Hands are actually pretty weird in real life and other than the actress's right hand, which is right where the background has some geometric feature and looks gnarly, none are Too Bad if you account for image compression.
This on the background (especially the middle flat lump) is just... squiggles
Cropped part of the original image showing a table with "props" that look like brown shapes and lumps with nondescript swirls.

Where does it say the devs implemented the feedback though? The article says the devs asked Steam to reconsider, not that the devs changed anything.
Which aligns with the devs' faq about this saying they didn't get any detailed feedback.
Did Steam specify which content was problematic? No. Steam’s decision came without detailed feedback, and the ban notice did not cite any specific scenes or elements. For months we repeatedly asked what triggered the ban and received no answer. We also offered, unsuccessfully, to change any content deemed unfit, especially since the game was still early in development at the time of submission. Please see the rest of the FAQs for more detail on the characters and development process.

Heheheheh
Photo of a manul standing next to an irregular gray concrete wall, from the quoted tweet. The manul's stance and the way light and shadows appear in the image make the manul look like a fluffy bipedal creature resting its arm on the wall if you don't look at it too closely. I've drawn a crude silhouette over the picture highlighting it.

This is another cat.

I had a terrible fucking day and I'm 70% sure I am about to have a terrible fucking week of back/neck pain, migraines and expenses because cars fucking suck and I wish them all a very die.

Faster to wait for her to bring it than argue >Take wrong exit, end up back in hometown, lose 1h >Car stops working in middle of highway >Wait over an hour for tow truck >Tow truck takes me back to hometown >Back to square one. It's been 3h >Terrible migraine during all this >Father lends me his car >Do trip without issues >Father's car is obscenely big and barely fits in the apartment's garage

LMFAO, thanks Kinoko Nasu.

They let me bring the practice hurdy home and of course the first thing I do, after spending several hours trying to tune it and make it sound like not hell (I failed), is some nerd fucking shit.
I hope Yoko Shimomura can forgive me.

I know just enough about physics to realize I'm fucked if I try to understand anything about this.

My "Primary Language" and "App Language" in Bluesky settings are set to English. My "Content Languages" are set to English and Spanish.
Somehow, since this last weekend, the web client has decided to make my posts' language to default to Portuguese
Screenshot of this post as I write it. A prompt asking "Are you writing in English?" appears under the post. At the bottom right next to the character count, it says "Portuguese"

I am (not) sorry to inform you that it is 2011 again.

Fuck yes. Another victory for drugs.

Oh, uh... that's a... weird comment? #witchontheholynight
Screenshot of a Visual Novel screen (Witch On The Holy Night): "Despite the cold, she was not wearing a coat. She had no purse either, which was rather strange as a woman and her purse were never far apart. Not that Soujyuro knew this truth quite yet."

Look I just want to play as the best Etrian Odyssey class in every game ever, it's not my fault Capcom needed sixteen years to finally develop switch axe into a proper Drive Blade.
Pictures of "Imperial" class characters from Etrian Odyssey IV. Boys and girls carrying a big sword with techy bits that can make big explosions and a heavy armor with no helmet, also with techy bits, that gives them the appearance of a mech.

Poco tarda el meapilas en amenazar con volverse reaccionario. Así me gusta, las máscaras fuera.

All this totenkopf tattoo thing reminds me when I was like 20 years old, super into Blade of the Immortal, wanting to cosplay a non-teenager, wanting a kimono, being an edgy shit who skirted what's acceptable, and looked at Manji's swastika (manji) kimono for a long while and went "hmm... yeah nah".
Black and shite drawing of Manji from Blade of the Immortal, showcasing the back of his kimono with a giant swastika ("manji" in japanese) on his back.

Babe wake up, new avatar.
Finished version of the previous portrait. There are some more details. The person now wears thin rectangular glasses and the ponytail is slightly less messy and held by an orange hairtie. The image background is abstract thick green and light lines making an angular pattern.

Every once in a while I reread some of my backloggd reviews and I still think these two excerpts from my Dawntrail review are the best things I'll ever write. (Low bar, really, but)
"Even during Endwalker it's arguable whether you have any agency beyond being the unwilling ex-wife of Zenos" "Fight me, I will get physical about this and I am incapable of regret"

Three panel comic. Top panel says "ACTION RPG BLEACH" and depicts a person with a cartoony expression like old school cartoon wolves when they see a sexy woman and their eyes pop out of their faces. Middle panel says "iOS and Android" and depicts an emaciated, wrinkled head, eyesockets empty, with a cloud of dust in the shape of a skull escaping the open mouth. Bottom panel says "through crunchyroll" and depicts the left side of a person putting a revolver to their temple, somber and covered in shadows.

Funnily enough, I think this version without color (except for the circles under the eyes) or lineart (other than the ear) looks way more like me lmao.
Same portrait as before but without color or lineart. The lack of specific details makes your brain fill it with more realistic proportions and create a more true image of what the subject may look like.

Still a bunch of things to solve (that jawline is giving me body image issues, I am NOT this hot) but I'm happy about how it's coming along. I especially like that I managed to make my hair actually look like my hair.
A more finished version of the drawing in the previous post. Stubbly beard has more definition and there's a long goatee hanging from the chin. The eyebrows are now filled and look properly hairy. Hair has materialized on the head and there's a very sketch-looking low ponytail going around a side of the neck. The hair just above the forehead hangs down covering the hairline and goes behind the ear into the ponytail.

Fun fact: I wanted to be able to zoom in and out without releasing the pen so I had to plug in my motherfucking Razer Nostromo, that I bought 13 years ago to play LoL and Strike Vector on an armchair that I had to use after breaking the ikea kitchen chair I had for my desk lmfao.

I've had the bad brain these last two days so I went and set up my decade-and-a-half tablet on Linux, to try and draw myself (trace and barely edit a couple things) as a character I've always identified with.
This is my One Art Thing for the year and I feel good about it, I may even "finish" it?
Drawing of one of the Etrian Odyssey 2 gunners. It's a mature-looking man with shoulder-length black hair and thick eyebrows; a serious, tired look on his eyes, a big, rectangular nose and sporting a stubble. A work in progress of a portrait drawing clearly traced from the Etrian Odyssey 2 gunner illustration. Some details are different. The nose is more triangular but still big. The eyebrows have a bend now. There are folds drawin in the ear and the stubble is slightly different. The eyes look exactly as tired and there's dark circles under them.
