That pic was taken by amateur American photographer Charles Weever Cushman in 1942.
His kodachrome snapshots are a chronograph of America (and other parts of the world) from the 1940s through the 1960s.
Here's some from San Francisco, circa 1968:
Heh, that's funny, half a century later and those pictures look almost exactly like how SF looks today, the only difference is the way people dress. -

It's probably a skinwalker but the word is that they can't enter your home unless you invite them in, could be a wendigo too in which case you're fucked.

2015-07-04 at 4:39 AM UTC in Add emoticonstotally, I'm down to add any of the zoklet smilies (although mass adds like the onionhead ones or the kitty set might be too tedious to do by hand and thus take a bit to script up). Does anyone have a backup? I'm particularly interested in lapastada and co., umad and descendents, and favorites from the original set a la picard, facepalm, :o, shifty and whatnot. Will check the wayback machine in a bit to see if I can rip them from there but if anyone has a backup I'd appreciate it (I remember arnox had a zip at one point, no idea if that's still floating around)

2015-07-04 at 4:30 AM UTC in More fucking post formatting optionslearn2bbcode nigga. vB5's wysiwyg editor is some faggy shit, you sould graduate from babyshit like that. If you want a specific piece of bbcode added I can see about that (recently found there's a nice interface for adding that so I don't have to bust open the source) but if you want a fancier editor you're barking up the wrong tree.

Iam runs riflows yeah.
Do you have contact info for him? I tried going to riflows but I ended up at some hostgator intercept site lol, is there like a ip I can go to or something to get aroun that lol? I honestly think he's a smart nigga, prolly smarter than me, and I don't want to be "at war" or whatever with him. Unless he's under some different handle he hasn't tried to contact me so far but I think it'd be worthwhile to get in touch with him even if it ends up in calling each other faggots giving it a shot can't hurt at minimum. -

Most of the "leave and calm down" is based on people not wanting to flip my shit.
That's definitely true to some extent, it may sound corny but there are niggas here who actually give a fuck about you, rando internet person or not, and don't want to give you advice that could fuck you up, so there is a tendency to play it safe. But there's also the fact that many of us are just fucking broken and have a hard time (or simply can't) maintaining intimate human relationships and that's a fucking bad place to be. You know your situation better than any of us for sure, you've said before you could "replace" your girl in terms of having another bitch in your bed tomorrow so maybe the advice of those of us with social issue doesn't apply, but being truly alone in the world comes with all kind of problems that you really can't just power through. We're social creatures and romantic partners and real friends aren't replaceable as easily as they might seem. I guess my point is that a human being who's been beside you for a while is worth a lot more than they might seem like in a moment of crisis and that's really apparent to people who don't have someone like that. So do what you need to blood, you know what you need, but I guess my point is you shouldn't throw away a person you have a real connection with lightly. It really is better to be taken advantage of slightly (because no relationship is truly equal and exactly half of all people are being taken advantage of to some degree) than it is to be all on your own.
​I was a child at one point, you know. Unfortunately I didn't spring forth from the aether.
Did you have friends as a kid malice? If you did I don't think you'd really regret that fact, you know we need other people. I know we're niggas who bullshit about politics and random shit on the internet (also I'm a lil drunk/high) but I do value our interaction. I'm not sure if I'd call us friends, mostly because I think you wouldn't (heh, I had a guy, one of the best friends I've ever had, who said the same thing to me). But if you acknowledge it or not I recognize you as a fellow human being, however broken you may be, and I care about your well being. You may not care about that fact but I do.
I love his high-falutin accent. I am not drunk.Lanny, go to a 4th of July/fireworks show on an LSD analog. Wear headphones so the noise won't be overwhelming. I'd stack it with non-interfering anxiolytics, if you had them. Propranolol, phenibut/baclofen, tofisopam, topiramate, lavender oil, ashwagandha.
That's actually not a bad idea. I think I'll head down to fort mason tomorrow night, that park is like my favorite part of the city. You can see the bridge, barely any homeless, only people you run i into in the marina are middle aged (no threat) or hipsters (my people). I don't need any anxiolytics, I guess all my neurotic personality traits are minor enough to not cause a significant nervous reaction, even powerful anxiolytics a la benzos really only work as hypnotics for me which I take to mean I'm just at zero or near zero anxiety most of the time. I've been taking ashwagandha for a while now for its androgenic effects in an attempt to muster up a passable beard, a minor but noticeable effect on facial hair growth rate so far but not enough to make growing a proper beard practical at this point. It's interesting that lavender supposedly has estrogenic effects, have you tried taking the two together? Were there noticeable effects in each on their own? Together? -
2015-07-04 at 3:19 AM UTC in Older Candy/Bubblegum MachinesAnyone know if there are any good sights to see in israel? Airfare is a nigger but it seems like a pretty unusual place to visit. My grandmother is a devout christian and visited jerusalem like, uhh, maybe 10 years ago now. It was a pilgrimage type scenario. I'm definitely down for some interesting religious landmarks but on its own I'm not sure the holy land is all that appealing. Is there much of interest in Israel besides religious sites?
I think I'd rather visit Istanbul on the whole. I mean again there's a large amount of religious association with that city but I think more than Jerusalem it's interesting on merit of its architecture and history. Maybe like a week in istanbul, then down the coast to Acre for a few days and then down to Jerusalem for another couple day or two. I wonder if I'd have any trouble crossing that border, but a trip that roughly follows the first crusade seems kinda badass in its own right.
Anyway, OP, are you talking about canadian currency or american? I know the sizes of coins are similar but for this kind of thing the difference seems like it could be significant.
P.S. Iron John, after doing a reverse image search I realize that image is from new york lol, I say the hebrew and thought israel immediately. -

