@spockitty when you have this for your screen you don't need more than one. I prefer this one 34 inch 21:9 1440p G-SYNC 100FPS monitor to my 3 monitor set up at work. Not having bezels is a game changer literally.

I have 1920x1080 on all of my 3 monitors, and I suppose I could work with two windows on a single monitor? But when I need to play a game on one, watch a tv show/play music on the other and work on the 3rd? you just can't do all that on just one monitor

True that,

But I  also have a TV in my room, so to watch TV I put that one on 😛 

But surely if I wanna watch youtube and doing some stuff on the same time it would be nice to have another screen,.. but well, no place for that anyway.

My monitor is also 1920x1080

@Zeus well that does look sexy, but unfortunately I'm not made of money, holy shit my previous car cost this much ^^;; good for you man~!

I think I saw this one in a setup of Unbox Therapy's guy on yt. but then he has all the craziest tech around. 

Tbf spending the money on vices (such as VK) instead of food is absolutely relatable. 

Uh-oh I can relate too much, other vices first food for self comes last lol

Next on the NEWS: Unhealthy obsession with Japanese twinks the leading cause of death via malnutrition! 

He's the gift that keeps on giving [absolute cringe]

when it turned nasty I couldn‘t believe it.

@monkeybanana4 haha nothing that exciting, I was Road Kamelot from D.Gray-Man with Lero as a prop (I still have that umbrella somewhere!) ^^ I don't even remember why I chose that one, I wasn't that big of a fan but I did get a few surprise jump-hugs out of it XD

@spockitty Oh, I loved that umbrella character XD But that's pretty cool~ I'm sure your outfit must have looked really good  I loved Road Kamelot's outfit with her thigh high stockings. It's been a while since I last watched the anime, though😅 The last character I remember cosplaying as was Magician's Valkyria (from Yugioh). So many years ago, lol 😂

@monkeybanana4 Haha I still wear the skirt I sew with my mom for that cosplay to this day X'D I've never gotten into Yugioh but that outfit looks complicated O-O kudos dude!

hmm this made me lol, just cuz growing up with crappy downloading methods meant that I was content with having the one song I heard, without looking into it and realizing it was from an entire album.

now you have the option and awareness to get the whole album cuz that’s the online web’s job and people still will just get the one song lol.

If I had to look into all the albums I only have one song of, I think I’d die lol it’s just too late for me.

lol my initial experience is pretty much the same, but I do remember as soon as I was able to dig information about the releases' contents, I was spending hours collecting each song from the darkest corners of the internet to make it complete. it's a deep rooted issue of mine is what I'm saying X'D 

see! I'm at a turning point basically, the only digital stuff I own, is releases that were only ever released digitally. 

@123Sandman321 ohwell, my usual style of cooking is throwing whatever 3 remaining ingredients I have left in my fridge and call it sustenance~ 

that's very generous of you LOL 

Haha, it doesn't sound too bad  One of these days you'll create a delicious recipe with your cooking style  

@monkeybanana4 you have much more faith in my cooking skills than I do XD

@Euronymous Kyuho of Madman's Esprit himself explained why there isn't much of a Vkei scene in Korea. In general, it's really hard to get your music out there in Korea, because you have to get your music approved by the government and shit.

oh,that's correct.totally forgot about that.indeed south korean's government have a huge control of their entertainment in general.i remember when they censored  PSY's MV at the part where he kicks a road cone lol. not to mention T.O.P who apologized in public for smoking weed and other examples over there.it's really bad when a government tries to '' educate" their population with iron fist like a big father.

sk starting to sound like nk if you're in the kpop business O.o

that explains their latest musical direction then...

They're endorsers

good gig, where can I get me an endorsement like that

The grocery store. Just go for it.

y'all testing me srsly. I get people staring at me when I don't try, do you rly want me to cause a riot at my local grocer? cause I totally will >.>

I would take the opportunity to waltz in to get my bread like a diva. It would be fun.

Ohhhh, i see what you mean!

This, so much. The "restore" function saves lives.

I’ve been there for sure haha

Congratz, welcome to the elite!

thank you thank you, I'm expecting all the VIP content to blow my mind

One of us. One of us!

There's nothing good in this

dostedt? nihonese ga wakaranotunderstand...

Well nothing will ever top y'alltachi, but this served as a decent b-rate entertainment :'D 

I KNOW RIGHT 😒

he says he eats more than the rest of the members....... BITCH WHERE

I've just noticed that he's posting calorie count on each thing and if it's all that he eats each day..... I'm surprised he has strenght enough to walk =.= 

I mean... why people would celebrate someone's death lol

lol not celebrate the death but their life achievements? I feel like that's a thing people do after some famous person dies, hence why I was worried~ 

Ah, I see.

