...but the sound is going to be terrible without any speaker boxes...

I agree, she's good with mix-and-matching her outfits. Sadly, the intersection of things I love and things I need for day-to-day function as an adult is slim.

^^ According to calculations, Akyuu is going to die somewhen around this month, apparently.

^ Yes and no. As many things it bears the risk of one, but the yeast used in winemaking and those that infect humans are different kinds, so there is no elevated risk.

I'm curious what Junko's up to

Dating 20-year-old kids

I'm less bothered by the age gap than that she brags by showing their private messenger conversations. Like, besides risking a lethal dose of second-hand emberassment to her friends, it's also intrusive and a massive breach of trust.

@Imheretodie
Since even males can lactate, it has little to do with "MILFness".

@Hylarn
Guess you're right, looks like you can use most rennets as coagulant (albeit with inferior results). Not sure whether it's worth breeding microbes (hundreds of lab hours) or folding the enzyme yourself (massive distributed computing project, BoobCheese@Home).

^^ However it's not just about fat content. Each species' milk requires it's own rennet, and since humans are not ruminant, I'm not sure there is any way to get some for study even if you were to ignore the, uh, implications of harvesting it. Yet you could probably make whey cheese.

Gee folks, thanks to you I spend too much time wondering whether human milk could be fermented into cheese... Pushing that thought aside, it's great to see that Ro_G is back at the yuri; last I remember they had to caugh up with some really ... weird commissions.

Somebody please write a witty comment for me because my brain is to busy sqealing at vampire yuri.

This is good. Very good in fact. Some might call it perfect.

But who appraises the appraisers (and are they dating)?

Yet sadly I have to side with 1st Class here. Handholding (even outright hugging and kissing) mustn't mean romantic attraction, depending on the cultural context.

The true yuri is hallucinating an entire dramatic love story after spotting two women giggling together on the bus.

Amen.

Hey, a non-angsty MariAlice story!

I can't exactly tell her... That I'm feeling unsafe being with her...

Nevermind then.

Emo not pulling every girl? Unimaginable!
Also, GRS- ist still just below achieving a supermajority in Not yuri at 46%. Keep trying!

This bitch really has the nerves to tell the mc to get marry also and pretending to care about her kid now after wasting 6 years. Like bitch you deserve to get slap harder and multiple times in front of everyone, lmao.
Also Mc piss me off. She should've at least gotten some of her money back and left her broke. Instead of being "understanding" Her having mother issue really fucked her up good.

I agree. Not a story I particularly enjoyed, but one definitely worth telling, if you get what I mean.

Also, "It only takes one day to die by my hand. It'll take sixty years to die in this place." is cold af.

It's what now? How the hell is a single-income lower-middle-class household supposed to save up that kind of dough in 6 years?! (Or, really, any dough at all) I guess things are different in China from North America?
(that said, the details of what the amount, um, amounts to are appreciated)

Not really. The chinese economy is experiencing a downturn into stagnation right now, with youth unemployment skyrocketing, a housing bubble that just burst (I vividly remember a photo of a whole city of half-build high-rise skeletons, abandoned mid-construction at the world press photo exhibit), a completely botched pandemic response, trade wars with all important nations besides Russia (which is basically a colony of theirs by now anyway) and an overall disfavourable demography. So things aren't going exactly splendid over there.

Perhaps I miscalculated; this was about the amount I of money I got in total over three years of my stipend in university (plus free rent for a dorm room) and I remember it as something you can get by on if frugal. Setting such amounts aside over the course of double the time with an actual job didn't seem far-fetched.

The art in the first half ... just gorgeous. This is a comedy, it has no business looking like Castlevania cover art in every panel. Page 6 especially is eyewatering Sheesh.

Here: http://dynasty-scans.com/chapters/eternal_meek_part_1

Is this link supposed to deliver a 301 redirect to completely unrelated Kitakubu Katsudou Kiroku ch. 25?

