the host is able to mute people's mics. so either the prof doesn't know how to or isnt bothering

I would potentially be interested in attending a CS/opsec/tech class. I'd probably be more interested in opsec stuff than like learning to code and to read code. I mean the two are probably related, but at this point I really just need even the most basic opsec guidance.

I used to only eat non-vegetarian if it was free. Like, if I was at a bbq and people were grilling meat anyway I'd eat it. Or if somebody made a bunch of some meat dish for a party and had leftovers they were going to throw out I'd take them. But if I was spending money I wouldn't eat non-veg.

I don't do that anymore but maybe that's something to try if youre thinking about going veg but don't want to make the full commit yet?

Mutual Aid Disaster Relief is also supposed to be a good group! They're definitely doing something about Laura. https://mutualaiddisasterrelief.org/

Sorry I'm commenting on all your posts today lol, I just got on this site like last night and I been just exploring it

Donated a nice 20, like other people won't post a receipt cause I don't think I'm smart enough to not dox myself. Thank you for posting this!

No problem, thats great! I'd put a disclaimer though because I know some of the info on the map is out of date, and some of those chapters might be either dead or not that active. Also its horizontal organizing so each chapter is their own entity, just using the same name. DC was a really good group though and very welcoming, and the info on that map should be accurate, I can't vouch for every single food not bombs group though.

This is a great resource! For DC I wanted to recommend the DC food not bombs chapter. I can definitely vouch for them being very active and a great group of people, at least as of a couple years ago (I had to move away from DC). They don't have a website, but here's the Food not Bombs map http://foodnotbombs.net/info/locations/.

I see what you're saying, and honestly those two things were also what gave me pause about this interpretation.

The way I explained it to myself was that the whole thing about Chroniko's memories being sold and then her talking about wanting to buy them back one day was Yuasa's way of putting in the viewer's head that, okay, those memories that are sold, it's possible to get them back. Which is what I think the mom ultimately did with her own memories. It makes sense that not only the mom, but also Chroniko would have to sell memories to get by. I can't explain the selfishness of the kids though.

I guess it doesn't make sense to me why the mom would just have Chroniko's memories lying around, and decide to inject them right after she sells off Chroniko's body. Unless she didn't buy back her own memories, but Chroniko's for her own use? But I don't know, with the progression of the mom in the show it seems like Yuasa wants us to start off hating her and viewing her as this evil stepmother, and by the end having a more sympathetic view of her, with her playing the piano and crying out. Warp's expression also changes from anger at the mom to more sadness at the situation. The cynical view to me also muddies the show's theme of class war, if she is just this abusive woman and has always been this abusive woman, then she's still selling Chroniko for economic reasons, but she also would hate Chroniko anyway and try to get rid of her because that's how she is. But I interpreted more as capitalism destroying human and family relationships - she's not an abusive woman because that's just who she is, she's an abusive woman due to living under capitalism, and the way Yuasa shows that is with these memories - she's been forced to sell her good memories under capitalism, transforming her into this abusive stepmother character and destroying the once good relationship she had with her daughter.

This anime is amazing. I used to be heavy into anime, but the past few years I've just been bored by everything I've tried to watched, and usually stop partway through. This anime is reminding me of why I got into anime to begin with. Thank you so much whoever started this community rewatch and decided to start with Kaiba.

I guess I don't really understand the story w the mom - Why did her memories begin to come back as the episode progressed? My interpretation is that as times got tough, she had to sell her good memories to get by, and in so doing forgot why she loved Chroniko and became this evil stepmother character. So she sells Chroniko bc she doesnt want to care for her and so she can buy her own memories back. And then she injects her good memories when she buys them back (theres that scene where she injects something into her memory chip), and all her good memories of Chroniko, her husband, her sister start flooding back. Does this interpretation make sense to anyone? Or did you see the story w the mom different?
