>but I definitely don't consider it an anime.
What criteria do you use to define "anime"? Some say it's the art style that defines it, others say an animation is "anime" if it was made in Japan.
>I hate Netflix and don't personally use it.
Ditto. It's sucked for years now.
>Another thing I'd like to mention is the music was probably the most disappointing part.
I thought the music was pretty good. But again, it's probably because I had different expectations. Considering I also liked the videogame (I waited until about version 1.5 where it was more stable), maybe I just have bad taste.

Any literature or other media you would recommend? I've had a love of tech since I was a child and have despised it's over-centralization and corpratization since my teens, but I'm still relatively new to cyberpunk as a genre.

This page has neat recommendations for different types of media in its header. I've recently read a few of William Gibsons books. Really neat, Neuromancer is a must in this genre.

 No.667

I just finished it. The exposition sucked, but honestly it was really good until the ending. The ending was unforgivably bad. They threw away all the characterization they'd made in favor of "haha big robot man" and then just slapped a crappy epilogue on it that basically just says "the real cyberpunk was the friends we made along the way." I really wanted to enjoy it, the writers are genuinely talented, but I don't know if it was some jack ass in a suit or just poor decision making that led to a literal shit show. The only other complaint I have about the show is that, like mentioned before, it basically just has a cyberpunk setting and doesn't really explore or make any points out of the genre.

used to be one, animals on two legs is cool. drawing animals on two legs interacting was fun and cheered me when I was a kid, I guess it's because I find animals more comforting than people.

"Why do furries exist, no offense."

I, too, want to know why furries exist, but I DO intend to cause offense, unlike OP. See attached image for a rundown on the typical furry life situation and mental condition

 No.5344

From what I understand, furries exists because:
-People want to recreate or create their own, detachable identity. Specifically one that they have made from scratch. Humans have had a long fascination with animals and anthropomorphized humans. The internet allowed for near instant communication across large distances and the ability to others with the same extremely niche interests. Combine the three and you get furries. It was basically a right time, right place kind of deal.
Now that they are an already established group and we are even more connected than we previously were, they can better draw in people.
>>5342
>losers
That's kinda what started this whole thing, is just losers who wanted their own, separable identity.
>creeps & pedos
These same kinds of people are also the same kind of people with identity issues. Not saying everyone person that struggles with identity is a pedophile. ON top of that, people are plugging into The Wired younger and younger. That naturally attracts pedos. It also causes said kids who get exposed to fringe furry fetishes and pedophilia to essentially get indoctrinated, leading to a downward spiral of depravity.
TL;DR, The industrial revolution and its consequences for mankind have been a disaster.

You answered your own question: money. Also, your internet requires server hardware somewhere and workers, both of which need continual pay for upkeep/labor costs.

Day 2: 2022/08/15:
I kept my self busy with classes for most of the day. Never felt horny
Day 3: 2022/08/16:
Same thing as yesterday, but I felt horny for about 5 min at work for no reason

Anyone else ever worry that these gizmos and gadgets are just a fancy lightshow that keeps us occupied/docile while those up top steer history?

Not that they are engineered with this purpose, but they certainly seem to me to serve this role in society.

I understand his point, and even agree with it, but the question its about:

>Anytime that I've attempted to chime in about how "woke" a franchise is now or to persuade folks to torrent. I get a flouride stare and hear crickets as I just turn around to walk away.


Why would you talk to those people, instead of talking with your friend circle that are on the same page as you instead?
That is what they do, why can't you do the same? Is there any difference between your friend group and their friend group?

 No.2233

>>2232
Im also not him, but i think its because his friend group simply do not exist, so his only option its to talk to them, that however would cause him to be rejected.
Because lets face it, if you're identify with fatlus in any sort of way nobody will listen to you, it doesn't matter how right you are or how cool you thing is, you are simply not at their level, because even if you are the cream of the crop authority on what its kino to consume, it still just consuming, while those people will have other things to do, like friendship, sex and other activities, no matter how banal and souless he might think they are, in society, those tangible things still hold more weight than being really in depth into something, unless that something directly benefits others in a tangible way.

Hot take: Bread and circus are necessary for a functional society

 No.2333

>>2332
Not exactly scorching. You'd find lot's of agreement with the patricians of then and now, but only because their interests are served in such ways.
I also think there is room to edge out a difference between B&C and perhaps a more genuine culture that serves communal, spiritual, and psychological needs, instead of the material interests of the few.

 No.2335

>>2333
You're missing his point, or at least my point that I've grafted onto his words: society needs exactly the kind of bread and circus you direct your ire towards, not your hippie-dippy, anarchist healing-circles.
Society, as I see it, needs these immense outventings of energy, lest the energy accumulate. You think, spontaneously, the decentralized masses would conjure their own great works. I think you're right, but it would organically come to take a centralized form more akin to Egyptian or Roman public works.
The problem with the bread and circus today is precisely that it takes form at the individual level. This is because not only does the individual sometimes "fall through the cracks" as it were of these diversions of energy, (in my view this, in part, accounts for the "lone gunman phenomenon") but the community, or nation, also fails to divert its accumulations.
Just to put it simply, we need bread and circus (communal projects of waste) that is undertaken on the national, or in our times international, level to ensure we can exist in a society that doesn't self-immolate.

I don't think I'll ever be able to explain why I love Lain so much, maybe it's because of how much I connect to it to the point I think I am Lain, maybe it's because of how dear the subject of Lain is, maybe it's because Lain has opened my eyes and mind to what reality is. but Lain will always be one of the dearest things to me no matter what, I don't think I'll ever grow out of it, and I don't wish to grow out of it too. Lain has saved me from what feels like an endless loop at the time, I know what my path is now all because of this one anime my ex partner showed me. perhaps she also showed me that there isn't only good or bad to and extend, I'm glad I gave this anime a watch, otherwise I don't know where I'd be right now. And to add to that, she reminded me why I was fascinated with the web from the beginning at a time I felt lost.

Show case your favorite bedroom punk / epunk/ incelcore artists
The scene is pretty much done given the e-drama that ensured.
Its such a varied genre where no 2 bands sound alike, kinda has a cyberpunk/dystopian feel to it pretty cool for something internet based.