Iam probably got drunk and spilled vodka all over the server.
Does Iam run riflows? I've been told he's trying to fuck my site over (and someone is trying (without a lot of force, although my dinky ass server is hardly bullet proof) to DDoS us) but he seemed like a trill nigga back on the fern. It'd be unfortunate if we found ourselves in some kind of shit flinging contest. -

2015-07-04 at 1:39 AM UTC in Recommend me an animu.
I watched a bit of Yuyushiki last night. I found it incredibly stupid and unfunny… it's just dumb schoolgirl's goofing off. Aside from some light fan service, it seem's clean enough for actual elementary schoolgirls to watch, and what is up with that simple cartoonish art? It's like a cross between Nichijou and Madoka's art, but way worse. Seriously, slice of life is a garbage genre that almost never produces anything worth watching… even Watamote which was moderately funny and amusing in the beginning, just became really sad and depressing with random moment's of intense fremdschämen.
So if you're not into slice of life yet then yuyushiki probably isn't the place to start. Have you tried K-ON? It at least has a tangible concept that justifies the kawaii.
I have a hard time explaining SoL to people who don't already get it, partly because I enjoy it on two very different levels. So like there's the obvious level right, cute klutzy girls are just plain fun to watch on their own. Some people don't respond the same way, which I sometimes thinks from people taking themselves or what they're watching too seriously, but I'm fully ready to chalk it up to different strokes. What doesn't fly though is shonen fight anime fans who think their prefered time sink has some kind of moral superiority. Even the worst trope out of SoL is no worse than the level of cringe that your typical "impossible odds" training sequence/surprise reversal/triumph though determination situation invokes, which is so painfully predictable and a cornerstone of like 95% of shonen.
And then the other level of slice of life is that is really challenges core assumptions in story telling that have existed, largely unquestioned, since Aristotle. It's not only possible but actually commonplace to watch a half hour or hour of slice of life anime and never encounter anything that resembles the classical definition of conflict. The best of the genre invites us to look at drama devoid of plot, a sort of transcendent emptiness, and asks us as intelligent genre savvy viewers to embrace that total malformation of story as pleasurable. This is what I meant when I brought up existential absurdism. When you spend a half hour of your life watching animated highschool girls making bad puns and doing nothing of import and still enjoying yourself you realize first how your pleasure in that experience is self-caused, that is you enjoy this because you choose as a radically free being to enjoy it, and secondly it brings to light the fact that all the classical model of drama is not a pattern laid into the world by god or human nature but by man and as humans we can, at any point, opt to reject or affirm that element of our being. When we enjoy watching meaningless cuteness the pleasure of doing so is not diminished by the fact our enjoyment is arbitrary but in fact enhanced because we realize that we alone are responsible for the meaning and joy we get out of it. In so doing we are liberated from our dependency on any external force for our satisfaction and realize that we are no man's slave, our very nature, our essence, is malleable and is preceded my our will to be otherwise. Namely our will to enjoy watching animated japanese schoolgirls goof around. -

I actually just heard about the stranger myself yesterday. I'm going to get a copy from the library later today. Right now I'm reading stephen kings the dark tower
Which book? I read the shit out of those books a few years ago but stopped somewhere, hmm, the wizard and the glass I think? -
2015-07-03 at 5:03 AM UTC in Ey sup amigosSince I'm apparently out of the loop here, OP: what was your zoklet username?
