O hai there! Do you want to buy a koto, but you aren’t sure where to look, or what to look for…or what to look *out* for? Struggling to find resources in English, and stumbled across this page? Grab a cup of tea and settle in for an info dump! This is based on my experience researching and buying a koto outside of Japan as a non-native but proficient speaker of Japanese, and on about 1-1/2 years of taking koto lessons from 大師範/master instructors. This doesn’t cover everything, and I am not an expert, but I did sift through a heckton of information in Japanese with the goal of getting the most reliable bang for my koto buck…or yen, I guess. If you have tips or experience of yo...

**TL;DR:** I've spent years building a 152-page constitutional framework (edited down from 1,200 pages I wrote in development) to solve the "post-truth" problem for our future. It uses 8 federated councils, AI pattern detection with zero executive power, fork governance when consensus fails, and a "right to be wrong" to prevent truth infrastructure from becoming a totalitarian weapon. Looking for people who understand governance, cryptography, or AI alignment to help me break it. **(Warning-Long-Post)** We're approaching a threshold where video evidence can be perfectly faked, coordinated disinformation can flood every verification system, and the gap between...

Hi so I’ve only had my rats for about a month now. I was told at the pet store they were both boys and I have a vet appointment scheduled, but I guess the pet store was wrong because while I was at class this morning my apparently girl rat gave birth to a litter. I already followed some advice of a friend who had rats for years and got a separate cage for the dad to keep the babies safe and I provided lots of food for mom including some cat food for extra protein and I’m going to wrap the main cage in hardware cloth so the babies can’t escape once they’re able to explore. I’m just wanting to see if anyone has any additional advice so the babies can grow up healthy and stay out of d...

ALL CHARACTERS ARE 18+. He'd had an awful day, although that wasn't much of a surprise. It was the first anniversary of his friend's death, time was running out on his eviction notice, his water had stopped working, and finals were coming up yet he barely had the time or energy to even study for any of them. He was barely scraping by on his tuition payments already, and it's not like he had any family to cushion him if he fell. Life just didn't seem to cut him any sort of slack; dried tears streaked his face, his movements shuddered as he dialed his best friend's number. But as soon as she answered the phone, everything would start to be okay again. She always ...

"There is no beast more dangerous than a man who has lost everything." The times are dark. Hunger and misery are commonplace, and social divisions widen like abysses. Governments, devoid of morality or remorse, fund multi-million dollar war machines while denying cures for their people's illnesses. In this world of steel and corruption, tragedy was about to claim its most prominent name. That day in Central Park was, paradoxically, spectacular. The sky shone with an unusual blue, and harmony was felt in every corner of the festival. Among the crowd, Donald Morden enjoyed a peace that belied his military rank. He was a loving father. He walked alongside his wife and young s...

Hi all — I’m hoping for some practical guidance because I’ve run out of ideas. I live in a townhouse in Ontario, Canada (special prize for whoever guesses what city I live in). My unit is one of two attached homes that share a very narrow, covered side corridor between them. The passage runs the length of both houses, has a gravel floor, is roofed overhead, and is open at both ends. Both my home and my neighbor’s have exterior wall vents and several white PVC pipes that exit into this shared alleyway. My unit is on the right side of this corridor; my neighbor is on the left. My immediate neighbors cook daily, often with their rear kitchen window open (facing their backyard, not t...

I have struggled with clothes and clothes shopping my entire life. I need to find some professional outfits ASAP. It's hard enough for me to find jeans and tshirts I can tolerate. I'm plus-size AFAB. Due to sensory issues, I absolutely need clothes with a little bit of stretch that move with my body. Textures are also a concern and I don't do well with anything that feels tight. Trying on clothes is super overwhelming for me. It's worse in a physical store, but shopping online is a much slower process. The whole thing is so distressing even without the time pressure and feelings of shame, and I'm trying to get through this without triggering a meltdown. I'm wel...

