Incels complain constantly about straight women having too high of standards, when in actuality an alarming amount of women have abysmal standards, and they can’t even meet those.

The amount of shit women deal with from their inattentive man-child shit no-personality having ass husbands is crazy

Usually it's me just messing around with elements until a design I like comes out. Sometimes I have a general goal in mind but rarely does the finished product stick to it, then I make a narrative around the design. One day I wanted to make an Asian raver girl with hair like Revy and Adrian came out
This is specifically for the creator of original characters.

When it comes to making your original characters, what do you do in order to design them?

Do you make a mood board? Maybe get inspired by music for ideas?

How do you go about making your original characters?

It’s time to put Billie Eilish’s theory of property out to pasture, Richard Epstein and Max Raskin write.

You actually have to do things people want to vote for to win elections. I know we've been lesser eviling for so long that doesn't feel right to point out but you do in fact have to entice people with things beyond "we are morally better than our opposition" while murdering Palestinians

This is such a fascinating perspective and as someone who works in the realm of mental health I really want to dive in on it later because of how much it bugs me lol

Look I really want to just talk about my OCs and video games and shit but I'm a social worker, I can't turn off the politics and have an obligation to be informed as much as it drives me up the wall

‘One officer told me that I "had no chance of returning to Minnesota" and that "the best thing for (me] is self-deportation." …
She offered me $2600 to self-deport.
I refused.
I wanted to talk to my attorney.
They didn't tell me the judge had already ordered my release and return to Minnesota.’

Dudes who have been publicly calling for the destruction of garlic for a decade were sending Dracula letters like "yo thanks Dracula type B tasted great. Would love to talk about necks sometime" and the governor of Transylvania is like "look man that letter could have been about anything"
i am trying not to joke about the Epstein stuff because it's so horrible but there's also this ridiculous element where it's like... discovering Dracula is real, he's taken over human society at the highest levels, he's involved in tons of evil and also he's a huge dipshit

The older I get the more I love Raimi MJ and get sad that no other Spider-Man movies have had a romance as well done as those first 2 movies

By December 2022 I was almost ready to give up drawing for anything other than my book covers, as I wasn't having any fun with it.
Then I played the PS4 Spider-Man game and saw the Black Cat suit, and knew I had to draw it, and I remembered the style I had experimented with earlier that year.

I gotta say it is hilarious to me how Triple H unashamedly loves Asuka and Iyo Sky. Never in a million years would have seen him as a joshi mark while he was wrestling but he loves those women
