This week is no homework week for us.

I have homework but am procrastinating by looking back at old sites I used to go on.

Oh.

Oh hey, when did you get your old username back

[_Ai_]

Oh are we one-upping each other's college workloads? Cool.

4 final programming projects, 1 research paper, 2 final exams, all with about 2 weeks notice, on top of working 2 jobs. Did I win?

Ouch. When's the due date?

I have a durian I need to eat in the next 20 minutes.

Stop whining.

you talk as if it's a bad thing

Cosplay project?

For my character design subject yeah.

I think it was sometime a few months back when Jeff allowed for a one-time username change.

Oh.

I actually watched Fate/Stay Night recently.

[Boomerang]

Good anime. The Fate series is one of the few I finished.

Speaking of which, I should start watching AoT Season 2.

Gilgamesh is superior to Lancer. Just saiyan.

Has anyone seen handmaidens tale?
I'm normally interested in stories about dystopian futures so I'm curious.

But it seems like some sick fantasy designed to ooze feminism in a transparent comparison to modern society where the author is simply imagining the worst of the worst rather than something well flushed out.
I mean I'm going to have to suspend my disbelief BIG TIME, to think that the women in this story went from what's essentially our world to some crazy misogynistic hell-scape over the course of one lifetime. It just seems to defy basic storytelling and...logic...

How am I supposed to stomach the notion that our modern society is supposedly going to be all on board with enslaving women overnight the way depicted in this show/book? It doesn't make any sense. So I guess what I want to know is...is this worth my time? Or is this just some typical paranoid feminists fears generalizing and vilifying men hypocritically?

Because my senses are telling me it's the latter, but my inner skeptic wants to tell me it may be the former.
Insufficient data.

All you talking about school, makes me feel old.
But hey no exams for me.