^I'm interested in that as well. A friend wanted some action serie to get into Yuri, but i didn't have much that fitted the criterias. (though my friend is older than your sister so adult content wasn't necesarily out of the question, just not the blatant fanservice shots or design, due to personal taste)

Well, assuming your friend's reaction to Isekai isn't to immediatly recoil in abject terror, I'd recommend Virgin Road, a.k.a. The Executioner and Her Way of Life. It's action packed, has a fairly interesting shounen-esque plot and can be perfectly enjoyed for something other than the yuri - which there is plenty of, and it's not subtle. It's also widely available, be it as LN, Manga, Anime or Audio Book.

(Anyhow, what I ended up gifting were concert tickets and Vol.1 of Dog & Scissors which was on her wishlist. I am very much confused.)

Now that I'm here again: anything with intersex representation? I can't believe the last time I read about that was Go Get a Roomie!

In re people (including myself) complaining about Windyfall recently: This one is better than Her Tactics to Get Friendly. Could have used some better TS, but as they're searching for a typesetter, that's fair.

this seemed a bit all over the place. maybe there's context i'm missing?

Doesn't help that the translation is pretty rough again, some parts barely make any sense.

Also looks like the speech bubbles could use some indicator on who is speaking. I haven't looked at the raws, but it was quite difficult to figure out who is who in the first place.

More Miku x Teto is always welcome.

...thinking of it, is this Age gap, or are we counting in Chimera years?

I think this new Pet Play tag would involve a lot of the artworks with people wearing collars/leashes, but it shouldn't apply to characters where the "collar" is actually a choker that is a part of their canon outfit. (UNLESS the character's choker is being used as a collar in a sexual way)
The Pet Play tag would also involve scenarios where a character is wearing a sort of harness or muzzle (again, not Pet Play if the accessory is a part of their normal outfit.)
Now, scenarios where a character thinks another character looks like a cute animal may or may not belong under Pet Play, depending on the "vibes" of the artwork and how the scenario continues after that moment. So, a case by case basis. Similarly, not ALL Animal Ears artwork belongs under the Pet Play tag, but some of it may qualify depending on what the characters are thinking about each other. Pet Play often has a theme of "ownership" but its totally possible for there to be artworks of two or more "pets" doing Pet Play with each other, so artworks shouldn't be ruled out for there being no clear "owner"/dominant/or top. Thank you for considering this request! It's nice to have people hear me out.
[*snip*]

I second this, as there are many cute pictures that somehow fall under BDSM under the current rules. So fwiw, I'm greatly in favour of it.

However, there are a two things I want to preemptively throw into the ring:
1.) How does this interact with the already existing Animalization tag? Beware of Dog for example is tagged as such.
2.) What about collar+leash in "normal" bondage contexts, e. g. here (NSFW)? What about this (SFW)? Imho being liberal in what you accept, it is going to be easier on the mods who have to evaluate the tags to allow every kind of leash. (Well, except this one :P)

And to add my own list of examples (there about three dozen more depending on my second point), all SFW:
30814, 8685, 29431, 20482, 31372, 31401, 28931, 27150, 25544, 29359 and 11687 with an ensuing discussion about what is and isn't pet play.

BTW, I googled the exchange rate, and apparently the amount that she stole is equivalent to about US$14,000. So she didn't exactly get rich off of this.

Excuse my nitpicking, that just happens what I based my entire personality around:

First of all, we need to account in inflation. Assuming the story takes place in the futuristic year of 2006 (based on her mother leaving in 1984) ¥117'600 would equal about ¥176'428, which is more like 24 grand. Additionally, roughly approximating living costs via the BigMac index, these have a 50~100% higher relative spending power. So whilst it might not seem much, it's a rather realistic estimate for what a single-income lower-middle class household can build in savings over 3 to 6 years.

Takahashi's facade is crumbling in the meanwhile - not just that she became mean (which means she does care about MC to some extent), but also slipped up when the Teacher returned through unknown means. (Y'know what I mean, or was that to meandering?) And as long as he/it isn't a rapist too, I consider this an upgrade.

Also I can't believe it is going to be this manga that finally gets me to buy Lenna's Inception.
