i guess if we hit hatsu pon its 7700 for toitoi hatsu dora. 4 calls isn’t too bad from turn 5 either…
9s is genbutsu vs taking risk on 1m and neither are good for our hand
I was thinking I should dama in case I get a dangerous tile (7s?)… but would I actually fold if I drew something dangerous? not like I terribly need more points here but we also do wanna fold against shimocha
damabros…. i betrayed us…
muh 2s acceptance
tfw blind to hon itsu
yep realized it after the fact haha
uhhhhhhhhhhhh……………………. i wanted tan yao… that’s all…
ok in hindsight jun chanta seems less appealing than when I first thought about it and i dont need more points so just keep it simple and get the lower value win to move the dealership
im folding bro… 1% agari rate man
i dont want the 23m shape for open kuitan here. i do concede it would be faster
i fuckin riichid 6m instead of 5m. no tips bros btfo. luckily it didnt matter as i didnt win either way
I guess additional 8m acceptance is better? well what if I drew 7p and can then take 4p???????????????
useless terminal
out of the three choices I picked the WORST one! well I think it’s from a shimocha has hon itsu bro vs pure efficiency. advancing shimocha’s dora suit hon itsu is pretty bad bro
That’s all you get in a day. No more, no less. Everyone else in the world gets exactly the same number of hours per day. All the rich people, all the poor people have the same time. Sure, maybe they have access to resources that could allow them better use of their time (both relatively and absolutely), but all the same they better make them count…!
Periodic haul of goods…
New tapestry (:
Week’s not too bad but had a bunch of stuff to do for work so I’d wake up at 05:00 to get ready to leave the house for work and come back at 20:00-21:00… It’s not a good excuse to work out but it is what it is. Just gotta sleep ASAP when I come home late instead of goofing off. After all I get 1.5 hours to goof off on the way home from work so… goof off then? Hmm..
I’ve left my phone off for about 24 hours now? Maybe I can break the tendency to piss away hours on it (famous last words). For now my ‘break’ routine will be to jump in bed and roll around hugging one of my dakimakuras. There’s supposed to be some shit where you actually need to give your brain a break when taking a break, and using your phone/pc to look for shit/entertainment is not taking a break as far as it involves engaging your brain (and some other shit about dopamines).
I think we’re doing ok – it’s not 100% compliant but given the shit I have going on, it’s pretty good, actually. I was eating a bit at work, but I’m not yet concerned about my weight as I started taking creatine since last month… so my cope is weight not decreasing is due to water saturation from creatine. Will it hold? We’ll find out…
For weight lifting, apparently muscle memory is a thing so I should probably try to increase the weights a little more rapidly than my original schedule. Probably do some sort of 5×5 once a week for each lift and add 5 lbs to each the week after until it’s not sustainable, then switch back to the 5/3/1 program I’ve been using. There’s no rules here… so let’s see what happens.
Since I’ve been able to full clear my anki deck, I now have room to be adding cards to my deck. Ideally I’d be adding words I come across in エロゲ/同人誌, but going back to those and looking after the fact is a little annoying… so for now we are just sticking with words I miss from Kotoba Bot’s N1 reading quiz:
Maybe we can pass DJT’s n1 quiz in a few months… side goal to JLPT N2 at year end, I suppose.
Mahjong has been really sad lately… I thought about taking a short break cause it was making me upset, but I think token one game a day should be fine. Just don’t play a game trying to get a 1st to set the tone for the day… Be happy on your own (:
I don’t really know if I can make every post exciting… but in the end, life itself is quite ordinary… so let’s let this be a reflection of that too. It’s like when you’re reading those high drama stories where everything is going to shit and the characters facing peril are like “Damn… I just want to live a normal life man…” yet here we are living normal lives pining for excitement to escape the drudgery of our normal life! What if we just learn to take joy in living a normal life?
I guess I have to turn on my phone for this…. damn…
I wanted chuuren really badly… it wouldn’t come though…
8p is the best for offense I think but I wanted chuuren still
I guess it’s 4p8p shanpon tenpai but I didn’t wanna cut dora for a bad tenpai
man fuck ittsu. Probably right call though to keep it…
I guess fighting here with 6m tan dora 2 isn’t that strong. Just get tenpai yourself and riichi pin dora 2 instead! ):
Nan is once cut. So I suppose for purely offensive effiency this makes sense
hmm ok I was banking on picking up 3m but I guess it’s the safer discard. But I wanted ot lean on the 45678s shape so I felt cutting 8s is better. On the other hand I definitely don’t wanna cut 1m chanta to shimo either so cutting 2m will help lock that
I ain’t scared… but maybe I should be
honors noob…
Should have kept this for dama. I can better expand to lower manzu for tanyao to get something like 345666m to keep the san doko alive. I saw this after I discarded 5m lol
3m could have been useful if I kept 5m… noob
shimocha discards 3p… aesthetic haneman
I WANT MORE POINTS!!! but i guess technically sanmenchan 5800 is not necessary shabby and requires going back 1shanten. luckily kamicha would drop 6s4s back to back.
muh dora acceptance
honors noob…
it’s uhh what oneshanten? I figured Id try to make the ending wait better… but I oculd just toss 5m on the right pinzu draw… tfw dumb
Well we were doing pretty good until I took a break while wfh on friday… then I haven’t logged back on to work or done anything productive since then and have been in a death cycle of dopamine phone browsing and losing in mahjong whee. Losing is more tilting if you don’t have your real life straight, so we should do that first. I think we are good on weekdays at work but because I don’t have structure at home it is falling apart for now. Let’s practice!
Here is a dog playing with a tether ball on their front yard. It was having a blast so I couldn’t help but take a picture of it.
Had a kaisekidon! I think we can skip the ochazuke set and eat it as is. It’s not cheap, but not overpriced at $34. I would say it’s a fair price but worth it. Not something to eat regularly, obviously.
Washed the bedsheet yesterday… it’s a little bit discolored after two years… but at least it looks better after washing it than before washing it… a little gross hehe
Bought my flight for Japan for C109, in case oil prices spike because of shit going on across the world. If it goes up… cool. If it goes down… oops. I’ll have more days in Tokyo this time, so see you there!
pour one out for the iranian btw

Some lingering thoughts for myself. Maybe I should write these down and let it simmer and expand on it later. Maybe I should bust out the old writing journal so I don’t have to use a device and tempt myself into distractions…
You don’t need to be 100% compliant to make progress… but it would help you make the most progress…
No one else cares if you make progress or not. Do it for you’reself.
Get off the damn phone/pc wasting time!!!

This week’s daki theme is イチリ’s 堕天計画!
I do like アイミュ the most… but シャロエ and ルルーナ are cute too…!
i wish i would have done this like 4 turns later lol lets speed up dora 3 hands
this one stung lol I was like yeah lets fold with the 9s so in case it passes i have 3 more safe tiles. I can see 3 8ses so we should be good then BOOM haneman ok bro i lost
I really don’t think 5s is going to come out and 6m would help the hand so much. but at least we could have made other people fold!
i got tilted after the last deal in so i was like yeah i need to push this. which ended up working since I didnt deal in… folding is probably better yeah
I guess I should avoid furiten on 7m
8s acceptance is worth more than…. no acceptance?
asdfasoijr;opwjahioja;sdiofaiosj;oewnrt;owier fuck another haneman
