or up to 10, if you're a huge bibliophile like me.

I don't know for sure if this kind of post is appropriate or not, but I wanted to thank everyone who scans, cleans, and God knows what else manga that I read. I've discovered so much great manga through this site and for free. While I technically could've and would've read them elsewhere if I...

Have you ever had a million good lines but didn't know how to work them into a poem? This thread is a safe place to save that stray creativity. Use this thread to chase away your writer's block and uncertainty. I hope this helps someone.

Before we begin I'd like to ask everyone not to attack each other. By all means, confront each other's logic and reasoning with your own, but please, keep it civil. This goes for both sides of the fence.

I normally wouldn't bother asking since it says it's under maintenance, but it's been saying that for the past couple of months—at least it has for me—every time that I try to send a message. Is it just me, has it been that long for everyone else, or is my timing just always unlucky?

I know it's silly (because it's fiction) but there are a lot of books and manga that have me waking up to this day feeling depressed or out of sorts because of a character's death, or because of how far a character was pushed mentally and emotionally over the edge, or from watching a character...
