Chewing gum increases salivation which helps clean your teeth naturally.

Still not a replacement and it all depends on the gum you use. Most gums are not good for your teeth.

I've been posting on /kind/ since 2015. I've met people from the board in real life and made a lot of friends through /kind/. It's in a diminished state after being nuked so many times, but I still think the majority of people here are kind. I wish this discussion could have been more specific. What is kindness to you? To me, you are kind when you are considerate, friendly, and generous towards others. The /tech/ thread where people are learning together, and teaching others stands out to me as a particularly good example of kindness on /kind/.

The idea of friendliness might be to vague. Instead I would replace "friendly" with helpful since I believe helping one another is the substance of friendship.

/kind/'s done good since it's moved to wapchan, especially being part of a site that shares the same core values instead of being an island of decency like we were on 8chan.

To me /kind/ is evidence of the average 8chan user's excellence. Without my brothers from 8chan my world would be far more lonely and dark.

Anti-insanity countermeasures Friend 10/4/24 (Fri) 21:28:18 No.2563 [Reply]

I am slowly starting to go insane day by day. That's the best way that I can put what has been happening to me. I've been doing and have had things done to me that are unexplainable and basically physically impossible. Things that I would never do, I suddenly start doing for no reason. Over the most trivial and nonsensical things, I start screaming hysterically and mumbling to myself and no matter what I do, I can't stop it. This board is called /kind/ and it says "No Bully! Help Others!". I need help from anyone who has experienced something similar and, if possible, a countermeasure to ward off whatever this is, be insanity or something completely different. I don't even use the internet at all anymore, nor do I have any contact with other people, but I'm running out of ideas. Also, I know how to write Japanese so please talk to me in Japanese if you can, just for fun.

you write so well. perhaps your solace lies in poetry?

That day I saw beneath dark clouds,
the passing light over the water
and I heard the voice of the world speak out,
I knew then, as I had before,
life is no passing memory of what has been
nor the remaining pages in a great book
waiting to be read.

It is the opening of eyes long closed.
It is the vision of far off things
seen for the silence they hold.

Why do people hate that I am carefree? Friend 11/15/24 (Fri) 21:24:23 No.2830 [Reply]

This is the second time it’s happened and it’s killing my mood. They’re mad at the fact that I am just trusting the process on whether I get hired at this job I applied to. They told me to go apply for other jobs but the thing is I already did and I technically have two more interviews this month. I do not control the hiring managers’ decisions nor do I control the applicants who applied for the same jobs. Maybe there are people better suited to the jobs, how am I supposed to know? I’m sorry that I am carefree and understand I ultimately don’t control situations. These people are such a buzzkill, man.

It might suprise ya all, but we are approaching november pretty quickly.

So I thought, some /kind/ new years eve party could be fun. Would be fun.

By pure coincidence I also got my first DJ controller recently ((੭˶ᵔ ᵕ ᵔ˶)੭₊˚❀༉‧₊˚) and I'm learning quickly how to mix music. Wouldn't it be nice to play a liveset at the hypothetical new years eve party? That way I stay motivated to train on the deck and I could give something unique to /kind/.

Tell me what ya think and also if ya got more ideas for an new years eve party.

I had to break up with my BF today and it hurts a lot, even though it's been a very short time since we started dating.

Ergonomics Friend 9/18/24 (Wed) 14:46:25 No.2473 [Reply]

Is your workstation /kind/ to your body?
I've been trying to get serious about good ergonomics, but there's so much information and so many products out there that it's difficult to know what to spend money on and what to do in general. Does /kind/ have an ergonomic set-up? Are there are any ergonomic products you like (or dislike)? Not just for computers, but even things like book stands and ergonomic pens. Are there any stretches you like? Do you do any other activities to help prevent/reduce pain, like grip training?
A lot of people swear by trackballs and mechanical keyboards. Have you ever tried these? Did they work for you?

Friend 9/19/24 (Thu) 18:19:22 No.2481

I've been thinking about this lately. I don't have a workstation and until now I've spend most of my time in bed but its killing my back. So I have a desk and prop the laptop up on a couple books so I'm not straining my neck. Personally, I'd say mechanical keyboards are a bit overrated. They are nice but not as great as people make them out to be. Avoid shallow chiclet keyboards.

Gaming chairs are trash. They aren't comfortable at all and hurt your back. You want a chair with a nice curve, a good head rest, and you can lean back in. Sadly, good office chairs are expensive so I'm saving up.

I like to do this at the window, using the window's ledge instead of a table like in the video. Especially while working from home and listening to some boring Zoom call.

This is also pretty good, and the first one you can do while sitting. I don't have the problem mentioned at the beginning of the video but this still feels really good, especially for my left leg which is pretty tight in this position.

Its got a homey feel, although i'd like a better office chair with a higher backing since it ends slightly below my shoulders and i cant lean back in it
But i sit in a lot of weird positions in my chair so my choice probably wont improve much other than comfort
My desk is deep but fairly small, and i keep most of my possessions in my room, in addition to sleeping in this room
this keeps everything within arm reach even if I have my headphones on
My keyboard is also a 65% one which some say is ergonomic since you move your hands less to reach different keys, but I just think its more convenient and gives more space to put food on my desk without the keyboard getting in the way

That filter was mostly there to counter the influence of /b/tards who were flooding the board at that time. I felt like they were drowning out a new culture that was still forming. I disagree with that line of thinking now, but I don't mind adding it back if it's just something people enjoy. Furthermore, I added a filter for the neighbor word, so I have an excuse to post this image.

I love my friends and neighbors.

I guess it doesn't really matter since everyone is so well-behaved on /kind/ nowadays. Changing the gamer word to neighbor is very funny though.