I used to be on twitter in like 2007, it was a completely different site lol

but APPARENTLY no one updates their site these days, it's all on dozens different social networks so what can you do >.> 

Yup, updating websites is for some weird reason just not "in" anymore 😂

Pretty much why I made a Twitter account, lol XD

^ Agreed. I think I flinch whenever a picture of him pops up on my feed, LOL.

well I was never a fan of nokubura so I've just discovered this gem! 

I loved Nokubura (until the exodus) and even then, that dude gave me the heeby jeebies!

lol, sorry? :'D 

I hadn't noticed and now I can't help but be distracted by it 😂

haha, I'M SORRY but also, let's unite in misery. totally ruins my ~aesthetic™~ 

I didn't notice before cause I had a white background >.> 

how did I get to see Gackt? via divine blessing for sure. 

or how was I reminded? via last.fm lol. was checking the dates of some old concerts I've been to and this old gem popped up.

I watched a DVD of his once and, gosh, it's so beautiful. So many remarkable (funny and emotional) moments.

who

well, after a traumatic deep dive into Japanese google, I think they were talking about ちんちん侍ゲーム 

which doesn't help me much, cause I've no idea what's happening in that video ^^;; 

well, that's still about Penis..... lol

still laughable to talk about it for 2 times in a row on twitcast XD

Well yeah, that's why I finally got curious lol it was a viewer that brought it up tho, and I think it was the same person the second time as well~ but the guys picked up the topic pretty enthusiastically! XD

throw in some hot sauce and a lime and definitely haha

where would you throw in the hot sauce and where the lime, because it could work in either configuration? ^.~

exactly lol

I would just moan and make sex noises really loud when my neighbors were arguing. Their arguments tended to end real fast after.

LOL I shall note this for future reference, however I know they have elementary-aged children, I want the revenge to be on the parents, not the children  

Scream "KIDS, EARMUFFS" beforehand. At least you warned them.

what i do is search "merry メリー" in music and i get more accurate results

well yeah, if I search internationally I do the same, but believe you me, it wouldn't appear to anyone in my country to insert Japanese into the listing title :'D what is more, some shops' search engines don't even recognize kanji/kana as an actual language lol~ 

oh, that's just how i search for them on jp sites xD yeah, searching for them locally is a different story lmao

ヰ ヱ

Archaic fun stuff! I'm always like "oh no not again" when I see them in lyrics lol. One day I won't be like magikarp with archaic, I swear. Soon™

1. hiragana "we" (historical kana)Obsolete term

2. We (kana)ゑ, in hiragana, or ヱ in katakana, is a nearly obsolete Japanese kana. It is presumed that ゑ represented . It is thought that, after ゑ and え came to denote the same pronunciation as イェ in the Kamakura period, they came to be pronounced as the modern エ [e e]; there is also the view that the pronunciation difference between the two kana remained until the Taishō period.

1. hiragana "wi" (historical kana)Obsolete term

Wikipedia definition

2. Wi (kana)ゐ, in and that ゐ and い indicated different pronunciations until somewhere between the Kamakura period and the Taishō period when they both came to be pronounced [i i]. Along with the kana for we, (ゑ in hiragana, ヱ in katakana), this kana was deemed obsolete in Japanese in 1946, and replaced with い and イ. It is now rare in everyday usage; in onomatopoeia and foreign words, the katakana form ウィ (U-) is preferred.

I'm pretty sure they're paid on a per-song basis (one of Gackt's former ghostwriters spilled this), if paid for composing etc at all;

iirc some of them are basically salaried employees, but I can't remember if this applies to all bands, or starting at a certain popularity once their label signs them full-time.

your answer might in fact have risen even more questions for me lol

my knowledge of behind-the-scenes financial goings of music industry is surface at best and I got a feeling vk is not the best place to start digging deeper

thank you though! 

vk/japanese entertainment is different from western music (in the west, record producers are paid once their songs are sold to someone + they might get a cut from each live performance, each licensing deal i.e. advertizing or movie tie-ins, etc, depending on their contract);

japanese entertainment has a talent agency that owns the band/artist and it sells the artist to a record label, and from there, it gets less clear for me because some artists are open about working for non-vk activities and getting paid for those, with others it's rly quiet (they might not get any composing money at all, settling for an office job style salary that covers everything they record and pitch to the label, regardless if that stuff ends up released under their name or sold further.)

Gackt (a self-proclaimed self-made/self-raised chanteuse and composer) paid his support musicians around $5k for composing his singles at his peak, iirc.

Yup...that’s why I DESPISE Kisaki.

On the other hand, some of his old bands are fantastic. Phantamasgoria is one you may have heard of. Highly recommend. 

Just...try not to think of Kisaki as the bassist of the band. Pretend it’s like... I don’t know Heath or someone likeable lol.

I know Phantasmagoria mostly by name and some of the more popular songs, never gotten into them. 

I don't think I could even if I wanted to listen to them now. I would just think back to the shitstorm, and frankly there are many other good bands that I could listen to in their place, without getting upset so~
