Yeah, that’s good to clarify; my girl attends a special school in the US that originally was designed to keep native Japanese kids up to date with language while living in the US because of a father’s international work, etc., sometimes not even for a full semester. They’ve since had you start accepting US born kids too, so long as they’re proficient in Japanese.

They’re housed within a public school but are ultimately private so they don’t have access to facilities like that.

I mean it’s one of those implicit things. We’ve snuck some leftover pasta in there though, along with a rice ball… hehe

My kid just started TK and the school is serving such a high poverty area that they give free breakfast and lunch. It’s hard to pass up, and isn’t the worst quality in the world but still a little more sugar than I’d prefer. Fruit yes, vegetable no, and loads of dairy (which is a thing thanks to US subsidizing farms, this is where that surplus goes. Corn syrup, too though, unfortunately).

It’s also kind of a lot of trouble for two working parents to prep a lunch for multiple kids every day. Leftovers are great, but they don’t always hold for the few hours they’re in a bag. I’m allowed to bring food to them at 11:30am, but I’m working so it’s a non starter. My daughter also attends a Japanese Saturday school though and prepping a bento box is required.

My 4yo likes the line “teacher leave those kids alone!” She sings it quite loudly, but I don’t think she quite gets the meaning of the song, hehe

It’s a lot funnier when the door opens to just the toilet in view, no door but the elevator door.

Chirp. . . . Chirp. . . . Chirp. . . .

I WILL FUCKING BUY YOU SOME E BATTERIES, JUST STOP!

and that’s why I’m subscribed to their OnlyFlans.

It’s not just fundie Christians, unfortunately. Way too many cultures do this, religious or otherwise.

Plenty of good ones, but I think one that stuck with me was from Beatles Day in the Life. My mom sang it a lot and as an adult… I get it.

I read the news today, oh boy
About a lucky man who made the grade
And though the news was rather sad
Well, I just had to laugh
I saw the photograph

He blew his mind out in a car
He didn’t notice that the lights had changed
A crowd of people stood and stared
They’d seen his face before
Nobody was really sure if he was from the House of Lords

And so on. It’s also just a trippy, dark song.

I’ll play devil’s advocate and say there are non-AI render processes that can miss a horn (e.g. working from a clay model and scanned, for instance). Hell, even a lazy wand picker in Photoshop can lose a horn! I’ll even say that the very-AI looking 2D illustration can simply be a byproduct of a lack of creativity and the fact this is clearly shovelware. I lived through the Wii era, I can attest that shovelware can look this bad without AI, lol.

HOWEVER, it sure as hell looks like AI generated artwork and they could do a lot better defending their process. The irony is … I don’t really think the trailer is AI? It’s… honestly too unpolished and weird to be? Every effect used is something I’m certain I could do myself, lol.

I mostly remember DDS, which is my favorite from the series. I don’t remember clearly but I recall a very specific strategy to down him.

I think a lot of other games protags get to! Although only on NG+ in some cases.

Shin Megami Tensei III: Nocturne.

I think being the protag is arguably the best scenario here, assuming I survive the tutorial. The rest of y’all are very fucked, though.

I mean, today I saw a chocolate company ad saying no AI was needed. For chocolate. Anti-AI in a chocolate ad.

If Sees Candy is getting in on AI hate to sell shit, obviously people are tired of this crap. The bubble will burst.

So no one told you you would never find your way

You’re trapped forever, you’re lost, your one life’s D.O.A.~
It’s like you’re always stuck going down some stairs!