I have a few Horror Cosplays that I’ve worked on for years now and wear semi-often to cons and events, mostly Jason Vorhees, Michael Meyers, and Leatherface (I’m built for them lol), and I’ve always struggled with storage. Thus far I’ve been using clear bins from Target or the like, and although fine for what they are, the fake blood seems to glue layers together, the clothes get some pretty intense folds/creases that are essentially impossible to iron out, and telling what’s what is not easy. I’m just curious of anyone out there has a better solution to storing completed projects (that you need regular access to) not for deep storage. I’ve considered hanging them, but then ...

We always get a cold spell or two in january/february, but it definitely has been more days of freezing temps than usual this year. I see SO many people walking around in insufficient winter clothing because most Philadelphians can just tough it out for a few days/couple weeks per year, but this year it has gotten BAD. Y'all be walking around looking uncomfortable as **** and I can't take it anymore. So here's for anyone who has never studied the science of dressing warm. **BOTTOM LAYER:** Get thin cotton long johns and matching shirt (uniqlo heattech is the way to go. super thin, super warm.). sweat wicking wool socks (costco brands works, military grade ones (like fox riv...

I'd like to replace this shutoff valve for the intake to my water heater. The current valve handle comes right off and I can't shut the water off going to the water heater. I can shut off the main, but then i cut the water to my house. Once I cut this valve out, there will be about a 3" gap between the pipes. Is there a good valve that can be reliably installed here? Or do I need to replace the whole pipe so the gap isnt as large?

does anyone know if any stores around Augusta that sell cotton/linen shirts, pants, and/or dresses? I’m looking for smthn similar to these images.

Some pretext; I acknowledge that this post will obviously be one side of the whole story and by no means am I trying to put her down or deny her hardships. This will be a long post. Posting from a burner account as she uses Reddit often. My girlfriend and I have been together for just over three years, and have been living together for roughly 14 months. Two weeks ago, she left abruptly while I was at work to stay at her friends house for a week on the basis of supporting another friend, however as it turns out she was intending to end the relationship. This decision to stay at a friends house was made after a small argument we had two nights before, the argument mainly regarding my perce...

We come from the envelope method and are trying to modernize (and not carry fists full of money around!). As I understand it, the equivalent would be the rollover method with MM. At the end of the month you add the new month's money to the category and keep going. When purchasing, a quick look at the phone would show how much is left in that category to spend and stay in budget. As we look to MM, could someone share a screen shot of the budget categories from a phone or and example of how you quickly check when headed to the store? My thought is that a quick screen on the phone shows what is left in the virtual envelope. Deeper evaluation would be done at home from the desktop. Is...

I've posted a few times in the past few weeks about my journey with the MW5 games, and I've come around on some things. Here's some tips that might help you have more fun with Clans vs Mercs. If some of this is obvious to you - that's cool, these tips aren't for you then : 1. **The UX choices in Clans and Mercs reflect the types of games they are**. Mercs was about being an underfunded and scrappy mercenary company: hence, having to rely on salvage to scrounge together mechs and weapons. You can go to the equivalent of retail stores, and buy any kind of mech you want. There's only one currency type, and that's C-Bills. Clans however is about being a milita...

I know it's been said, but "free shipping on your next order" for cancelling the anchor item in a bundle is worse than nothing. TU support lurkers, please stop doing this. This is garbage, especially for people using the new customer promo code or VITs. If I'm in a store and somebody bumps into me and muttered a quick, "oops, sorry" we're good. If somebody bumps into me and then hands me the used tissues from their pocket and explains that it is to compensate me for my trouble, it's weird and kind of insulting. The good news is that this means I now spent $0 on clothes for myself in the month of January. 🎊

Hello, I recently purchased this jacket and was wondering if anyone here can possibly date this jacket for me. I reached out to Gap / Banana Republic online and they authenticated that the jacket is a style number by the 6 digit code. However, due to it's age, they can't find anymore information on it. I just wanted to know if the F06 - is from Fall 2006. I know Gap usually dates their clothing. However I know this is an older piece. https://preview.redd.it/8xo16svfp4ig1.jpg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=60a5dea61abeb925cb28961b6ecc93b2d2d82f1e https://preview.redd.it/nsbfqtvfp4ig1.jpg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=b1...
